Chapter 1064: What are we looking for?

"I don't want to see any other man naked aside from my mate," she said viciously, but then her face fell when she realized what she just had said. "Oh, Calleb... I didn't mean to..."

Raine grimaced. She knew the word 'mate' was a sensitive issue for Calleb now and she just messed his cool again. Calleb knew this too, but it seemed this was not the right time to bring that topic up again.

Calleb gave Raine a reassuring smile and opened his arms. "Come here."

Raine didn't even need to ponder for a second before she ran toward him and snuggled into his embrace. "I am sorry."

"Don't be..." Calleb hugged the guardian angel and felt safe. "I should thank you for reaching out to me."

If it was not for Raine, Calleb would have gone feral by now and there was no going back again.

"I will be fine..." Calleb said and he felt Raine nodding against his chest.

However, their moment together was disturbed when Torak entered the tent all of a sudden, without announcing his presence or counting to ten.

The Alpha's brows immediately knitted together upon seeing the sight that greeted him straight up as soon as he put a step inside.

"Hands off of her," Torak said grimly, he looked daggers at his Beta.

Calleb didn't need to be told twice, as he threw his arms up, in a surrender gesture. Meanwhile, Raine glanced at Torak and smiled cheekily at her jealous mate.

"Raine, come here."Torak shifted his focus onto his mate.

But, before Raine went to Torak, she tiptoed and kissed Calleb's cheek and this action made the Beta widen his eyes in horror.

"Raine, you just saved me from the dark, but your actions will only get me killed by your mate," Calleb grumbled exaggeratedly.

Yet, the guardian angel didn't heed that statement and immediately ran toward Torak, who kissed her deeply, as if he was claiming what belonged to him.

"Everything is ready?" Raine asked breathlessly after Torak finally pulled away from her.

"Yes," He said.

"Let's end this." Calleb remarked.

============== 

Raine and Lilac visited Hope inside the tent and the three of them hugged each other before Lilac and Jedrek could be teleported to a different place by Belinda and Sybil.

But, when they just came outside, Lilac caught sight of Bree, who was staring at them from afar, too afraid to come closer. Or maybe she was just too timid.

"Bree, come here..." Lilac waved her hand to the little girl and she ran toward them.

The guardian angel then knelt in front of her and kissed her cheek softly, as Bree hugged her tightly.

"I am going to miss you..." The little girl said softly, but her words sounded like a farewell, it was like she knew that she would never see her again.

"I am going to miss you too," Lilac kissed her hair and released her.

Post that, Bree raised both of her arms toward Jedrek, who scooped her up and hugged her. "Please return safely, me and the other people will fight here."

Jedrek didn't know that he was this close to the little girl before, until she worried about him openly, but what she said warmed his heart.

"I will." Jedrek nodded. "You too, be safe little warrior."

Bree smiled widely. She liked how Jedrek addressed her.

And after a few more minutes of saying goodbyes to each other, Sybil and Belinda were ready to do their job.

"Stand closer," Belinda instructed the two of them, as they stood, at least, a meter away.

At first, Lilac didn't make any movement, she just mumbled 'just do it', but Jedrek closed the distance between them and pulled her closer, resting his arm on her hips.

Only then, did blue fire engulf their figures and swallowed Lilac's surprised expression from the people present, as the two of them disappeared into thin air, along with the blue fire.

The sun above them shone brightly in the clear sky, it looked like a perfect day that would be filled with smiles, but that was not the case as everyone under it knew what they would face soon.

Torak grabbed Raine's hand and looked at her.

No words were needed to be exchanged between them, but there was a tacit understanding, even louder than the actual words.

And not long after the disappearance of Jedrek and Lilac, one of the lycans came to them to report that they had seen the humans creeping closer this place.

Once again, the devils were using the humans to fight them as they knew it would be a great disadvantage for their kind to kill them off.

"Be ready," Raine said.

==============   

Jedrek and Lilac appeared right in front of the house, no, it looked like a bar.

It was a building, painted in light brown color with high roof and a welcome sign on the front door, though it was still afternoon when they set off, the sky in this place was dark and they could see nothing else around them, except for this building.

"It seems like this is the building that Raine had mentioned," Lilac murmured to herself and walked forward, but Jedrek grabbed her hand and walked ahead, keeping her slightly behind him.

Lilac raised her head to see the king right after he made that gesture, but he didn't even look at her, as he led her inside.

This was a two- storey building with a dark aura surrounding it. Not to mention it was so quiet for a place like a bar and it went without saying that the more quiet a place was, the more dangerous it was.

Both of them climbed stairs to the roof and opened the door. During that time, though the dark magic was quite powerful, still Lilac managed to redeem it, making their journey inside easier.

Once the door was opened, the foul smell of alcohol assaulted their noses and Jedrek grunted, disgusted by the scent, since he had a strong sense of smell.

"What are we looking for?" Jedrek broke the silence between them for the first time.

"A book," Lilac replied.
