The revelation that his aunt wasn't there hit Jaegar like a physical blow. Then where was she? Questions nagged him, and the uncertainty about his aunt crept up in his mind. From the moment he arrived, the women of the spire did nothing but scorn him.
He had been patient, to learn about his aunt and to see her. But now they are saying she wasn't. Pierre was sure that his aunt was under his master's care; then why would she let them send her away when she knew how much she meant to Jaegar?
Something was way off, and he wanted to meet his master.
An explosive aura blasted from him, the force of it causing the guard women to stumble backward.
Jaegar closed his eyes, enhancing his magical senses in a desperate attempt to locate Angelina within the Spire's walls. But no matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find a trace of her presence.
The realization that his aunt truly wasn't there caused Jaegar's temper to flare even hotter.
