Chapter 972 - WE WILL FIX THIS TOGETHER

Aeon watched the girl in front of him, who was smiling softly which made him feel a rush of warmth in his heart, and he stretched out his hand toward her.

He didn\'t immediately touch her, but halted his hand mid air, to give the girl an opportunity to avoid his touch if she wanted, but Raine didn\'t do it. She looked at him straight in his eyes, a soft smile was still on her lips when Aeon\'s hand inched toward her cheek.

"How long did you know me for?" He asked, feeling the soft skin of hers on his callous fingers. It was very soft, until he was afraid he would leave a scratch if he wasn\'t careful enough.

"Very long…" Raine said, leaned in to his touch and then wrapped her hand over his. "Since you gave me the cotton candy in the park and then chased away those creatures that wanted to hurt me."

Aeon narrowed his eyes at her. "You have known me for that long?"

"Yes," Raine said, nodded her head. "Thank you for protecting me."

And, only then could Aeon sigh in relief as a smile appeared on his lips, softening his rough features. Whatever he had done all this time had been paid off and his fear was proven wrong. His girl didn\'t fear him, because that was the reason why he always hid from her…

"It is my pleasure to keep you safe," Aeon said gratefully.

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

Jedrek was in the middle of a heated argumentation with the other Alphas and his brothers when he heard that voice.

[Jedrek.]

Jedrek stopped whatever he was doing as he held his breath, stunned, afraid that it was only his imagination.

And because he was in the middle of his speech, and seeing how his expression changed suddenly, all his recipients immediately became silent, as they stared at him questioningly.

[Jedrek.]

Lilac\'s soft voice echoed in his head, once again. She was trying?to talk to him through mind- link, which was quite impossible knowing how far they were and moreover, was she already awake? However, here Jedrek was; listening to her.

[Jedrek, can you hear me?] Lilac asked again.

[Lilac? Is that you?] Jedrek could feel his entire body getting effected just by hearing her voice, he felt his heart almost jumping to his throat.

If she could mind- link him, it meant she had regained her consciousness, right?

"Jedrek, what happened?" Kace, who was standing beside him, tugged his elbow to get his attention, but Jedrek swatted his hand away, he wanted to concentrate more on the voice that he had been longing to hear.

[Yes, it is me,] Lilac said lightly.

[You have woken up.] It was not a question, but a statement. Only when he heard Lilac say \'yes\', could he heave a sigh of relief. He was not even aware that he had been holding his breath. [You scared me, my little flower.]

[I am sorry…] Lilac sounded troubled. [I didn\'t mean to.]

However, Jedrek didn\'t want to hear her sorry, he just wanted to hold her in his arms, yet the situation here, made it impossible for him to flee to her side instantly and Lilac completely understood that.

[I understand.] Lilac said, her voice was sad, but there was understanding and determination in it. [I will take care of the matters here until you can take care of the problems there.]

Jedrek hummed in reply.

[I just want you to know that I am fine and Hope too, but Raine…] Lilac slightly hesitated when she said this.

[What happened to her?] Out of instinct, Jedrek glanced at Torak, who was staring at him. It seemed he knew that he was in the middle of a conversation through mind- link, but didn\'t have any idea that it was his mate, who he was talking to.

[Raine has not regained her consciousness, maybe she needs more time… I just want you to let them know about this and send them here.] Lilac paused, as if she was trying to find the right words to say. [It is a mess.]

Jedrek closed his eyes, as he realized what kind of a mess, their ego had created for them. if they hadn\'t been selfish to the point of neglecting everyone, the situation now would have been less dreadful.

[I know, I am sorry.]

It was so rare to hear Jedrek apologize and Lilac knew it took a lot more than effort for him to do so. After all, the king\'s pride was very high and Jedrek was not the type, who would admit his mistake easily.

Lilac could continue to get angry at him and show her point that she was right all along, but what was the meaning of all that? It wouldn\'t help them with anything and the situation wouldn\'t become better either, thus she chose not to.

[Let\'s fix this together.] she said softly. [We will go through this together.]

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

Ethan pulled Hope behind his back and stood beside Calleb, who was growling at Theseus in front of them.

So now, Hope was hiding behind the two lycans, she peeked over their shoulders and could see that there were around twenty people behind Theseus who now crowded the room.

"What\'s all of this?" Calleb asked in a stern voice, he glanced at the door and knew immediately that more than twenty dragon shifters were out there. If he had his beast, he could definitely kill all of this trash in no time, but unfortunately, he was just like them, who couldn\'t shift into his beast and he was outnumbered.

"Let me take Hope and Raine, and the two of you can go peacefully. I don\'t want to shed blood here." Theseus opened his arms, while saying righteously.

"Your head must be damaged if you think that I will let you have your way," Calleb sneered.

Meanwhile, Hope, who was standing very close to the two of them, felt something. Something that stirred inside their beings. What was that? Their emotions? Because they were beyond livid now, thus was it easier for her to feel them?

Hope frowned and touched their backs again.
