All my excitement disappeared

As it was obvious that I broke the rule, all my excitement disappeared into the thin air and a loom of fear immediately overtook me. My elder brother and my cousin had already begun searching for me. At last they found me on the way -- to where?? . With a lantern on (in) his hand, my brother was obviously overjoyed to find me but for some unknown reasons
he concealed his expression (I would write it: he didn't let his feelings known. Instead, he pretended to be serious and rebuked me for breaking the rule. But I knew inside his heart he was lamenting (commiserating -- better IMO) that he had missed the match (in his heart).

"You are going to have some (beating) (beating?? If you have to use that word, IMO, the verb has to be 'get' not 'have' and the plural of that word might need to be used) today. Mother and father are tearing (out) their hairs wondering where you might have gone" he said. I was worried to the bone and (but) did not utter a word.
