The Love of a Lycan Chapter 370 – HEARTBREAKING DECISION

Raine was coughing blood so hard when excruciating pain spread her entire body before the feeling of numbness paralyzed her as she fell to the ground, breathing erratically.

Before her eyes, she watched how Sunny fell on her knees as she roared in pain because of Raine’s blood that sprayed on her face and body.

The blood indeed harmed and stopped her, in matter of second Sunny had slumped on the floor, yet Raine’s condition couldn’t be saved.

She choked on her own blood, not to mention the blood that pooled beneath her body, the dim light of the room revealed her pale face as she fluttered her eyes.

In her blurry sight, Raine tried to stay conscious, mustering her will to survive from this, though she didn’t know how when her condition was this bad.

The last thing Raine saw before blacking out was the expressionless face of Sunny.

NO!

Raine shouted in her head when black dots tainted her vision.

NO!

“NO!!!” Raine roared.

She shouted very loud until she hurt her throat before she felt someone shook her shoulder.

“Raine. What happened?!” someone shook her shoulder again before her voice registered in her consciousness. “Raine, open your eyes!”

“Raine!”

And then, Raine opened her eyes immediately. Her eyes were very sharp as they glowered at Sunny beside her.

Raine gasped loudly and her body was trembling uncontrollably, and when realization hit her, she knew she had travelled back time again.

The same thing that happened when she was attacked by those reporters outside of Torak’s office when they were trying to burn her alive inside the car.

“Raine, what happened?” Sunny backed away slightly because the sight of Raine’s expression right now was so terrifying. “Everything is all right?” she asked carefully, afraid to startle Raine.

Raine tore her eyes from Sunny and looked at her surroundings, she was in the corridor again, trying to escape from the battle that happened on the rooftop.

Raine needed sometime to calm herself and her trembling body, after all she was too close to death or maybe she would have died if it wasn’t because of her ability.

But, then… that only meant one thing…

Raine raised her head and looked at Sunny with complicated emotion. “I am fine…” her voice sounded hoarser than normal. “We have to go…”

“Oh, right…” Sunny, hesitantly, wrapped her arm again around Raine’s shoulder. “Let’s go.”

“Sunny, what did you say before?” Raine asked calmly, too calm for Sunny to notice there was something different with Raine.

“Oh, I said…” Sunny tried to remember her last sentences before Raine acting strangely. “… I want to decline Mr. Reiz’s order, but my father said I have to do this for our family…”

That’s it. That was the last sentences from Sunny.

“… sorry.” Raine whispered.

“Hm?” Sunny lowered her head to catch what Raine said. “What?”

From the corner of her eyes, Raine could see the room where Sunny would shove her inside and kill both of them, just a few steps away. 

“I am sorry.” Raine repeated as she stilled her heart and a look of determination flashed on her eyes.

“Why are you the one apologizing? Don’t…” Sunny had not yet finished her words when Raine touched her face with her hand that smeared with her blood, the same blood that she used to make Belphegor released her.

At first, Sunny blinked her eyes innocently, the last expression of her that would attach in Raine’s mind whenever she remembered this very moment.

Sunny was confused at first, but in the next second, her eyes opened widely as the color changed into bloody red.

Sunny roared with the voice that wasn’t even hers. She raised her hand, which her nails were as sharp as razor, but Raine was faster than her, as she drew a dagger from her h.i.p.s and stabbed Sunny’s chest with it.

A shrill scream filled the air, echoed through the wall in the corridor as Sunny’s body fell on the floor. The front of Raine’s clothes stained with blood.

Raine didn’t know how long she was standing there, her vision and mind were clouded, as if she was staring through thick curtain of mist, until Raphael’s voice called out her name behind her back.

“Raine, are you all right?” Raphael walked hastily at the girl, who was at loss in front of her friend’s dead body.

In one glance, Raphael could tell what exactly happened there and now, Raine was in shocked.

“Raine…” Raphael patted her shoulder and ready to see her tears that streaming down her face, yet he didn’t see it.

Raine didn’t cry, she was very calm and collected, though her hands were slightly trembling, but her mental’s state was way better than what Raphael expected.

Raphael then took off his jacket and covered Sunny’s body with it while Jack did the same thing and covered the poor girl’s face.

Raine turned around, staring at her own hands that covered with blood.

This was it.

This was how her vision looked like, her hands were covered with blood, not hers, but Sunny’s. Should she feel relief because it wasn’t she who died in the end?

Raine felt bad to think that way.

But, with Sunny, who had been possessed with dark magic, Raine couldn’t do anything to help her.

Raine had seen and experienced it, if she didn’t do what she had done now.

She didn’t have a choice… but, why she felt like someone who was trying to justify her own action? The guilty feeling gnawed her heart alive.

And then Raine remembered what Serefina had said to her, long… very long time ago, when she was still too afraid to even look other people straight in their eyes.

What Serefina had said was true…

There would be time when Raine had to face something crueler that she could imagine and she had to make a quick decision out of it…

The worst part was, Raine realized this wouldn’t be the last heart- breaking decision that she had to endure.

“Let’s go.” Raine said to the other Lycan’s impassively as she walked out of the building.
