However, she wouldn't be so careless to let her guard down, after all, she had no real power to go against her head on.
While Leon and Abby still didn't know what their purpose was to co there, though Hope could see the confusions on Leon's eyes clearly, he was so wise not to ask.
anwhile, Abby was busy following Kace like a headless chicken. In fact, she didn't care where they were really going, because as long as she could be near Hope's mate, she would absolutely be satisfied.
Silently, Hope was grateful that Kace's beast had taken control at a ti like this. The beast could bite off Abby's head without a second thought if that witch girl were even trying to do sothing harmful to her.Let alone on trying to seduce Kace her way.
Well, if the beast did that horrible thing to Abby, there was nothing that Hope could do to stop him, right?
They had been walking in this small town for two hours already since they disembarked off the ship and, out of the blue, Leon and Abby had joined their small group.
At first they thought, they shared the sa direction as the witch siblings, but after so ti, it was quite obvious that they were following them after having no idea of where to go.
However, since Lidya was in charge in this journey, Hope believed she would do sothing about them.
She was not imaginative enough to have Leon and Abby to follow them, right?
Being carried by Kace was convenient enough for Hope. She didn't need to overwork her short legs to catch up with those supernatural creatures' speed and in the other hand, she could enjoy the view that was offered by this small town comfortably.
Since the sun had risen above their head, this town was drownedinthe warm ray of the sun, and glimred under its light.
Since the sun had risen, the bustling town ca to live and the sight of Kace was carrying Hope, was really sothing to behold.
"Kace I think I'm fine now, you can put down," Hope whispered at him and glanced at her surroundings, those people didn't hide their intention to look back at her and this was really awkward.
"We will take a rest here." Kace indeed put Hope down, but he led the group into an old bar. His little mate needed sothing to eat, this was almost eight hours since the last ti she ate sothing.
The beast didn't even bother to see if the other people would follow him or not, because he knew, they would definitely do what he told.
"I don't know that Kace has this side of him. He actually takes the lead," Ian whispered at Lana when they followed him to enter the bar.
"No wonder, it's only natural. He was born an Alpha after all," Lana replied casually, but the fact that Kace took the lead made him seed more mature than of all those ti she rembered him.
Lana tried hard to pry her eyes from his back, as she didn't want Hope to notice her over attention on her mate, but it was easier said than done.
The sight of overbearing Kacemade the young female werewolfoverwheld.
Kace intentionally took a seat with only two chairs there and when Ethan ca closer while dragging an extra chair, instead he got this vicious threatening growl from Kace that forced him to back off.
Ian imdiately ca to rescue his dense twins. "Don't disturb them, co here." He glanced at Hope, who threw them an apologetic look, she also didn't have any idea how to handle the beast in front of her.
Lana took the twins to sit with her and ordered the best food that the place could offer, yet it still wasn't up to their standard.
anwhile, Lidya plopped down on the chair, on the table next to Leon and Abby.
This place was actually bigger than its appearance from the outside and inside there were only a few people, who were eating and drinking. From the clothes that they wore and the simple backpack that they carried, apparently they were also in a long journey, just like Kace's group.
Not only for those voyagers. From the look of it too, this town turned out to be a transit place for those vagabonds.
"So, I will talk straight to the point." Lidya opened the conversation without beating around the bush. "I don't wish to see both of you in our next move. You can choose to stay here or—" She shrugged her shoulder. "—do whatever you want."
Abby frowned, "Listen—"
But, her word was cut short by Lidya. "I don't want to hear it."
Upon listening to the blunt rejection, Abby's expression turned to an unpleasant look. She turned her head towards her brother.
"And I don't want to hear anything from you either." Lidya didn't give Leon a chance to say anything.
"Look—" Leon tried.
"I don't want to."
Ignoring Lidya's repetitive rejection, Leon continued his explanation regardless. "I know we were in the wrong to follow your group without permission in the first place, but I have told you that we have never been in here, in this part of this realm."
"This is your realm, what is it that you are afraid of?" Lidya rolled her eyes.
"This is yours too." Leon emphasized his words. "And we are from the Southeast Coven, not here." Though they were from the sa kind, but every realm has its own dangers and unspoken rules.
This land was part of an ancient place of the Northern Coven. At first Leon was not aware about this, but since they were here for a week until the next ship ca to take them back to the mainland, it was not a wise move to act arrogant.
"We could help." Abby offered with her brilliant eyes, she didn't care that her hidden agenda to follow this group had been exposed. "We are more capable than the human that you bring." She was referring to Hope, because she was the only human here.
The cloak, indeed, hid her scent well, but Abby had t her before. She was ignoring the fact that she was Kace's mate, because simply she still didn't believe it. In her mind, Kace was one of the curse Lycans.
Lidya chuckled when she heard that and said, "A strand of her hair is worth your life."
