The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 1063: I will count to ten

Chapter 1063: I will count to ten

The guardian angel was lying on the bed, while the lycan was crouching down beside her, looking all down and in foul mood. He didn't even care about the preparations that those people were fussing over, just outside of this tent.

Because his whole life was here and he just wanted to be with the best part of his life right now, with Hope.

With Torak and Raine handling all the people and taking the lead for all of them, Kace could spend more time with Hope, as the guardian angel looked very weak now.

Kace didn't even know how Hope would fight the devils in her current condition, but all he wanted now was to keep her as safe as he could.

He didn't want any harm to come her way at this moment, or at least the harm that could hurt her psychologically.

"I am afraid Hope... what if I lost you, after all of this was over?" Kace lowered his head, and buried his face in Hope's palm, hiding his tears.

"I will come back to you and I promise that..." Hope ran her fingers in his hair and then caressed the side of his face. "I will do everything to come back to you. So, wait for me, okay?"

Kace didn't answer back, he just nodded lightly.

He remembered how he felt the first time he met Hope as a baby. She was very fragile and weak, but he loved her right away.

Maybe it was the mate bond.

However, seeing her growing up into a beautiful girl and experiencing all the things that he had been through with her was an amazing feeling that he didn't ever want to end.

Kace didn't want lose his mate...

He didn't want to lose Hope...

Not even for a minute.

Jedrek was standing in front of Lilac's tent.

He had been standing there for almost half an hour now, but Lilac hadn't yet came out from inside.

But, she couldn't be blamed, according to her words forty five minutes ago, she said that would be ready in an hour. It meant, Jedrek had to wait for another fifteen minutes before he could see her.

Jedrek didn't need to be very impatient, because they would spend the whole journey only with the two of them, alone.

This, somehow, made him feel nervous. He didn't know how to act in front of his own mate.

And even until now, they had not got a chance to have a proper conversation, no one was willing to start one. And when it sounded more easier to think it was the easiest way to deal with their complicated situation, but it was definitely not what they wanted.

It made them awkward and feel uncomfortable whenever they were alone. And this journey could be more uncomfortable if they left things this way.

Jedrek was hesitant when he took a step closer to the door of the tent. He wanted to talk to Lilac, but at the same time, he didn't know how to start it or what he wanted to say to her.

That hesitation kept toying around his mind for another twenty minutes until Lilac came out of her tent, looking as beautiful as always.

Her big eyes widened in surprise when she found Jedrek right outside, waiting for her.

"Sorry to keep you waiting," Lilac murmured and walked past Jedrek.

'I am sorry for hurting you'

Jedrek replied in his mind, but in reality, he didn't say anything as he followed Lilac and kept his eyes on her figure, staring at her back. Half wishing the guardian angel would look back, just to check whether he was following or not.

But, Lilac had not done that. She kept walking forward. Not even once she looked back.

And for some odd reason, this hurt Jedrek. He felt like he was Lilac's past that the guardian angel didn't want to dwell on.

"Can I come in?" Raine stood in front of a small tent, which was occupied by Calleb.

After that scary night when Raine successfully brought Calleb back and calmed his beast down, it didn't make the Beta feel any better.

He was still succumbing himself into the deep hole of sorrow and rejected to see anyone, except Raine. Even Torak couldn't make him step out of his tent.

Calleb took sanctuary in this small space, he needed some alone time, but no one knew how long it would take for him to be his care free self again.

Meanwhile, Raine still stood outside of the tent for another few minutes because she couldn't hear any response from inside.

"Hey, I will count to ten, if you still refuse to answer me, I will go inside," Raine said, pouting her lips because she felt being ignored by him. "Ten, coming in."

Missing the count of one to nine, Raine went straight to ten and entered the tent.

But, once she was inside and her eyes fell on Calleb's figure, she shrieked and turned her body around while shutting her eyes tightly.

"Calleb!" Raine exclaimed loudly. "If you are changing, say it so, at least I wouldn't have to contaminate my eyes by seeing your naked body!"

Calleb was not really naked, he just wore his boxers and was about to put on a shirt and a pair of pants when Raine entered the tent.

"I thought you will count to ten," Calleb replied offhandedly. He didn't look uncomfortable to make Raine uncomfortable. "Where did you learn to count like that?"

Raine huffed, she crossed her arms in front of her chest and opened her eyes, only to stare at the innocent wooden wall before her eyes deadly.

"I thought you were sleeping." No one would sleep at this hour and Raine knew that Calleb wouldn't either. "Are you done?"

Calleb scoffed. "This is not the first time you have seen a man naked, don't be shy."

Upon hearing that, Raine turned around and glared at Calleb, who fortunately had put on his pants and was about to wear his shirt.
