Chapter 852 - THE DAY OF THE EXECUTION (4)

At the first glance, it was cruel and terrifying. But from a reasonable perspective, Lilac released them from their suffering, giving them a swift death. She killed them instantaneously so that they wouldn't suffer any longer and feel humiliated by screaming and crying in agony.

This could be considered as a form of forgiveness from Lilac to them. After all, she was a guardian angel. Although, she was now in her human form, the unique soft hearted feelings possessed by the guardian angels were still embedded in her soul and personality.

And apart from this, it was her first time to kill some one, keeping aside the fact about the small demon that she obliterated as a part of her duty when she was still with Selene.

It felt heavy to take someone's life, not to mention that she took five centaurs' lives at the same time. However, this was possibly the only way in this kind of situation to satisfy both parties, preventing the lycanthropes to question their leader and also release those poor souls from a torturous death.

After she shutting the five centaurs for life, Lilac moved her hand again and the ground beneath the platform cracked splitting into two, making all the people on the platform ran down from that place before they were too swallowed by the dark pit created by Lilac.

A round of loud gasps heard among the people as they moved back to avoid falling into it and the situation turned slightly hectic when they witnessed the power that their new queen could wield.

This could be perceived as a chance that Lilac was making good use to introduce herself properly once again. She didn't want to appear weak and mindless after being kidnapped.

She wanted all the people to see what kind of a queen they were going to serve, also to break the stigma about the weak guardian angels, which had been engraved deeply into their bones.

Aside from that, she wanted to show them that she was their queen not because she was Jedrek's mate, but because she deserved their respect.

It was true that she has a soft heart for not being able to see those five centaurs sufferings, but she wanted to make it clear that she didn't go against it, and prove that she didn't confront Jedrek for the decision that he made in anyway.

In front of them, the ground started caving in again, as it swallowed the whole platform along with the five centaurs, leaving now a big empty space, where the big platform was supposed to be.

Loud murmurs echoed among the people, but when Lilac raised her hand, they stopped talking and turned their full attention toward Lilac.

"This will serve as an example for those who are trying to turn their back against us!" Lilac's voice was neither very loud nor vicious, instead it was soft, carrying a lot of emotions. "I hope not to see this again, but it will definitely not be the last if there are still people with a hidden agenda."

After saying that, Lilac strode back to her seat and sat down gracefully next to Jedrek, she appeared hard on the outside, but the moment she reached out for Jedrek's hand, he could feel her tiny hand trembling.

[Well done, my little flower,] Jedrek mind linked Lilac and this slightly startled her as she turned her head and watched as Jedrek smiled softly at her and kissed the back of her hand.

However, from the corner of her eyes, Lilac could see someone staring at her intently, although he was smiling softly, it didn't reach his eyes and this made her uncomfortable for reasons unknown to her.

It was lord Bayle from the north region, the lord of fire dragons.

It was Lilac's first time seeing him again after the day of the mating ceremony, yet their short encounter managed to leave a deep impression on her.

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

Hope cried silently when she heard the song of the centaurs, that was the song that Carina had taught her a year ago, when she was sick and very weak. She would sing whenever she was busying herself with her treatment. And as for Chiron, he would come to her tent to check on her condition, talking about the stars and everything until she fell asleep, dreaming blissfully.

Chiron and Carina were important people for Hope. They were like family. Chiron's warm and calm voice, while Carina may show a cold demeanor, but she was caring enough to look after her for months. How could Hope forget about them?

From afar, the song sounded full of sadness and bitterness. She wanted it to stop, she wanted to beg them not to kill Chiron and Carina, but how could she do that when she was fully aware about what they had done and the consequences if they didn't punish them the way they did now.

"Hope…" Kace sat down in front of Hope, whose body was trembling. She was sitting behind the door of their bedroom, hugging herself into a fatal position, as if trying not to break apart upon hearing the faint song from the entrance gates of the castle.

"Come here," Kace said, his voice cracked when he watched how deep this hurt his mate.

Kace pulled Hope closer to him and caressed her back as she rested her chin on his shoulder and cried her heart out. Her tears dripped on to his shoulder, wetting his clothes.

"They are gone…" Hope sobbed harder to the point she was having a hard time to breathe.

And the most painful thing that Kace realized now was, he couldn't do anything to elevate her pain, as he too felt the same sorrow when he heard their cry like song.

And right after when the song stopped abruptly, Hope's eyes widened at the sight before her eyes, which left her dumbfounded when she spotted Chiron and Carina standing right in front of her, but their bodies were like faint white smoke, behind the two of them, there were another three centaurs, who were familiar to Hope as well.

Chiron walked toward her and bent his body to kiss her temple as he whispered to her softly; "Don't cry little angel…"
