The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 1075: This is the time (3)

Raine noticed the white beast and the brown beast that came closer to her, while the other creatures were frozen in their places, not able to move because Raine had stopped the time for them.

Not only the humans, but also the creatures from the hell as well.

Right now, those creatures that had stolen her power, were not able to overpower the true owner of the power who it actually belonged to.

However, Raine's task did not just end there, as the last step was the most crucial and hardest one of all.

Raine watched the white beast turn into his human form and soon Calleb followed suit. Torak stepped forward to approach the guardian angel, but Raine raised her hands to stop him.

Meanwhile, Calleb face twisted in disgust at the sight of horrifying devil, who was wailing sorrowfully, crying upon her figure. Her figure that would never change no matter what, because Raine had taken her human form from her.

Indeed they couldn't kill the devils, but at least Raine could do this to Lilith and Hope could seal them away.

However, all of that came at a great expense and now they would finally face the end of it…

"My love…" Torak stopped walking when Raine took a step back, avoiding him. "What happened?" He was confused.

The war had already ended and Torak could tell it for sure when he saw how Raine overpowered their enemies, while the other shifters killed all the creatures from hell easily, since they couldn't fight back.

This was over and Raine was still alive.

Wasn't that a good news? It was only a matter of time before they started to celebrate the victory. Torak could also see his beautiful future with his mate after all this charade was over.

But, why was Raine acting strangely all of a sudden? She was literally avoiding him now.

"Come here, my love… what are you afraid of?" Torak took a step closer, but Raine took a step back too.

On the other hand, Calleb grabbed a big rock near him and dropped it on the devil, who was still wailing in pain, crying and shouting out all the profanities.

Once the big rock hit her face, the devil stopped crying and disappeared into a thin black smoke, then carried away by the wind.

Lilith definitely didn't die, but she was so weak to even show herself for the time being, especially when the minions that she brought with her had been slaughtered without mercy by the shifters and the magicians.

Above them, the three dragons flew very low and flapped their wings to join the massacre, venting out their frustrations and pain upon the loss that they had endured during the war which was caused by the devils.

It was a great start and a wonderful ending that they could ever wish for after so many losses that they had been through.

Yet, why didn't Raine want to be touched?

Torak was flabbergasted upon seeing the way his mate avoided him. "Did I do something wrong?" Torak asked carefully. Maybe he indeed had done something to upset her…

"Torak… I think this is the time." Raine said in a sad tone. She smiled bitterly at her mate. "I want to make this easier for you, but I don't know how…"

"No. Raine… I don't want this to end like this." Torak took three steps forward, too quick for Raine to dodge him and in the next second, she was already in his arms, being hugged tightly. "Don't do this, my love. Don't leave me," Torak begged her, as if his life depended on it, but he could feel his mate shook her head.

"I don't want to leave your side either, but I have to." Raine could feel it and the answer was crystal clear for her about what she had to do next. This understanding dawned on her as if she had known it from the beginning. Something that she just forgot.

"What should I do to make you stay?" Torak whispered into Raine's ears in a hoarse voice as tears rolled down his face.

It was indeed true that there would be always a first time for everything and the same rule applied to the Supreme Alpha, Torak had never cried before, but he did now and the woman in his arms was the reason for it.

His body trembled, as he tightened his hug, almost suffocating Raine, as though he wanted their bodies to fuse into one, not wanting to be left alone in this chaotic world.

How could he imagine himself roaming around this world without her? He had already done that for centuries, but the two years he spent with Raine would never be able to compare to it.

All of his achievements in those centuries when he was alone started looking dull once Raine stepped in to his life and Torak no longer wanted to live that kind of life.

He needed his mate.

How could he let her go?

"Please, my love… tell me what I should do to make you stay. I will do anything…" Torak was very determined with his words and he meant every single one of them. No matter what it cost to keep Raine by his side forever. "Tell me…" he begged her.

However, Raine just cried silently in his embrace, unable to promise anything to him as she bit her lower lip to prevent herself from crying out loud.

The pain in Torak's voice hurt her as well. She didn't want to see him in such pain.

But, her time was up and there was nothing she could do to prevent it.

Raine could feel her body starting to became very light as her hold on Torak's warm body began to weaken.

"Raine?!" Torak called her name in panic when he felt her body started to disappear, as if he was hugging something very soft and tender. "What is happening?!"

Torak freed her from his embrace and watched with eyes wide open when Raine's body became translucent. In her stead, were dozens of fireflies.

Torak felt like he was hugging a thick mist, as her scent began to disappear, along with her body. "Can you not leave me?"

"If I can, I would choose to be with you…" Raine whispered to him. "I always want to be with you, my love…" That was the first time Raine called him that and it hit Torak's heart so deeply.

Raine then grabbed Torak's shirt and buried her face against his chest, wrapped her arms around his waist, while mumbling, "Torak, will you wait for me?"

"I will," Torak said solemnly. "Make sure to come back to me."

And with that, the fireflies flew in the air, as a soft white mist cascaded down from the sky and engulfed them all.

It was the barrier that separated the supernatural world and the human world, which was broken during the war, but now it was fixed, yet it cost them the guardian angels.

Torak then dropped to his knees, while clutching his chest, feeling the excruciating pain as the mate bond was slowly tearing apart, indicating that Raine was no longer in this world and they would be separated for God knows how long…

Even it was only a slightest hope for Torak to see Raine again, then he would take it, as he knew that his life was only hanging by that thread of hope.

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

Lilac teleported them to the place, where the crater that allowing creatures from hell to enter this realm is situated and all they could do was to face them. Alone.

Jedrek shifted into his white beast and Lilac jumped onto his back, and when Lilac caressed its big head unconsciously while feeling the softness of the white beast's fur against her hands, the beast purred in delight.

It reminded the guardian angel about how much she loved him, but also the pain that she had been through because of him.

Yet, this was not the time for any of that, because their enemies were barring their teeth at them, ready to tear them apart if they didn't move fast enough.

When the first creature from hell moved closer to them, Jedrek raised his claws and tore its body apart, before he charged toward the crater, that was located in the middle of this abandoned place.

This was the same crater through which Raine brought back Torak from Tartarus when Lucifer killed him.

Meanwhile, Lilac used all of her power to assist the white beast, killing the creatures from hell as many as she could.

The two of them moved in sync as if they could read each other minds and understand the next move that one another would make.

Or maybe they indeed can do that.

Lilac opened the path for the white beast, while the beast moved faster toward the crater.

It didn't take a long time before the white beast to arrive at the carter's mouth and Lilac jumped to the ground swiftly and at the very moment Lilac felt a familiar yet strange sensation wash over her body and she knew that Raine was almost done with her task.

It meant, it was her turn…

Lilac's heart began to race when she stood at the edge of the crater and the heat started licking her skin.

Raine was too far from them and the time didn't stop here, like how it happened around Raine, thus the only way to survive from this was to close the craters and it did cost big sacrifices.

Lilac knew what was waiting for her, but to face death head on was a different feeling from anything she could ever imagine.

Lilac closed her eyes to steady her trembling heart. This was what exactly she saw when the stone had answered her unspoken thoughts that time.
