"I will tell Rossie if you said sothing like that again." Ethan was Rossie's brother, of course he would take offense on what Calleb said. He was an overprotective brother to begin with after all.
Calleb rolled his eyes when he heard that. "You will not take my words seriously, right? Do you think Kace will let go alive when I do sothing atrocious to his mate? I want to live, okay."
It was just a slip of his tongue. He was frustrated and wanted to do anything and everything just to be with his mate, thus his mind and what he spoke was not in a good sync.
"Okay, enough." Hope sat down again and then stared at Raine. She wanted to know what would Raine suggest about the situation that she was facing now. "Give another ten minutes."
Hearing this, Calleb and Ethan groaned, but they didn't say anything for another two minutes before soone opened the door and Theseus walked in.
"What are you doing here?" Calleb narrowed his eyes and looked at the newly appointed dragon lord in alert. He didn't like him since his father ca to take Raphael's son, as if the baby was akin to a missing bag.
"Nothing," Theseus said, smiling. "I heard the two guardian angels have woken up, so I want to know our current situation now, or whether if there is sothing that I can help with."
"But, why are all of your people outside the door?" Calleb glared at the dragon lord. Just because he lost his beast, it didn't an his senses had decreased.
"They are guarding this room." Theseus walked closer and Calleb put Hope behind his back. "You don't have to be like this to , we are in this together, right?"
"You shouldn't be here," Ethan said.
"Where should I be?" Theseus shifted his attention toward the young werewolf. "I am not allowed to shift into my beast and now I am given a task to stay in this place and do what? There is nothing I can do here."
"I want you to get out of this room, now. This place is not for public." Sohow Calleb knew that Theseus wouldn't do what he asked.
"Can't I visit? I just want to see that the guardian angels were fine." His eyes then looked around the room, as if he just realized sothing. "Where is the queen, Lilac? She is not here?"
"Get out now!" Calleb roared. He didn't know what happened out there. And, from the scent in the air, which was filled with those dragon shifters' scent, whatever it was, it wouldn't be good… where is the other lycan warriors and Stephan?
"I will," Theseus said politely.
Yet, what he said only contradicted what happened next, because at the sa ti, around ten people entered the room. All of them were dragon shifters.
"But, after I took the guardian angels with ." He smirked triumphantly. Knowing that neither Ethan nor Calleb could shift into their beasts, it was an easy task to take them down and take Hope and Raine away.
The two guardian angels were not Lilac, they were not of combatant type, especially when the guardian angel of ti wouldn't be able to stop anything, even ti at the mont.
==============
Raine opened her eyes and the darkness greeted her. She was still inside her room, but tomorrow she would go to a different city, because she would start a new life as a colleague student and she couldn't wait for that.
She would live in the dorm and return when she got day off or holidays. Her life was perfect. However, she knew one secret.
Aside from her ability to see what other people couldn't see, she knew there was soone, who was protecting her from the shadows and this very person was now sitting in her chair.
But, for so reason, Raine was not afraid of him, instead, she wanted him to stop hiding and talk to her.
Therefore, Raine let him sit there for quite so ti, making him think that she was sleeping, where the truth was she was just pretending.
When Raine felt this was the right mont to speak and the shadow man seed very comfortable with what he was doing now, Raine talked with her back facing him.
"Aeon, is that you?" Raine said. She was eighteen years old now and she thought it was enough for him to stop avoiding her.
Raine could hear a sharp breath intake which ca from the man and the sound that he made when he hastily got up from his seat, wanting to run away again.
"Stop running away from ," Raine said, she got up and threw her blanket aside. "I know you."
This ti, Aeon froze in his place, with his back facing the girl, he was indeed about to run away, but after realizing that Raine actually knew his na, held him back.
"How did you know my na?" he asked.
His husky and heavy voice was very familiar in her ears and she had forgotten when was the last ti that she heard him. It seed his voice ca from her dream or another life.
"Of course I know you, you have been protecting for years by now," Raine said smoothly. She stood up and walked slowly toward Aeon, she didn't want to make him run again. "Can you turn around and see ?"
Aeon didn't give any reaction, he just stood there in the sa position, seemingly having an arguntation with himself, whether he should do what Raine asked him to do or not.
"Aeon?" Raine placed her hand against his broad back. The shadow warrior was wearing a black jacket and his hair was slightly ssy. "Aeon, thank you for always being here for ."
At that ti, the shadow warrior chose to stop being in the shadows and turned around to face the girl that he had been protecting for years by now.
"You are not afraid of ?" he asked with knitted brows.
"No, of course not." Raine smiled softly. "You are my protector, right?"
