"Where is Hope?" Kace opened the door and frowned when he sensed that Hope's scent was very faint inside of the room.
He could onlysee Raphael and Lana, who were sitting on the sofa and Lilac and Raine, who were sleeping on the bed, but Hope was nowhere to be found.
"Calleb took Hope to the Sterling's to meet his mate," Lana said. She rested her head on Raphael's shoulder and looked at Kace.
"What?" Kace growled deeply, but then Lana shushed him by putting her finger on her lips and glanced at Raine and Lilac on the bed. "You will wake them up," she said, frowning.
Since Lana had found Raphael, she was head over heels for her mate, forgetting everything that she felt about Kace back then, as if she never even had a hard crush on him.
However, everything became much easier this way, since they could interact with each other properly without being afraid of hurting each other feelings.
"And you let him take my mate away?" Kace asked in disbelief, but he tried to keep his voice as low as possible. "You should have stopped him."
"You meant stop 'her', right?" Lana corrected Kace.
And, this prompted Kace to realize what was actually happening. Maybe, Calleb had pleaded her to help him, but the Gamma couldn't do anything, or managed to bring her away if Hope didn't agree with him.
It should have been Hope, who wanted to go with him.
That busybody girl! She loves to involve in these kinds of matters! Kace thought in frustration. He should have known how his mate's brain usually worked.
Hope must have a thousands of silly ideas to get Calleb together with Rosie, but in the end, she would only land Kace in a hot soup to deal with that Sterling and Sophia.
"Ugh!" Kace grunted and turned around to find his naughty mate.
"Don't be harsh on her, she just wanted to help him," Lana said behind his back, it was like a big sister that reminded her younger siblings not to fight with each other.
"Don't worry, I will just talk to her 'softly'," Kace emphasized his last word, in a way that made the listeners to actually doubt it.

"But, I have a condition for you and I will let all the centaurs live, except for Chiron and Carina," Jedrek said to Zarrn.
From the look in the Alpha King's eyes, Zarrn could feel a chill run down his spine, thinking about the term that he was about to hear from him.
"What do you want me to do?" Zarrn's voice was very tight, as if he was trying to hold back his feelings which would burst out in any moment.
"It was not a hard task," Jedrek said. "Just like you, I don't want the innocents' blood spilled for something they didn't do."
"I highly doubt it, if it is coming from you," Zarrn said, yet he still wanted to know what was in Jedrek's mind. Moreover, if he could do something to save his people from bearing Chiron's mistake, he would do it.
However, his heart was still complicated with the fact that Jedrek wouldn't let go Chiron and Carina alive.
"You doubt me?" Jedrek asked incredulously. "You should have known it by now that I meant every word that I said."
Zarrn heaved a heavy breath, he balled his fists and looked Jedrek straight in the eyes when he spoke again. "Do you want me to kill Chiron and Carina myself?" he guessed.
Jedrek scoffed. "You know what? You always guess the wrong things and assume the worst." He moved closer and he had to crane his neck to keep their eyes at the same level, yet it didn't make Zarrn any less intimidated by Jedrek.
On the other hand, Torak kept listening. He didn't have any idea what Jedrek wanted from Zarrn, but was slightly relieved that Jedrek didn't give an order to kill those centaurs right then and there.
Torak assumed, Zarrn would agree to whatever the term Jedrek had in his mind for him. He seemed to love his people more than Chiron did.
"I like it when people start to think the worst, but your answer is wrong," Jedrek said slowly, he wanted his words to be understood completely by him. "It was a nice idea that you purpose to me, unfortunately, I have something better."
"What is it then?" Zarrn asked in suspicion.
"I will burn them alive," Jedrek said, enjoying every fearful and shocked expression that crept on Zarrn's face when he heard that. "In front of the public, so everyone will have to stop and think a thousand times before trying to stab behind my back and hurt what's dear to me."
As the situation had already reached this point, so there was no point to hide it anymore. Yes, Lilac was his mate and he cared for her, their enemies could think about hurting her to threaten him, but they must also know what the dreadful consequences would be awaiting them to even think about hurting what's his.
"If you want to kill him, you can behead him," Zarrn said, his voice slightly trembling. Dying from being burned alive was a complete humiliation, because one would scream in agony and expose their weakness as they bore the unbearable pain.
"If I want to kill him that simple, I will not be here talking to you," Jedrek said matter of factly.
Meanwhile, Torak narrowed his eyes, he seemed starting to get an idea what Jedrek wanted to do.
Zarrn's lips pursed tightly into a thin line, as he looked at the king harder. "What do you want me to do?"
If Jedrek didn't want him to kill Chiron and Carina himself, then what was the worse of a thing that he could possible want him to do?
However, Jedrek's answer made him tremble in bewilderment. It was way too far from his expectations.
"I want you to convince all the centaurs pledge their loyalty to me and if they dared to think about stabbing my back again, I will kill them all. And this time, there will be nothing that could stop me," Jedrek said.
"Convince all the centaurs pledge their loyalty to you? After you burn their damn chief right before their eyes?!" Zarrn screeched.
