Chapter 683 - YOU HAVE TO FACE IT
It had been two months since Kace stayed with the centaurs after spending a few months to track them down and it was not an easy feat to find them, especially when he didn\'t have a single clue about where they whereabouts.
Meanwhile, though Hope\'s health condition progressed a little slowly, but she looked better than months ago when the first time Kace found the centaurs and the people in the village that travelled together with them.
"What are you thinking?" Hope was holding Kace\'s face with both of her hands, implored him to meet her eyes. She knew there was something bothered her mate since days ago.
They were inside their tent. One of the reasons why it was so hard to track the centaurs was because they kept moving to avoid Beelzebub and her minion, the dark witches and the vampires.
"Nothing," Kace murmured, but his voice was not convincing enough even to his own ears.
"If you want to be a liar, than you should learn it better." Hope frowned and laid back on her pillow, as Kace covered her with blanket.
Kace sighed and lay down beside his mate. "The future. When we can stop running and live peacefully." He put his arms behind his head as Hope crept closer to him. The night was slightly chilly than the nights before.
"Then, maybe we should stop running and face it." Hope tilted her head to look at Kace\'s disagree expression. "I don\'t know about this war between your kind and the devils, but I don\'t think running away is the answer." Hope blinked her eyes sleepily, he got tired very quickly due to his weak condition. "Maybe Serefina can help me."
"She said she cannot." Kace wouldn\'t run away from the witch if she could do something about Hope\'s condition, but she couldn\'t, and instead Serefina was talking about the upcoming war. That kind of topic really irritated him.
"Maybe she could think about something else?" Hope yawned, her eyelids started to drop and she knew this argumentation wouldn???t last for long time, thus she said between her drowsiness. "I want to go back home and meet my friends."
Hope didn\'t have a lot of friends here, or Kace could say she didn\'t have any. Most of the time she would play with Bree, as the other villagers was older than he or too young to be her friends.
"Can I come? I bring her medicine." Lidya\'s voice travelled into the tent. The witch had been staying with the centaurs and the villagers since they were separated because of Serefina\'s order.
Kace had made sure she didn\'t contact Serefina and reveal he and Hope\'s whereabouts, although he couldn\'t do anything if she did it. However, during this time, Serefina had still not been able to find them, which meant she had kept her promise.
"Sure," Kace said softly. He glanced at Hope, who was sleeping now.
There was a rustling sound of the cloth being raised when Lydia entered the tent. She brought a bowl of black liquid in her hand and glanced at the sleeping girl.
"I will give it to her when she is awake." Kace readjusted Hope\'s blanket and stood up. "I have something to discuss with you."
Kace took another glance at Hope before he let Lydia to go first.
"Are you sure, it is safe for us to go back to Uzu mountain?" The Lycan was standing in front of his tent as the chilly night wind blew against his face.
"I don\'t know about the Uzu mountain, but I assure you something is happening in the other realms and Beelzebub is no longer there." Despite being stuck here, Lydia had another way to gain information.
"What is happening?" Kace frowned. He had been really reluctant when Chiron decided to go back to the Uzu mountain to retrieve the priestess\'s body and the other children who had died because of the devil.
However, he knew they had to do that to respect what the priestess had done to them. After all, it was her spirit who had helped Kace and the other when the confrontation with the vampires and witches broke out.
Lydia crossed her arms in front of her chest, lowering her head. She was in deep thought. "I don\'t know if this is possible."
"What is it?" From the way Lydia was hesitated to tell him, he could feel it, it was something unpleasant.
Lydia raised his head and her eyes met Kace\'s. "I think the gates to Tartarus is already open."
"What?" Kace furrowed his brows. "That\'s impossible," he objected it strongly.
"I do think the same," Lydia said. "But, that is what I heard."
This news could only mean one thing for Kace; Serefina would look for him relentlessly, she wouldn\'t stop until she got him and Hope.
However, in the other hand, Kace realized how foolish of him to run away from this fate. Just like what Hope had said; if they couldn\'t run from it, the only way left for them was to face it.
When Kace was in deep thought, he felt someone tugged on his clothes and he found Bree, staring at him with her bright eyes.
"I want to see Hope," she said childishly.
"Sure, but she is sleeping, don\'t wake her up, okay?" Kace tousled the girl\'s hair.
"I will be quiet," she whispered before ran into the tent.
==============
"Do you think she will like me?" Raine was crouching down in front of her backpack, tomorrow they would leave to the northern coven, to look for Torak\'s younger brother and his mate, the guardian angel.
"No one can hate you my love." Torak kissed her temple, as he helped her to packing.
"Coming from you, it doesn\'t sound convincing." Raine pouted her lips. "I am really excited to meet with the other guardian angel!"
Torak chuckled. He would handle this matter with his brothers and would not spoil his mate\'s joy, because he knew Kace would not be easy to talk to.
