The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 599 - THANK YOU

"Speak," Kace spoke rigidly as he adjusted Bree's position in his arms. "What do you want?"

That thought had never crossed Hope's mind. She was not aware of it until now, that the centaurs had a hidden agenda as they helped them. But, what was it?

Hope crept closer towards Kace as she waited for the chief of the centaurs' answer.

"There is no need to be so tense, this is just a simple request and I hope you will consider it," Chiron spoke solemnly like always.

Kace didn't give any reaction to that, yet his austere eyes prodded the centaur to explain further of what he meant with his words.

Chiron took a step closer and voiced out his request. "I wish to go back to our land," he emphasized. "Our hometown, the original place where my kind should belong."

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

The next day after the night Chiron said about his true intention for helping them, about how he requested to be able to go back to their original habitat along with his kind. Kace's condition dropped again, thus the trip to Mount Uzu should be postponed.

Carina said that this was one of the reasons why Kace's beast took over his consciousness.Because his human side was too weak to be able to bear the brunt, the pain.

Every shapeshifter normally had this kind of trait, their beast would take over when their human side was not in shape, or if there was a possible danger that their other side couldn't manage to handle.

And since Kace's human side was connected with Lana's soul because of the vow that they had made, Lana's condition was no different.

Her consciousness had been in and out constantly.

Only on the third day, Kace was a little bit fine for their long journey and the night before their trip. Kace went out of his tent to look for Hope only to meet with Chiron.

"Should we take a walk for a while?" he offered politely.

"No," Kace turned down his offer immediately.

"I think you need some fresh air after being trapped inside the hut for days," Chiron said, still in the same tone.

Kace knitted his brows, "I don't need fresh air, I need my mate," He said bluntly as he started to walk again, but Chiron followed beside him.

"What a coincidence. Hope is with Bree, and I wanted to see the little girl too," Chiron talked lightly as they walked side by side in complete awkward silence.

Apparently the girls and the twins were in the same open space place where Bree picked up flowers.

Yesterday, finally Hope took the little girl to her parents' grave together with the siblings and five centaurs to ensure their safety. Of course, Kace didn't know about that because he was still recovering his condition, otherwise, he wouldn't stay and insist to come as well. Not to pay a visit to the death, but to feed his protective trait, scared of leaving his mate out of his sight. historical

"About my request," Chiron said when they were halfway to the clearing, but from that distance they could still hear Bree's chirping voice, and laughter from the other three teenagers.

"I have told you that I can't promise you anything, I am not the sovereign of that realm." Kace glanced at Chiron with irritation. "You ask the wrong person."

Kace had told him about this that night. The fact that he couldn't possibly bring the whole race of centaurs back to their realm, definitely the reason behind it was because Jedrek was the king there. And with that, only Jedrek, the one who could decide on this matter.

Another reason was because Kace didn't have a plan to go back to that place.

Going back to the kingdom, and asking Jedrek to allow the centaurs to return? What a ridiculous plan… whether Jedrek would laugh at him, or he would slaughter these poor centaurs the moment he knew that they were still alive.Neither of which was a pleasant scenario for Kace, and he was not tempted to even try.

"I know," Chiron nodded. "But, knowing you will try, makes me slightly feel better."

"I will not try, so don't put your hope too high," Kace replied coldly.

Chiron sighed deeply as he stared to the sky, and continued to try to engage a conversation with the lycan beside him. "Thank you," he said.

"For what? I don't even say 'yes' to your request." Although Kace answered him impolitely, the fact that he didn't ignore Chiron like before was something that should be counted.

"No, not for that," Chiron shook his head, the sound of his hooves against the damp ground echoed in the forest. "I thanked you for what you had done to my mate."

"What?" Kace knitted his brows, "You thanked me because I killed her?"

"No, I thanked you because you had given my mate and my son what they needed during the time you confined us." Chiron remembered it very clear what Kace had done at that time.

It was him, who gave food to his mate and their newborn son.When his son was crying on top of his lungs, asking to be fed, regardless of the situation or the strange look from the other lycanthropes and werewolves, Kace treated them very well.

The kindness that he showed was highly unlikely coming from a creature like him.

"Don't flatter yourself," Kace scoffed. "That's my human side, who had done that."

Chiron chuckled lightly.

"What? Is there something funny to you?" Kace glowered, he didn't like it when he heard that sound.

"You always said every kindness that you did was your human side's wrongdoing, and your human side will also say the same thing when he loses control over his animal instinct. However the truth is that you are one person. It is just you, who thinks that the either side of you, is another personality."

"I don't understand what you are talking about," Kace grumbled as he walked faster when he watched his mate was wearing a crown made of flowers.

It was Bree who saw him first, and with her short legs, she ran towards Kace, while hugging a bunch of flowers in her arms.

"For you!" Bree beamed at him.
