Hope threw herself between the enrage beast and the knife-edge, lethal spear. No one expected she would do this to protect the beast.
The hunters were still thinking that this girl was sohow under so kind of spell that made her to be willing to travel with those insidious creatures.
However, to see how furious this beast to get the girl back and protected her at all cost, even though the beast himself was bleeding badly—the blood that was covering the grass, ground and trees, was enough to drawn one man to death. But it didn't stop the beast to fight them with all its might.
anwhile, Hope, who was ddling in between the stabbing line of the hunters, got what was predicted. She had never experienced an excruciating pain like this before when the sharp tip of the silver blade stabbed her shoulder blade.
She could feel the air was sucked out of her lungs and left her body breathless when it fell on the bloody ground beneath her feet.
The impact of her fall was nothing to be compare with the pain that she endured now. She bit her lips when the numb feelings crept from the tip of her fingers and bit her lips to keep herself awake.
But, the temptation of the darkness was like the only consolation for the unbearable pain that she felt.
The last thing that Hope could hear was the cry from the beast near her. It sounded like a wounded animal that thundered her eardrum.
==============
Hope woke up dizzy and as soon as her mind worked, it forced her to rember everything.
Currently, she was lying on the bed, but she could feel the entire place was shaking as if she was inside a vehicle or sothing, yet, it definitely was not a car. She had not seen one since the first ti she entered this Northern Coven realm.
This place was like the Middle-Agesera filled with many supernatural creatures, magic, and also those hunters...
When finally Hope could open her eyes, they were brimming with a genuine wonder.
She pondered for another two minutes before she decided that she was inside a carriage. The sa type of carriage that she rode together with the others to go to the harbor just a few days ago.
She wanted to jump from the bed, but the movent on this carriage made her head incredibly dizzy.
"You are awake?"
A guttural voice sounded from the behind the curtainthat divided the carriage from the coachn seat, before a man that Hope had seen before ca out from behind it.
He was the sa man who had kidnapped her from Kace and, cowardly, together with his fifteen n, surrounded the wounded white beast.
"Where is he?!" Hope was slightly glad when she heard her voice didn't shake when she said that, so the other person could see how serious she was now.
Despite her dizziness, Hope's main focus was to know how Kace and the other's condition.
"You are really under the witch's spell, aren't you?" That man was still holding onto his own conviction.
"Where is he?" Hope didn't budge from her initial question. She wouldn't say anything else except this question until he answered it.
"There is no way you will act like this if you are not under that witch's spell," he mumbled to himself, holding his chin and staring at her.
"WHERE. IS. HE!?" Hope lost it. She wanted the answer and she wanted it now.
However, after she strained her vocal, a sharp pain shot from her back to her dizzy mind made it clearer, but at the sa ti the pain made her gritted her teeth and clenched her fist as the mory flashed in fromthat ti when she was being stabbed reappeared.
"You need to calm down," that man took a flask from his h.i.p.s and gave it to Hope, yet she swatted it away until the water splashed both of them in the process.
"Answer !" Hope bit down her lips. She was frustrated. Why did this man say nothing except nonsense? Why didn't he let her know where her friends and mate were?"
"I have been trying to be nice to you!" his voice was stern so did his expression, it seed like he almost ran out of his patience to handle Hope's temper.
"I don't need you to be nice to when you are the one who had caused this!" Hope exploded. "Your man almost killed ! Do you think you were saving ? And just because I stared at you at the bar, you assud that I was asking for your help?! No, I don't need your help! I want my friend back!"
This sounded very stupid and this misunderstanding was fatal.
That man narrowed his eyes at Hope. He rembered and witnessed it clearly, if it was not because of the beast pushed away his man, who couldn't stop his movent to stab the beast, Hope would have died by now.
The spear was not only made of silver, but it was also coated with poison. At that ti, he thought the beast would bite her off and killed the girl, but instead, it turned out the beast licked her wound. He knew what aning of that.
As if to answer Hope's question, the carriage suddenly stopped and there was a loud commotion that could be heard before a man opened the carriage door and reported their situation.
"The beast went berserk again!" he shouted to the man with urgency.
No need for him to tell, even Hope could hear the howl and snarl from Kace's beast, though the sound of it tore her heart, but at the sa ti she was glad, Kace was alright… that at least, he was alive.
"Damn! This is already the third ti that the spell didn't work on him." That man grumbled and jumped out of the carriage, didn't even bother with the girl anymore.
Of course Hope wouldn't just sit there obediently and continued her beautiful nap, ignoring the pain, Hope followed him.
And the sight that she saw was heart-wrenching.
