Lana took a step to enter the room, she stood there for a while, staring at the mark on Hope's neck. Grimaced.
Her eyebrows knitted together when she watched the two of them sleep soundlessly.Even Kace was not aware of her presence as he cradled Hope in his arms. Too tired to notice Lana.
Without thinking, Lana took another step towards the bed.
This time, her eyes fell on Kace's black hair, which had fallen over his face. She was not sure of what was in her head then, when she stretched out her hand and brushed Kace's hair aside gently.
Kace looked frail. Vulnerable.
Normal Kace would show the world his bright side, grinning with an intimidating gaze once in a while if he was not in a good mood, and if someone annoyed him.But he would never turn into the brutal beast he was, like for the past few days when they were in the northern coven realm.
However, everything just messed up, and too many things happened in a short amount of time.
Kace now didn't look like his usual self and Lana felt sorry for what he had been through. The always confident and cheerful Kace, now became quiet.
It had been a long time since Lana saw his carefree smile.
Because his mate was in her current condition, Kace was almost like punishing himself for letting this happened to Hope.
No words could calm his anxiety, and somehow, Lana could feel she was mad at Hope for making Kace like this.
It was wrong. Lana knew, yet she couldn't help it.
Lana let her gaze roamed over Kace's face, admiring how perfect he was.If only Kace wanted to start his own pack, he would be a great Alpha, just like his two older brothers.Yet the youngest Donovan didn't want to go down on the same path like them.
Lana really wanted to touch Kace's full lips, which parted slightly as he breathed deeply, low and slow.
However, Lana stopped herself when she watched Kace mumble in his sleep, his eyebrows knitting together.
Seeing Kace was about to wake up, Lana took two steps back and cleared her throat.
"Morning. Your breakfast is ready." Lana felt stupid to say that.
And before she could hear Kace's reply, she had rushed out of the bedroom.
On the bed, Kace rubbed his sleepy eyes.He heard the door was being closed, but the first thing that crossed his mind was not Lana, who told him about the breakfast or the fact that she was inside the room for who knows how long.The first thing that Kace did was to check on the girl in his arms.
Kace put his fingers under her nose, but her shallow breath didn't put him at ease. He slid his body slightly lower, and rested his ears on her chest to hear her beating heart.And only then, the lycan could sigh in relief.
Kace looked at Hope, who seemed to not have enough energy to open her eyes, too tired to even breathe properly.
For the past five days, Hope's consciousness had been in and out.Most of the time she would sleep like this, woke up only for a few minutes before she took another rest again.
Serefina told Kace that she was recovering, but the lycan didn't see any sign of her getting better. Probably, it was only him, who had been overthinking on everything.But he just couldn't shake off his anxiety that he felt.
"I will come back," Kace whispered softly to her as he leaned over, and kissed her temple.
Gingerly, Kace got off of the bed, and pulled the blanket for Hope. So that it covered her fragile body perfectly.Only when he thought it would be fine to leave her for a while, Kace walked out of the bedroom.
Inside the kitchen, Kace met Lana, but he couldn't find Serefina anywhere.
"Where is Serefina?" Kace asked as he sniffed the air to find only the faint scent of the witch that lingered in the air.It was either she was still inside her room, or she had just left to go to Fulbright City, taking care of his brother's mate.
The thought of that vexed Kace. His mate needed help as well!
"I think she is still inside her bedroom," Lana mumbled while drinking her tea. She averted her eyes, but Kace's mind was in disarray to notice that. "Her bedroom is locked!" she added hurriedly when she watched Kace strode towards the witch's bedroom.
Yet, Kace kept walking, ignoring her words, and Lana could do nothing about it.
"Serefina." Kace slammed his fist on the door, waiting for a while.But, there was no answer from inside. "Serefina, are you there?" The lycan slightly raised his voice, but still, there was no answer. "Serefina!"
All of a sudden the door swung open, and revealed the witch with her red hair, glowering at him.
"What?!" she snapped at him. "I need my beauty sleep you know?!"
Kace knitted his brows and spoke in his serious tone. "You look horrible."
Serefina didn't appreciate those words at all. "You don't look any better," She retorted, closing the door behind her, and leaned against it as she faced the lycan. "If you want to ask about Hope's condition, I have to tell you that I don't have any idea about that." Serefina had told Kace about this several times."But, she will recover, no need to worry."
Kace didn't like the way Serefina brushed off this topic. "Don't you know something that would help her to recover faster?"
Serefina gave him a look. "I am a witch, not a healer." Then she added. "I can feel her spirit is getting stronger, it is only a matter of time until she's fully recovered."
"Actually, I've been wanting to ask; should we move away from here, since the devil is nearby?" After all, Beelzebub was nearby.
Though Kace had changed the topic, Serefina was still talking about the same subject. "At the end, we need Hope to recover faster… the war with demons is drawing near."
"Pardon me?" Kace's voice was very rigid. He almost lost his mate, and now she's talking about war?
