THE LOVE OF A LYCAN

253 I WON'T LEAVE UNTIL I GET WHAT I WAN

Yet Raine was too shocked to even respond as her body trembled in fear.

Is he dead?

That was the only question she kept asking in her head, amidst the ringing sound that was gradually decreasing.

Calleb's worried voice was the first thing that she heard in the midst of clamor.

"Raine, can you walk?" Calleb asked as he saw Raphael and Serefina running towards them.

Raine closed her eyes and nodded.

"Let's go." Calleb said as he turned Raine's body and grabbed her hand, walking away from the entrance gates.

There were many spectators holding their breath who stood as far away as they could.?But still, their distance was close enough for them to witness everything.

"Raine…" Raphael draped a blanket on Raine's shoulder as he pulled her into his embrace and carried her in his arms so they could walk faster towards Torak's office.

Raine could still hear the last explosion from the car which sounded dull and less appalling than the first one.

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

"I don't believe it!?They took that entrance instead of this one here… tsk!" Andromalius clicked his tongue, annoyed at his missed opportunity. The snake in Adromalius' hand slithered down his body.

He just saw how the car with the guardian angel and the lycans ran passed the nearest entrance and sped to the other.

"If only they went here, I would have surprised them." Andromalius smirked as he caressed his snake's head. "Are you sure Torak has disappeared for days now?"

Lucifer closed his eyes when he heard the sound of a loud explosionfrom afar. "Hmm." He said, enjoying what he was hearing.

"Where did he go?" Andromalius was curious.?This had never happened before.?An Alpha went missing.

"I don't know." Lucifer shrugged his shoulder. "Even his mate is desperate to know, too."

Andromalius' eyebrows creased as he frowned. "Maybe he took the brunt because of your last battle?" He tried to make a guess.

"I did feel something was wrong with him during our battle…" Lucifer murmured as he strode away.

"But he is the Alpha!?He is not so weak to be beaten up by you and only for a short fight like that, right?" Andromalius still couldn't understand the situation. "Hey! Lucifer! You know something, right?!"

The devil chased after the devil and then disappeared from sight.

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

Serefina handed a glass of warm water to Raine and sat down next to her while Calleb and Raphael sat across from them.

Because of his anxiety, his tone was a bit harsh.

Calleb, who realized that Raphael had gone a little bit overboard, elbowed his arms and made a face, reminding him he shouldn't speak that way.

"Listen Raine…" Raphael sighed deeply.

"No! You listen to me." Raine put down the glass in her hand on the table.?Despite her trembling hands, her voice was steady as she looked at Raphael impassively. "Tell me now, where is Torak?"

Raphael was caught off guard by Raine's behavior and the way she looked at him.

"Raine, Torak will meet you eventually, but not now." Raphael replied calmly, giving her the same answer that he gave her every time she asked about Torak.

"I want to meet him now." Raine said, leaving him with no room to negotiate.?She was fed up with Raphael's excuses that she couldn't meet Torak for the meantime, yet he didn't provide her with reasonable reasons.

"You can't meet him now Raine. You know that, I have told you many times." Raphael held Raine's gaze with unperturbed attitude. "Stop asking the same question and Torak will meet you soon."

"Stop giving me the same answer and start explaining to me the reason behind Torak's disappearance." Raine retorted.

From the side, Serefina leaned her back against the backseat as she rested her elbow on the armrest.?A smirk of approval appeared on her face when she heard Raine's rebuttal, as if she was enjoying the show.

"Raine…" Raphael once again let out a helpless sigh.?He had been avoiding her lately because he didn't want to answer this. "I will ask Calleb to take you home once the situation outside is under control."

"I will not go anywhere unless you take me to Torak." Raine said determinedly. She glared at Raphael and folded her arms stubbornly.

"Raine, you don't understand the situation." Raphael said tiredly.?He had been handling a lot of things in Torak's absence and now he didn't think he could handle Raine's demand as well.

"Explain it to me then. Make me understand." Raine was resolute to find out the answer and she wouldn't go anywhere without getting what she wanted.

"Raine, you are making things difficult." Raphael tried to sound like he was angry, yet Raine remained unyielding.

"I will make things more difficult for you if you keep doing this to me." Raine was dead set with her demand.

Beside her, Raine could hear Serefina's chuckle and knew immediately that the witch was on her side.

Upon hearing Serefina's chuckle, Raphael threw her a glare which she returned with a shrug. "What? You know I disagree with your Alpha's decision regarding this matter."

Sometimes, Raine was confused whether she hated the witch or not, but at a time like this, she was grateful that Serefina didn't oppose her.

"What?" Calleb shrunk in his seat. "As awful as it sounds, but I agree with the witch." He blurted out when he in turn received Raphael's glare.

"What do you mean awful?" Serefina was offended by Calleb's statement.

"You know, I don't really like to agree with you." Calleb replied sullenly. "But our opinion is the same this time."

"Make your own opinion!" Serefina growled at him.
