Chapter 631 - IT'S TIME FOR YOU TO GO

"So that he could learn that what he had done was wrong," Selene replied with the same answer.

Lilac groaned in frustration. "If he doesn't want me, I don't want him either." She was quite stubborn for a guardian angel.

"That's not how it works," Selene chuckled as she touched her hair. "You know that."

"Well, I don't want to be with him," Lilac mumbled, lowering her head as she recalled the gruesome story about the lycan who killed his own mate. "He wants to kill me."

"Lilac," Selene sighed as she put her fingers under Lilac's chin and made her raise her head. "Why don't you teach him some lessons? You are strong enough to protect yourself, and kind enough to show him how he is supposed to treat his mate. I know you can.After all, you are destined to be together for a reason."

However, Lilac was not convinced by Selene's words.

"I am the one who raised you." And saved you from death. However, the last sentence didn't leave the Goddess's lips. "I am the one who put the bond between you and him."

"Can't you just break the bond? I don't think he would mind it," Lilac suggested. "Well, I don't mind it."

Selene's melodic laugh echoed in the garden of lilac flowers. But her gaze turned helpless when she watched how the flowers were withering.

This garden was a perfect reflection of Lilac's current feeling.

"Don't be so down. I love to see how fierce you can be." Selene retracted her hand, and strolled around the garden with Lilac following beside her. "Plus, since you just turned seventeen, you are not allowed to live in this realm anymore."

"If I'm not allowed to live here, where am I supposed to go then?" Lilac frowned.Even though she asked that question, she already knew the answer before Selene replied to her.

"To the place where your mate is," Serefina had said it thousands of times, but she didn't mind saying it again and again. "You know the purpose of your life, Lilac."

Lilac fell silent, as if she didn't hear the last statement. She understood, but it didn't mean she accepted that.

historical

Understanding and acceptance were two different things.

Lilac had been raised for seventeen years with the song about the purpose of the resurrection of the guardian angels being sung in her ears, every single night.

How could she not understand? She understood it very well, and knew there was a bigger picture ahead of her, than the fact that there was a beast who wanted to kill her. She had a mission to accomplish. She lived her life for that, and now was the time.

"When will I meet with the other two guardian angels?" Lilac asked, relented. She hated to argue with Selene. First, because she wouldn't win, and second, because she loved her with all of her heart.

Lilac had never had a real family, and the Moon Goddess was the closest to something considered as family.Yet, Selene always told Lilac that she shouldn't think that way about her.

"You will meet them eventually, someone named Serefina will bring you all together," Selene said.But, she had never mentioned who Serefina was for Jedrek.

"Serefina?" Lilac repeated her name.

"Now, this will be our last meeting." Selene stopped walking as she faced the girl beside her. "I think it's time for you to go."

Lilac didn't answer her immediately.But instead she made a request. "I want to see my family, can I?"

Selene smiled and leaned over to kiss her temple as she replied, "Of course, you can."

==============

Lilac was standing on a pavement in front of a blue house. She was staring into its front yard where a family of three was having their private picnic.

A three year old girl was running around the velvety grass, with her father chasing behind her, and her mother laughing heartily when their daughter sought for protection.

The three of them laughed like they didn't care for the world. They had a cute little girl after such a long waiting time. There was nothing that they wanted more except to see their little girl grew up healthily.

There was a bitter smile that grazed on Lilac's lips when she watched that happy scene. It was something that she would have experienced, if only she didn't have an insane mate who wanted to kill her.

She would have been there. Playing and laughing with her parents and her little sister.

Lilac bit down her lower lips to stop herself from being a cry baby and pulled herself together. She had a responsibility to carry out and mission to accomplish.

Under the warm sunlight and the passing cars, random music was playing from an opened window from neighbor houses, Lilac was standing there for another fifteen minutes before she decided to leave.

She walked along the bustling street, lowering her baseball cap so she wouldn't need to meet the eyes of any supernatural creatures around her.

Yet, there was always one that was curious enough to approach her.

"I know you can see me," he said in a low voice near Lilac's ear, as he walked beside her. "What are you?"

This man was dressed in white clothes, looked normal for being a human.But unfortunately, he was not.Even humans weren't able to see him.

He was a demon.

Just a wandering demon.

Recently, Lilac could feel the darkness grew thicker than usual.

There must be something happening in this realm.No.In all realms to be exact. And she realized that this was one of her tasks to make things right.

"Are you trying to ignore me?" That demon chuckled upon seeing Lilac's effort to run away from him as she quickened her paces.

However, Lilac didn't go to a crowded place.Instead, she turned around and went to a rather quiet park. In this hour, it was hard to meet people there.

When Lilac was sure no one was around, she turned around and faced the demon with a smirk surfaced on the corner of her lips. "So what? What are you going to do about it, if I can see you?"
