Chapter 970 - ANNULMENT
"Annul?" Nutdrouk raised his brows incredulously. "Are you kidding me?" he asked in a sharp tone. "I will not go this far just for you to find a random excuse to do that to me!"
Serefina shrugged her shoulders and tilted her head. "Then go with her." She nodded at Lidya.
Knowing that he didn't have any other options, the dwarf grumbled and walked out of the room, kicking the door before roaring in frustration.
"Will he go with me?" Lidya saw the dwarf's figure disappearing behind the door, but they could still hear his groan.
"He will," Serefina replied with certainty. "Do whatever you need to do there and I will give you the next instruction."
This time lidya didn't answer Serefina, she lowered her head and knitted her brows, as if deep in thought.
"Hey, do you hear me?" Serefina flicked her fingers in front of Lidya's face. "We are running out of time, so gather your mind and move."
"Serefina," Lidya called her name with a complicated feeling. "I want to ask one question."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I will answer you if I feel like it," Serefina said indifferently.
She was always like this and Lidya had grown used to it. Every time she would let it slid, but not now, she wanted to know the truth.
"What did you promise him?" Lidya asked, she narrowed her eyes, a gesture she would make if she was very serious with whatever she wanted to know.
Serefina held her gaze, her lips formed into a thin line, indicating that she didn't want to answer that kind of question. "You don't need to know."
And without waiting for Lidya's response, Serefina walked out of the room, but before her figure could disappear, Lidya had grabbed her hand and pulled her back again.
"I don't want that answer, Serefina. I am not going this far just to hear that kind of excuse from you." Lidya glared at her. She had followed her blindly because she knew the struggle that she had gone through for centuries, but she didn't know that there was more into it. Something darker and deeper.
"So, what do you want?" Serefina swatted Lidya's hand that held her back, as she folded her arms. A defensive gesture. historical
"Tell me everything and I will decide whether I will help you with your crazy plan or not." Lidya mimicked her gesture. The two witches were being stubborn and no one wanted to back down at all.
==============
"I will leave you with Ethan and Calleb," Lilac said. She took charge to lead them, since the Donovans were not around and she was still holding the higher status as Jedrek's mate.
This didn't mean she like the role, but she knew more than what they should do.
"But, I don't know how Lilac." Hope's voice was almost like a whisper, especially when she was feeling such high pressure from Ethan and Calleb's expectant eyes.
But, Lilac pulled her into a hug and patted her back, while saying, "you can and you will find a way." After that, she looked at Belinda and Sebastian. "You two follow me."
And before long, Sebastian and Belinda were striding along the corridor, following Lilac. The two of them didn't know where Lilac would bring them, but they still followed her nonetheless, leaving Hope to deal with the other two and figure out what she could do with her current power.
Just like what they already know by now; they were running out of time and if they didn't take good measures to control the situation, nothing would be left of them.
Not to mention Raine, who was not yet awake, and Hope, who was struggling to tap into her power, Lilac also had to make sure that she could reach Jedrek to tell him what she knew.
==============
"Alright," Hope said when Lilac had gone with the others. "I need a moment to think about it."
Hope then sat down on the edge of the bed, while kneading her head. Why did Lilac give this task to her out of the blue? She couldn't think clearly under the pressure.
"Calm down, Hope…" Ethan sat beside her and patted her back. "Take your time, no rush."
However, after he said that, Calleb threw a look at him and Ethan frowned, shook his head slightly, as if saying; you will just make the situation worse if you pressed her even further.
Therefore, Calleb just closed his eyes and leaned his body against the wall. He felt that the time was ticking very slow and everything around him was just very irritating.

D*mn it!
Calleb felt his chest caving in, as they waited for Hope to figure out what she should do.
Five minutes…
Ten minutes…
And when it was over twenty minutes, Calleb couldn't take it any longer. "D*mn it Hope! Just do it what you have done to Kace!"
Hope was startled, but then she became angry. "I don't know! I don't know what I have done to Kace! It just happened!"
"There must be something that you have done to your mate that allowed you to go into his subconsciousness!" Calleb lost it. It was very rare to see him in this kind of state, as he was known to have the most easy going personality.
But then, no one could remember when was the last time they had some leisure time to be going easy on the situation.
"Me and Kace had a deep connection because he is my mate! For you two, it is different! I don't even know where I have to start!" Hope vented out her frustration.
"Then should I mark you like Kace did!?" Calleb was on the verge of taking every risk just to get done with it, but then he realized that he had talked nonsense.
"You are not serious with what you said," Ethan said impassively.
"Sorry," Calleb murmured.
