Chapter 23: Damon POV (Mature content warning) I went into panic mode the moment I realized I could not link with Clara. I kept trying to push through the barrier but it was not working. I thought I would go insane with worry. Even stranger, I thought I felt wolfsbane in my system. It was a horrid feeling, like ice in your veins. I wondered if someone was feeding wolfsbane to Clara, forcing the sensation into my body through our mate bond. It only slowed me down a little, not much. Jay and the rest of the pack jumped into action, helping me search for her. After we had turned Rupterville upside down without a single trace I went to her family to let them know what was going on. My parents accompanied me for this uncomfortable meeting. As expected James, Bobby, and Billy did not take it
