The Love of a Lycan Chapter 777 – CONFRONTATION

“We need our Alpha to talk about this!” Alpha Ralph from Glory Wind pack was frowning. They wanted their Alpha to lead them, not his long lost brother.

All of them knew about Kace, who became rogue, though the reason was still unclear, but they didn’t appreciate to be told by him.

Unfortunately, the five Alphas there had the same thought. They didn’t want to take an order from someone who was not their leader.

Even if Kace was Jedrek, they wouldn’t budge.

“Your Alpha gave this responsibility to me!” Kace was pissed by their attitude and Chiron’s existence didn’t not help him either. Apparently, Torak’s people were having a problem to get along with other creature outside of their kind. Even after their long journey together, it didn’t warm up both creatures.

“And we have every right to reject it!” Alpha Ralph said grumpily. “We just arrived from long journey, if we have to talk about nonsense, I will prefer to take some rest.”

His statement was supported by the other four Alphas inside the tent.

“Do you want to disobey your Alpha’s direct order?!” Kace shouted. He didn’t believe he had to face disrespectful behavior like this.

In the past, he had led thousand people and commanded them without being questioned, but now they simply walked away right in front of his face?!

Kace indeed didn’t want to give an order, but it didn’t mean he would tolerate their behavior. His beast growled loudly inside his head, demanding respect that he deserved from these people.

They should know; despite of being rogue, as a Donovan, Kace’s rank was higher than anyone inside this tent.

“Come back here.” Kace commanded them in low voice, he almost growled. However, there was no one paid attention to his warning.

“You are not here to give order to us.” Alpha Brian said brusquely.

“I SAID COME BACK HERE!” Kace’s voice thundered inside the tent, even people outside the tent could hear him.

Out of instinct, the five Alphas turned around only to find Kace’s red eyes. His beast took control of him.

============== 

In their first dinner, Raine accidentally touched Jedrek and, as she couldn’t control her power yet, some visions came into her mind about a few pieces of events that happened in the past.

Jedrek perhaps didn’t realize that, since that happened so fast.

“Raine saw something,” Torak said. His voice neither loud nor harsh, but Jedrek could see how serious this matter was.

“What did she see?” Jedrek asked grimly. Lilac had told her about the power that the other two guardian angels possessed and he knew Torak was telling the truth about Raine’s visions.

“Are you sure, you want me to tell you now?” Torak glanced briefly at the two guards, who were still lowering their head, feeling intimidated by the two Donovans.

Jedrek gritted his teeth. “Leave us alone.”

Without wasting another second the two guards immediately dashed out of the room and closed the door behind them.

“So?” Jedrek tried to guess what exactly Torak knew, or what Raine had seen, about his past.

“You fought father for Alpha’s title,” Torak enunciated every word clearly and he could see a flash of surprise in Jedrek’s blue eyes, which disappeared in a flash, showing his aloofness once again. “Why did you do that?”

Jedrek didn’t need to challenge their father for the Alpha’s position. He would inherit it eventually. A challenge for Alpha would require one of them to die. Whether the challenger won the battle by killing the former Alpha, or the Alpha would kill the challenger to prevent a complicated trouble in the future.

The challenger had tarnished their loyalty to their Alpha, therefore it was a death sentence for one of them.

“You know the rule! But, why!?” Torak growled as he took a step closer toward his older brother.

They were glaring at each other, as a deep dangerous growl reverberated from within their chest and Jedrek chose to not answer Torak’s question.

“They were not going together to live peacefully in the other realm, right?” Torak narrowed his eyes. That was what Jedrek told him when their parents disappeared all of sudden. “You killed father in that battle for Alpha’s title.” Torak’s voice sounded like not himself.

“Yes, I killed him,” Jedrek admitted.

Torak’s whole body shook with rage and when he asked the next question, white fur had sprouted on his skin. “Where is mother?”

“I killed her too.”

============== 

“Serefina!” Hope saw Serefina entered the room and immediately rose onto her feet and then rushed to hug the witch. “I miss you!”

“Get away from me,” Serefina said grumpily as she shoved away Hope from her, but not hard enough to hurt her.

Meanwhile, Raine and Lilac were sitting next to each other. When they watched how Hope behaved with Serefina, Lilac leaned over to Raine to whisper something.

“I can’t imagine Serefina raised one of us,” Lilac said in low voice. “I felt like she would have strangled us to death with her temper.”

Raine chuckled when she heard that. She would have thought the same the same thing as Lilac when the first time she met Serefina.

“Not everyone can stand her,” Raine admitted. But, with time, she understood the witch, even though she didn’t really agree with everything that she said or the decision that she made.

“Right,” Lilac said, but then she realized; Jedrek was one of a few people, who could stand her.

“Two of you! Come here, we don’t have all day!” Serefina looked at Lilac and Raine disapprovingly. “We need to do it now.”

“Hm? What is it?” Raine looked at Lilac, but she just stood up and ushered her toward Serefina and Hope.

But, when Raine was close enough to Serefina, Hope felt cold wind blew on her face, forcing her to close her eyes, yet, when she opened them, they were no longer inside the room in the castle.

This place was the same place like in her dream.
