Chapter 561 - THE REVELATION

The Donovans had killed many creatures\' mates, including the centaurs\', to expand their territory and one of it was Chiron\'s mate.

The centaur moved from that realm and came here, guarding the priestess and this land, making this place their new home.

That was why, Kace asked; why they were here when this was not their place.

And now, Kace was afraid that Chiron and the centaurs would do the same thing to him. As if this was a karma that really came for him this time.

If this was a story about other people, where Hope was not included, she would say; Kace deserved it, if those centaurs took his mate.

After what he had done, losing a mate was something he had to experience, feeling the pain when they took the essence of those poor creatures\' existence.

However, things were not as simple as that. It would be Hope\'s life that was put at stake, and she could feel the fear that Kace felt.

Yet, if the centaurs wanted her to die, they didn\'t have to do what they had done. Chiron just needed to do nothing when Leroy, the hunter, wanted to kill her and the others so bad.

Instead, the centaur helped them and kept them safe inside this house and provided them with everything they needed.

Thus, if it was not about revenge, then what did all this mean?

Hope and Kace stayed in that position until they heard Ian was calling their name cautiously, feeling awkward because he had to interrupt their moment.

"Hope, Kace…"

Kace didn\'t move, he kept hugging Hope as if there was nothing really interesting to make him move an inch, yet Hope wriggled her body until she could face Ian, who was standing on the doorway.

"What happened?" Hope asked, her voice a little bit twisted, her mind was spinning with the new revelation and other bunch of questions.

"Carina needs Kace," Ian shifted his eyes on the Lycan, who didn\'t give any reaction upon hearing his name. "She said something about; magic and needs Kace to wake Lana up."

Hope frowned. Why did they need Kace to wake Lana up? Carina could wake Kace up with no trouble at all.

Despite that thought, Hope still talked to Kace. "Kace, we need to go, Lana needs you. She has been sleeping longer than you did," she spoke softly, stroking his back. "Kace, let\'s go."

At first, Kace didn\'t give any reaction, as if he had turned deaf, but in another second, he sighed deeply and nodded slowly.

"Stay with me," he spoke seriously.

Hope wanted to argue with him, saying that the centaur wouldn\'t do them any harm, but she was not sure with that either.There was still the possibility that they had some sort of hidden agenda behind their kindness and what more, this wasn\'t the right time to start another quarrel with Kace.

Hence, Hope just nodded obediently and let Kace help her stand up and both of them walked to the fresh air of the evening breeze.

Lana was lying on the ground not too far from them with Carina and Ethan squatted down beside her and Chiron, who was standing tall behind them.

Kace looked at the centaur worriedly as he kept Hope close to him.

"What happened to her?" Kace asked Carina in a rigid voice.

"Her soul connects with yours," Carina answered the same way Kace spoke to her and in an instant the atmosphere became very thick with the tension that was surfaced in the air.

Carina still didn\'t want to look at Kace and focused her attention on Lana.

"What does it mean?" Ethan asked. He looked at Carina and Kace, then back to Lana.

"The vow," Carina said simply. "She has taken an oath to obey him. If something happens to him, her life will be in danger too."

"How could that possibly happen?" Hope asked, she was shocked.

She thought the vow that Lana and Kace were talking about back then was not something as serious as this. In her eyes, it was nothing like a vow to pledge Lana\'s loyalty to Kace.

On the other hand, Kace also thought the same thing. He didn\'t know the effect of that oath would be like this, Serefina didn\'t say anything about this.

But, if Kace thought about this again, knowing Serefina, the witch who would most likely do something beyond their imagination, especially the unexpected like this.

If, at that time, Lana did any harm to Hope, she would indirectly hurt Kace too, and that would affect her immediately. It was very vicious of Serefina to think about this method, but at the same time, this ensured Hope\'s safety in the hand of strangers.

This must take a great amount of pain from Kace to put Lana in this current state now, since Kace had been injured before, but nothing happened to Lana.

And yes, to see Hope was being stabbed right before the beast\'s eyes, must be a great pain for Kace\'s body and spirit.

"What should we do now?" Hope asked again, looking very worried about Lana.

Carina drew a small knife from her h.i.p.s, seeing that, Kace became tense. There was a rumble within his chest, which was ready to explode if Carina made any threatening move. However, she only said, "give me your hand."

"What do you want?" Hope became defensive when she watched the knife in Carina\'s hand.

"His blood will help." And when Hope\'s expression showed her that she didn\'t believe it, Carina added. "Do you prefer for him to kiss her instead?"

This time, Hope blushed as she shook her head vigorously. "No."
