"What should I explain to you about sacrifice?" Lilac squinted her eyes at her mate. She bit her lower lip to prevent herself from losing control.
Instead of listening to her, Jedrek grabbed her wrist and stepped even closer until he could feel her warm body.
"Let's end this," Lilac said grimly and watched as Jedrek shook his head.
"Please Lilac... Don't do this to me..." Jedrek begged her.
"You know what will happen to me in the end. This is not something that you can change..." Lilac reminded him again.
"But, will you come back to me?" Jedrek noticed the uncertainty in Lilac's eyes and felt suffocated, for he already knew what her answer would be.
He didn't want to hear it from her...
What was he supposed to do with this situation? It was selfish of him to still wanting her to stand beside him after what he had done. After he broke her heart and made her suffer, going through all the hellish pain that she didn't deserve...
However, Jedrek wanted to be selfish for one last time. He couldn't deny the fact that he needed her. He needed his mate, his queen...
He couldn't make Lilac happy when she was with him, but he still wanted her nonetheless...
Couldn't he be selfish for one last time? He wanted her so bad, but the way she looked at him, made Jedrek's heart stop beating, because the meaning of her gaze was killing him from the inside...
"Lilac..." Jedrek gritted his teeth and pleaded to his mate. "I beg you..."
No one ever heard that word from the king. Jedrek would never utter that word no matter what.
No matter how bad the situation might turn out for him, no one ever heard him begging someone for something...
But, right at this moment, when Jedrek begged Lilac, it showed how desperate the king was in trying to have his queen by his side.
To have her come back to him again after all of this over, so that they could start everything from the beginning.
Yet, Lilac didn't seem to be having the same idea as him. Because she still couldn't make up her mind and was still conflicted with her own feelings.
"You don't have to say that," Lilac said, her heart ached to see the pain in Jedrek's eyes, as if he meant every word he said.
Maybe he did.
However, Lilac couldn't help but think that it was the mate bond between them that was making him say those, the bond that was so strong until Jedrek couldn't avoid her even though he loved Serefina very much...
The bond that bound them together, despite what they felt for each other. The bond that clouded their true feelings.
It almost felt like whatever they had before was only an illusion, like a castle that was built from sand...
And Lilac didn't think she wanted to go through all of that again when she had a chance to be free from it.
Lilac still couldn't forget the way Jedrek looked at Serefina with love in his eyes and how he hugged her while whispering in to the witch's ears.
Yes, it was all over now.
There would be no more Serefina in their life... But, the feelings were still lingering and for Lilac, the pain was still afresh. She was afraid of trying again, as the wound in her heart was still bleeding.
Lilac just wanted to focus on what they had to do now and end this tiring war once and for all.
"This is not you who's talking," Lilac said in a hoarse voice. "This is the mate bond, which was making you feel the want to keep me beside you."
"Lilac... give me one last chance." The king knelt before his queen and this was the second time he knelt for her.
The first was when he had to save her life and the second time was to save what the remaining feelings that they had.
If there was still something left for them to be saved...
Lilac bit her lip when she saw how Jedrek bent his knees for her, again, begging her as if she was the love of his life, which Lilac very well knew that was not the case...
Therefore, Lilac didn't want to prolong this and make everything difficult for both of them, thus she opened her palms and created a waving motion, which pushed Jedrek away from her and forced the Alpha to be thrown a few meters away from his mate.
"LILAC!" Jedrek roared and immediately stood up when he watched in horror how Lilac cut her own fingers and blood started dripping from her open wounds.
The very blood which later stained the empty book and turned it into a black color. This did not make any sense at all!
Why did Lilac become so heartless until she could not even give Jedrek a chance to mend the mistakes that he had made?
Why wasn't she willing to give him any chance? She just went ahead with her own plan with the thought of ending all of this, and then disappear from his sight once and for all...
On the other hand, Lilac hissed when the pain from her hand made her eyes clearer as the blood that was dropped on to the empty book turned it darker.
The guardian angel ignored the searing pain from her mate when she finally determined to finish this.
No one would ever imagine how Lilac could keep up with this complicated feelings...
And then, before Jedrek could reach her, something happened and this was not something that he had expected, not even in his wildest dreams.
Jedrek stood there in shock as he watched the supposed to be floor, was now burning in fire, the flames licked the air around them and turned the room more humid and warm.
In an instant, the coldness that Lilac felt before, disappear as she felt the heat of the fire warming up her whole body.
Jedrek thought the flames would burn Lilac alive, but he was wrong, because the flames only lasted for a few seconds before disappearing completely, as if everything that he just saw was only in his mind.
"Lilac! Are you all right?!" Jedrek didn't even waste a second to reach his mate before doing a brief check on her.
Only when he was sure that she was all right, could Jedrek sigh in relief and hugged her body tihgtly. His body began trembling, when the thought of losing his mate almost made his heart stop beating.
Jedrek stared in disbelief at the room before his eyes, which was on fire just a few seconds ago.
"What was that?" Jedrek could hear his voice which was laced with anxiety as he demanded an explanation from her.
Meanwhile, Lilac in his arms only stared blankly at the empty book that had reverted back to its original color. No longer as black as it appeared a few seconds ago when it absorbed Lilac's blood.
"It's over now," Lilac said, muddleheaded, as she let Jedrek hug her however he wanted.
Lilac could feel that that her time was almost up. She had done this part of her task, but there was one last thing she needed to finish.
Whether they managed to seal the devils inside the realm that belong to Hope, was out of her reach.
They could only hope that Hope would do her part smoothly and all of the sacrifices that had cost them wouldn't go to waste.
"Let's go... we have one last place that we needed to visit," Lilac said softly, wriggling her body away from Jedrek so she could get away from the spark and the intoxicating smell of her mate.
Jedrek knew what that place was...
And that would indeed be the last...
==============
Hope felt it.
It was a burning sensation that crawled on her skin, making her gasp in surprise before she felt her eyes became heavier and heavier as the sound of Kace's voice gradually becoming a whisper, before it was completely gone.
On the other hand, Kace watched in horror as Hope closed her eyes when her breath turned shallow.
"No! Hope?" Kace shook her body and his brows creased when he didn't get any reaction from his mate.
Hope closed her eyes and didn't seem like she would wake up any soon.
However, that was not the most terrifying thing that he had realized, because even though it was only a small detail that could be easily missed out, but Kace still caught the sound of Hope's heartbeat as it grew weak and then eventually stopped.
It was bad...
And Kace felt like his heart was dropped to the floor.
==============
Lilith appearance was so sudden that rendered the two beasts on Raine left and right sides unable to react right in time.
Yet, Raine didn't even budge when Lilith wrapped her cold fingers around her neck. Instead, she stared at her indecisively and smirked, as if she had expected this.
The guardian angel's reaction was totally out of her expectations, thus the beautiful devil crinkled her perfect brows and stared deeply into Raine's eyes when the guardian angel gripped her wrist.
"This is over." Raine smiled as she felt a warm sensation wash over her body.
She didn't know this, but for some reason she knew right in her heart that Lilac had already done her part and Hope was about to do whatever it took to finish hers.
Only then, would it be Raine's turn and the guardian angel was more than ready to see the end of it...
Lilith tried to fasten her grip on Raine's neck, in hopes of breaking it, but the guardian angel did something entirely unprecedented...
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
