Chapter 964 - WHY HE DIDN'T COME?

When the two witches were busy contemplating about the situation that they had to face and were deep in their own thoughts, Nutdrouk groaned and opened his eyes.

He blinked his big eyes and looked around him, before he rasped. "I am back, now?" his eyes then met Serefina's and the scrunch between his eyebrows deepened. "Ugh! I don't want to see you the moment I open my eyes."

Ignoring the dwarf's complaint, Serefina asked him immediately. "How is it?"

"How long have I been out?" he tried to sit down and shake his head to clear his mind. What he had experienced was simply like a dream and if he didn't collect his scattered memories, he was afraid he would forget an important detail and taste Serefina's wrath.

"Days," Lidya said simply. "I didn't count. It can be a week or more." She shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly and received a glare from Nutdrouk. "I have been busy taking care the two of you and Sterling, you know." She felt defensive when she was rewarded with the dwarf's expression.

"Cut it out." Serefina intervened. "How is it?"

This time, Nutdrouk shifted his attention toward Serefina, grumbling like usual, but he told the two of them everything that had happened in the realm, where Hope had brought him in.

As Serefina possessed the same power like Raine, it was possible for her to predict this and Nutdrouk had been told beforehand.

The three Donovans were still inside the room, but the silence that engulfed them since half an hour ago, hadn't yet dissipated.

Torak and Jedrek were still struggling to accept the fact that Kace told them and were having a hard time to process how they could let their own mates walk toward their fate in order to stop the war.

There were a thousand 'what ifs' roaming inside their heads.

What if the moon goddess didn't bring them back and they had to lose them forever? The thought of it alone was very hard to bear, not to mention they had to plan all of this out.

It was akin to preparing their own funeral and this fact made them gloomier even more.

On the other hand, Kace didn't say a word after his enlightening speech, he knew that his other two brothers needed some time to discern this fact, they couldn't possibly agree right away with his idea and that was understandable.

Kace himself was quite surprised that he accepted Hope's idea quite easily, though there was still this little fear in his heart, but he didn't let it bloom into something that would trouble them in the future.

Right at the time Kace thought they would spend the entire day and night here, not talking to each other, Lyrus came into the room after slamming the door really hard.

The sound of it made three pairs of dark eyes to be directed at him, yet the lycan didn't startle because there was something more important that he had to tell them.

"The situation out there is not good," Lyrus said, his eyes flickered with fear and panic.

"The situation has never been good for a long time," Jedrek replied, narrowing his eyes to see the urgency in his Beta's eyes.

"No, but this is worse." Lyrus shook his head and clenched his jaw.

Whatever happening before her eyes felt like a movie, as if she was watching herself through the years, but somehow she didn't feel bored or tired of it, even after roaming here for years, she even felt like it only lasted for a blink of an eye.

Just like what Serefina told her that time was indeed a manipulative essence of our life. Often, it might feel so short, but at the same time it could move so fast too.

However now, Raine didn't feel the time moving too fast or too slow, since she just stood there, at the side and observed how her parents loved her.

Raine watched herself through every birthday party that her mother would throw for her and how her father would pick her up when he just got home from a long tired day of working and how her mother would cook cookies that she loved.

It was incredible and for some reason, her life with Torak was slowly forgotten, as if that life had never existed before. That life with Torak now felt like a dream..

How could she experience the life in the mental hospital when all she watched now was her being surrounded with love.

Safe and sound.

No, it was not exactly safe for Raine, since she would encounter one or two creatures. However, there would be Aeon, who protected her from the dark.

The shadow warrior made sure Raine was safe and no creatures could harm her.

Raine watched all of that..

But, during that time, Aeon would act like he didn't see her, or maybe he indeed didn't see her.. Raine was not sure about that.

She tried to approach him, but he would disappear into the shadows before Raine could touch him..

And then came this day..

The day when Raine got attacked by those two creatures, the day when she lost both of her parents, the day when everything turned down hill in her life..

Raine watched with wide eyes when the two creatures slipped into her house.

Right now, her parents were in the living room, talking to each other about their daughter birthday party that would be held two days from now.

Raine felt her body stiffen when the two creatures walked into the kitchen without her parents knowing it.

She could do something, right?

Raine tried to be strategic about what she could do to fight them. She looked around her, searching for the shadow warrior that would always come to help her.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #’t-come_51300993765276496 for visiting.

And then, a sudden revelation hit her hard.

If Aeon always helped her through the years and kept her safe, where was he the night when all of this was happening? Why didn't he come?
