"You are running away Kace." Maximus approached Kace and Serefina in steady steps. With him, there were five more Lycanthropes behind him.
All of them were warriors from the castle, people under Maximus. They way they walked cautiously toward Kace, indicating that they were ready to fight if it was necessary.
Kace glanced at Serefina. Well, at least he wasn't alone, there was the great witch with him. He was sure that Serefina could handle them just fine.
Kace had never seen Serefina as someone who needed protection, as she was always able to handle herself very well.
"No, Max." Kace shook his head. "I meet an old friend." He nodded at Serefina and she rolled her eyes dramatically.
"I see…" Maximus stopped a few meter away from them. "So, the rumor is true that both of you betray the Alpha."
Serefina frowned. "Betray the Alpha?" she looked over at Kace to ask for explanation.
Kace shrugged his shoulder nonchalantly. "There was a rumor about you when you left the realm." Serefina's eyes told him to continue, so Kace made a brief explanation about that. "I don't know the idiot who had spread the rumor that we are a lover."
Serefina's jaw dropped. "Lover?" She scrunched her nose. "With you?" the way she spoke her last words were laced with disgust. "Please, spare my wretch life."
"You don't have to show me that expression, you know." Kace was irritated by Serefina's exaggerated reaction. "You can see it now and report it to my dear brother about this reaction." Kace shifted his attention to Maximus. "That was a genuine respond from use upon hearing that stupid accusation."
Kace and Serefina treated that as a joke, but Maximus and his people behind him, didn't have the same sense of humor like the two.
"Why don't you come back and explain it yourself." Maximus suggested wisely. "I am sure the Alpha will be very happy to see his mate and his brother."
Though it sounded sweet, but Maximus's words were wrapped with a thick sarcasm.
"I have never asked him to stay." Serefina crossed her arms defensively while smiling at Kace beside her. "You are free to go."
It was true that Serefina asked Kace to come to meet his mate, but the choice to see her or not was on him. Kace could just ignore the sign, but he did come.
"No, thanks." Kace raised both of his arms, surrender. "Just say hi to my brother for me, will you? Tell him that I meet Serefina to exchange greeting, but after that we will go in different way."
"That's so funny, Kace." Maximus spoke coldly.
"No, it's not." Kace shook his head, disagreed. "Did you see me or she laughed?"
Serefina was holding back her smile when she heard the way Kace bit back at the leader of this search party. The witch had known Maximus as the last male in the Gregory family, she knew the whole story.
Meanwhile, Maximus eyes turned dark. "I know why you are here. I heard what both of you said a moment ago." A sly smirked appeared on the corner of his lips. "A mate, huh?"
Kace's careless smile disappeared as his body tensed. "You better stay away from this, Max. I will not be so lenient with you in this realm." Kace used a warning tone when he spoke.
Unfortunately, he wasn't an Alpha and had never been in that position, thus his dominance was quite different from his other brothers, who could easily make those Lycanthropes fell on their knees upon facing his wrath.
Kace was too easy going to be a leader.
But, Maximus still didn't dare to put his guard down. Kace has fickle personality and it wasn't very wise to trigger something dark in him, especially when he had Serefina.
"I don't want to fight." Maximum declared, but Kace snickered when he heard that.
"I thought you always want to fight me." Kace taunted him. "Give yourself merit after merit, so you can clear your family name." Then he added. "I will fight you if it's necessary."
Maximus glared at Kace as his mouth opened slightly to say something, but before there was any words that passed his lips, his eyes glazed over.
It was a sign when Lycanthropes were having conversations through mind link. Apparently the number of the Lycan that he brought with him was not only five.
There were a lot more than that and the rest had been sent to do something.
At the same time, Serefina snapped her head at the direction of the house. Her calm expression morphed into anxious.
"Kace, you need to go inside." Serefina used demanding tone. "They did something to her." The 'her' that Serefina's was referring to was Kace's mate.
Kace didn't ask anything further when he heard panic in Serefina's voice, he knew that Maximus had done something toward his mate.
As soon as Kace took his second step, he bent down his body while his bones cracked to fit his beast form.
"KACE!" Maximus growled.
Seeing Kace was trying to run away toward the house, Maximus immediately gave the other Lycan a cue to chase after him.
However, Kace didn't even bother to turn and checked what was happening behind his back, because he knew Serefina would handle them well.
The sound of angry growl and snarl behind the white beast was the proof of it.
The beast ran as fast as his four big legs could take him. His heart was beating rapidly as his breath ragged and panic washed over his entire being.
Would he be too late to save his mate? Apparently the conversation was only a distraction.
Damn it!
This house is very big, Kace couldn't figure out where was his mate! He couldn't find her!
The beast circled the house, trying to find any sign of his mate when finally he heard a shrill scream from inside the house.
It turned the beast's blood cold.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
