Chapter 1111: Side story: i love drama

This was another day in the castle, to be precise, two weeks after the three Donovan brothers reunited for the first time after centuries of being in a cold war with each other.

The interaction between them was still very perfunctory, but at least they were on the same page when they discussed how to defeat the devils.

Meanwhile, the three guardian angels were trying to figure out the extent of their own power to make the most of it. And one of the things that they did was learning how to fight.

Fighting was not something new for Lilac, unlike the other two guardian angels.

For Hope, she used to fight when she was little whenever there was someone making fun of her. Yet, the skill that they needed to fight right now was different. She couldn't throw a punch and expect her opponent to bleed, nothing like those people that she fought before.

As for Raine, she never engaged in a real fight ever, since she spent almost half of her life in dreadful situations and was not in good condition.

Therefore, the two of them were trying to make Raine come out of her comfort zone and became bolder. They needed that in the upcoming war…

However, Hope seemed to take things too far and was very excited that they had another activity besides roaming around the castle and searching for information about their power, which they were unlikely to find an answer to.

"Raine, you need to punch him harder," Hope said exasperatedly when Raine punched a lycan warrior in front of her hesitantly. "You will be fine, right?" Hope looked at the lycan warrior, asking for his agreement.

"I will be fine Luna," he said, smiling at his Luna. As a matter of fact, he didn't know why he had to be a punching bag. It didn't mean that he was complaining, since every punch that Raine delivered barely made him blink his eyes, but… what actually were the three guardian angels trying to do?

Raine frowned at Hope and then looked at Lilac, who was sitting on the grass, grinning at her. She seemed to be enjoying this situation too much.

"Wait, why should I learn how to fight?" Raine complained. "It is not like the enemy we are facing will be weak enough to let me hit them, right?"

Lilac giggled when she heard that. She knew that Hope was just bored to death and wanted to do something different, but seeing the way she taught Raine how to fight was, kind of, entertaining. 

"But, what if the devil comes closer to you? At the very least, you will be able to defend yourself, right?" Hope was still stubborn with her stance.

Yet, Raine felt there was something wrong with her statement…

Even though the devils came very close to Raine, they wouldn't be exchanging fists to fight. Even if that was the case, it was very unlikely for her to win.

Meanwhile, not far from this group of three guardian angels and one lycan warrior, who were huddled under a lush tree in the yard, were the Donovan brothers, walking in the corridor after their long meeting with the other Alphas.

"What are they doing there?" Kace tilted his head when he noticed his mate talking to Raine very passionately.

Torak and Jedrek stopped walking as well, as they saw their respective mates.

"Your mate is teaching his mate how to fight," Jedrek said lightly, but his eyes stared intensely at Lilac, who was laughing. She looked radiant…

Jedrek had never seen Lilac being this happy and carefree before and somehow, the sight brought a soft smile to his lips. He knew that they still needed time to make this relationship workout…

"Can she fight?" Torak glanced at Kace, he doubted Hope's fighting skills.

"No," Kace said proudly.

Whether Hope could fight or not, it didn't matter. Because, it was fun enough to see the fire in her eyes when she told Raine that she made a wrong move, when she actually was clueless to begin with. Lilac then stood up and said something to the two, as she grew a few trees from the ground that slightly hid them from the three Donovan brothers' sight.

"Let them have their own time," Jedrek said as he walked ahead. "There are a few things that we need to discuss."

Torak frowned, he couldn't see Raine and what the other two guardian angels were doing, yet he knew there wouldn't be anything serious happening to her since one of his lycan warriors was with them.

However, before Torak and Kace could follow Jedrek, they caught sight of Hope running toward them.

"Jedrek!" Hope shouted his name with urgency and made the king halt. "Lilac! She is hurt! You need to see her!"

"What?" Jedrek furrowed his eyebrows, but didn't wait for Hope to explain further because a second later, he started sprinting across the yard to find his mate.

From behind the trees that Lilac grew, Raine walked out and her eyes caught sight of Torak. She smiled when she saw Torak run toward her.

"Are you okay? What happened?" he asked worriedly.

"I am fine," Raine replied, confused, but then she understood. "Oh, Lilac just got her finger scraped because Hope said Jedrek is staring at her."

"But, it didn't sound like that." Torak meant the way Hope informed Jedrek. It sounded like Lilac just cut her entire arm instead.

Raine laughed. "She just exaggerated things."

And not long after that, they could hear Jedrek and Lilac arguing behind the tree.

Meanwhile, Hope was grinning at her mate while she was being scolded. "Their relationship is not as good as ours." Kace grumbled. "You know that you don't need to shout across the yard as if there was a crazy lycan attacking you, right?"

"Nah, it will not be fun that way." Hope waved her hands and pulled Kace's hand to walk closer, so she could eavesdrop on their argumentation. "I love drama."

On the other hand, Torak took Raine away from there, he didn't want his mate to be with those people.
