The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 499 - SEREFINA TENDENCY

"I don't mean any harm on Hope," Lana spoke with uncertainty. She felt like being flayed with Serefina's words. It wasn't a good feeling to say the least. The witch lived too long to see through her defense.

"I wish you mean what you say." Serefina turned to look at the view from her window again. Such a beautiful world out there when one could only see in a small frame like this, because the moment you saw the whole picture, it wasn't the best place to live.

"Of course I meant it." the tone that Lana used was too harsh to be heard as genuine statement.

Serefina didn't argue with her again.

"Serefina…"

"Hm?"

"What will you do when you meet with his mate?" Lana asked, her mind was like a whirlwind now, confusing her further about what she wanted and what she needed.

About that…

Serefina didn't have an answer…

But, fortunately she didn't need to answer that, at least for now, because Kace entered the room without knocking and this made the witch sighed exasperatedly.

"Did my bedroom turn into a gathering place?!" she hissed agitatedly. "Why doesn't anyone knock on the door?"

"Is that necessary? When you already know who will come and know that I will enter the room regardless your consent." Kace walked in and stood in front of Serefina.

On the other hand, Hope followed behind him silently and plopped down on the single sofa, walking as quiet as she could, trying to not get the anyone attention.

Lana glanced at Hope and saw she gave her small nod. She had expected this. Kace's answer was too predictable if it regarding his mate.

However, Lana was relieved that Kace finally gave in. He needed this. Her focus now turned to Kace and Serefina.

"Tell me who is the person that you are looking for in the northern coven. I will look for them." Kace talked directly to the witch.

Serefina glanced at Lana briefly, who was still standing beside the door, before she gave the attention that the lycan demanded.

"You can't go there alone," Serefina said in finality. "You know it very well that place is not for shape shifter like you."

"You must know the way to enter the northern coven for shape shifter like me." Kace used the same tone to rebut her statement. "I just need to know the person I need to find and ways to enter that realm."

"You will not survive there." Serefina held his gaze as the words slipped her lips with inevitability. "No, if you are going alone." Her lime green eyes fell on Lana, suggesting something that Kace should have known it from the beginning. historical

Lana straightened her back when she realized where this conversation would lead to. "I can go by myself," She immediately answered the question that had not been asked. "I will find that person this time." She added, wishing her nervousness didn't got caught by them.

What was in Serefina's mind? Was she suggesting her to go with Kace alone? Was she out of her mind?

Not to mention to go alone with Kace, Lana was having a hard time be near him and for important note, Kace and she were not in good term now.

Lana glanced at Kace fearfully. The prospect of being in a mission with him was something that made her heart thumped rapidly.

If Kace agreed, this wouldn't be their first mission together, but this would be their first mission together after he knew how Lana felt about him. Wouldn't this be awkward?

Only if he agreed. Lana thought bitterly.

"How long it would take to find the person and comeback?" surprisingly, Kace's question this time was directed to Lana. "How long it would take to find the person and comeback?" He repeated his question because Lana did not answer him.

"Uh?" Lana snapped out from her deep thought as she regained her composure. "Because Serefina has gotten more information regarding this person location, I think if everything goes well, it will take no more than one week." Lana wanted to slap herself because of acting so weird.

Fortunately, Kace didn't point it out, but his declaration next was caught Lana by surprised.

"I will go with you," Kace said in monotonous tone.

If the journey no more than one week, he would be able to return before the festival to make sure Hope didn't take a step out of the house during that period of time.

"What?" Lana was surprised. "No, you don't have to." She was panicked with the prospect of being with him for days. It would be awkward as hell, for certain.

"Didn't you say that shape shifter can't enter the realm?" Hope chimed in. She disliked the idea of Lana and Kace were being together for days too. Though what the two women thought had very different reasons.

"No, I didn't say something like that." Serefina disagreed with Hope's statement. "Kace will not be able to enter the northern coven realm alone, but it is different case if he goes with Lana. I think this will shorten their travel time." Serefina shrugged nonchalantly and this received a narrow gaze from both Lana and Hope.

Hope felt slightly off with Serefina's decision.

"It settled then." Kace nodded his head. He walked toward Hope and grabbed her hand. "Let me know when will you leave."

With that being said, Kace exited the room along with Hope, whose expression said that she still had more to say regarding this situation.

"What is your intention?" Lana threw Serefina a questioning look.

"What? I want to help both of you. You need his help to finish this job faster and as the person who is the core of this mission, it is only natural for him to go." Serefina has innocent expression on her face.

Narrowing her eyes, Lana voiced out what was in her mind. "You have a tendency to separate mates."

"You learn a lot."
