Chapter 951: Out!
Chapter 951: Out!
"Not now, there is something that I have to do first," Hope said and she could see the disappointment that flashed on Kace's face when she said she was not able to come back with him, thus she tiptoed and pecked his lips. "I will come back soon, just wait for me."
After saying that, Hope walked away in the opposite direction from Kace, who was still standing in the same position, waving his hand.
She didn't know how she know this, but it was like the knowledge was already ingrained in her every cell, like something that she had forgotten, but then she remembered about it again.
Hope hastened her steps when Kace's figure looked smaller because of the distance between them, as if she could see a path in front of her and not just only the color of bright white.
But, at some point, she stopped running when she could no longer see Kace in her near sight and was totally surrounded by this color.
Hope took a deep breath, even though she just ran for sometime, her breathing was still normal and she wasn't even panting. It was strange, yet at the same time expected.
Closing her eyes, she whispered softly into the nothingness. "Lilac… Raine…"
==============
Jedrek looked at his furious mate in disbelief. Why did they came to this again?!
"Can't you see? I just want to keep you safe!" Jedrek roared, annoyed by Lilac's stubbornness. "Calm down woman!"
Lilac threw him a sharp look as she retorted back. "I will calm down if you agree to talk about this!"
"There is nothing to talk about!" Jedrek was beyond frustrated with Lilac's behavior.
Meanwhile, upon hearing the commotion, two guards from outside, opened the door in alert, they were stationed just next to the door to watch over the situation.
"Is everything all right, your majesty?" One of them addressed the angry couple, his eyes roamed around the room quickly, looking for any threat.
However, he didn't expect that the real threat for him was from his sovereign himself.
"OUT!" Jedrek and Lilac shouted simultaneously.
On other occasions, it might have looked funny when they both spoke almost at the same time, but not now, when they looked like they wanted to throw anyone, If someone dared enough to interrupt their fight.
The two guards stumbled over their own feet upon hearing the loud order, they didn't ask any further neither did they think twice to run out of the room.
The king and queen at this very moment, looked scarier than any deadly creatures from hell.
Meanwhile, when only the two of them were left alone again and the guards had shut the door, Jedrek and Lilac shifted their attentions onto one another again.
"Jedrek, you know that I will not agree with your decision, that was why you left me out of every discussion concerning the war, is that true?" Lilac just realized this. Jedrek had fooled her from the very beginning.
Raine and Hope would be very understanding if they were not included in the meetings that the Donovans held with the other Alphas, but Lilac was different, she knew her purpose of life from the very beginning, as she was raised by the moon goddess herself.
She knew that things would come to this, all she needed to do?was to figure it out and even if giving her life was necessary to end the war, she was ready for that too.
Therefore, she had told Jedrek that he could choose Serefina over her, from the very beginning, but time had changed everything, including hearts of every one involved…
And here they were, conflicting with their fate and love… making everything more complicated.
"D*mn with the moon goddess!" Jedrek cursed grimly. "She gave me you and put the mate bond between us, but then she wanted to make you sacrifice yourself?!" He was very angry at this fact.
"Jedrek, you can't possibly lose the war, but you don't want to win it either?" Lilac creased her brows. "Do you think you can keep the situation like this forever? How many lives would be wasted out there?"
"So, what do you want me to do?!" Jedrek roared. "Watch you jump into the crater?!" he shook his head. "Do you think my brothers will agree to this idea?"
Jedrek could realize what Lilac had seen when she touched the stone, therefore, he knew what would lie ahead of them if he let her do whatever she needed to do.
Somehow, the obvious slipped from Lilac's mind when she quarreled with Jedrek.
Knowing she wouldn't be able to talk to Jedrek now, she walked ahead and waved her hands, as roots that emerged from the floor coiled around Jedrek's body, keeping him in his position.
"I will find Raine and Hope to hear what they will say about this," Lilac said in a low voice, her expression turned dark.
"No!" Jedrek refused that idea and tore the roots around his body easily, as if it was nothing for him.
Lilac frowned when she saw this. Why did her power become weak when she had to face Jedrek? Her power also seemed didn't have much effect on Jedrek, when he kissed her for the first time on that night…
Of course, this fact pissed Lilac off.
Selene, why would you give me such power, but made him as an exception? Lilac thought annoyingly when she watched Jedrek trudging over to her, not even having any idea that Lilac became more upset toward him.
"NO!" Lilac yelled angrily, she tried to make him stop, but Jedrek stomped the roots beneath his feet, not getting affected at all.
Jedrek didn't see Lilac's effort to keep him away and the moment she was within his arm reach, he grabbed her hand to stop sending him those things.
"Stop it! Will you!?" Jedrek was upset too.
However, before Lilac could rebuke him for hurting her hand, as he held it too tight for her comfort, she heard some voice whispering into her ears.
The sound was very faint, until Lilac doubted that Jedrek could hear it. However, she could tell that this was Hope's voice.
The voice whispered her name and the last thing that Lilac could see was Jedrek's shocked expression before everything whitened in her vision.
