Chapter 261 MY DEAR, GO HOME PLEASE
261 MY DEAR, GO HOME PLEASE
"I will not, why would I?" Raine could feel a strange sense of anger rising up in her throat.
"I am just saying." Raphael yielded, he started the engine and drove the SUV away.
Lately, Raine became easier to be irritated by a small thing or maybe it was due to the fact that Raphael had prevented her from meeting Torak so many times, thus it was safe for Raphael to not take her bad side and provoke her further.
It took more than one hour and half hours from the airport to Torak's location.
At first, Raine thought they would go to the raven city where the pack house was located, however the road was different from the last time Raine visited him.
The further they drove, the lesser the people and the cars that could be seen.
And when finally the sun had arisen, they arrived at a big house with a gargoyle statue on each side of the big double gates.
Raphael honked the car twice before a man came out from the side of the car. Seeing this made Raine feel startled as she let out a stifled scream.
"It's okay Raine…" Calleb turned around and chuckled. "He is also a lycan."
"I know…" Raine whined when she saw the man who was bulkier than Mark and with a really long beard that reached the front of his big stomach.
How big would he be in his Lycan's form? These irrelevant questions flew in her minds for a few seconds.
After the huge man saw Raphael, he bowed his head in submission and proceeded to open the gates for them to enter the vast yard filled with lush full trees, which lined up along the way to the main house.
This place was elegant and the main house, which wasn't very big, was hidden in between old trees which surrounded every side of the house.
The house was painted in white, dominated by transparent windows that allowed someone from the outside to see the inside of the house clearly.
Raine was stunned at the sight of this beautiful building before her eyes.
When they stepped onto the threshold, Calleb stood beside her and nudged her side with his elbow. "This is only camouflage, the real deal of this building is in the underground." He said in low voice.
"What is in the underground?" As she asked the question, the memory of the place where Torak was being held flashed in her mind, reminding her of how terrifying that place seemed.
"You will see it soon." Calleb grimaced.
Compared to the dungeon that they had in raven village, this place seemed much worser, even though the exterior of this place was so beautiful and admiring. Calleb himself had only been here once.
It was Belinda, the middle aged lady ran toward Raine and pulled her into a tight hug as she rubbed her back excitedly.
Belinda and Serefina shared the same blood from their father, the pure blooded wizard, but from appearance, people would think that Belinda was Serefina's mother, this was because the werewolf's blood in her.
The werewolf indeed had a long life span, but it wasn't as long as the lycan's and their appearance would start to change after their age crossed the four hundred years mark, so it was understandable that Belinda looked older than Serefina as the latter had the pure blood.
"Belinda?" Raine reciprocated her hug in puzzlement, she even forgot the last time she met Belinda in the Fulbright city.
The last time she remembered, Belinda helped her to dress up for her eighteenth birthday party, where Torak announced their relationship to the public.
Afterward, she was told that Belinda went to take care of Serefina when the latter got a backlash from sapping the power of a Luna of the Lycanthropes' when they traveled back to the past and after that, Raine had never heard about her again.
"Oh, wait!" Belinda suddenly pushed her away from her, her eyes widened as she stared at Raphael. "Why is she here? The Alpha had specifically told you to not let Raine know about it."
Raine could feel her heart being tugged ruthlessly by Belinda's words. Why was Torak so adamant about not letting her know about his condition? Wasn't she his mate?
Torak told her himself that they would do things together, but why was she being left in the dark? Raine had to admit that she was disappointed and upset by Torak's decision.
"You can ask that your sister over here." It was Calleb who answered Belinda's question, he glanced at Serefina beside him provocatively.
"Does it make you feel better to throw the entire blame on me?" Serefina raised her eyebrows. "Don't pretend that you don't want to let Raine know about this. You didn't even attempted to stop me." She sneered and walked ahead arrogantly.
It was true that Calleb wanted to tell Raine about Torak's whereabouts, but because he was bound to obey his Alpha's order, he couldn't do that.
Thankfully, with Serefina's cunningness, she managed to solve the problem. So, Calleb didn't have the right to blame her for this when he had the same intentions as the witch.
"Serefina! You can't let her meet Torak, now!" Belinda yelled at her half- sister. "You didn't keep your words!"
Serefina turned around and frowned, her lime green eyes looked brighter when she stared down at Belinda. "Your Alpha didn't say anything like; I wasn't allowed to bring her here directly, he just asked me to not let Raine learn about this place." She said smartly, finding a loophole in Torak's order.
"You are so shameless." Belinda hissed and then she turned around to face Raine as her expression softened. "Raine, my dear, just go home please… you don't want to see Torak in his current state."
Unexpectedly, Raine laughed cynically at Belinda's plea and when she stopped, she spoke icily. "It is on me whether I want to see Torak or not."
