The Love of a Lycan Chapter 329 – DARK TUNNEL

The Lycan who was standing in front of the bed immediately lifted it up easily and put it upside down as it leaned against the wall.

Under the bed everyone could see there was a square board wood that didn’t suit with another board wood around it and there was a key hole in the middle of it.

Raine stepped forward with Torak walked so close behind her, in case something unpleasant was happening and he needed to react fast.

Raine squatted down and touch the key hole with her slender fingers before she lifted her head and looked at Jade, the three years old child was crying silently in the arms of the Lycanthropes.

“There is a key around his ankle.” Raine pointed her fingers at Jade’s left ankle.

Once she said that, Clarice went berserk as she shifted into his brown wolf with a golden strip around her hind legs until her snout.

The beast’s eyes turned black as she snarled at the person who was holding her son. She tried to snatch away her son, but of course it wouldn’t be an easy job to do because the other Lycans had been ready and also shifted into their beast form.

Torak pulled Raine behind his back as his canines elongated. He was ready to tear the female wolf into shred if she dared enough to touch his mate.

However, the only thing that interested the female wolf was only her child. She tried and failed, tried and failed to get back her son until one of the beasts pounced on her and bit down her neck.

In matter of second, the female wolf let out an agony howl before she fell on the ground with blood flooded around her.

Raine hid her face and shut her eyes tightly. She didn’t understand why the woman chose to defy Torak’s order and turned aggressive when all Raine wanted was only the key that attached at her son’s ankle.

Raine even didn’t think to hurt the mother or the child.

“Stop it Torak… make them stop…” Raine whimpered. The gurgling sound that was heard from Clarice’s throat scared her greatly as her body started to tremble.

Torak raised his hand to stop the beast assault on the female wolf that was still put a fight though she was badly injured.

The moment the fight was happening the boy was brought out of the room and the other Lycan returned with the key that Raine had mentioned before while Jade was staying in the other room.

Raine still could hear his cry.

The injured female Lycan tried to stand and snatched the key away from Raine’s hand, but failed as she kept falling to the ground. Loss a lot of blood and energy.

Not only that, the female Lycan was trying to put more effort to stop Raine, yet all she could do was only wailing in pain.

“Don’t!” She hissed as she turned into her human form. The bite on her neck had slowly healed but, the blood loss that she suffered couldn’t be replenished so fast.

The Lycan gave the key to Raine, slightly nodded his head out of courtesy.

Yet, it was Torak who received the key and scrutinized the small metal in his hand. “Back away my love.” He said.

He didn’t know why Clarice was so adamant for the door to not open, but giving her agitation now, they wouldn’t be able to talk to her right now.

In the other hand, Calleb walked beside Raine and pulled her back, away from the secret door. And just like Torak overprotectiveness, Calleb also hid his Luna behind his back and only allowed her to peek from behind his broad shoulder.

Actually Raine thought there was nothing dangerous behind the secret door, but she was not very sure because she only saw a dark tunnel behind it.

Her vision was ended there, because Raine saw it from the child’s perception.

“Torak…” Raine called out his name from behind Calleb’s back, she couldn’t help but worried for her mate. “Be careful.” She said, her face showed her discomfort.

Torak just gave her a faint smile without saying anything.

However, that sort of act left the other Lycanthropes were befuddled. They had never seen their Alpha’s gaze so tender and smile so harmless like that.

Did they see a thing?

Torak ignored their strange gaze on him as he turned around and placed the key on the key hole and twisted it until a faint sound could be heard from it.

He lifted it open and saw there was stairs that went all the way down to the ground and beneath it apparently it was dark tunnel.

In the other hand, Clarice kept shouting at them to get away from there.

Torak straightened his back as he walked toward Clarice, in the end, the woman’s voice irritated him. “Tell me why I can’t go there?” He asked in low dangerous tone.

“No. I can’t tell you…” She shook her head and now the wound on her neck had closed completely. “I can’t tell you… but, you can’t go there Alpha… don’t go there…” She wept.

Torak disliked this kind of reason and just like how the curiosity worked, the more Clarice didn’t allow him to go down to the tunnel and didn’t give him significant answer, the more he would go there to see it for himself what was the thing that the woman scared of.

Torak ignored Clarice’s warning and gestured to four of the Lycan to follow him inside the tunnel.

“Torak…” Raine stepped forward from behind Calleb’s back, she clutched onto Torak’s shirt, unwilling to let him go.

For some reason Clarice’s warning slightly bothered her.

“I will come back soon.” Torak caressed her cheek and smoothed her wrinkled eyebrows. “Stay here with Calleb, okay?”

“I don’t want you to go…” Raine glanced at the empty tunnel, it looked the same from what she had seen and she had a bad feeling about it.

“I will be alright.” Torak kissed Raine’s forehead and together with the other four Lycan’s, he went down to the dark tunnel.
