Chapter 13
"Can't you smell him yet?" Sevriel growled at Torian as they drove around town in hopes that, while hanging his head out the window like a dog, Torian would pick up Devi's scent.
"This is silly, there has to be a better way of doing this," even so, Abel still couldn't help but laugh at Torian as the Drakatra nearly drowned in his own hair as the wind billowed it around.
"I told you to tie it back before we left, remember? Why must you always be so stubborn?" Abel asked, trying to sound as patronizing as possible so that Torian would forget he was being laughed at and could complain about being told what to do instead.
"Are you sure it was okay to leave Triana with Seth? She's sweet and will do her best, but she is just a little girl," Sevriel pointed out. He slammed on the brakes as a car cut him off. Honking the horn, he gave the other driver the finger.
"How un-angelic of you," Abel shook his head with a grin. Sevriel burst out laughing as Torian choked, having his head slammed around in the window. It was easier if they tried to keep things light, tried to forget the severity of why they were out patrolling the streets at four am on a Saturday night.
"Pull over, Sevriel, this is the place where he was taken," Abel grasped Torian's hand in his own, needing the support for a moment.
"Do you think you can pick up the scent of the tires, maybe, and then track that?" Sevriel asked, raising an eyebrow at him.
"I've never done it before, so I really don't know," Torian slid out of the vehicle, crawling around on the ground as he tried to sort out which set of tire prints was the one connected to the remnants of Devi's scent.
"Anything yet, puppy?" Sevriel snorted.
"Fuck you, feathers!" Torian roared, snapping his teeth at Sevriel's ankles so that the angel had to jump back to avoid being bitten.
"I'm not sure if this is it, but we should try to follow it just in case," Torian frowned up at them, wondering just how they were going to do this.
"I'll have to stay on the ground to keep the scent, are you two going to drive slowly beside me or walk?" He really wasn't sure how this would work.
"We'll drive incase we need to get out of there fast," Abel said.
