Chiron entered the room not long after Serefina left, and his eyes directed to the tray filled with food for Kace, which he didn't touch at all. 

His hooves tapped the ground softly when he walked closer. 

"I heard you will return to your realm," Chiron started. His eyes fell on Hope's pale face, the girl had not yet woken up ever since that day. 

The centaur did not know how she came here, but apparently the witch named Lydia had brought the girl here, and that fact alone had incurred Serefina's wrath. Well, she taught her fellow witch a good lesson the first thing she did when she woke up. 

Now, she sent Lydia to escort the centaurs and threatened her that she would hunt her down if Lydia dared to do otherwise without her permission. 

The mighty witch Serefina was truly scary when she showed how she meant her threat.Not even her old friend was spared. 

"That's not even my realm to begin with," Kace spoke softly, as his blue eyes fixed on Hope. 

Just like the centaur, the realm where the humans lived, had never been the place where he belonged. Both of them were forced to leave their realm because of their circ.u.mstances. 

On the other hand, Chiron didn't argue with him about his statement as he took Serefina's place before, and gazed down at Hope. 

"I think she will be fine, when she is strong enough, she will come back to you," Chiron said as he placed fresh daisies beside Hope. "Beautiful flowers for a new beginning."

Kace looked at the flower and nodded. "Thank you," then he added. "She will love it."

"How is the wound on your back?" though it was Kace, who asked him to come, but since the beginning it was Chiron, who tried to engage the conversation with him. 

"It heals," he said tersely.

Kace was reluctant to talk about his wounds, because it reminded him about what had happened and how it almost cost Hope's life. 

"Good to hear that," Chiron nodded. 

There was silence between them. Meanwhile, Chiron no longer talked and Kace had not started to speak about his intention to call the centaur. 

"I am sorry," Kace finally broke the silence between them.His eyes shifted to the centaur before him. He looked exactly like the leader of the centaurs from centuries ago, whose mate had been killed by him. 

This was not the first time Kace apologized to Chiron about what he had done.But this time, the apology came from the experience that he had to go through.Just to know how much agony it cost him that he had to pay for almost losing his mate.

Kace knew how it felt now.

"It happened," Chiron said with a straight face, it was unsure whether he forgave him or not. Maybe the centaur had been treating them extremely well, but forgiveness was a complicated feeling. 

It was akin to someone, who was able to smile brightly in front of the person that they hate. Hypocrites? Yes. However, sometimes we did that multiple times. 

In Chiron's case, the centaur just thought that no matter how much he hated Kace, it would never bring his mate back to life. Not to mention, the cause of death of his mate was not entirely Kace's fault

"I am glad you still have her, there are no creatures who deserve to go under such pain," Chiron said wisely, but it was like a salty water that was poured on Kace's wounds. "You should cherish her."

"I will," Kace replied with an expression devoid of emotion. "And thank you for everything that you have done for us." It was the most sincere gratitude that Kace showed to him. 

Chiron studied the beast in front of him, but he was not the arrogant beast that he met before.Neither was he the young man that despised himself most of the time. The man before him was like someone who had learnt something, and whatever it was, Chiron hoped it would ease his burden. 

After Chiron felt there was nothing that they needed to talk about, he excused himself. 

It was indeed a very short conversation with limited words, but the feeling of that brief moment was what counted the most. 

"Don't forget your meal, Serefina will throw some tantrum if you skipped it again," Chiron reminded him lightly. "The journey ahead was very long." 

Kace didn't respond to him, but at least the centaur knew that he was listening. 

When Kace was alone again with Hope, he took off his shoes and climbed on the bed.Carefully, he cradled her in his arms as he fell asleep with her unique scent lingered his senses. It gave a calm effect for his tense nerves. 

It didn't take a long time before Kace gave up to his tiredness and his eyes betrayed him. 

============== 

When the morning sun illuminated the village, the first thing that one could see was two parties exchanging their farewell, in front of the entrance gate of the village. 

Lydia had to go with the centaurs or else, Serefina's would release her wrath and finish her off without a second thought.But before that, to appease the angry of her old friend, Lydia told her everything about what Hope was capable to do. 

Hope was talking, and able to see the spirit of the dead. It could only mean that the girl had awakened her own abilities without the guidance of others. It was still a mystery for Serefina about how those angels could revive their power.

Maybe life and death experience, and also extreme circ.u.mstances could provoke their strength to come to the surface?

Serefina had an idea to try this on Torak's mate as well…

"I think this is a goodbye," Chiron smiled with Carina beside him, looking at the other parties solemnly. 

"We will meet again," Kace said. Somehow, he knew they would meet again. 

"I hope so," Chiron nodded politely, he called their name one by one before he excused himself and his small group, leaving that place. 

"Let's go." Serefina didn't want to stay any longer in that place too.
