.~Aiden's POV~
The rain had stopped, it was six o'clock in the morning and the clouds were still dark in the sky.
I had gathered the warriors and the plan was to scour every inch of our surrounding grounds outside the border.
Whoever kidnapped Cassy couldn't have been far and they wouldn't have gotten far during the storm.
"Aiden!" Gabby came running down the stairs.
"You're not coming with us." I said.
She rolled her eyes and clenched her jaw.
"Here, Mr.Maler gave this to me yesterday. It belonged to Cassy," She handed me a scarf. It would help.
"Thank you," I said and grabbed it from her. Our fingers graced each other and I saw the little jump she did upon contact.
One day I would turn all her bad memories to dust and replace them with the best ones she could possibly imagine.
"Be safe," she said.
