(Alaric's POV)
As the person I was chasing after disappeared, I shifted to my primary goal, which was to find Brave as soon as possible.
So, I gather my thoughts, perceived my surroundings calmly and inhaled the air which was filled with rain and moisture around me. The scent of Brave's blood was high in the air because the rain had picked up again and the breeze was carrying it towards me.
I followed the path, where the smell was coming from and soon I noticed that the pathway would lead me to the back side of the pack house, where the rose garden was situated and also the lake.
'The lake? Alaric, the lake. Do you remember? Nora mentioned earlier on the dining table that she would take out mate to the lake for a walk after dinner. She is going to talk about that identity thing with Myra. For what I perceive, the dinner must have ended by now and they must be heading towards the lake.' Alex's words echoed in my mind.
