The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 960 - IN THAT CASE, YOU HAVE TO HELP ME

Upon hearing that, Kace gritted his teeth. He could care less about those people that he just knew by name, but how could he let something happen to Lana's son? Moreover he had not even seen the baby yet, since he was busy handling things regarding the war after the massacre.

Kace couldn't do anything for her when she needed help the most and she had to leave like that, under such disturbing circ.u.mstances.

It was not completely Torak's fault either, no one could be blamed fully for that disaster. However, it was all different from what they had been doing to their own people now, in order to keep their mate's safe. Though it sounded right for them to do so, their conscience still told them that they were starting to lose their minds for actually doing that to their own people.

They shouldn't do it, but it was just… they couldn't help it. Their fear of losing their mates was far greater than their conscience's reminders which wouldn't stop echoing inside their heads.

"Eddard, Lana's son, is there too. If something happen like the vampires did attack that place, I don't think that with the number of warriors we left there it will be possible to hold the situation." Calleb watched as Kace's expression changed and he knew he had said the right thing. "It will be a slaughter."

However, despite all the emotions that flashed on Kace's face, he didn't tell him anything as an answer to the Beta's question about what they had to do, or what they should do about them, yet.

Seeing that Kace didn't seem to speak any soon, Calleb sighed and resigned himself. He stood up and was about to leave the room, but before that, he turned around and faced Kace.

"My mate is taking care of Eddard there, though I will not be able to do anything in my current situation, just like you, I too want to be with my mate if you chose not to do anything about it." Calleb shrugged his shoulders. "I just want you to know."

It was almost as if Calleb said that he wouldn't listen to whatever order that he would receive from the Donovans if it was not about rescuing the people in that place, to rescue his mate, Rossie… historical

Even if did not make any sense just as it sounded, Calleb knew that he would do that, ignore the Alpha's order if he had to. Since he couldn't feel his beast, it would be easier to disobey them, right?

Calleb's decision was crazy, but so was the Donovans'. And the Beta just wanted what the three of them wanted…

Be with his mate…

However, before Calleb could leave the room, Kace spoke in a deep and clear voice, "Gather all the Alphas." Calleb was about to sigh in relief when he heard Kace next words.

"And tell my brothers to come too."

"You know they will not come."

"I will kick their a**, if they don't."

Calleb raised his brows. "Really?" he asked doubtfully.

And then he saw a smirk at the corner of Kace's lips for the first time, since the beginning of these hellish days, since the guardian angels fell unconscious. "However, you have to help me."

Calleb chuckled lightly along with Kace, and they knew everything would be all right if they executed their little thought right. "I don't think I will be much of help, though."

==============

Bree walked into the dungeon after confirming that the lycan warriors weren't paying any attention to her, after all, she was just a little girl and no one would think that she would sneak around in this place.

After that, Bree walked down the stairs and found the prison cells, where they held Lord Bayle captive.

She knew that she shouldn't be here and she would get herself into trouble if someone saw her here, but she couldn't help it.

The little girl bowed down to her own curiosity which got the best of her and given to that tender age of hers, she had less considerations about the predicament she might land into, if she met with the fire dragon lord without anyone's knowledge

Bree didn't know why but her curiosity was piqued ever since she saw the dragon lord.

"What are you doing here again, little girl?" A hoarse and harsh voice from one of the prison cells could be heard and Bree knew that voice belonged to the dragon lord.

"Playing," Bree answered and then she stood in front of Lord Bayle's cell. She stood as far as she could from that cell, but not too far enough, so she could still see the dragon lord who was sitting down on the cold ground, leaning his back against the wall. "You look old," she said without any particular meaning, she just told him what she saw.

The chuckle from Lord Bayle echoed through the walls when he heard the little girl's innocent confession.

"I think I should thank that guardian angel for giving me this appearance," he said. "Now, what are you doing here?"

"Playing," Bree repeated her answer, kicking the pebble beneath her feet lightly.

"You are playing here every day?" Lord Bayle raised his head and moved closer to the bars, where he could see the little girl more clearly.

At first, the dragon lord thought Bree would run away, since his current look was something that could even chase away the ghosts, but his guess was wrong; the little girl just looked at him with curiosity. But no fear.

Interesting.

Lord Bayle grabbed the bars and pressed his face close to it, staring at Bree. "What do you want sweety pie? What actually brought you here?"

Bree blinked her eyes, but didn't speak for a whole minute, before she finally decided to open her mouth. "Are you a dragon shifter?"

Lord Bayle chuckled and spoke hoarsely, yet there was a sense of pride when he answered her back. "Yes. From the royal family," he said proudly.

"Can you shift into your beast? I want to see how a dragon looks like," Bree said, her eyes shone expectantly.

However, before she could hear the lord Bayle's response, they heard some commotion from the floor above, through the door that was left open.
