Chapter 1056: Guilty

Yes, he lost a battle with himself and his feelings, and the worst of it all was, him hurting Lilac again.

This was a hard thing to explain when your mind and heart were on two opposite sides and you didn\'t know which part of you, you wanted to follow.

And every choice has its own consequences...

Jedrek went into their tent, but what made him frown was; he couldn\'t find Lilac inside, not even her scent could be traced, indicating that the Guardian Angel hadn\'t even set foot in the tent.

If she is not here, then where is she?

It was already very late into the night, there was no way she was still continuing the services she busied herself over during the day, right?

Jedrek\'s frown deepened.

The king then stepped outside and stood near the entrance of their tent, he closed his eyes and his expression twisted into one of a complete concentration as he sniffed the air around him hard, trying to catch Lilac\'s scent.

When the king opened his eyes, you could see that his blue orbs had been replaced with dark black ones, as dark as the night sky.

And with hasty steps, Jedrek immediately walked quickly toward the source of the scent, which led him to a simple tent, about sixty tents away from his previous place.

Lilac\'s scent was coming stronger from this tent, and although this distinctive scent was mixed with the scents of over hundreds of supernatural beings around, Jedrek did not seem to have much difficulty in finding his mate\'s exact location.

Jedrek could confirm that Lilac was inside the small wooden tent in front of him, because her intoxicating aroma was rich around it.

At first, Jedrek was hesitant to go in, as he didn\'t know what to say when he had to face her directly, but in the end, with the thought that at least he had to make sure that Lilac was indeed inside, Jedrek continued his steps to enter the tent and pulled the curtain slowly.

Behind the curtain that served as a door, Jedrek found the figure of Lilac, curled up on a wooden bed, with a blanket at her side.

It seemed, Lilac had kicked the blanket in her sleep unconsciously.

So quietly, Jedrek went inside and adjusted the blanket, so that it covered her entire body, to keep her warm.

After confirming that Lilac wouldn\'t kick away the blanket again, Jedrek stayed back for a while, staring at the guardian angel who seemed to be fast asleep, because of the fatigue that had gripped her entire being and made her feel too tired to even notice Jedrek\'s presence near her.

After waiting for a total of ten minutes, Jedrek leaned over, intending to kiss Lilac\'s head and say good night, but… the guilty feeling shackling his heart, made him stop just before his lips reached their target.

Instead of kissing her, Jedrek just caressed Lilac\'s head lightly, before he walked out of the tent.

Lilac didn\'t want to be in the same place as Jedrek and he respected her decision.

So, if indeed the Guardian Angel couldn\'t be near him for now, then Jedrek would stay away.

It was just...

After strolling past several tents, the king\'s steps stopped, he turned around and looked at the tent, inside which Lilac was sleeping soundly, the frown in between his brows deepened.

And without he himself knowing it, Jedrek stepped closer to the tent once again and within a few seconds, he was already standing in front of its door, dazed.

This time, Jedrek did not go inside, but sat on the ground while leaning his back against it.

He sat there all night, until the sun rose and its soft light woke him up.

Only then did Jedrek left...

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

Raine fell asleep in Torak\'s arms, the safest and most comfortable place she could ask for, and after a tiring and emotional day, Raine immediately fell asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow, feeling Torak\'s warm body, hugging her from behind.

It was just that, Raine\'s sleep was interrupted when she heard a sorrowful howl in the distance.

The howl was so sad and heartrending, and it didn\'t take Raine very long to figure out whose howl was full of sorrow and wounds.

It was Calleb\'s.

The beast inside Calleb was trying to call his mate back.

Regrettably, it was not possible.

After two full minutes of listening to the sound, Raine found herself unable to ignore it any longer.

The voice was heartbreaking and Raine felt her sleepiness leaving her body.

How could she sleep soundly in Torak\'s arms when Calleb was in this condition?

Therefore, carefully, Raine put away Torak\'s hand from her body and tried her best not to make any sound or other noise that could wake Torak up.

Luckily for Raine, Torak was out like a dead bulb due to the exhaustion he suffered and the side effects of his brutal killing of humans. He was bound to receive tremendous side effects.

The Alpha was mentally and physically worn out.

If only they didn\'t have the blood of the Donovan Royalty and firebirds, their slaughter of thousands of humans could have put themselves in a more dangerous predicament.

Or even worse; caused the death of the beast within them. This could happen to a shifter of lower rank and who did not have good endurance.

Luckily this didn\'t happen to the Donovan Brothers.

Raine then walked out of the tent very slowly toward the place where they kept Calleb locked up, in the western part of this fortress.

The chilling night air blew against Raine\'s skin and made her shiver a little, but when she looked up, she could see the moon shining brightly.

During her journey toward the west of this fortress, Raine encountered several lycanthropes, who were busy patrolling along with some minotaurs.
