Serefina.
That was the na that Raine could feel at the tip of her tongue when she watched the red haired witch with her familiar green li eyes, walking through the door with a smirk at the corner of her lips.
As soon as her figure was clear to see for them, the following event happened. As though the sound died down, the room beca exceptionally quiet, just like a buzzing sound from the television was turned off, everything beca still, even the wind had stopped blowing.
Raine didn't realize this until she watched how Sybil and Belinda were standing in weird positions, bending their bodies to look at Hope, as if they didn't realize that Serefina ca into the room.
Maybe they didn't, because ti had been stopped for them.
However, that was not the sa case for Raine, Torak and Kace. The first one, who cracked the silence that was being stretched out upon the appearance of the witch, was Kace.
"Serefina!" he called out her na in surprise, but there was no hostility in his tone, only bafflent.
It was very strange to have Serefina visit them now of all tis, since they knew that the witch had crossed the bridge and sided with the devils, yet they couldn't help, but feel the sa familiarity toward her.
Ignoring the fact that Torak wasn't quite fond of her, yet, it was different for Kace.
As annoying as she was, Serefina was still soone, whom they had known for centuries, especially to Kace, as they had faced all ups and downs of the situation when the two of them beca rogues and chased down by Jedrek's people.
Serefina tilted her head to see Kace, who was still cradling Hope in his arms, yet the younger Donovan was lost for words.
In normal situation, he would cry for help and ask the witch to check Hope's condition, he would have pestered her until she told him what was wrong with Hope, but the situation now was a little bit conflicting.
"What are you doing here?" Torak asked grimly. If Serefina ca with good intentions, let's say she wanted to admit her mistake, which was not in the question since the witch wouldn't stop the ti if the aforentioned issue was her reason to pay them a visit. She was only provoking them even more by doing that.
Serefina didn't answer Torak's question, instead, she shifted her attention toward Raine, who was hiding behind Torak's broad back.
"Raine," Serefina called her na in a flat tone.
"What do you want WITCH?" Torak repeated his question, barring his fangs, as his eyes turned red.
On the bed, Kace shook his head. "Serefina it is not a good thing to provoke us at a ti like this." But, then he rembered sothing. "Did you do this to Hope?" Kace narrowed his red eyes at Serefina.
"No," she said firmly. "She did that to herself."
Kace couldn't understand what she ant by that, but odd enough, he still believed her. It was indeed true that old habits die hard.
"Raine!" Serefina raised her voice to get the guardian angel's attention. All she needed now was for her to look at her right in the eyes, after that, everything would be easier.
However, Torak was stubborn enough to not let Serefina see even a strand of his mate's hair, as he stood ramrod straight in front of her.
"Leave now, Serefina, before I tear you apart." Torak gritted his teeth, he was ready to shift, if Serefina dared to do sothing silly.
Yet, she didn't even spare him a glance, as her li green eyes remained fixed on Raine. She was trying to get the guardians angel's attention.
"Raine!" Serefina kept calling her na and Raine beca restless, she wanted to see the witch, but couldn't.
Torak had been warning her through mind- link that she couldn't see her neither was she allowed to answer the witch.
After all, Torak had lived long enough to familiarize himself with two or three tricks of the witch.
Knowing that Torak wouldn't budge and Raine wouldn't co out from her hiding place, Serefina could only look at Torak in annoyance.
"Do you want to tear apart?" Serefina asked with the sa annoying tone that she always used. "Co here and get ," she smirked tauntingly and backed away three steps.
Torak scoffed, he wouldn't buy it.
"What? You don't even want to greet with a warm hug?" Serefina tilted her head, provoking the Alpha even further.
However, before she could say another word, she was forced to move very fast to the side when she felt soone was approaching her.
It was Kace in his beast form.
The white lycan landed on his fours and snarled viciously at her. In his opinion, if Serefina didn't co here to help them, then she should leave, instead of adding one more trouble for them to deal with.
"What is it? Why did you attack now, Kace?" she feigned a surprised expression, but the look in her eyes was anything but surprise. She had expected this.
"Kace, back away," Torak talked to Kace in a warning tone, yet, his younger brother wouldn't listen easily as usual, especially when he was under the control of his beast. He followed his instinct and his instinct now told him to make the witch scram out of their sights.
"Do you really think that by keeping the war on going will give you a solution?" Serefina talked, but her eyes were on alert, anticipating Torak or Kace's move. "I have told you that you will die, haven't I?" This last question was directed to Raine.
Out of instinct, Raine poke her head from behind Torak's back and glared viciously at Serefina. "You are the one who will die!" Raine shouted at the witch.
However, only then did she realize her mistake when she watched a triumphant smirk appearing at the corner of Serefina's lips as she mouthed. 'Gotcha.'
The last thing before the darkness consud her was the sight of the white beast that charged toward Serefina coupled with Torak's frenzied voice, calling out her na.
anwhile, after she succeeded doing what she wanted to do, Serefina teleported herself out of the reach of the two Donovan brothers as the ti started ticking again.
