The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 433 - NINE YEARS OLD (2)

"What the hell happened to you?!"

That was the first impression of Kace when he watched Hope walked into the apartment with blood and mud all over her body as Serefina had not yet cleaned her up.

"Kace!" Hope ran toward Kace and jumped with arms opened, she knew that he would catch her. "You are here!"

Serefina drew a depress sigh when she watched the lycan was visiting again. "Yeah, he is here." Then she walked straight toward her room, didn't want to be bothered with the those people.

"No!" Kace caught Hope, but he didn't swing her like he always did, instead he put her down and scrutinized her face and this made her pouted her lips. "What happened to you? Did you fight with someone?"

Hope nodded her head vigorously, her eyes shone brilliantly when she spoke. "I did! I gave Drake a punch on his face!" She balled her small fist and punched the air.

Kace raised his eyebrows. "You punched him?" he knew who was Drake.

That boy had annoyed Hope since the first day of their school, but this was the first time that they actually fought with each other.

"Yes! I punched him like this!" Hope swung her arms and then used her feet to kick the air. "And kicked him like this!"

Seeing how energetic his mate, a big panic that Kace felt before was disappeared, though he was still concern with a small cut on her forehead.

"Okay, my precious one, I guess you win the fight?" Kace brushed away stray hair from her forehead to see if she got another cut, but to his relieve it was only dirt and the blood was not her either.

"Yes! I made him cry!" Hope jumped excitedly. "Do you believe it? I made a boy cry!" historical

Kace chuckled as he picked her up from the ground and kissed her forehead. "Yes, I believe it. You will make men cry when you grew up, my little one. But, now we will clean up your wound, alright?"

Hope didn't understand what Kace was talking about, but she didn't fuss over it and let Kace to put her down on the edge of her bed while he went outside to get medicine box.

Kace come back not so long after that and squatted down in front of Hope.

"Kace." Hope asked while looking how diligent and gentle Kace when he cleaned her wound.

"Hm?" Kace replied without lifting his head. "What is it babe?"

"Do you feel that?" Hope grimaced a bit when Kace poked her wound on her knee cup, apparently she hurt that part too.

"Feel what?" Kace blew the wound because Hope was in pain when he brushed the cotton with alcohol on it.

"This." Hope put spread her fingers and put her palm on the side of Kace's face as the tingling feeling crept from the skin to skin contact. "Do you feel it?"

Absolutely Kace would feel the same sensation, "Yes."

"Why I just feel this when I touch you?" Hope put her hand down and tilted her head. Her habit when she was confused. "But, when I touched other people I don't feel this ticklish?"

Kace put plaster on the cut of her knee cup before he sat down on the bad and angled her head to face him.

The cut on her forehead wasn't bad either, but by seeing there was dry blood there, the sight didn't settle well with Kace or his beast. He frowned slightly.

"When you grow up, I will tell you." Kace smiled at her.

Hope was only nine years old, how he explained this to her? Told her that she is his mate? This wasn't the right time yet.

Hope pouted sullenly. "Why don't you tell me now?" The older she gets, the more critical her way of thinking. "Is it because of the wolf inside of you?"

Hope poked Kace's chest with her finger and glanced up at him while he was cleaning her wound.

"Yes, you can say that." Kace nodded.

"But, why I don't feel the same way when I touched Lana? She has a wolf too." Hope just knew that Lana could turn into a wolf a year ago, when she was sick and Kace took her to the hospital, Lana shifted into her brown wolf and it was so beautiful, though not as beautiful as the white one.

"Yes, but her wolf is different from mine." Kace put a plaster on her wound that immediately made Hope stopped asking question as she grimaced in pain.

Kace chuckled and kissed her forehead. "Go and clean up. You smell like mud." Yet he didn't mind it, her scent was always the best smell for him.

"Will you let the wolf to play with me?" Hope jumped from her bed and looked at Kace expectantly.

"Sure." Kace agreed, how he couldn't agree under those eyes?

Hope was literally jumping up and down when she went to the bathroom.

Afterward, Kace walked out of her room and found Serefina was in the living room, staring blankly at the book in her laps.

"Have you found her?" Serefina asked the moment Kace sat down across from her. She lifted her gaze from whatever book that she was reading. "I can feel it. She is around this area."

Kace rubbed his face harshly when he heard that question. "No." he hated that answer. "I have been looking around this area, but I couldn't find her."

Serefina could sense it since months ago that Gluttony had been poking around the edge of her protection, but because the devil didn't have scent, it was quite hard to track her down.

"I am pretty sure she is near." Serefina mumbled, she didn't like it when someone scouted her area.

"She is very agile and good at hiding" Kace grumbled, but then he started to notice this. "Where is Lana? She will disappear if I am here."

"She runs my errand." Serefina answered curtly, perusing her book once again.
