The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 873 - THE MYSTERY OF TIME (3)

"Do you think I went out of the tent because I want to see Serefina?" he asked. That name was like a trigger for many unpleasant memories between the two of them, they hadn't talked about her since that day.

However, Jedrek didn't want to intensify any misunderstandings between them and create another problem that could distance them from each another. He was starting to love these serene moments when he was with Lilac. Even though Serefina's matter was still at the back of his mind, still Jedrek didn't want to bet his relationship with Lilac, which had now improved.

"Wasn't it?" Lilac asked softly, her eyes casted down, she was not sure whether she wanted to hear Jedrek's answer or not.

Whether he would answer her honestly, which would hurt her if he said 'yes', or he would lie to her, which would hurt her as well. Neither of the answers would make her feel better and Lilac hated feeling like this when there were a lot of things that they should sort out.

"I thought it was her, but it was not," Jedrek said. "The devil tricked me with her scent."

"It didn't cover up the fact that you were looking for her last night," Lilac murmured. She felt her anger boiling up in her stomach, as her throat pained when she uttered these words.

"There are a few questions that I have for her and I need the answers," Jedrek said truthfully.

It would be a lie if he said that he could accept Serefina's betrayal just like that and didn't even have a single question that had been bugging his mind.

He had many questions to help him understood what were her motives and the most important thing that Jedrek wanted to know was; was it him that had forced her to side with the devils? Was it the relationship between him and Lilac that coerced her to decide on turning her back on him?

No matter what everyone said and regardless Jedrek's feelings toward Serefina, he couldn't simply believe that the witch changed sides because of something which she already knew that it was inevitable. Moreover, this was what she chose for the two of them.

Jedrek knew her for a long time, through up and down of his life, and could even vouch that she wouldn't be that shallow to follow a reason like that for betraying him, or Kace. The younger Donovan was like a brother for her.

Jedrek had tried to understand her standing, but she shut him out after what she had done to him centuries ago.

That was what Serefina chose for them, yet why would she that?

"Regardless of my feelings, let's talk about you," Jedrek said and turned Lilac around, so she could face him. "You have some questions for her as well." He ended his words affirmatively. It was not a question, but a statement.

Lilac lowered her head.

"What matters now is," Jedrek put his finger under her chin and lifted her head. "During this time, we shouldn't question each other."

It was the time when even the smallest insecurity could turn out to be a biggest mishap for them. The devils would play their roles nicely in that small gap.

"Many people had turned their backs against me, but I don't wish for you to embark that list nor do I want to do that to you," Jedrek said solemnly as he kissed her temple.

Torak was fuming mad. He wanted to vent out his anger by killing those useless lycans for not doing their job properly.

However, after thinking about it again; who would have thought that the dwarf and the witch would teleport themselves out of this castle?Find authorized s in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/the-love-of-a-lycan_13952362506619705/the-mystery-of-time-(3)_50273291021118375 for visiting.

"What do you suggest?" Torak asked grimly, as he stood near the bed of the dwarf and scoffed when that cunning creature scent, hit his nose.

"We will wait," Kace said, he too didn't look any better than Torak, but at the very least, he was able to contain his anger and think more clearly than him this time.

"Wait?!" Torak growled. "Anything could happen to them out there!" his temper flared again. It seemed his cool was completely out of the window, from the moment the news of Raine went missing reached his ears.

"And do you know where to find them?" Kace asked irritably. "They could be anywhere."

"That's the best solution that you can give me?" Torak sneered, the edge of the table was cracked under his strong grip in order to calm himself.

"At the very least, they are with Lidya," Raphael said.

Meanwhile, Calleb who had been silent since he heard that Raine had gone missing again, finally spoke. "How much do you trust that which?" he asked in a strange tone.

Of course, the Gamma was feeling immensely worried about his Luna. The guardian angels could be exposed to unknown dangers and they didn't know where they were.

"I trust her enough not to betray us," Kace replied after some time.

"Like how you trusted Serefina?" Calleb questioned straight to the point. Even Serefina whom they thought was on their side had betrayed them, thus how could they trust the other person who was literally close to her?

The situation would turn messier if the two of them didn't come back.

"Call the head of the hunters and the centaurs here, I want to talk to them," Torak spoke to Jack, who was standing at the door.

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

Raine tried to cover her face from the harsh wind that the fae was creating, while asking her to stop.

She couldn't see anything with the dirt and pebbles swirling around her, but after some time, everything became normal and she even heard Lidya's voice.

"Raine, are you okay?" Lidya's voice was very close and then Raine felt someone shook her body lightly.

Only then did she put down her hand and Raine could see that she had returned to the time where she had left.

"What is going on?" Raine asked, she was in a daze.

"You disappeared for a few minutes," Lidya said in distress.

But, at the same time they heard the sound of ice cracking again and as they both turned their heads toward the frozen river, their eyes were greeted with a scene beyond their wildest dreams.

Something or more precisely some creature emerged from the ice cold water after breaking the icy surface apart. But that thing was too fast to decipher what it was as it flew straight into the sky like a lightening bolt. Yet, this bolt was red in color! historical
