The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 946 - LET THIS HAPPEN FOREVER

"Raine, I am truly sorry, but you know that I can't go against his direct order…" Calleb looked at Raine regretfully, he didn't know what else to say to her. If he could, he wouldn't do this to her, ever. "What was happening between the two of you?"

Raine stood in the middle of her room and stared at Calleb impassively. The way she stared at him, made the Beta grimace, he didn't like it when Raine acted very distant with him.

"You know about their plan?" Raine asked him directly, she didn't have enough time if she had to deal with Calleb too.

"What plan?" Calleb asked Raine, frowning.

"Their plan to prolong the war," Raine blurted out.

"Prolong the war?" Calleb didn't have any idea what Raine was talking about. "Raine, there must be a misunderstanding between the two of you." He tried not to conclude this matter in a rush.

"So, you don't know it either…" Raine could see the genuine confusion in Calleb's eyes when he said that.

"Raine, there is no way Torak would do such a thing," Calleb said.

"He had already done that," Raine replied grimly, if she didn't confront him directly and knew him well, she wouldn't be able to tell it either. "Go and ask your Alpha, why he scattered all our forces in various places to fight the creatures from hell instead of dealing with our main problem; how to stop those creatures from coming."

Just like the other Alphas, Calleb didn't question Torak's decision. However, if Raphael was still here, he would be able to tell if there was something wrong with Torak. Unfortunately, he was no longer there to keep the Alpha in the right track.

Seeing that Calleb was lost for words, Raine closed her eyes to control her anger, she could feel her fury gnawing at her skin, making her heart beat faster. "Leave me alone, Calleb. I want to be alone now."

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

Everything went utterly blinding the moment Lilac touched the stone and the only question in her mind was; how to end this war.

And the stone showed it to her.

She opened her eyes after the blinding light dimmed a little, just to find herself standing at the edge of one of the craters, she fell on to her knees, not having any idea what the moon goddess had planned for her to give this kind of fate.

In spite of the fact that she didn't know it beforehand, she could still feel the seriousness of the outcome the moment Selene told her the purpose of her life, but to face death head on was a different feeling from what she could ever imagine.

Not because she would be burned down to nothing but ashes, but to think she had to leave the love of her life was a different thing entirely.

She felt like her heart broke into a million pieces, but at the same time, her mind told her that it was the right thing to do, that it was something that she had known from the very beginning.

That was what she thought when she stood at the lip of the crater, the hottest place that she had ever been, sweating.

A small gasp escaped her lips when a tear fell on her cheek.

Lilac gazed at the lava beneath her and then turned her head to see the white lycan, not far from her, facing hundreds of creatures from hell, alone.

She knew her choice. She knew it beyond the shadow of a doubt, she felt it in her soul about what was the necessary thing to do, to end this war and to save his life.

Her heart began to race when she stood up.

It needed a great amount of courage to avert her eyes from the white lycan behind her and put her attention back to her impending end before her eyes.

And now, all she could see was fire, it swirled and bubbled as if it was a mirror of her own anxiety.

And then a thought came to her mind; she was just a nobody, the only essence of life that Selene kindly gave to her and she should be grateful enough to know the love that Jedrek showed to her…

So Lilac did what she thought she had to do, with the roar of the angry lycan behind her, she stopped thinking and lost herself in the swirling fire…

Lilac closed her eyes and felt her body dove into the pit of fire, but then she heard someone calling out her name as the roar of the white lycan and the crackle of the flames faded away in the background.

"Lilac?"

She knew his voice, thus she opened her eyes to see his blue ones.

"Lilac? What did you see?" Jedrek was standing behind her, he noticed how Lilac's shoulders shook with emotion and the faint sobs that escaped her lips.

Lilac turned around and a tear fell down her cheeks, seeing this Jedrek approached her hastily and wiped her tears for her.

"What did you see my little flower?" Jedrek asked, even though he could roughly guess what was that. He just hoped for a different answer when he brought her here, but he knew that it was his wishful thinking the moment he found the answer in her eyes.

It was the end that he didn't want to think about, the end that he didn't even want to know.

"You will be all right, I will keep you safe." Jedrek hugged Lilac tightly when he heard another explosion from afar.

"No one can keep me safe, Jedrek," Lilac said, her heart was aching with this raw emotion. "This is the purpose of my life."

"No," Jedrek said firmly. "Your purpose of life is being with me. The moon goddess had given you to me and I will not let anything take you away." historical

Whether this was a mate bond, or a genuine feeling that he felt for her, Jedrek didn't want to let her go. No, he couldn't lose her.

"But, how?" Lilac whispered.

"If war is what keeps you here, with me, then let this happen forever," Jedrek stated.
