Chapter 827 - Unforeseen Occurrence (1) (1/2)
Parker was picking cotton flowers in the village when his heart suddenly palpitated. His body trembled, and he looked up.
“Qingqing!”
He rushed back home with the bag of cotton flowers. When he didn’t see Bai Qingqing at home, he felt a stronger feeling that something was amiss.
He was about to dash out of the stone castle when he noticed from the corner of his eyes that Curtis seemed perfectly fine. He hesitated and didn’t say anything. He just turned to go out.
If Qingqing was in any danger, she could summon Curtis. Since she didn’t, she should be just looking for him.
Parker had two leads. Firstly, there were Bai Qingqing’s footprints. Secondly, there was the spiritual connection that mates shared.
For efficiency, Parker chose the second method. That was why he didn’t notice any lead on his way.
It wasn’t until he didn’t manage to find Bai Qingqing even after leaving the village that he realized that she was in danger.
It’d be delaying time to go back to find leads and to inform Curtis. Parker let out a furious bellow and ran even faster.
When Bai Qingqing was a sufficient distance away, Curtis also noticed that something was amiss.
He searched around and realized that Parker, Bai Qingqing, and An’an were nowhere to be seen.
Curtis was instantly enraged. He uncontrollably turned into his full beast form and charged out of the village.
“Howl—”
When the leopard cubs met him, they raised their heads and called out at him.
When Curtis saw them, his body paused for a moment, and his fury eased up a little.
The children were still at home. Snow wouldn’t leave them behind. He could have misunderstood things. Snow didn’t abandon him.
Curtis’s snake figure quickly disappeared from the leopard cubs’ vision. They exchanged a few baffled glances and started talking amongst themselves.
Eldest said: [Did Curtis go out to hunt? Howl—]
Second said: [It should be. Let’s go back home to wait for the food. Howl—]
