Chapter 1010: I hate the devil more than her
The siblings appeared beside the frozen river, with the battered and bloody little girl in Leon's arms.
Once their feet touched the ground and their figures were solidified, Leon put down Bree on the velvety grass and crouched down beside her. Abby did the same.
She nudged Bree's soft cheeks with her finger and put her forefinger under her small nose, to feel her warm breath.
"She is still alive," Abby announced.
"Thank you, but even I can see that," Leon sneered, but coupled with a soft smile on his lips, it was not sure whether that was a taunting or just a statement.
"You made quite a scene out there…"
Someone talked to them, as her figure appeared from thin air, walking slowly toward them with her white hair fluttering in the wind. She was an old woman, with wrinkles on her face and neck. Her hazy eyes were akin to a pair of foggy mirrors which minimized her vision when she looked at the siblings.
"Christal," Abby mentioned her name and then her eyes directed to someone behind the old woman and there she was; a young girl, around the age of fifteen or so, walking cheerfully behind the candlemaiden.
"Hai, Abby… long time no see." The young girl named Jean approached Abby and they hugged each other.
"Are you here because of that witch?" Leon raised his eyebrows, but there was a mischievous smirk on his lips. "I thought both of you are not in a favourable relationship, no?" he asked.
"We will never be in a good relationship whatsoever." Christal's voice was hoarse and heavy, with her old appearance, it was miraculous enough that she was still able to stand like this.
"But, here you are," Leon sneered and Christal scoffed when she heard that remark.
"I am here because I dislike the devils more than I hate Serefina," she said.
Leon chuckled when he heard that. "It seems you are not the only one." He glanced at his sister.
"I am here for Kace, not for anyone else!" Abby glared at Leon.
"But he has his own mate," Jean chimed in, as she crouched down beside Bree's body.
"I don't care, if the prophecy is true, that guardian angel will die and he will be mate less again," Abby said without thinking twice about what she just said.
"It doesn't mean he will run to you." Leon hit Abby hard with the fact and before the girl could spout some nonsense again, he focused his attention back on Bree and asked Christal. "Can you fix her? We need all the help if we are going to kill that creature beneath the frozen river."
With that being mentioned, all of their eyes shifted to the surface of the river that started to thaw with the color of blood red.
==============
The time only started to work for the creatures from hell and all the devils' minions again, but not for the lycanthropes and the dragon beasts.
Therefore, the first thing that those filthy creatures did was to kill all the lycanthropes near them and gauged the flesh of the dragon beasts, shredding them to pieces without them being able to fight back.
"How is it? It is very cool, isn't it?" Lucifer smirked, looking around him with a triumphant smile and a satisfied gaze in his golden eyes. "How couldn't your mate utilize such powerful gift to control the time?" he directed these words at Torak.
In no time, their surroundings had turned into an one sided massacre and there was nothing Lilac could do to stop them from butchering every lycan warrior in this battlefield.
Even her attempt to split the ground again and use her tendrils and roots to protect her people, was easily nullified by the devils, since they had the same power as her.
This is it? Is this the end of it?
The sky above them was glaring red, as if that was the perfect reflection of the blood that was being spilled on the ground in this vicious battle.
This is how it will end? They lost the war?
The despair was very thick in the air along with the hard smell of blood. If only they had Raine here, she could have stopped this massacre and even turned all the tables around.
However, whatever happening now here seemed to go against what they ever wanted and everything just became worser for each second that passed.
Not only that, the devils had the two guardian angels with them and whatever troops they had until now, thus the only possible way for them to survive was to retreat.
However, it meant they had to let all of the people that followed them, pledged their loyalty to them and sacrificed their lives for them, die here. In the worst way possible.
Their minds told them that was the right thing to do, but their hearts were very heavy just at that thought.
That didn't seem right and Lilac could barely grasp the reality.
"Do you want to see something more interesting?" Lucifer snapped his fingers and Hope and Raine appeared before their eyes. They appeared utterly still without any noticeable movements, flying horizontally, as if they were sleeping on a bed. "Maybe, you can see them for one last time. I am sorry to make this farewell sentimental for you two."
Seeing their mates, Kace and Torak growled viciously and Jedrek shifted into his human skin, pulling Lilac closer to him. He wanted to warn his younger brothers through mind- link, but they simply blocked their minds. "It is a trap."
At this time, Torak shifted back into his human skin with the firebird in his hand. Seeing that, Kace did the same.
And now the two firebirds were flying around them, ready to unleash their ultimate powers. This was the only chance for them to survive.
Their aim was not the devils' minions, but the devils themselves, as they could see Raine and Hope before their eyes.
They need to reach their mates and save them as soon as possible.
However, before they could make a move, Serefina appeared in the middle of all these chaos.
