Chapter 691 - INSIDE THE WOODS

Hope shifted her attention toward her mate, her brows wrinkled as she bit her lips, hesitated to answer him. "I don\'t know… but, she is calling for me."

"Why is she calling you?" Kace couldn\'t make sense with Hope sudden outburst. They were sleeping and all of sudden she was awake and talking nonsensical things like this.

"Because she is alone there. Afraid and vulnerable…" Hope was also confused with her own answer, but that was what she felt. She called for her and she needed to come.

Kace gazed at the dense trees and saw Chiron was approaching them, along with the other centaurs because of the commotion they caused. "What is she?"

Hope seemed like she was in deep thought. "Human…?" she answered with uncertainty.

"There is no human will be able to do that." Kace shook his head. Whatever inside the dense trees, it was not human. That was for sure. There was no human here except the people that with them, the villagers.

"What happened?" Chiron asked them when he was close enough.

"Hope heard someone in the dense," Kace answered.

"You heard someone in the dense?" Even Chiron was confused. How she was able to hear someone when the centaurs and shifters couldn\'t pick any sounds whatsoever?

Hope grew more agitated by the passing seconds. "Kace, please…" she implored with her eyes because she was frustrated to explain it.

Kace sighed deeply. "I will go over there to check on it, but you shouldn\'t come near. Understood?"

Hope didn\'t have a choice. "Understood." After all, she kicked up a fuss in the middle of the night and was not able to explain herself.

"But, if I found whatever there is dangerous, there will be no negotiation."

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

Raine didn\'t know how long it had been when she woke up, but the feeling that surrounded her didn\'t seem right, the comfortable bed inside her tent had turned into rough grass, which scratched her skin.

The air, which had been warm and sweet, was now cold and eerie.

Raine stirred slowly, but when she sensed the change of her environment, she immediately sat up. Her big obsidian eyes, opened widely, taking her new situation.

"Torak?" Raine whispered, calling her mate and when she realized she was alone with no one nearby, fear crept in her heart. She whimpered and stood up in alert.

Raine was in the middle of the woods and didn\'t know how she could get here. The last thing she remembered was lying down beside Torak and fell asleep.

Raine pressed her back against a tree behind her and tilted her head to see a huge, nearly full moon in the night sky. She tried to calm her breath and think about what she had to do, assessing her circ.u.mstances.

After all, it was not her first time being in this kind of situation, jumping from one place to another or going back and forth between past and present.

From the look of it, apparently Raine just teleported herself to different place, which she could sigh in relieve, thus the next thing that she had to do was to find out where she was and get back to Torak.

Sound like a plan for Raine, yet in the middle of the night and in this unknown woods, it would be wise for her to not roam around and wait until the sun came up.

But, this stillness scared her. Raine was completely aware that she was alone.

[Torak…] Raine tried to reach him through the mind link, but there was no respond. It seemed she was too far, so she couldn\'t reach him. Yet, she tried again. [Torak where are you?]

Raine rocked herself back and forth to calm herself, pressing her legs against her chest and rested her chin on her knees.

If the quietness was not enough to frighten her, Raine started to hear rustling sounds from the bushes on her left side.

Something was approaching her and whatever it was, this thing was very fast!

When Raine was considering her options between ran away and stayed, hiding herself behind the trees, she watched a white lycan emerged from the bushes.

Its white fur bathed under the moonlight, magnificently.

Raine froze, relief coursed through her body, yet it didn\'t last for long time, because the moment her eyes met with the beast dark ones, she knew right away that the white beast was not Torak.

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

"What do you mean Kace was hurt?" Jedrek asked Killian. Apparently, the mind reader forgot to mention this in his last report.

"I am not really sure if this is true, after all he was injured after nearly beating me to death," Killian complained, "but, from what I heard Maximus asked a fae\'s help to create poison to weaken him. But, I don\'t know what kind of poison was that."

"Do you think he has a chance to use it on him?" Eaton asked, he was standing beside Jedrek in his study room, where only the three of them left after the meeting with the other six generals and Beta Lyrus.

"I think there was a fight, because Maximus was injured and stayed away from your younger sibling for some time." Killian tried to remember that piece of information.

Eaton raised his brows and commented. "Wow! I thought Kace had the softest heart of the three of you, but I was wrong. As expected of Donovans." Eaton looked Jedrek, who was in deep thought. "You should call him back. Maximus I meant. Now Torak is going to meet Kace, he will not stand a chance against the two of them. This will only create misunderstanding on your part."
