After saying those harsh words, Serefina released Raine. She didn't have a slight intention to hurt her, however the witch really got irritated if someone started to cry and showed any kind of weakness.That was something she couldn't stand, let alone tolerate.
On the other hand, Raine gripped on the strip of her backpack tightened as she bit down her lips, she looked around, trying to find a way to escape from Serefina.
She was so terrified by her, something in her told Raine that Serefina wouldn't go easy on her. Whether it was because of her duty to help her to become stronger, or to vent out her anger towards Torak. Neither would end up good.
"Don't waste your time thinking that you can do that." Serefina was facing Raine again with an impatient look on her face. "Once you do that and I catch you, there will be no mercy for you." She talked in low and soft tones, but the meaning behind it spoke more volumes. "I will cut off your hair."
Raine gasped loudly, somehow she believed that she would do exactly what she said. And on top of that, Serefina absolutely had the ability and the cruelness to do that.
The little angel rubbed her eyes roughly before her tears fell on her cheeks, the witch said she didn't like to see her crying, who knew what she would do if she saw this.
The airport was filled with many people, but no one paid attention or cared enough to watch what was happening with the two women as they minded their own business.
Raine took every of her steps with great effort to follow Serefina, as if her feet suddenly weighed a ton each.
When they walked, someone suddenly approached Serefina. He was a young man in a black suit, with tanned skin, and a smile on his lips that seemingly never faded. He roughly looked like a man in his mid-twenties.
"Miss Serefina and…" His amber eyes landed on Raine. "Mrs. Donovan, right? My name is Jack, I will be your chauffeur." The young man introduced himself.
"What do you mean 'Mrs. Donovan'?! Call her by her name!" Serefina's voice raised a few octaves upon hearing how Jack addressed Raine.
"But, she is the Alpha's mate." Jack stated the fact without faltering even under Serefina's sharp gaze, his smile still etched on his full lips. For him, as a werewolf, mate would be the forever one, whether they had married or not, their woman would be the last woman for them.
"Or, which one do you prefer? Mrs. Donovan or Miss. Raine?" Jack asked Raine politely.
Jack had heard a little bit about their future Luna's personality. Calleb told him that their Luna was softhearted and a bit shy. But in his eyes, 'shy' couldn't describe her entirely—Raine had a problem, and it was more than being 'shy'.
"Call her Raine!" Serefina was almost screaming in her frustration, she had told Torak to keep things low profile, and to stop doing stupid things to spoil his mate, but he just couldn't listen.
Because in Torak's eyes, sending someone to pick them up from the Airport didn't seem to be a fancy thing, maybe they needed to talk more detail about 'do's and don'ts rule'.
Ignoring Serefina's angry tone, Jack kept looking at Rain, waiting for her answer. "So?"
Raine startled a bit when Serefina talked, she hastily pulled out her phone and typed something before she showed it to Jack.
On the screen there were only three simple words.
'Just Raine please'.
Jack smiled. "Ok. Raine, are you ready to go home?" He asked softly while giving back her phone.
Raine slightly raised her head when she heard the way Jack spoke to her, she glanced at Serefina's impatient expression, before she nodded her head slowly.
"Over here please." Jack led them to the black car that was parked not too far from them.
After the three of them got into the car, Serefina told Raine to take a seat beside Jack, who was driving, while she was sitting alone in the back seat, her reason was because she needed more space.
Raine didn't feel offended by that, as she also preferred to stay as far away as she could from Serefina.
When they just drove for a few minutes, Serefina's phone rang. The name that popped out from her phone didn't make her bad mood better.
"Torak, there are a lot of things that we need to talk about!" Serefina shouted at her phone.
"Where is my mate?" At the other side of the phone, Torak demanded.
"No! I will give the phone to your mate if you stop doing this!" Serefina yelled and glared at the traffic jam in front of them.
"Are you inside the car?" Torak asked impatiently.
"Yes, and this…" However before Serefina could say something the line had cut off.
The next second, another phone was ringing, it was Jack's. Jack only glanced at the name that appeared on his screen phone before he gave it directly to Raine.
Apparently, it wasn't only Serefina who owned the phone inside the car, Jack wanted to laugh about this.
"My love, are you alright?" Torak's soft tone was heard the moment Raine picked up the phone.
Raine nodded, the habit of hers, before she realized that Torak couldn't see her, and then said in a low voice. "Yes…"
There was silence afterwards, before Torak said. "I love you, my angel. We will meet soon." And the line was cut off.
Raine was surprised when Torak said that, because Serefina would flip out if he did come, she had warned him not to meet her, but apparently The Alpha didn't take it well.
Whatever it would be, Torak's words still managed to warm Raine's heart as a tear trickled down from her eyes, which she wiped it hastily.
It has not even been a week, but…
She missed him…
==============
Inside a luxurious room, Torak was staring at his phone before abruptly standing up and gave a sudden order. "Arrange a meeting with the De Medicci family."
"When?" Calleb caught out off guard by the sudden order.
"Tomorrow." Torak replied curtly before he went out of the room, leaving Calleb with his jaw dropped open.
"Raph, is the Alpha starting to become crazy? We can't do that! The De Medicci family is not part of our territory, there are a lot of things that we should do first to announce our visit!" Calleb cried to Raphael beside him.
If Torak wanted to meet the De Medicci family tomorrow, then at least they should leave tonight. And Calleb needed to do some extra work, if they didn't want their visit considered as trespassing the other territory. The time was so tight for Calleb to execute the preparation, if this meeting really had to be done.
Raphael looked at Calleb helplessly. "Could you change his mind?"
Calleb shook his head. "Of course not."
"Can you defy his order?"
"No."
"Can you say 'no' to him?" Raphael asked again, crossing his arms in front of his broad chest.
"No."
"Stop complaining and just do it then."
Calleb. "…"
