The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 444 - THIRTEEN YEARS OLD (8)

"Why are you with the Donovan?" Aidan stopped three steps away from Hope, leaning his body against the wall next to him, didn't even bother when he watched Hope was grabbing the handle of the door, ready to flee. "You know who is he?"

Hope knew Kace's last name was Donovan, but… "That the same question that I want to ask him too if you don't mind to let me live a little bit longer." Hope answered offhandedly. She reached her pocket and swept her hand across her phone screen that she assumed it would answer the call, whoever it is.

"Hmm." Aidan rubbed his chin. "So, you don't know?" his voice a little bit off as he contemplated. "Don't you think that you are too ignorance, little girl?"

Hope scoffed. She had been living with Serefina for as long as she could remember, of course there were one or two traits of that witch that she got. Especially, her arrogant personality when it came to threat.

"If you know him very well, then you should have known he would come to this house, right in the second corridor where it next to gym." Hope rumbled about her location, so whatever the caller was could hear that, moreover if that was really Kace.

"Are you trying to give your location?" Aidan's golden eyes traced her body and stopped at her pocket, where Hope's phone was.

Hope didn't say anything, but her silence broke in that very second when she felt something exploded on her pocket.

Hope dropped to the floor, clutching her h.i.p.s where she could feel her phone had been shattered and the sharp shard pierced her jeans and skin. Her breath hitched with the pain that came after that.

She bit her bottom lips to stop her from crying. She could feel the area on her h.i.p.s soaked with liquid. Blood?

Hope gritted her teeth as she shot a menacing glare at Aidan or whatever he was at this moment.

The pain was so real! She had never felt this kind of pain before. No. Kace and Lana would make sure she would never be in any kind of pain before!

There was a moment when she fell from the stairs and Kace would wreck some havoc just to get her to the hospital, though it was still bearable. He scolded Lana for so long because of that.

Aidan sniffed the air with eyes closed, relishing the scent of Hope's blood that almost like a drug for him and this made Hope felt disgusted just to see him.

"It is so annoying to be in this body…" Aidan murmured as he ambled toward Hope, who was still crouching on the floor, clutching her bleeding h.i.p.s.

Hope tried to move away from Aidan, but the pain prevented her to do so.

"I wonder, what are you?" Aidan dropped to his knees and stared at Hope's eyes. The helpless sight of her pulled a harmless smile on his lips. "I have never come across scent like this except a few years ago…" historical

Gluttony still remembered clearly that child's scent even now, it would be great if he had that girl and this one…

Aidan gripped Hope's chin as the girl glared at him menacingly and this only made him chuckles. "Such a brave girl you are…"

Aidan's golden eyes traced down at the Hope's fingers where her blood soaked through the fabric of her pants.

He stretched out his hand to touch the liquid, but a deep frown morphed on his face when he looked at his forefinger, the tip of it which made contact with Hope's blood was badly charred.

"What happened with this?" Aidan's grip on Hope's chin loosened as he stared at his finger. "How could this happen?"

Aidan was puzzled, but Hope was at lost as well. Because their close proximity, she could see how her blood had that effect on him, yet her mind worked faster to help herself from this situation.

Looking at the burn on Aidan's finger, she knew what she has to do.

Hope raised her bloody hand and pushed Aidan away from her with that very hand, smeared her blood on his face.

Gluttony didn't expect this move from Hope, thus this action caught him out of guard as he stumbled backward while covering his face. It burned badly.

A shrill scream followed afterward, echoing in that empty corridor. Hope watched how Aidan rolled on the floor, clutching his face as he screamed in pain.

Even with that commotion there was no one came to look what was happening, Hope became wonder what had happened to the rest of her friends.

Yet, she couldn't stay there any longer and wait for Aidan to recover, or became too upset to even engage in conversation like before.

Thus, ignoring the seared pain that shot through her h.i.p.s, Hope opened the door beside her and pushed herself out of that house.

She closed the door and used it as her support to stand up. The pain made her groan and curse under her breath.

Now, there was no way for her to make a contact to Kace since whatever creature that possessed Aidan had destroyed it.

She had to find another way, but first, she had to find the main gate so she could escape from this house. It would take enormous effort with her bleeding h.i.p.s.

Ignoring the pain, Hope drag herself along the side yard, she still could hear Aidan's scream before it became very quite.

The power had not yet fixed, hence the only light that helped Hope to see was only the pale moonlight.

Instead of being in the middle of the city, Hope felt like she was in middle of nowhere, everything was very dark and quiet.

Hope didn't know how long she had walked, but the moment her eyes caught a sight of the white wolf, she could feel her tensed body relax almost immediately.

However, the white wolf snarled and dashed toward her with his sharp fangs on full display.
