Chapter Eleven
âHave you seen Maurelle anywhere?â Brokk asked Ryker as they left the mess hall and crossed the quad to their first class. Typically, Maurelle joined them and tormented Ryker with her stunning smiles and luscious curves.
Maurelle hadnât been in class or at meals for three days now and Titania said she never stopped by the infirmary the other day like she told them. Initially, Ryker dismissed his concern as part of his obsession, but now he knew there was a reason his skin prickled, and his hands itched to do something to find her for days now.
Both he and Brokk stopped by her dorm room, but her roommates were too busy flirting to tell them much beyond the fact that she hadnât been there for days.
âI havenât seen her, and I refuse to face those soul sucking females in her dorm again,â Ryker replied.
Brokk shook his head and didnât laugh or make some crass comment about cozying up to the females to get some action. âI donât like how she suddenly disappeared without a word.â
Ryker actually liked his dormmates, but he kept his feelings about the academy, specifically the staff and human control and influence over Fae, close to his chest. Maurelleâs sudden disappearance didnât come as that much of a surprise given everything they discovered and went through since their collection months ago.
âDo you think they let her go home to be with her family?â Ryker asked, testing Brokkâs reaction.
The male scrunched up his face and stopped in the middle of the grass where they wouldnât be overheard. âHell no. Thereâs something off about the entire situation. I donât know whatâs going on, and I have a feeling I havenât noticed too much thatâs going on around here. If anyone other than Maurelle went missing I would have ignored it, but thereâs something special about Maurelle.â
Rykerâs jealousy reared its ugly head hearing Brokk talk about how he thought Maurelle was special. His jaw clenched and his hands balled into fists. âWe need to find her. Have you ever tried a locator spell?â
Brokk cocked his head to the side and considered Rykerâs question. âThatâs some pretty advanced stuff. I have no idea how to even begin.â
âThen we need to sneak into the restricted section of the library and find some books on the subject,â Ryker suggested.
The expansive lawn lead to the cliffs above the ocean on one side and the dorms along another the elemental leagues bordered the rest of the academy. Ryker loved the academy, just not what seemed like their intent with the students.
Heâd seen too many arrive wary and with questions only to see them become compliant and agreeable within days. He knew the food made them more compliant, and not just because Shineah told him the purpose. He felt his mind go fuzzy and his emotions become blunted any time he ate.
It had become habit for him to focus on Maurelle and the burning need to make matters right for the Fae people. The anger
