Chapter 598 - OBSERVANT

Moreover, Kace had killed their fellow hunters, there was no one who would guarantee that they wouldn\'t take it out on Hope!

No matter what the reason was, the beast always thought that revenge was something that would easily manipulate people\'s state of mind. He would never have let Hope be in such a risky situation.

"Take out those hunters from your plan, I will go with her by myself!" Kace growled and Bree buried her face on the crook of Hope\'s neck, hugging her kitten tightly.

Chiron narrowed his eyes as he stared at Kace, "This is just my hypothesis. I don\'t know whether shapeshifters have the same effect as we do or not."

Chiron came clean with this. The thought that shapeshifters had human form aside from their beast form, leading him to think that way, but there was no proof that this was safe to try.

"I will take the risk," Kace said sternly, leaving no room for another argumentation as he took Bree from Hope. She had been carrying her for quite a while, her hand must be cramping by now.

At first Bree didn\'t want to let go of Hope\'s neck, "I don\'t want to be carried by you if you shout again…" said the little girl sullenly.

"I will carry you, or do you prefer to walk alone to the hut?" Kace glared. He was not in a good mood to have another argument, especially with a human whose age was nearly one-thousandth of his age.

"Kace, it\'s okay, I will carry her. You are scaring her," Hope complained, but received another glare from Kace.

"You won\'t be able to carry her any longer than this," he stated the fact, he could see that Hope was no longer comfortable to carry Bree. "And you, don\'t you know that you are heavy?"

"Kace!" Hope hissed. Why did she feel like the beast was way more childish than Bree?

"Come here!" Kace stretched his hands to carry Bree.

Pouting her lips, Bree let Kace to carry her. She mumbled, "No, his heart is not as soft as tofu, he is like a paprika." She was sulking. "Bree doesn\'t like paprika."

At first, Hope was afraid that Kace would do something to Bree when she heard that, but the beast just ignored the girl\'s sulking words and shifted his attention towards Chiron instead. "So, let\'s hear what your plan is?"

The night sky was cloudy, covering the light of the moon. The chilly breeze blew lazily, rustling the lush trees around them.

Though Bree didn\'t wear enough, Kace\'s body heat was able to make her comfortable in his arms, snoring when the discussion between a.d.u.l.ts became too boring for her to hear.

She fell asleep just like that, and didn\'t care for the world after she made sure the yellow kitten was secured in Hope\'s arms.

The discussion between the three of them needed a quite long time before it could reach a conclusion.

Actually, most of the time, it would be Kace and Chiron, who would meet a disagreement while Hope would only participate with \'yes\' or \'no\'. As long as Kace wanted to go, showed some effort for this mission and didn\'t suggest something dangerous, Hope would agree with whatever his decision be.

When they had passed the argumentation and disagreement, the three of them walked leisurely back to the centaurs\' den.

"I hope you will take Bree with you when you go back to your realm," Chiron said all of sudden. "She doesn\'t belong here."

Kace glanced at Chiron, "Apparently, many things don\'t belong here."

The chief of the centaur knew what Kace was indicating. This realm was not their nature, this was not the centaurs\'habitat, and despite they had resided in this land for so long, their heart still belonged to somewhere else, but not there.

This ground was not the same ground that their hooves touched for the first time when they came into their life.The wind, the sky, the stars… all of these would never be the same.

"She is not The Loris\' biological child," Chiron said, staring at the snoring little girl softly. "I found her near the border between two worlds."

In his fuzzy human memories, Kace remembered it was the place where Lana and he were being attacked by the feral beast. The place where those guinea pigs of the witches and vampires lived.

"She was only five years old at that time and was not able to talk out of fear," Chiron reminisced. "Now she talks like there is no tomorrow."

Hope chuckled lightly when she heard that. What Chiron said was true. Bree was quite a chatter. She imagined if they really took her when they returned, it would be amazing for having her as her little sister.

However, Kace didn\'t immediately agree with that. "When the time comes, we will see the situation later, whether we should bring her with us or not."

"But, why?" Hope protested, she thought Kace liked her.

"If you think this place is not safe for her, then her being with us, will not be any safer." Kace caressed Hope\'s cheeks tenderly. "There are a lot of things that Serefina and I didn\'t tell you about yet, my love."

Hope knitted her brows, she was aware that there were many things that she didn\'t know. "Why don\'t you tell me then?"

"Of course, I will. But, first thing first." Kace nodded. He looked exhausted, it seemed that this long walk had worn him out.

"I understand," Chiron said solemnly.

"And for you." Kace suddenly stopped walking and faced the centaurs. "Do you think that I\'m fool enough for not knowing that there is something you want in return for this favor."

Chiron was surprised, but then he nodded. "You are observant."
