Chapter 245 COMPLICATED RELATIONSHIP
245 COMPLICATED RELATIONSHIP
And now, since thiswas brought up again, Raine became curious. "So, how did their relationship end?"
"Hmm…" Calleb mumbled. "I don't know which story is correct… some said Serefina didn't want to live with the Lycan anymore… some said Jedrek Donovan had banned her because of a mistake that she had committed which couldn't be forgiven…"
Raine found herself frowning. "What was the unforgivable mistake that Serefina had committed?"
Once again Calleb hesitated to talk about it, but this only made Raine even more curious.
"What was it?" Raine prodded.
"Remember, this is only hearsay and most rumors are not true." Calleb sat straight and looked at Raine deeply to confirm if the girl understood what he was saying.
"What?" Raine leaned over at Calleb.
"Some people said that Serefina had a relationship with Jedrek's younger brother behind his back." Calleb blurted out.
One day his mouth would really bring him trouble if he kept doing this.?The Gamma knew of the consequences, but the only problem was, he couldn't help it.
"Torak!?" Raine's voice rose up in surprise.
"No, of course not!" Calleb shook his head and waved his hands frantically. "It is the youngest brother, Kace Donovan."
Raine heaved a sigh of relief.?Although it was only a rumor, but the thought of Torak and Serefina having a relationship before didn't sit well with Raine.
"Kace Donovan…" Raine repeated that name. When she went to the past, she just saw Jedrek. At that time, Kace had not been born yet.
"Yes… but I don't know for sure if the rumor is true or not, but after Serefina disappeared, years after that Kace also left the castle and no one knows where he went." Calleb said.
Raine was contemplating about this fact. "So, whatdoes it have anything to do with the mate bond?"
"Oh, that one…" Calleb slapped his forehead, forgetting about the topic. "This is only my theory, but when I heard that guardian angels will be resurrected and they will be mates of the three Donovan brothers, knowing how strong the mate bond is, I think Serefina chose to leave the realm because of that." He voiced out his own opinion.
That made sense… no wonder Serefina was so irritated with the mate bond between Raine and Torak.
===============
Days passed and in the blink of an eye, it had been a week since Raine saw Torak that night and after that, Torak did not return home again.
Raine was allowed to go to college, but with every step that she took, she realized there was a pair of eyes that followed her every move.
"Stop following me!" Raine complained when Stephan followed her to the canteen to meet with Sunny. "You don't even want to be friends with them!"
The only thing that Stephan did whenever he joined her small circle of friends was make sarcastic comments about everything that Sunny said or Kai did, angering them effortlessly.
"Do you think I want to mingle with humans like them??If it was not because Raphael threatened me, I wouldn't even get near them!" Stephan was also fed up with the threats from the Lycan.
"You know where Torak is, right?" Raine accused bitterly, knowing what Stephan's answer would be.
"Do you think I, an outsider, would know where your Alpha went when you, as their Luna, don't even have any information about that?" Stephan replied in frustration. "How many times do I have to tell you this??I don't know where your mate is!"
Raine rubbed her face harshly. She was getting impatient and frustrated.?What should she have to do to find Torak?
Calleb had been avoiding her, because whenever Raine met him, the only thing that she would do was ask about Torak's whereabouts.?And Calleb would only tell her that he would return soon.
From afar, Raine could see Sunny waving her hand at her, but when her eyes landed on Stephan, her expression turned unsightly and Raine could only grimace.
She gave Sunny an apologetic gaze. "You better shut your mouth!" Raine hissed at Stephan and also glared at him.
This only made the dragon shifter smirked. "Wow, now even you dare to threaten me too…"
Raine ignored his sarcastic remark and walked towards Sunny and the others.
And as soon as Raine was within Sunny's reach, she pulled Raine close to her. This was a normal gesture that Sunny would do whenever she wanted to talk to her without letting the others hear about what they were talking about.
However, this time, there was something different.
For some odd reason, Raine??s sight turned blurry and foggy, as if there was a white thin smoke covering her eyes.
And then, she saw something… at first it wasn't clear enough for Raine to figure out what it was, then gradually the image became more and more vivid until it showed like a 3D movie scene right before her eyes.
The imageturned out to be Sunny slapping Stephan's face, her eyes flashing in anger.?Raine had never seen Sunny act this way before.
For some reason, Sunny was so angry at the shifter.?Raine could see her gritting her teeth and her hands were shaking.?Afterwards, she left, still fuming mad.
"Raine…?"
From afar, Raine could hear Sunny's voice, but wasn't she already gone?
Raine felt someone was shaking her arms.
"Raine, are you listening?"
Raine whipped her head towards the direction of Sunny's voice and found the girl looking at her with a worried expression.
Sunny was still there…
"Hey, I was talking to you but you weren't listening." Sunny pouted.
"I am sorry, but what did you say?" Raine asked absentmindedly.?She still couldn't comprehend what those images that she had seen just now meant.
"I was asking why you always bring him with you. No offense, but no one likes him." Sunny pointed at Stephanwith her chin.
