The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 583 - A LONG NIGHT

Kace was slightly taken aback by Hope's bold request, but when he watched how his little mate grinned happily upon seeing his reaction, he knew that she was only teasing him.

Well, Kace was more than happy to play along with his sweet mate.

"Why are you running? Come here." Kace waved his hand at Hope, gesturing her to come closer, yet the girl was running towards the house. "You said you want a kiss? I will give you as many kisses as you want. Come here."

Meanwhile, Hope was laughing heartily. It was so nice to let out some tensions by teasing each other like this, after so many deaths that occurred in less than three hours before.

However, it didn't last for long. If they thought the battle in the village had over, and they succeeded to drive away all the demon wolves, they were totally wrong.

All of a sudden Kace and Hope could hear a loud scream from inside the house. It was Mrs. Lori, followed by a loud sound of explosion.

For a moment, Hope froze, she dared not to breathe.It felt like her heart had stopped beating upon seeing what was happening before her eyes. Then, Kace reached her and pulled her back immediately.

Kace turned his body while hugging Hope, so that his back was facing the house to protect his mate from the debris or dangerous flying object that was thrown because of the blast.

"What is happening?" Hope shut her eyes tightly when the second explosion was heard. Though this time, it was not as loud as the first one, from the sound of it, it seemed the house was collapsed.

Kace didn't answer her, he carried her body and ran a few meters away. He put a great distance between them and whatever the thing that caused the explosion in order to get Hope to safety.

When the eerie sound of the explosion had ended, Hope opened her eyes and poked her head from Kace's strong arms, to see the scene behind his body.

It wasn't a good sight to see…

Just like how the sound had given them the idea of what was happening.The house was indeed, had flattened to the ground.

"What about the others?" Her voice was barely a whisper.

Lana, Ethan, Ian, Mr. and Mrs. Lori and also… Bree.

As for the shape shifters, the three of them probably would only get some wounds.But for the humans, they wouldn't survive that kind of explosion, right?

Hope's body shivered involuntarily to think what could happen to the Lori family. What was happening just now? Wasn't the battle over?

Meanwhile, Kace wanted to check on the rest of the people. But he didn't want to leave Hope alone there, or brought her with him to go near the wreckage of the house. He was still not sure what the cause of it was.

"Kace, we have to check them out," Hope spoke in a low voice, despite her fear, apparently her concern to them was greater.

However, before Kace could decide what he should do next, a moment later, there were movements on the ground. And then, Hope watched in horror as a human's head emerged from the ground.

But, not just a very ugly face, there was a neck, shoulder and body too.

The most impressive sight was its huge size… it was twice of the white beast's size.

"What is that?" Hope managed to ask in a low whisper, as she clutched onto Kace's shirt tightly.

"Troll," Kace answered grimly. "The creatures in this realm are getting weirder," he mumbled. The lycan didn't even know that trolls were still alive.Their kind was believed to be extinct centuries ago, and somehow turned out to live as a mere folklore.

"I don't like this realm," Hope grimaced when the troll swung its big hands and stomped his big feet on the wreckage of the house.

"I don't like it since the first time I stepped my foot into this realm." Kace remembered the mad wolf that he had to fight the first time he entered this realm. "The troll looks strange…"

"There is nothing normal about this creature.He is so hideous." Hope scowled when she watched how the troll was drooling. Ugh!

Even at times like this, Kace found Hope's comment was funny. "That is not what I meant." Kace squinted his eyes at the troll. "The size of the troll… I have never seen a troll with this size."

Normally, the size of a troll was as big as a human.Although they were very strong, they also slow and dimwitted.

However, what they were seeing right before their eyes now, was totally different.

The troll looked as if he was looking for something in the rubble. Only when his big finger that was the size of Hope's arm, picked something from the ground. Hope covered her mouth when she watched in horror at the thing that he picked up.

It was Ethan, or… Ian? Hope couldn't distinguish the twins from the distance. Beside her, she could hear Kace cursing under his breath as he growled in annoyance.

"Stay here Hope."

As soon as he said it, Kace had turned into his white beast again. It seemed the night would be filled with another battle after battle.

It looked like the time when they could rest was very unlikely to come any time soon.

Hope didn't need to be told twice, the strenuousness in Kace's voice was enough to make her understand the danger of this situation.

In front of her, Hope watched how the beast dashed towards the rumble and leapt as high as the troll's arms and bit down its wrist. historical

The twin's body fell from such high, but before his body could crush to the ground, he shifted into his beast.

It was Ethan, Hope could see the yellow streak on its neck. His beast was the color of sand. The sand colored wolf leapt to safety and whimpered.

"Ethan!" Hope shouted as she rushed towards her friend, and helped him to walk a little bit further from the white lycan and the troll, while they were busy taking down each other.
