Chapter 1071: Yes, you hurt me

On top of the white beast, Raine squinted her eyes, as she concentrated on her own task.

==============

Inside the hut, Kace was unfazed when he heard the loud commotion from outside that told him another war had started, because that couldn\'t attract his attention... He could only focus on what was right in front of him; his dying mate...

Apparently, restraining three devils in her realm, rewarded this side effect to Hope. Her condition became weaker with every second that passed and there was nothing Kace could do except to hold her hands and stay beside her, waiting for the other guardian angels to finish their task, so Hope could end hers.

And after that...

Kace didn\'t even want to think what would happen after that...

No one knew what would happen, but somehow, they knew the worst things would still be lurking around the corner when all of this over.

When all the guardian angels had finished their missions, the sole reason why they were resurrected in the first place.

Kace did not care about the deaths out there, because the only death that could scare him to his wits end was the one which was lurking around his mate...

"If I am fortunate enough to get ressurected again, I want to tour around the world with you..." Hope said softly. Her face looked very pale, just like how she was when she just escaped from the grip of the death that forced Kace to mark her. "What do you think?"

Hope was trying to make Kace think other things aside from the sorrowful fact in his mind. But, it seemed her attempt was not really successful, since the only response she got from from Kace was silence.

"If I come back, I want you to take me on a date... a real date..." Hope turned around and looked at Kace, running her fingers in his hair. "The last time you took me on a date, I couldn\'t get to enjoy as it was ruined by Abby and Leon." Hope pouted.

Of course Kace remembered that. If he could say, he was willing to give up everything just to return to that time...

Everything seemed more easier during that time, he had everything he needed and was sure that Hope was safe under Serefina and Lana\'s care.

But, death was the inevitable outcome of war, and everyone have their own turns, the only thing was no one knew when it comes knocking on their door.

"I hated Abby for ruining our date and flirting with you." Hope scowled, her brows were scrunched together, but her voice was soft. "But now I feel thankful for her because she and her brother had saved Bree..."

And now Leon and Abby were also a part of those people, who were fighting in the war out there.

"Hm..." Kace could only give her that response, as he stared at their intertwined fingers. He would be besid her to make sure Hope was safe and also because he didn\'t want to leave her alone.

"Kace..." Hope stretched out her hand to touch Kace\'s chin to tip his head up, so he could see her. "This is not a goodbye, you know that..."

Kace gritted his teeth when he heard that, but didn\'t say anything to answer her back.

"Kace..." Hope frowned when her mate kept refusing to make an eye contact with her. "Look at me."

Reluctantly, Kace raised his head and looked at Hope, when their eyes met he couldn\'t hold back the fear that he had been trying to surpress.

"I am afraid Hope... I don\'t want to lose you..." A tear fell on his cheeks which was followed by another then another.

"You will not lose me... This is not a goodbye..." Hope pushed herself up, so she could hug her mate and let him cry on her shoulder.

Yes, this is not a goodbye...

They hoped so...

==============

Jedrek needed a few more minutes to calm down, but even though his body had stopped trembling, he was still hugging Lilac, afraid to let her go.

During which no words were exchanged between them, until a question from Jedrek broke the serenity.

"Would you come back to me if the moon goddess gave you a chance to return?" Jedrek asked in a low voice.

Her hand that was caressing Jedrek\'s back stopped when Lilac heard the question that she had been asking herself and still couldn\'t find the answer.

Even after Jedrek asked her out loud, Lilac couldn\'t find it in her to say \'yes\' with certainty.

The longer Lilac didn\'t answer his question, the more Jedrek knew he had lost his mate... Lilac wouldn\'t let him wait for an answer if she realy intended to come back to him, but the silence she gave him was also an answer.

"We have to go now," Lilac said, patting Jedrek\'s back. "We shouldn\'t waste any more time here, everyone is waiting for the result..."

Jedrek felt the hollow in his heart getting bigger when he heard that, but he nodded in agreement. "Yes, let\'s go..."

Reluctantly, and very slowly, Jedrek let go of Lilac and stood up.

On the other hand, Lilac watched Jedrek\'s expression when they started to walk in search of the book that they were trying to find out.

"Why did you apologize earlier?" Lilac asked offhandedly.

She heard Jedrek apologizing to her, but was still curious about the reason until he looked like a sinner, and was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

"Because I hurt you," Jedrek answered in a simple way, though what he felt was nothing close to the word simple.

Lilac bit her lip. "Yes, you hurt me Jedrek, I would be lying lie if I said otherwise."

Jedrek lowered his head. "What should I do to make up for that?"

Lilac shook her head. "What you are feeling right now is because of the mate bond, but once you are over it, you will be fine."
