The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 439 - THIRTEEN YEARS OLD (3)

That question rang in Hope's ears and mind until they reached Oriole city.

Hope had known him for as long as she could remember. When she started to remember thing, he had been there with his smile and easy going personality.

But, what is he for her? Hope knew that her family is not normal. Hell, she is not normal too. Sometimes she would see something that other couldn't see it.

Though she wasn't afraid because she had seen Kace turned into his beautiful white wolf since her tender age, or Lana who would turn into her brown one and Serefina, despite she couldn't turn into anything, but Hope one thousands percent sure, she was a witch.

That's her family and Hope didn't mind it.

Actually, she was quite thrill she has different family than other, but the way they tried to restrain her freedom was something that Hope found it irritating.

Most of the time, Hope would space out and didn't join in the conversation, though Aidan tried to ask a few question that she turned it down with only 'yes', 'right' and 'absolutely', afterward the man gave up and talked to Rena instead.

Hope felt bad for her sour mood, but she just didn't feel comfortable anymore. They were talking in innuendo and occasionally would hint something in different way.

In the end, Hope chose to turn on her phone and sent a message for Kace, she knew Lana would talk to him once she found out that she was missing.

Hope was too afraid to hear Kace's outburst if she called him directly, because no matter how much Kace would tolerate her, the moment he was angry, no one would want to be the receiving end of it.

After that, Hope followed them to get out of the car and bought two bottle of mineral water to moisten her dry throat and Rena, that girl chose to stay inside the car.

"Have you tried this?" Aidan's voice rang from behind Hope as his stretching arm passed her shoulder to take a bottle of soda from the higher place.

Hope flinched didn't like this proximity at all. She side step and murmured. "No." before she left him to pay her own drink to the cashier. historical

But, as she walked she could feel that Aidan followed closely behind her.

"Let me." Aidan said as he put down his own drink and paid for their drinks. Hope didn't mind it, as she didn't want to make a fuss over a little bit money. "I see you not comfortable with our journey here."

Once again Aidan was trying to strike a conversation with this quiet girl. With her fair skin that contradicted her long black hair and eyes, Hope looked astounding and very beautiful for the girl in her age.

Of course, she would grow up to be more beautiful in a few years later. Aidan wouldn't miss this opportunity.

"I just think what kind of punishment that I will receive once I reached home." Hope shrugged, trying to keep the conversation as short as she could without asking in return.

Aidan chuckled when he heard Hope's answer and ran his fingers through his hair. "Don't worry, they will not kill you."

Seeing the smile on Aidan's face, Hope took that as a joke and gave him a half hearted smile. Well, they definitely wouldn't kill her, but they would make sure the days after this was something that Hope didn't look forward.

"Where is Alyssa?" Hope and Aidan were the first to reach their car and there was only Rena there. She didn't mention the missing Sebastian and Gary, as she didn't care about them.

Rena shrugged, her expression turned sullen when she watched Aidan followed closely behind Hope. "Alyssa went with Sebastian." She answered curtly.

"How about Gary?" Aidan leaned his tall body against their car while Rena was staring at the two of them from the car window.

"Toilet." Rena replied as she received a bottle of mineral water from Hope.

"Where are we going?" Hope asked again, the last message that she sent to Kace only informed him that she was in the Oriole city but didn't mention her exact location as she also clueless where they were going to.

"To Sebastian's home." Aidan finished his drink and tossed the empty can toward the nearby trash bin.

"What are we doing there?" Hope found herself was frowning while the tone of her voice was higher that she intended, yet this time, she didn't bother to hide her disagreement. "You said we will go back before late night?"

If they were going to spend time in someone house, they would be too late to go back to their city as it took another three hours before they reached there.

Hope threw an accusation look to Rena, which the later return her gaze sheepishly. "Well, if you return late at night or tomorrow morning, it will not make any different with the punishment that you will receive, right?" she tried to justify herself.

"What?" Hope was squinted her eyes at her. This was how her friend thought about her getting punishment? They took it lightly and disregard her opinion. "You didn't say anything about it!"

Rena grimaced upon hearing the harsh tone in Hope's voice. "Hope, why don't you just enjoy it? It is very rare for you to find this opportunity. You always complain about how they took it from you."

Yes, Hope wanted to rebel a little from those people, but when she was in this situation, she felt stupid.

"I don't believe it!" Hope groaned in disbelieve as she walked away to find some space to calm herself.

She could hear Rena was calling her, but it was only Aidan who actually ran after her, maybe he told Rena to stay. Hope was too furious to find out.

"Don't be upset." Aidan managed to catch up with her.

But, when Hope felt Aidan's arm dr.a.p.ed on her shoulder she shoved him away and glared at him. "Don't touch me!"
