Chapter 813: How dare you jedrek!
"Where are my brothers?!" Kace shouted at Sterling as soon as he reached the entrance of the city and stood in front of the tightly closed gates.
Before his eyes, there were almost every single creature, trying to break down the majestic iron gates, by shoving them with a big tree trunk that they had toppled down.
However, the gates wouldn't even budge and Kace could only grit his teeth in annoyance when he remembered that the gates, usually, never been closed before, as it needed twenty people to open it.
But now, it seemed as if there was something that held the gates together from the other side.
Sterling rushed beside Kace. "Both of them shifted and climbed the walls," he informed him.
Kace raised his head and looked at the tall wall, from where he was standing, it looked like the tip of the wall could touch the sky. There were a few shifters who had shifted into their beast forms, but they could only manage to reach half way through it.
And then Kace leapt forward and landed in his beast form, the white beast raced toward the gigantic wall and dug his claws deeper into the steel as he climbed it.
==============
The two white beasts managed to climb over the high gates of the castle and landed softly on the ground in a matter of few minutes.
However, both of them roared menacingly upon seeing what greeted them.
[Tell your people to back down!] Torak mind- linked Jedrek beside him. [Or else, I will not hesitate to claw their souls out of their bodies!]
In front of them, there were around three hundred guards, who were supposed to guard the castle, yet they gathered here and shifted into their beasts, almost at the same time, as soon as they heard the two white beasts landing inside the castle from climbing the high walls.
[I don't think they have any souls left in them.] Jedrek spoke grimly, as he watched those beasts' eyes shone with golden light, which was not their usual color. Golden color was meant for the devils.
[Then I assume you will not mind to find different guards.] After he said that to Jedrek, Torak's white beast dashed forward and his vicious roars shook the ground.
His claws pierced their flesh and continued to draw a lot of blood from whoever stood in front of him as an opponent. The white beast was exceptionally larger than the smaller beasts of the guards, yet his movements ware very swift and nimble enough to dodge those smaller beasts' claws and talons.
His body spun around and among the dark colors of the beasts around him, Torak's white beast was just like a flash of light, a white dot in the dark.
However, there was another white creature that leapt higher and landed himself in the middle of the beasts, who were once his own people, yet instead of fighting them, he avoided those beasts that wanted to taste flesh and blood from the very king they served previously.
[I will leave them to you.] Jedrek said casually to his brother before he bent his hind legs and took another leap, higher than before, that took him across the yard and freed himself from the siege of those beasts.
[D*MN YOU JEDREK!]Torak snarled and growled, fury shook his body. How dare Jedrek did this to him, that too at a time like this!
==============
Raphael rushed back to the king's wing when they couldn't find any clue about where Chiron took Lilac. The Beta was worried about Raine.
Yet, before they could reach the king's wing, a loud commotion accompanied with several outcries started coming from the front yard. It startled him to realize that sounds could be from guards.
"What was that?" Hope halted when Raphael stopped running and tilted his head toward the direction of the loud noises. "It sounds like a battle."
Raphael gritted his teeth. If all the guards left their post to fight, then it must be something important and powerful.
Thus, Raphael decided to take a closer look what was it, at least he had to know what was coming toward them.
"Stay close with me," Raphael glanced over his shoulder to make sure Lana and Hope were close enough in case something should happen and he had to react fast.
Yet, what Raphael saw in the front yard was something that he couldn't have imagined even in his wildest dreams.
There, Torak's beast was fighting hundreds of other beasts, alone.
In spite of the fact that the white beast didn't seem to lose the battle and seemingly could handle them single-handedly, but the most important thing that Raphael couldn't comprehend was; why would Torak fight the guards? And why did those guards attacked him? Didn't they know it was Torak?
Raphael tried to mind- link Torak, yet he couldn't reach him despite their close proximity.
"Stay here," Raphael said grimly to the two women behind him before he stepped into the black rain that still poured down from the dark sky and joined the battle.
==============
Chiron walked with Lilac in his arms, he slowed down once he was out of the castle through the west gates. To escape from Hope was not a feat for him, since he knew the girl wouldn't be able to catch up to him.
The centaur looked down and watched Lilac's brows crease in discomfort. She looked weak, just like how Hope was when Kace brought her for the first time.
"I don't hold a grudge toward you," Chiron said in soft voice. "But, I can't let go my hatred toward your mate. It will be an insult for my deceased mate."
He walked in the empty street, under the black rain that drizzled on them.
Black color stained Lilac's face and the white clothes that she was wearing. She looked pitiful and had a hard time to catch her breath because of the ever pouring black rain.
Hence, Chiron slightly leaned over and pressed her head against his chest to cover her face as he walked further toward the place where he would meet with the devils.
If there was one thing that he regretted, it was the fact that he disappointed his own people for doing this and also Kace and Hope. One year that they spent together had made them so closer that he could ever imagine.
Meanwhile, once Chiron reached a certain building, he was greeted by Lucifer.
