The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 713 - HARSHER PUNISHMENT

"Something happened in the dungeon. I want you to stay inside your chamber." Jedrek said rigidly. He didn't want to hear her rejection right now since he was so livid.

It was not only the dungeon, but something was happening in the front yard. Someone had killed all of the guards and released those shifters from their cells, and now they were running toward the gates to free themselves.

However, once they reached the gates and there were people who saw them, the problem wouldn't end up there. It would cause another ripple of protest from the citizens. They would hold solid evidence that the royal had something to do with their missing family members.

[Close all the gates! And don't let any of the shifters get away!] Jedrek gave an order through the mind- link and listened to their solemn replied while taking Lilac away. [Eaton. Find out who released them!]

Lilac was panting heavily when she had to catch up with Jedrek's quick steps. The king only stopped when he found a guard nearby and handed Lilac over to him.

"Bring her to her chamber and make sure she stays there," Jedrek spoke sternly.

"What? No!" Just like what Jedrek had thought, Lilac refused to listen to his order. "I am going with you!"

Jedrek stopped walking and glared at the guardian angel, but Lilac didn't back down easily as she craned her neck to meet with his gaze.

"You will not like what you see," Jedrek spoke through his gritted teeth. "Stay inside your room and don't go out until I said so."

Lilac shook her head helplessly. She knew Jedrek wouldn't listen to her, so words wouldn't work on him. It would be great if she could save his energy for another important thing except argued with him.

With that thought, Lilac walked away toward the commotion. She couldn't listen to the noisy sound that happened in the front yard, as it was too far from where she was now, but she still could feel it.

She ran as fast as her feet could take her, but Jedrek still managed to outrun her after saying, "don't make a fuss with what you will see."

Soon, his figure disappeared at the corner and when Lilac took the same turned, the king had gone. "Why is he very fast?" Lilac grumbled and looked beside her, where the guard from earlier caught up with her. "What are you doing?"

"The king gave an order to stay with you my lady," The guard said.

"I am not your lady!" Lilac snapped at him, venting out her frustration because of Jedrek.

"What happened with Calleb?" Raine was standing at the stern of the ship with Raphael beside him and Torak was talking to Calleb, but occasionally he would glance at her direction to make sure, Raine wouldn't take any reckless movement that caused her to fall into the sea.

"Like usually, Torak needs to talk something to him. You know him, he is a capable pup, but sometime he can be thoughtless," Raphael replied to her. He was in alert, ready to take some action if needed.

Raine wanted to see the twilight from this part of this ship and after persuading Torak tirelessly, finally he relented.

A moment ago, Torak was with her, but then he remembered there was something he wanted to say to Calleb when the Gamma walked past them, therefore Raphael was in charge for Raine now.

"Calleb dislikes Hope," Raine stated, she closed her eyes when the wind brushed her face and swayed her long hair. "He said it himself." Raine added when Raphael gave her a questioning look.

The Beta sighed deeply and didn't answer immediately, as both of them watched the sun slowly disappeared at the line where the sky and the sea meet.

"Calleb doesn't dislike Hope, he doesn't like rogue." Raphael told her. "He lost his younger sister in one of the rogue attack."

Raine whipped her head and widened her eyes in surprised. "I have never heard about this."

"Yes, he was training at that time for his position as gamma when his original pack was attacked. There were many casualties, including his sister." Raphael recalled the memories. "She was around your age and was a warrior in their pack."

Raine's expression turned gloomy. "That's why he said he didn't like Hope because she smelled like a rogue."

"It was only his younger sister was left from his family, as his parents both died for the same reason." Raphael put his hand on top of Raine's head and patted her. "It was also the memory that Calleb had seen when we went to the devil's den not long ago, when we went to the secret passageway to get the book to save Torak."

Raine remembered, it was also the same time when she saw Hope for the first time and the other guardian angel that she had seen first.

"That's why, he was a little bit distracted when we were in battle with the devil afterward," Raphael said softly and glanced at Calleb, who was nodding his head while smiling wryly at Torak, it seemed he did another silly mistake again. historical

"He became moody," Raine turned around and watched Calleb was saying something to Torak.

"It's alright. He will be fine eventually, he only needs time to readjust his feeling. Maybe his dislike toward Hope because of the fact that she and Kace are indeed rogue, but you don't have to think about it too much, he will just annoy them a little."

Raine chuckled when she heard that, but her sadness comeback when her laugh died down. She walked toward Calleb.

Torak and Calleb stopped talking when they saw Raine was approaching them, the moment she was close enough, she hugged Calleb.

Calleb's eyes widened in surprise, especially when Torak narrowed his eyes dangerously. "Raine, don't you think you are hugging the wrong person? Torak was scolding me and if you act like this, my punishment can be harsher," he whined.
