Chapter 577 - UNDER ATTACK (2)

Kace\'s face turned unsightly as his eyes turned dark, Hope, who caught the sight of his expression shuddered involuntarily.

Before, it was rare to see Kace in this gloomy mood. Until recently, he had been in this kind of mood again and again, as if everything around him was nothing but a complete shambles.

Kace and Hope walked in front of Lana and the siblings, while the lycan tried to make a way back to the village square, which was also in the same chaotic situation.

When they walked back, not only they had to squeeze themselves with the villagers, but apparently the Centaurs and the hunters worked together to rush towards the gate to provide some help in order to keep the demon wolves out of their stronghold.

It seemed because of the urgency of the situation they put all their egos aside, and worked together for once. Kace and the rest didn\'t know what had happened when they left Chiron before he could carry out his plan.

But, one thing for sure was; it was not a good thing to be caught in the middle of their business.

After a lot of effort, Kace managed to see Chiron, he was standing tall in the podium, surrounded by some hunters that still stayed there when the rest of them had left to the gates.

"You are back," Chiron said, visibly relieved.

However, Kace didn\'t take that welcome nicely as he grunted at the chief of the centaurs. "IS THIS YOUR PLAN?" Kace seethed, he was too angry to be civil with Chiron.

It was also him, who saw it first when he climbed the stairs to the podium for the second time this evening.

Kace watched the supposed to be the priestess, was lying on the tiles of the podium with charred burns all over her skin, and her body had turned into something that was too horrible to see.

Swiftly, before Hope could see it, he hugged her and pressed her head against his chest, "Don\'t look," Kace grumbled in warning when Hope was trying to free herself.

"What? What is it?" Hope was so curious, especially when she heard Lana\'s breath hitch and the siblings let out a loud gasp upon seeing something that Kace prevented her from seeing.

"Don\'t look." This time, Kace\'s voice was sterner as he hugged Hope\'s body to prevent her from moving around recklessly. Hope couldn\'t help it, because she was a curious little creature. "Can\'t you cover her body with something!?" Kace shouted at Chiron.

For the centaurs, the dreadful scene was not something that could make them feel uncomfortable, but Chiron did what Kace asked him, he nodded to the centaur next to him.

The centaur took a cloak from the hunter and covered the unsightly dead body of \'the priestess\', while Leroy\'s body had been carried by the other hunter, they didn\'t know whether he was alive or not. In this kind of situation, the most important thing in their mind right now was how to survive.

"Of course this is not my plan," Chiron said as his eyes fixed on the gates, from where they were standing they could hear a loud growl and snarl, the street almost empty when most of the villagers had sought safety inside their houses.

Only the hunters and a few men were there to block the gates and prepared their weapons, just in case the situation became worse.

"Is that her body?" Kace released Hope from him when he watched the body had been covered.

Hope rubbed her neck, Kace held her too tightly, because she kept trying to free herself. But when she turned around to check what kind of scene that Kace hid from her, she could see nothing, because it was already covered by a brown cloak.

"The impostor, yes." Chiron nodded. "I think the demon had called them…" he mumbled and shifted his eyes to Hope. "And there is something else they want."

"What do you mean?" Subconsciously, Kace pulled Hope behind his back as his black eyes turned even darker.

Out of instinct, Lana stepped forward and stood beside Hope.

"You know what I mean," Chiron stared at Kace meaningfully. "You know what she is. She shouldn\'t be here in the first place. I don\'t know how she could survive and venture until this part of the realm."

There was tacit understanding between Chiron and Kace as Lana became anxious. This whole situation was simply beyond unpredictable. She thought they would finish their journey within a week, but seeing the situation now, she wasn\'t sure anymore when will all of this over.

Not only they had not yet meet the priestess, because apparently there was an impostor who had been pretending to be her, but now the situation became more complicated than what they imagined. Nothing could ever be predicted when it comes to this realm.

"The cloak," Ethan suddenly said, "The witch, Lidya, she gave her a cloak before we entered this realm and she warned her a few times to not take off that cloak."

Chiron stared at Hope once again before he looked at Kace. "That must be it."

"Where is that cloak?" Kace asked Hope, but his mate shook her head.

"I don\'t remember, I took it off \'that night\'," Hope said carefully. When she watched how Kace became angry, she hastily added. "Sorry…"

However, Kace shook his head as he tousled her hair like usual. "No, little one, I am not mad at you." He was mad to himself.

"Let her be with my people to the hiding place," Chiron said as he tensed.

At the same time, they could hear a loud outbreak as the gates collapsed.
