THE LOVE OF A LYCAN

Chapter 489: Don't ever do that again!

Lana didn't know what got into her when she circled her arms around Kace's torso and rested her forehead against his back.

"I am worried about you…" she heard herself whispered against Kace's skin and the body in her arms became stilled.

Lana was worried about Kace and that was the truth, this was a genuine feeling that she felt for him for over seventeen years now.

Regardless her effort to avoid him or her futile attempt to ignore her feeling, the affection that Lana has for Kace was honest.

She knew how much Kace loved Hope because of the mate bond between them and Lana could see the little girl has the same feeling for this lycan.

But, if the war happened and Kace would lose his mate, how he could cope up with the pain?

It was pathetic that Lana has to repeat the same story as the witch. Just like Serefina, she loved someone who didn't belong to them.

Lana knew, Serefina's another intention for giving her many tasks that should required her to be away from Kace, especially during his visit.

All this time, she just accepted it. Lana thought she would forget about this feeling, that this feeling was a fleeting moment of affection, gratefulness because Kace had saved her life.

But, seeing Kace was in pain and the horrible wounds on his back, Lana couldn't help herself, she wanted to be near him, as close as possible.

The feeling of his warm skin against hers only lasted for a moment before all of that disappeared and a deep growled rang in her ears.

Lana raised her head only to meet the dark eyes from the beast under Kace's human skin. His body was shaking, his beast was fighting his human side to take control, to teach the werewolf in front of his eyes a lesson for touching him in improper way.

"Don't ever f*cking do that again!" Kace's eyes flickered from black to red, as his blood boiled in his veins. He spoke through gritted teeth and was having a hard time to control his beast.

Even though the monster inside of him have weakened but that did not mean the human side of Kace simply accepted the action that Lana have been done.

It was outrageous!

Lana gulped down hardly, her lips parted but she failed to produce any sound or explanation, which Kace wouldn't want to hear now. He had heard enough Lana's rumbling for tonight and he didn't want more of that.

Very quickly, Kace took his clothes and walked away from that house with anger reverberated in every step that he took.

Leaving Lana was still in daze.

It happened very fast and the moment she realized what she had done, she was alone in that terrace. A dry smile pulled on her lips, knowing she would be in great trouble now.

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

Hope scribbled something on her book while listening to Lana's explanation about today lesson, her monotonous voice echoed through the whole room and bored a few students until they decided to fall asleep during her class.

Hope knew that Lana was aware about that, but like usual, she didn't give a d*mn about the way how she taught her students.

After all, she was here not because she wanted to be here, it was just because she couldn't refuse the witch and was tied down with the vow with Kace.

For the last case, Hope was slightly agitated. Why both of them had that kind of vow? She couldn't comprehend it.

No, her jealousy couldn't understand it.

Hope pouted and continued to scribble something on her book until Ian, who was sitting next to her, nudged her arm.

"What?" Hope hissed as she turned around to see Ian was nodding his head to the window beside her.

"Look." Ian spoke in low voice. "That woman has been looking to your direction since ten minutes ago."

Hope narrowed her eyes at the figure across the school gate, it was a woman who was wearing a brown floppy hat with a black sunglasses that covered half of her face, but from the way she angled her head, Hope agreed with Ian that the woman was looking toward her direction.

"I have never seen that woman…" Hope frowned and returned her focus on her book. "Maybe she is looking at someone else and not me."

"Impossible." Ian refused Hope's statement readily, his hazel eyes fixed on the woman's figure. "She is not a human, you know."

Hope whipped her head to see the woman again, but she couldn't pinpoint anything from her that made Ian could say she wasn't a human.

"She looks human for me." Hope shrugged, but her eyes were still on the woman with floppy hat.

A yellow long dress and black boats with sling bags, fluttering blonde hair behind her back, nothing was unusual and Hope was too lazy to find out what that woman was.

She had been seeing those creatures for years and now she was at the point, she didn't need to pay extra attention for them.

"It is hard to say it, but my instinct which tell me…" Ian plopped down on his seat again and followed the rest of Lana's boring explanation.

When the bell rang and it was the time for another teacher and lesson, Lana repeated her lines of 'goodbye' before she gave another tasks that Hope was very sure, she had never really cared enough to check it.

Afterward, Lana's tall body disappeared behind the door.

"Hope, Ms. Rellin left her book, why don't you give it back to her?" Celline approached Hope while giving her the book that Lana had left behind.

"Alright," Hope answered lightly, she knew most of the student didn't want to be near Lana because of her dark aura, which as if telling people to stay away from her.

Hope stood up, she didn't mind to deliver the book, maybe she could catch a glimpse of Kace in the teacher's room.
