Tengen's Pov
"Lord Tengen! Please please she was suppose to be back less in a week please let me go look for her." My heart was already racing a mile away, and I had to keep my panic and anxiety at bay, if I was full blown crying it would just blow Suma into more full blown hysterical crying and sobs like she had been doing. Hina held her sobbing form gently onto her chest shushing her softly stroking at her hair. 

I was worried that she was gonna make herself pass out with non stop worry, if it wasn't someone by the front door, or sitting outside it was someone pacing growing more anxious as each day went by.

Makio had a very stern angry expression on her face while gazing at me to the fullest.

"Suma love... I promise I'm going okay but you are making the girls cry too.. It's gonna be okay alright I'm going now." I ordered out, I stopped Makio before she could step forward.

"Alone Makio it's too dangerous okay?" She growled more tears leaking from her eyes angry sons trembling from her.

"Our wife is missing Tengen I'm going with you." She cracked out, my expression soften yet I knew there was no full arguing with her, nodding, I turned back to face Suma and Hina for a moment, I didn't wanna leave any of them in this current state they were in.

"Will both stay here and keep an eye out if she comes back while you are gone. You have my word." Hina smiled my way sadly still cradling Suma's sobbing body, with their okay, me and Makio were quick to take off out the door both of us bolting down the path out of the estate. With how quick we were darting and running down each path we would arrive into the town in less time then any speed I had formed.

I activated my hearing as far as it would travel focusing on all the deep rumbling sounds, landing into a rough crouch first at the entrance of the town fluttering my eyes open for a moment.

"Can you hear her heartbeat! Anything?" I shook my head with a deep scowl standing back up firmly on my legs.

"No I can not which means she isn't here in the town. I can't sense anything actually... I have a really bad feeling Makio." Her eyes narrowed my way, as she wiped at her cheeks roughly.

"She isn't dead, nor will she be announced dead until I see her dead body in my eyes Lord Tengen." I wiped at my own eyes roughly stepping into the path, it was quite faint but sounds were like memories in a way, so even though it happened days ago I could still hear reflects of a battle.

"She was fighting here a few days ago I can hear that even though it's faint." I informed Makio, shifting my eyes away. I heard a small little gasp noise causing me confusion just to see a male coming my way.

"Lord Uzui? I've been waiting for your arrival.." I narrowed my own eyes still exhaling harshly.

"I had sent one of my wives here around last week. Her hair is large with hints of orange shade highlights, brown skin, beautiful." His head nodded very quickly at my words, clamping his hands roughly around something.

"Yes and she helped us so much... The men were arrested in no less then two days. Her fighting skills were quite a sight to see." I found myself smiling proudly, Makio had a faint smile on her face.

"Do you know where she might have gone off too?" I asked firmly, he gave quite a startled stare, nibbling at his lower lip.

"Did she not return home? That's odd because the demon attacks stopped sometime last week as well. Quite early, but I do believe I have something that belongs to her. Like she was off in a rush, they were left at the inn." He stepped forward towards me, dropping off the two orange shapes earrings in my palm.

My whole body tensed up fast turning back to stare at Makio who now wasn't holding in her composer anymore and covered her mouth letting a loud sob out, starting to cry rough like.

"She wouldn't take those off Lord Tengen! We gave those to her as a gift something's wrong what if someone took her." I flashed the man a apologetic smile mumbling a thank you to him, I locked my arm around her shaking form urging her off to the side.

"Makio... I need you to calm down for me my sweet alright, because I'm freaking out now too. We can't think the worse, she not dead I would feel it in my heart, you would too. For now we keep looking for her as if she is alive. Stop thinking the worse for me. I'll keep the other mission on slight hold because this is more important." She kept her head kept more firmly onto my side nodding weakly a few times.

I opened my palm to stare at the earrings the worry still staying across my face. I knew it wasn't a wise choice sending you off Oriane... But you looked so happy doing something you wanted now. You broke your promise... But I know it wasn't on purpose.
