The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 773 - BAD NEWS

Raphael watched intensely when the healer bandaged Lana's right arm as he held her other hands.

"How is she?" the Beta asked grimly. His eyes still the color of the night sky as he couldn't content his anger upon seeing Lana's pale face. If the silver stabbed her vital part, he would have lost her now for sure.

"I am all right," Lana tried to soothe Raphael's anxiety, but no amount of words that could ease his tense.

"She will be fine after two days of rest," the healer said after she finished tied up the bandage and let Lana laid back down. "Her healing ability will help, but since it is silver, so it will take time. You just have to pay attention not to get the wound wet."

"Thank you," Raphael murmured, yet his eyes didn't leave Lana's face. "I think Serefina will need you in the king's tower."

"Right. I will leave you now," the healer said and cleaned up her things before she left the room while saying; "Just call me if you need something."

"Sure," Raphael replied absentmindedly and heard when the door was being closed. "I will get you some water."

They were in the old tower, inside the room, where Theo was being treated the first time he was found almost died.

The place didn't put concern much to a nursing place like this since all the shifters were having the ability to heal themselves and didn't need the healer's treatment most of the time.

"Here." Raphael come back with a glass of warm water and helped Lana to sit down, so she wouldn't choke.

"They are really traitors," Lana sighed deeply after she finished half of water.

"I shouldn't leave you alone," Raphael said regretfully and put down the glass on the table. He then laid down next to her and careful enough to not touch her wounds while Lana snuggled into his chest. This bed was big enough for the two of them.

"It's okay, you don't know." Lana nuzzled his neck and closed her eyes, tired. "I am glad you are there right in time." She couldn't imagine if Kyle got her before Raphael came.

They just met each other for weeks and blessed with love that they deserved, if something happened, it would be a nightmare for both of them.

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

Serefina went back to Theo's room, where she left Rowan with Theo.

The general was unconscious after Serefina smashed his head against the wall really hard until she could hear his cracking skull the moment he said Lana was in danger. The witch just hoped it wouldn't damage his brain. It would be bothersome if he did.

When Serefina comeback to the room, Rowan was still lying on the ground with blood pooled beneath his head, but the rose and fall from his chest indicated that he was still alive and that was all that matter for now.

Serefina strode across the room and found Theo was struggling to sit down, but the witch pushed him back firmly. "You need to rest," she said. "The healer will be here soon."

The dead body of Kyle had been taken care of and now, perhaps the word about this attack had reached Jedrek. And for Rowan, she would let the lycan to decide what they would do to him.

"Can you talk?" Serefina asked Theo, but he slightly shook his head.

Theo had been trying to talk ever since he woke up, yet he couldn't produce any words. Perhaps, it was because of his wound. He needed to rest a bit longer…

"Hoam!" Calleb yawned. He was very boring, following the two guardian angels chatted away inside the library.

Hope found this place and took Raine here, and because Torak and Kace were not here at the moment, it was Calleb new job to baby sit the two of them.

"You can read the book," Raine giggled when she watched how Calleb scratched his head and wiped away his tears.

"Me and book don't have chemistry at all," Calleb stood up and stretched his body to ease his tense muscle. "Can we go to another place that less boring than this?"

"I don't feel boring here," Hope said cheerfully, flipping every books that she could reach.

"Me too," Raine chimed in only to tease Calleb.

"Ugh! Where is Raphael?" Calleb groaned. The Beta was with him earlier, but he left hastily without saying a word.

At the same time, there was a guard entered the library and approached Calleb, he talked in low voice to him that couldn't be heard by Raine and Hope, but from the changing of Calleb's expression when he heard that, Raine was sure, it was not good news.

"What happened?" Raine walked closer to him.

"Lana is injured," he said. historical

"What?" Hope put down the book hastily and ran over. "What did you say? How could Lana get injured?"

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

"Jedrek, I think we need to go to the east," Lilac approached Jedrek and touched his tense shoulder.

A guard just came with a report from Tordoff and Killian. There was no word in the envelop, but it was a secret message that Tordoff managed to deliver from the eastern region, where the eastern coven of the witches located.

The envelope created red smoke when Jedrek burned it in the fireplace, a sign that what was happening there, was not in their favor.

To put it simply, Tordoff and Killian were in danger.

"I will go after the ceremony," Jedrek said solemnly, but Lilac knew better that was another fa?ade that he put on.

"We will go together," Lilac said calmly, she entwined their fingers.

Jedrek frowned and was about to reject her idea, he had planned to let her ruled this place in his stead, but before he could voice out his protest, another guard had entered the room and gave another bad news to the couple.

"General Kyle has been killed by Raphael," he reported.
