Chapter 488 - I AM WORRIED ABOUT YOU

"Half she- werewolf," Lana corrected him while trying to heal Kace's wounds, although the effect was not really pronounced, at the very least, his wounds wouldn't get worse. "I have fae's blood in my vein."

"Right.." Kace mumbled as he felt the warm on his skin from the tip of Lana's fingers, which touched his skin. "Any news about your mother?"

Aside from all the tasks that Serefina had given to her regarding the guardian angel and to track down Gluttony along with Kace, Lana also has been searching for her mother when they arrived in this village for the second time.

"No." there was a small frown between his eyebrows when she replied. "I think that is not something important for me now and I don't understand why Serefina is very adamant for me to find the fae. It is not like I can enter the northern coven as I wish.."

It was hard to go to that realm when you are not a creature with magical ability such as witch or fae while Serefina, as the last pure blood witch, didn't really like to mingle with the other witches.

The realm in northern coven was a mysterious place, even Kace had never stepped a foot there.

"Don't you want to see your mother?" Kace tilted his head to look at Lana, but she placed her hands on both sides of his face from behind firmly.

"Don't move," Lana warned him and then continued what she was doing.

"Alright." Kace remembered the first time he met Lana, she was only a little girl with a sharp tongue, who seemed very bold and was in a deep trouble for being a rogue in her early age.

She was looking for her mother at that time.

"I was looking for my mother because at that time, I don't have someone to rely on and I think I was too young to be able to defend myself from the creatures that hunted me. I have to survive." Lana shrugged her shoulder. "But, I couldn't use those reasons again now. Though Serefina is really annoying and exhaust my energy to talk to her, but she is also reliable and now I can protect myself just fine."

Lana had gotten what she needed. A place to stay and food every day, thus she didn't wish to find her mother anymore, but Serefina seemed has different thought in her mind.

"Serefina must have her own reason for doing this." Kace muttered.

"Hm." Lana hummed as a reply, she kept tracing Kace's back even when she supposed to end this healing session.

"What will you do if the war is about to happen?" Lana suddenly asked, she just wanted to kept conversing with Kace. "You know that you have to reunite with your other brothers in order to win this war again."

Kace furrowed his eyebrows, he disliked this topic and didn't want to think about that.

"Moreover, with Hope. Have you told her about the war? Does she know her role in this war?" Lana knew Serefina had been reminding Kace about this, but the lycan would always brush away this topic.

"We don't need to talk about it, that is something that will not necessarily happen." Kace's frown deepened. He felt unease whenever he was being reminded about this.

"You have seen the sign. It will happen sooner or later." Lana emphasized her words with her eyes fixed on Kace's back.

"Can we talk about something else?" in his discomfort, Kace didn't even realize when all Lana did was only tracing her fingers on his back.

"If what Serefina said is true, her life is in great danger if the war happens." Ignoring Kace's words, Lana kept rumbling. "There is a possibility for you to lose your mate in order to win the war."

"I will never let that happen!" Kace let out a low growl, their conversation had reached the point where he despised the most. He regarded this with a contemptuous sneer.

"That is why we have to figure out another way to save Hope, but I think you should have to reconcile with your other brothers and be in the right term with your beast." Lana knew the problem that Kace faced regarding his beast.

It was not common for any shifter to repress their own beast to the degree that they lost their instinct to kill.

Killing and being killed was a common occurrence in their world, it was part of survival instinct and it would be a serious case if they lost it.

"My beast is fine." Kace replied curtly, feeling the fingers, which tracing his back had stopped.

"I can feel your beast is dying there." Lana disagreed with Kace's statement. "You know, the peak of being half fae, you can feel the spirit around you.. and the spirit of your beast is weakening."

Kace didn't answer that statement, his eyes hardened.

Lana bit her lips upon seeing the gashes on Kace's back. She was not able to heal it and even with their kind remarkable healing ability and Kace as the white lycan, the wounds still not closed.

It has been more than two weeks, but his condition didn't become better.

Though Lana didn't show it, but she was very worried about Kace's condition. One of the reasons she was going to the northern coven was because Serefina had told her about Kace's condition and they needed to find a powerful Fae or healer there.

Although the impact of Kace's injury was due to himself who had suppressed his animal instincts, but because of the lycan didn't want to fix the situation, his condition wouldn't be better in near future.

"Have you done?" Kace asked because he couldn't feel Lana's fingers on his back for a while now. His voice was devoid from any emotion, as he didn't wish to talk about his condition or the war or the possibility he would lose his mate.

There was no answer from Lana, but Kace's body turned stiff when he felt Lana was hugging him from behind and whispered. "I am worried about you."
