The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 564 - SCRAM!

Hope bit her lips as she spoke slowly. Her eyes locked on Kace warily. "Because I know what you did…" Hope could see how Kace's eyes clouded with fear, shock and all the anxiety that crept in his heart now.

"What had I done?" Kace never spoke so rigidly like this to Hope before, but now, he was talking to her as if Hope was a stranger.

Hope didn't know if she made a right decision to tell him about this, but she wanted him to come clean to her, it wouldn't help him or their relationship if Kace kept pretending there was nothing wrong and if he was okay all the time.

"I know the reason behind the curse that you got before." Hope forced herself to talk more. "You don't have to pretend that you are fine all the time, if you are not."

Kace glared at Hope and this was the first time he did this. Hope was slightly taken aback with what she saw.

A few minutes ago, he was holding her as if she was the most precious thing for him and now he looked at her as if she was his sworn enemy. Was that possible?

"Kace…" Hope's voice slightly trembled under those black eyes, apparently, the beast wanted to resurface, but he held him back like usual. Nevertheless, Hope was afraid of him now, whether he was in control over his beast or not. "Kace… you're scaring me."

Kace gritted his teeth, his body was shivering as his fist clenched and unclenched. "Go…"

He didn't want to do something that he would regret later, though he knew he wouldn't hurt her, never in a million lifetimes would he do that, but Kace didn't want Hope to see this part of him.

He didn't want to ruin his image in Hope's eyes, the Kace who was only sunshine and smile.

"SCRAM!" Kace roared and in an instant his heart broke into million pieces when he watched how Hope ran for her life, as if there was a despicable predator who was chasing after her life.

Kace just needed some time alone, he didn't mean to yell at her.

Now, when Hope was not there anymore and he got what he wanted, the pain and regret suffocated him even more. His heart caved in with remorse.

The regrets for what he had done to Hope.

"ARGH!" Kace punched the wall beside him and left a hole as big as his fist. He really wanted to hurt himself, so he could lift a little bit of pain in his chest.

His hand was bleeding, but it only lasted for a second before it healed again, even though Kace wished to feel more pain.

"You ruined my house."

There was a child-like voice that sounded from behind Kace. He didn't realize there was another creature near him because he was too focused on what he felt.

Kace snapped his head toward the source of the voice and found a little girl, around seven years old, holding an ugly doll, which was only twice as big as Kace's palm, looking at him with her innocent eyes.

"You make a hole in my house," Bree talked again as she frowned at the hole that Kace made. "You have to fix it," she demanded.

The little girl didn't know what she was facing right now. A half insane beast with a crazy mind and an unstable fickle mood, wasn't a good creature to talk to.

Ignoring the danger that lurked her, she kept talking. "Mother said, if you broke something you have to fix it."

However, from inside the room, there was a screech sound that called on the girl's name in panic. "Bree!"

A woman appeared with her panic expression and in no time scooped the little girl into her embrace as she took a few steps back in fear of Kace.

Kace's smile was filled with derision, not because of the woman's reaction, but because of himself.

"What happened?" Ian's hurried footsteps echoed when he approached Kace and Mrs. Lori, who was holding her daughter protectively, staring at Kace with worry.

Behind Ian, Ethan and Lana followed. Despite her face being slightly pale, Lana looked better than yesterday when she couldn't wake up at all.

It proved that Carina's spell did its magic and in other words, it also confirmed that Lana's life was bound to Kace. historical

Whenever Kace was hurt greatly, Lana's life would also be in danger. This fact made Kace sick. At this point, everything seemed so wrong to him.

"Who did this!?" Ian almost screamed when he watched a big hole on the wall.

Bree, who wasn't affected by the tension in the air, raised her small hand and pointed her tiny finger at Kace. "He did it," she said innocently.

Mrs. Lori hastily grabbed her daughter's hand, stopping her from pointing at the angry lycan. She looked at her guest with wide eyes.

"Why did you do that?" Ian tilted his head, so dense to understand the situation.

That question earned a slap behind his back from Ethan and Lana stepped forward when she was aware of the hostility that radiated from Kace's being.

Lana was not sure about what was going on, yet she had her own guess. There was something that triggered Kace for being very hostile like this.

For someone who just woke up a few hours ago, she missed many information about what was going on when she was not around.

"Kace, do you want to talk?" Lana took one step at time, she didn't want to rush him or make him feel cornered. "You can talk to me."

Kace glowered at Lana when she came closer to him.

He and his beast didn't need her, they wanted their mate. Kace wanted Hope. The way Hope looked at him before she ran away, didn't settle well with him.

That was Kace's biggest fear, for having Hope to hate him.

Lana received the cue as she stopped walking and just stood there.

"Where is Hope?" Ethan asked, they needed her in times like this.
