Ruby POV:
We headed out at daybreak in accordance with the plan and drove throughout the day.
Xavier and Axel repeatedly tried calling Natalie, but the call kept going to voicemail. It didn't fill me with confidence that she was all right. I was terrified that we might return to find a house filled with dead wolves.
We barely spoke to each other. I assumed Xavier and Axel were lost in their own thoughts, just like I was.
At around 5 pm, we started looking for a motel to avoid traveling through the night. Axel took his own room, while Xavier and I shared one.
We might have wished we could continue to travel at night, but that s**t wasn't going to happen. Not while we still knew so little about the bloodsuckers. At least Xavier and Axel now knew their scent, but what good would that do
