Chapter 664 - YOU WILL NOT DIE SO EASILY

Jedrek was talking to Lyrus about the issues regarding the devils when he felt the snap of the mate bond between him and Lilac.

"What happened?" Lyrus asked in concern when he felt the King anxiousness.

Jedrek didn't answer him for a moment, as he closed his eyes and calmed his self down before he spoke grimly. "Where did you say Tordoff and Warlock?"

Lyrus tilted his head, he didn't understand why Jedrek asked this question, yet he answered him anyway. "They will leave to the southern region in an hour. I think they were already at the west gates."

Jedrek gritted his teeth to fight the urge to lash out. He could feel it in his bone that Tordoff was nowhere near the west gates.

"Find them." Jedrek stood up. "And bring them to me before they go."

Lyrus wanted to ask about Jedrek's sudden change, but seeing how gloomy the Alpha was, he swallowed hard his question. This was not a good time for him to interfere.

"Will do, your majesty." Lyrus nodded his head and excused himself with question in his mind.

However, once Lyrus was out of the room, Jedrek also dashed out of the room. Regardless his order to Lyrus, he knew that Tordoff was not there. He was somewhere else with his mate.

Jedrek could feel it in his bone, something was wrong, the mate bond was getting weaker and weaker, since his beast was on edge since they had hurt Lilac.

Once Jedrek stepped on the hallway, the beast inside him couldn't take it any second longer, as he shifted into his white beast.

=============== 

Tordoff shook his head again and again, as he realized what crime that he was committing now. However, once he watched Lilac and how vulnerable she was now, he determined to bring her out of this place.

About where he should go? Tordoff didn't know. He was fully aware that nowhere was safe if it was his King, who chased after them, yet he was stubborn to make sure Lilac was safe.

Something about the girl moved his heart, in the same way when he watched his mate died before his eyes.

Is she his second chance? Tordoff didn't know. All he wanted to do now was to protect her from any harm.

He ran toward the western gates since the southern gates would be packed with many guards upon their departure to the northern region, with Lilac in his arms. He could feel her breathing was getting shallow.

"Tordoff?" Lilac stirred awake, she snuggled to his chest when the sunlight hit her face, forced her to shut her eyes tightly.

"Don't worry Lilac, I will bring you out from here. You will be safe." Tordoff reassured Lilac and held her close to him, despite the turmoil that he felt as he experienced mind- numbing terror and agonizing aches for fighting his Alpha's order, he could feel his beast purred in satisfaction.

In the other hand, Lilac gave him a small nod before she let him to bring her away.

Right at that time, Tordoff was too distracted to reach the gates as soon as possible, added to the fact that he was used to his scent, thus the general was caught out of guard in the last second he realized what was coming after him.

Tordoff was thrown to the side in full force. Lilac slipped from his arms, as her body dropped to the ground. He still could hear the girl gasped loudly when her body hit the ground.

Tordoff knocked down three trees before his body stopped flying and hit a big rock. The pain almost took his breath away and his blood started to trickle down from his open wounds.

However, he didn't have time to wait until his wounds were closed, because in the next second, the sharp claw of the Alpha King had torn his chest. An ugly gash was apparent, as he choked in his own blood, gasping for air.

Tordoff laid flat on his back, watched in horror when the Alpha King shifted back into his human skin, but his bloody red eyes remained, warning him that the beast was in control.

Jedrek prowled toward his general, bared his canines and stomped on his chest to strain off the wound in Tordoff's chest, didn't give him time to recover.

"Traitor." Jedrek spat those words with malice and Tordoff knew what would come next once he was marked as a traitor.

Ignoring the pain that shattered through his body, Tordoff hit the Alpha's leg away from his stomach and rolled onto his back. He knew Jedrek was going easy on him. The beast enjoyed to see the suffering of his opponent. It was in their nature.

Tordoff crawled back until he created a distance between them, though it wouldn't help him, but at least he could talk to Jedrek, bought some time to regain his bearing.

"Your Majesty." He was coughing blood, but he wiped it away harshly before he continued to speak. "The guardian angel will die if you keep her that way… she is sick."

Jedrek didn't give any respond to that.

"She needs treatment for her arm. You broke her arm," Tordoff reminded him. Black dotes started to appear before his eyes because of the blood loss that he suffered.

Yet, Jedrek didn't listen. He stretched out his hand and his claw tore the skin on Tordoff's left cheek. His eyes didn't move from the lycan, who was writhing in pain before him.

Tordoff knew, there would be nothing that he could do now, not even begging for forgiveness would be able to save his sorry life. He braced himself for the worst, prayed to the moon goddess that she would save Lilac from Jedrek's wrath.

The claws that dug into his skin deepened as Jedrek trailed the incision on his neck, creating another gashes.

But, when Tordoff had given up, Jedrek stop and spoke viciously. "You will not die so easily."
