Chapter 868 - THEIR POWER (4)

Hope couldn\'t take her eyes from whatever that thing was nor was she able to move her body when those eyes spurred toward her.

What was that?

==============

Raine walked along the river bank, while thinking what she should do now, but she didn\'t run like she did earlier, instead, she looked around her, trying to grasp this situation.

What should she do now? The dwarf told her that she should use her power. However, if her power was related to time, what exactly she had to do when she was stuck in her current time and wasn\'t going anywhere? Or, was she?

Raine looked around her one more time and she was sure that she was still in the apricity river and it was still frozen like it had always been, except the time when the lycanthropes attacked the village of angel. The water in the river turned red during that particular time.

Raine sighed heavily, she looked up to the murky sky, which was still dyed in the color of night. She stood in daze until she sensed something approaching in her direction.

"What is that?" Raine frowned and looked around her, but couldn\'t see anything, yet the sound was getting louder and louder.

Then, everything happened in the blink of an eye and Raine fell on her back when she realized what creature had flew from the night sky.

It was a bird.

A bird fanned out its bright red wings and threw back its beautiful head feathers, which burned up into the night like real flames.

It\'s body as big as a regular human, plummeted from the high sky.

The creature was huge and when it\'s figure closed in with its feathered wings opened wide, it blocked the night sky from Raine\'s vision.

The guardian angel couldn\'t look away nor could she close her eyes. She was baffled and was in disbelief at what she was seeing now.

However, before that bird could touch the ground, its wings flapped violently while letting out a deafening screeching sound.

Raine closed her ears with both her palms, yet she couldn\'t close her eyes. The bird was breathtaking yet same time dangerously mesmerizing.

The massive creature flew into the sky and screeched. It flew around Raine\'s head.

"What… is that…? A phoenix?" Raine managed to utter that word in her perplexity. She was unsure whether it was a phoenix or not, since she had never seen one in her entire life.

Phoenix was a myth and a creature from bed time story in her life, yet when lycans, devils and centaurs could exist, Raine didn\'t think that having a phoenix in that list, was impossible.

However, before Raine could get over her bafflement, she caught sight of something more terrifying than the breathtaking phoenix.

Coming from the frozen river were nine massive snakes, breaking through the surface of the ice while letting out angry cries.

==============

Jedrek held Lilac closer to him, feeling her warm and steady breath against his neck and the spark that spread through their n.a.k.e.d bodies.

They were inside the tent on the hill where they would wait until the sun rose tomorrow, or it could be a few hours from now, the sky was still the color of the murky dark and the sun still refused to shine.

Jedrek ran his fingers along Lilac\'s black hair and her bare shoulder to her back. She was fast asleep, looked very tired after mustering all the power she could earlier and their intense love making moments ago.

He loved to have her in his arms and feel her body curled up against him, as she purred softly in her sleep.

Surprisingly, after the tension of meeting Swan this afternoon, this night was exceptionally quiet and peaceful.

Jedrek could hear the cracking woods, which were used to make bonfire, outside his tent.

The king leaned over to kiss his queen\'s temple and pulled her even closer.

However, at that time, a certain scent hit his senses. This was the same scent that he smelled when he saw Lilac destroying the tower in the city.

Yet, this time it was stronger, as if that person was nearby. Was she?

Jedrek tried to ignore this unpleasant feeling, but when he was sure that this must be her scent, he untangled himself from Lilac and got off from the bed.

Jedrek covered Lilac\'s body under the blanket securely and kissed her temple again, made sure she wouldn\'t wake up when he left her for a moment.

He picked up his clothes from the ground and put them on. After he was properly dressed and grabbing his cloak, Jedrek walked out of his tent and found a few lycan warriors were still awake as they rotated their shifts.

Those warriors greeted their king, but Jedrek simply raised his hand, gesturing them to be quiet and they conceded by nodding solemnly to him in respect.

Jedrek walked in to the dense trees, toward the source of the scent.

This citrus scent was the scent that they had smelled since they arrived in this northern region, but the citrus scent from her was a little bit different, thus no one could detect her presence, except Jedrek.

He knew her very well to tell that he was sure it was her.

Jedrek walked among the trees with the sounds of the crickets as the background, away from the camp that his people had set, until he saw her.

The witch\'s red hair fluttered in the wind, as her back faced him.

However, Jedrek knew that she was aware of his presence.

"What do you want, Serefina?" Jedrek asked.

==============

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Hope this year will bring more joy and happiness!

Love you all!
