The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 396 - THIS WAS THE TIME

"Sorry for the trouble. Don't you worry, I will return the favor." Kace spoke carelessly and smirked deviously when he saw how the expression of Maximus changed.

Kace thought Maximus would try to attack him, but he didn't do that as he decided to leave the room before he changed his mind and had unnecessary fight with Kace. The younger brother of Donovan was known as an ignorance person.

The sound of the door slammed shut was reverberating through the wall. Kace's dark eyes stared at it for long time before he walked toward the window and watched the night fell and the lights from the city near the castle was akin to the stars in the sky.

Kace knew it.

Jedrek would issue this order sooner or later. He was so against the fact that the moon Goddess had lifted their curse and blessed them with mate since his older brother has Serefina and thought of her as his mate.

Jedrek didn't care about his destined mate and he thought his other brothers also had the same idea as him without even asking a single question about it.

Especially when they knew about what kind of creature that their mate would be.

A guardian angel.

Such a weak creature as the mate of the most powerful Lycan in this realm. It would turn out as a joke if there was a single soul knew about it.

Jedrek was the firstborn, thus his pride and vanity was hundred times worse than the average Alpha. He wanted their blood to not be tainted by the lowly creature like guardian angel.

Jedrek was very controlling, even to his own brother.

Probably because of that too Torak chose to leave this realm and built his own empire.

However, Kace couldn't do the same thing. There was something that held him back. The great war not only left him with visible wound, but also there was something that shook his conscience deeply.

Though either Torak or Kace showed his opinion about this mate thing, but deep down in Kace's heart he was longing for having his own mate.

Kace didn't know about Torak. But for him, mate was the essence of their existence, at least that was how Kace sees it.

Regardless the fact that his mate would be the weak creature of guardian angel, the information that quite disturbing.

But, the problem was; Jedrek would kill his brother's mate without hesitation and he was very determined about it.

Kace closed his eyes and when he opened them, it had turned to its original blue color.

This wasn't the time yet to break loose. This wasn't the right time because Kace was waiting for 'that' signal.

The witch would send him a cue when he could leave this realm. Having Jedrek as his brother was both bless and curse.

Until that time, Kace needed to keep it low.

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

The year when Serefina left the realm was the darkest days of Jedrek's regime.

He turned feral and killed a lot of his hunter when they returned with nothing. No news about Serefina whereabouts.

Jedrek even went to extra length to trespass other creatures' territory and messed up with the witches from the northern coven. The council who tried to oppose and advise him otherwise would end up death right at the moment when they raised his voice.

Jedrek didn't believe that Serefina could leave his territory with no one realized it.

That dark days happened for year and when Serefina's name turned into a taboo topic, the situation became much better as well.

There was less blood under Jedrek's throne.

Meanwhile, Kace was under strict supervision. He wasn't allowed to leave his room without Jedrek's permission.

Even when he could leave his room, Maximus or his people would come to stick his nose too close for his liking, yet Kace ignored them all the time.

Jedrek has no evidence that Kace was somehow involved in Serefina escaping from this place. He just knew that the night when Serefina disappeared, Kace also couldn't be found anywhere for almost two days before he returned and said that he just shifted into his beast and enjoyed the nature.

Though it sounded fishy, but that was what Kace always did when he couldn't be reached.

During that stressful period of time, the only thing that kept the youngest Donovan to strive was the thought that one day he would find his mate. historical

Kace tried to think positively when he had not yet heard about the news that Maximus had managed to find anything about his or Torak's mate.

Except the three of them, Serefina and Maximus, Kace didn't think that there was another people knew about this thing.

Decades passed just like a blink of an eye, especially for those Lycans who were blessed with eternal life.

Time wasn't something that they needed to be worried about and also wasn't something that they realized when days after days changed and never came back.

Serefina's name had never been mentioned, but it would always etch on people's mind that their Alpha could turn the realm upside down when it came about something that he cared the most.

Even after a hundred thousand days had passed not even a single news about Serefina could be found. She was called as the great witch not for nothing.

She hid herself very well.

Until today, when the sign from her finally arrived.

It was sunny day with warm sunray bathed Kace's body as he laid lazily on the couch in the west yard of the castle, enjoying the wind that blew his hair.

However, all of sudden, day turned into the dark of the night as the bright sun was covered with shadow.

The guards around Kace turned panic and urged him to go back to his room, as solar eclipse was a bad omen.

However, Kace has his own interpretation of this phenomenon.

This was the sign that he had been waiting for.

This was the time.
