Wolves, Maces, And Blood novel Chapter 93

Inside the safe room it was dark and visibility was poor. When Sean walked in the door, he immediately released his dark energy and sensed everything in the room. Suddenly, a familiar voice came from Sean’s front left, “Dad, help me…”

“I feel so bad, Mom. Where’s Dad?”

“Did dad give us up?”

“Mom, will you get Daddy back? I will be very good, very good, I promise not to upset dad…”

The voice was small, faint, and indistinct.

It was clearly a delirium of dreams.

Sean’s dark energy was released, and his perception was amazing! When his ears moved, the faint voice seemed magnified a thousand times. Word by word, they beat hard against his eardrums.

“Phyllis!”

For a moment, Sean’s face changed dramatically and his heart trembled with joy and sadness. He followed the sound and looked ahead to his left, catching Phyllis on the couch in the faint light reflected from the porch.

Whoosh!

Without hesitation, he darted to the couch, bent down, and scooped her up, “I’m sorry, Phyllis! It’s dad's fault! Dad is late!”

Luckily!

Phyllis was still there! She wasn’t transferred to another location by Luis Sanchez!

But Sean knew something was wrong the moment he held Phyllis in his arms.

Phyllis had a fever!

Her tiny body was so hot that Sean could feel the heat through his clothes.

His pupils shrank and his heart thumped. Sean freed a hand and touched Phyllis’s forehead. His face turned horribly pale.

Very hot!

Amazingly hot!

According to Sean, Phyllis’s temperature was definitely over 39 degrees Celsius!

This body temperature, if present in ordinary people for a long time, even adults could not tolerate. Not to mention a four-year-old like Phyllis.

If it was not done properly, it might affect the brain and normal development!

Even…

Sean didn’t dare to think of anything worse!

He had no time to think about it!

“Bastard!”

“Damn it!”

Sean suppressed his anger, put Phyllis back on the couch, and held her hand. A dark energy slipped through Phyllis’s body.

Dark energy was a double-edged sword that could kill as well as save lives.

Although Sean was not a professional military doctor, he knew a lot of lifesaving medical techniques because of years of fighting on the battlefield. He could cure all but the most specialized incurable diseases!

“No, it’s…”

As the dark energy poured into her body, Sean felt her condition through the dark energy, and his face became worse and worse.

His face was as pale as death!

Sean was surprised to discover that Phyllis’s elevated body temperature was not a fever, a disease, or poisoning. It was her blood.

From head to toe, Phyllis’s blood seemed to be boiling and roaring!

This situation was very strange!

Sean immediately thought of a possibility, but he wasn’t sure.

In panic, he increased the instillation of dark energy, trying to resist the roar of blood with dark energy, to forcibly cool the blood.

“Dad…”

Fine beads of sweat formed on Phyllis’s face, neck, and body. Her another hand unconsciously grasped the corner of Sean’s coat. Her eyes were still closed, but crystal-clear tears flowed from her eyes, mixed with cold sweat, and wet her young cheeks. Her little mouth was open and she was delirious, “Dad, is that you?”

“You finally came to my rescue, right?”

“You're a super hero and you’re not gonna give up mom and me, are you?”

Her weak voice was like a delicate little hand, plucking the strained strings of Sean’s heart. The simple words reached Sean’s ears, and they touched him indescribably.

Before he knew it, he was in tears…

Earlier in the Peace Cemetery, in front of Nicola’s gravestone, Sean held back his tears even when he saw his mother’s picture.

He tried not to cry!

But right now, right here, with his daughter, with Phyllis calling, Sean couldn’t hold back his tears again, hot tears streaming down his resolute face.

Phyllis was so good!

She was so good that it hurt!

When they first met yesterday morning, Phyllis was being bullied by a group of young boys led by Lucas Moore. She cried her face off, but she was bravely defending her father, insisting he was a super hero.

It sounded like a joke…

In front of Cecilia, Matthew, and Marcia, she showed her bright and lively side. She almost used her imaginary “super hero” dad as a slogan.

She went on and on and on.

It seemed that if she said enough, she would believe it herself.

It seemed that if she did not say it often, say it every day, say it steadily, she was afraid that she would forget it. She was afraid that she, too, might doubt her mother’s words.

But dreams wouldn’t fool you!

Now Phyllis was in danger, feverish and unconscious, calling for daddy more often than she called for mom. She was afraid that her father would desert her, leave her…

Her longing for her father was evident.

How could Sean stand this?

Every time She said “dad”, Sean felt more guilty and cried even more. Tears gathered on Sean’s chin, dripped onto Sean’s blood-stained chest, and melted with the still-dry blood.

The tears were Sean’s responsibility and guilt.

The blood was Sean’s anger and hatred.

It all started with that plot five years ago. Cecilia was innocent of the conspiracy, Phyllis even more so.

How guilty Sean felt for them, and how much he hated the three families and the Mason family of the Capital City!

Hot tears must be washed with dripping blood!

Half an hour!

It took Sean half an hour to inject Phyllis with a massive dose of dark energy to calm her roaring blood and bring her temperature down to normal.

But Sean was very clear that this cooling was only a temporary remedy, not a permanent one. She could relapse at any moment.

“Phyllis, don’t worry. Dad’s here. Everything’s gonna be fine.”

Sean picked her up, brushed her sweaty hair, and walked out of the room. Logan Garcia was still waiting at the door of the safe room. When Sean came out, he said quickly, “Mr. Mason, do you…”

“You are…”

Logan Garcia wanted to ask Sean for forgiveness by complimenting him for helping Sean find his daughter. But before he could, he saw Sean’s face and froze.

Sean was as white as a sheet!

And his eyes were red, and his deep eyes were bloodshot now. He had obviously cried!

In his arms, Phyllis was unconscious, her hair and clothes wet with cold sweat.

“Mr. Mason, please spare me! Please!”

A moment’s shock was followed by intense fear. Logan Garcia’s legs gave way, then he flopped and knelt at Sean’s feet, “After we kidnapped your daughter at noon, we handed her over to Mr. Luis.”

“Only Mr. Luis and Mr. Reid have access to this safe room. I…”

“I don’t know what they did to your daughter!”

He kept nodding.

He was afraid Sean would take out his anger on him.

Sean asked directly, “Where’s Luis Sanchez?”

“Well…”

Logan Garcia said, “I’ve been here watching out for you, so…”

Sean said coldly, “Call him.”

“Okay!”

Logan Garcia immediately pulled out his cellphone, shaking, and called Luis Sanchez. A moment later, a familiar electronic tone came from the phone, “Sorry, the number you dialed is power off, please redial…”

Before it finished, a strong wind blew by him. Logan Garcia looked up and saw Sean disappeared in the corridor. He reached up and wiped the sweat from his brow and sank down on the cold floor, nearly frightened out of his wits.

Two black-clad bodyguards stood in front of the main hall of the villa. Suddenly there was a ghost. Before the two black-clad bodyguards came to their senses, one of them was kicked by Sean and passed out on the spot.

Sean asked, holding Phyllis with one arm and the other tightly around the neck of the black-clad bodyguard, “Where’s Luis Sanchez?”

“You, who are you…”

The black-clad bodyguard tried to struggle, but to no avail. Sean’s hand, like a pair of iron tongs, was clinging to his neck. The slightest exertion made his face turn red, his veins bulge, and he felt suffocated.

“Answer my question!”

Sean said impatiently, “Or you’ll die.”

The breath of death swept in. The bodyguard did not dare to resist, so he stretched out his hand to the building next to him and said with difficulty, “Mr. Luis Sanchez is on the third floor.”

With a twist, Sean broke the neck of the black-clad bodyguard.

Third floor, master bedroom.

The wide, fluffy bed was empty. There was the sound of running water in the adjoining bathroom. A shadowy figure could be seen through the snow glass.

Bang!

Suddenly, the bathroom door was kicked open. Sean rushed in without hesitation, and a woman screamed hysterically from the bathroom, “No!”

The sound pierced the air at more than 100 decibels.

Sean put his hand around the woman’s neck and carried her out of the bathroom, even though she was naked. He slammed her to the bedroom floor and looked down at her with cold eyes, then he asked, “Where’s Luis Sanchez?”

“You, you…”

The woman was hurt badly by the fall. She unconsciously put her hands on her chest, tightened her legs and looked at Sean in horror.

Sean snorted, “You only get one chance to answer the question, and if I ask it a second time, you’re dead.”

“Luis, he left…”

The woman shuddered and said, “About an hour ago, Luis and I were having sex in bed…”

“Halfway through, he got a phone call and hurriedly put on his clothes and left. He left in a hurry, and went out the back door, as if to avoid being seen.”

“And he told me not to tell anyone.”

Sean asked, “Where is he going?”

“I don’t know.”

The woman shook her head wildly, “Judging from his flustered appearance, he must be in serious trouble. How could he have told me where he was?”

Sean turned and left.

Outside the villa.

After cleaning up the scene in Peace Cemetery, Luke Young was worried about things in Elegant Villa and brought his men here as soon as possible. But he dared not rush in at will, so he just waited at the gate.

After ten minutes of waiting, he saw Sean coming out of the house with Phyllis in his arms. Luke Young breathed a sigh of relief and immediately went up to meet him. “That’s great! That’s great!”

“By god, your daughter was found safe and sound.”

Yeah, she was found finally!

But not safe and sound!

Phyllis’s fever had temporarily subsided, though her face was not very rosy. It looked like she was just falling asleep in Sean’s arms. Luke Young asked without thinking, “Marcia was worried about Phyllis, so she spent the afternoon at the police station waiting for news, and we finally got her home, but…”

After a moment’s hesitation, Luke Young continued, “When Miss Moore came home from work, she already knew that Phyllis was missing, and she was frantically looking for me, for you.”

“Look, Mr. Mason, now that we’ve found her, shall we let them know?”

It was 7:00 p.m., and Phyllis disappeared a little after 11:00 p.m. More than seven hours had passed by now. Marcia, Matthew, and Cecilia must be freaking out!

Sean’s cell phone was off, otherwise he would have been blown up!

It was just, the way Phyllis was…

“Tell them.”

With a sigh, Sean handed Phyllis to Luke Young and said, “tell them to go straight to the hospital. I need you to take Phyllis to city Hospital right now, get Phyllis the best doctor you can, and get her a full checkup right away.”

“Hospital?”

Luke Young took a second look at Phyllis and said with concern, “Mr. Mason, did you mean that your daughter…”

“Cut the crap and go!”

Sean’s face turned cold as Luke Young grabbed Phyllis and asked, “What about you?”

“Luis Sanchez ran away.”

Sean snorted, “I’m going over to the Sanchez house to meet Owen Sanchez!”

Then he strode across the street to Mulsanne, opened the door, got into his car, and drove off to the Sanchez Villa, where Owen Sanchez lived.

Sean’s eagerness to find Luis Sanchez wasn’t just about revenge for Phyllis.

More importantly, Reid came from the Capital City and only had contact with Luis Sanchez. Now that Reid was dead, Sean must find out what Reid and Luis Sanchez did to Phyllis as soon as possible!

If they were able to give Phyllis such a vision, did they have a cure?

It all fell to Luis Sanchez!

Even if there was no cure, if he knew what had caused it, he could cure it!

He drove so fast that he ran many red lights. With a screech of brakes, Mulsanne pulled up to the front door of the Sanchez Villa where Owen Sanchez lived!
