Chapter 79 - 78

The hotel seemed to be in an uproar, something that was actually suspicious because in all of their stupidity Mikain had always warned them about laying low. As he entered he could immediately feel the danger, an ominous feeling in the air, mixing with his own fear. He felt nauseous but he kept walking, wanting to find the source of what was happening.

On his way to the elevator someone was waiting for him. Reina, his friend, was standing at the side of the spacious lounge, her eyes scanning the room every two seconds for him. The moments their eyes met she rushed towards him, hugging him tightly.

"I am sorry. I am so sorry about what happened. I want you to know none of this is your fault and I hope that this bastard one days burns in the deepest pits of hell." She whispered and Philip smiled.

"Thanks. I will be okay." He stated, trying to sound brave and the girl caressed his arm.

"Even if you're not okay, that's fine too. You should take your time." She advised him and the raven haired man shook his head. Her words were comforting, well thought. He was lucky to have her as a friend.

"Reina" he called her.

"Yes, I know. You can feel it too" she said and Philip nodded again. He was glad it wasn't only him, that weird sensation that seemed to make him shiver. Something had happened or was about to.

"What is going on?" He asked. Reina looked around, making sure no one was observing them and took Philip's hand, pulling him to the side. She took a piece of paper from the pocket of her cardigan and handed it to him. Philip looked at it confused and unfolded it, seeing a whole text written by her.

"I think it's better if they don't hear us." She said, Philip realizing that she had written everything she wanted to tell him so no one was eavesdropping on them.

The leader of the witch coven Mikain had promised to sell Kai's part to, visited Mikain and threatened him. He told him to hurry and now he is in a rage fit. He has sent hundreds of people to the city searching for Kai. Mikain doesn't believe the prince has left and he wants to find him fast. He even sent Mika out there, he will probably call us too. We won't be able to hide his tracks for too long.

That was what the text Reina had written for him said. Philip read it twice, to make sure he understood the situation. He had to think of something, he had warned Kai to stay in, not do anything stupid so that would keep him for a while inside but still Mikain wouldn't calm down if he didn't find anything to give to these witches and if they were not satisfied every single one of them would end up dead.

"That idiot. He has doomed the whole pack" Philip said between gritted teeth and crumbled the paper in his hand, shoving it in his pocket. "What are we going to do?" He asked Reina but this was the first time the girl didn't have a plan.

She looked at him, her big eyes filled with sadness. Giving Kai to them would simply destroy Philip but at the same time if no prince was delivered the whole pack would have to die. Mikain was an idiot, he underestimated one of the strongest witch covens, believed he could do whatever he wanted and now everything would get ruined.

"I don't think we will get a solution through Mikain." The girl said, rubbing her chin while she tried to think. Loud sigh escaped Philip's lips, he wanted one peaceful day. That would be enough and then he would be able to think again. He felt as if his brain was stuck, too much information had been gathered on it and it was on overload. He placed his palm on the cold wall, putting his body weight on his arm and closed his eyes, trying to figure out something, maybe even a way to stop this whole thing and not just stall for time.

He opened his eyes, surprised with his own idea and looked at Reina.

"What?" She asked him, recognizing immediately the look on his face.

"We don't need Mikain to stop this." He told her and she frowned.

"What do you mean? He is the root of the problem, obviously we need him to just go away" she said.

"What if we actually found another way? Approached the right people, people who could force Mikain to stop." He hinted and Reina's eyes widened. She parted her lips, taking a sharp breath as she realized what Philip was talking about.

"You want us to go to the witches." She said and Philip grinned.

"Yes." He answered her.

"If we get caught it will be considered as betrayal and we will be executed." She reminded him.

"Mikain's failed plan will kill us anyway." Her friend reminded her. "Are you in?" He asked her and she scoffed.

"Always." She answered.

Reina was the kind of friend you could always count on. No matter the danger and no matter the mess you would force her to get into she would always be there, smart and ready to save the day. Philip had never realized that up until now, during these moments when his brain was ready to explode she was being the perfect ally and his support. She didn't ask questions, she didn't try to change his mind and she didn't meddle in the things Philip didn't want her to. She simply believed and cared for him.
