Chapter 955: I can do as i please
"Go on then!"
"Right!"
"No, listen to me!"
"We are going to wedge them in! That's what we do! From this side and that side, we just wedge them in!"
"…And squeeze them out!"
"Wedge them in?! Is that your plan?!"
That was the quarrel Dmitri heard the moment he entered the meeting room. It went without saying that his people were arguing about nothing again, forgetting that he was the leader here.
The hierarchy for the vampires was a little bit different from the pack for the lycanthropes and werewolves, they couldn't subdue those vampires with their Alpha's tone, instead of that, those vampires must be subjected to fear, only then could they be put in order.
"Shut up!"
"Stop!"
Dmitri slammed opened the door and let his presence stop the fight between his people.
"WHAT NOW!?" He roared in anger, glaring at them one by one.
Inside this room were five leaders of five different vampire clans, who were throwing snarky remarks toward each other and was about to tear one another apart.
The two vampires, who just quarreled a moment ago, lowered their heads and glanced at Dmitri in ashamed before one of them informed him.
"We have found the sanctuary of those lycans, we should attack them now!" the vampire named Xerxes roared. "We can attack them and kill their mates, the same thing that they had been doing to many shifters all this while!"
They just got information about the sanctuary of the lycanthropes in one of the property of the earth dragon shifters, from what they heard, inside that building, were important people kept under protection of some lycan warriors.
The mates of lycan warriors.
Though they were apart, but the lycans would feel it when they lost their mates and it would be a great disadvantage to them along with the chaotic situation that they had to face since the humans now were aware of the non- human existence.
"No!" the other vampire, named Lhogos retorted. "We should wait for the devils, it will be easier for us to wipe them out if those devils made their move on them first!"
"Beelzebub is not here!" Xerxes bit back. "She was gone for a long time and I am tired of waiting!"
Since the fight in the forest of the northern coven realm, when they fought the youngest sibling of the Donovans and was defeated, Beelzebub went to the other realm to chase her prey and had not come back until now.
The devil woman had joined her fellow devils and busied herself with annoying the crap out of the lycanthropes.
Actually, it was a good thing, but the vampires and the witches from the northern coven realm wanted to taste the victory over the lycanthropes too.
"We must annihilate their entire race!" Xerxes yelled, which was supported by the other two vampires behind him. "We shouldn't rest until we have destroyed their final sanctuary!"
And Dmitri really considered those options. He had grown tired of waiting for Beelzebub to come too… maybe this was time for them to make their own decisions. After all, they should rule their own kind and shouldn't let other creatures to mind their business too much.

"You?" Raine squinted her eyes when she watched Serefina, who was standing not too far from her, folding her arms arrogantly. "What do you want now? Why did you bring me here?"
"Why? To reminisce old times?" Serefina raised her eyebrows and looked at Raine with a boring gaze. "Move your body and follow me."
Raine was about to ask how she could stop the time when they were inside Hope's room, but then she remembered that Serefina was able to master the power of the three guardian angels, not only her, but the devils too, though they had not used it yet.
Raine gritted her teeth upon learning that fact.
Along with that realization, she also realized something else. There was this one time when the time stopped even though Raine did nothing to result in it, so it must be Serefina, right?
"Where are you taking me?" Raine followed her reluctantly, since she didn't want to be in this desert alone.
"Stop complaining and just follow me," Serefina grumbled, and it was just like replaying the old days again.
"I will not move an inch if you don't tell me where you want to take me," Raine said stubbornly as she stopped walking before folding her arms in front of her chest.
The witch turned around and glared at her, she looked like she was about to lash out, but for some reason she held back her sharp tongue and talked rigidly.
"Time is a very dangerous thing. You can't play with it," she said.
"What do you mean?" Raine frowned, she didn't expect to get a lecture from her, because all she needed now was an explanation.
"I see you already tap into your power now," Serefina replied. "And I remember that I have told you that I will train you to control it."
Raine squinted her eyes dangerously. "I don't need a traitor to teach me anything."
Serefina chuckled upon hearing that. "I will give you one or two lessons then, if you don't want me to train you." She smirked viciously. "It doesn't seem like you can refuse what I have to give to you."
"I want to go back. Now," Raine replied. If Serefina only wanted to torture her, she didn't want to follow this witch anywhere.
"You are welcomed to leave," Serefina said, shrugging her shoulders nonchalantly. "If you can," she added.
Raine was silent for a moment, as if she was concentrating on something, but with each passing minute, the crease between her brows only deepened.
"Why are you still here? I thought you want to go immediately?" she asked tauntingly.
"What did you do to me?" Raine didn't feel like herself and she was not able to tap into her power.
"You are nothing but a soul under my mercy, Raine, and this realm is mine. I can do as I please." Serefina used Hope's power on her and brought Raine's soul to travel back to the past.
