The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 425 - SIX YEARS OLD (2)

Of course not.

Kace would never forget about what the cruel reason for him and his other brothers were blessed with mate.

For the reason why their curse was lifted.

Actually this love was a bless and curse at the same time.

Kace just couldn't wrap it in his head yet and chose to ignore that fact.

"I know." Kace's answer was a low, deep, grumbled as he averted his gaze toward the city landscape before his eyes, let the sunlight bathed his body.

And then there was sounds of light footsteps that Kace was way too familiar and before her small figure appeared, her scent had managed to appease the raging anxiety that started to brew inside him.

"Wolf!" Hope called out for Kace as she hugged his legs. "Let's go to school!" she grinned at him and showed her tinny teeth.

It was almost immediately when Kace grinned back at her and picked her up from the ground that made the little girl squalled in delight as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Let's go to your school, my little munchkin." Kace nuzzled her cheeks.

"You spoil her too much." Serefina squinted her eyes. Didn't really like the way Kace treated Hope. She didn't want the little girl to grow up into a weak woman, who would grin and act foolishly.

"She is my mate, of course I will spoil her." Kace shot her a look that said; what is wrong with you?

Serefina could only scoff and follow the two of them inside again.

Kace was helping Hope with her shoelaces when Serefina was enjoying her morning coffee when he asked.

"I don't see Lana, where is she?" Kace didn't lift his head from Hope's shoes, but he just realized that Lana was not around.

When he entered the apartment, he could still smell her scent, but now there was not, as if she had gone since Kace stepped inside.

"She is running my errand." Serefina answered lightly, sipping on her coffee. She had warned the girl to stay as far as she could from Kace and apparently Lana took that advice seriously.

Well, that was for her own good though.

"Hm…" Kace didn't pursue the matter further as he finished the knot on Hope's shoes and carried her small bag on his shoulder before he helped his little girl to stand up. "I will drive her to school, but I don't think I can manage to pick her up."

"Lana or I will pick her up." Serefina knew what Kace wanted to say.

"Make sure you are not late." There was a warning tone that laced in Kace's grumble. He didn't trust the witch in this matter, knowing her personality, she could appear hours after the school ended and Hope needed to wait for that long time.

"I know, I know…" Serefina waved her hand nonchalantly, without even looking at Kace's direction.

However, she felt someone was tugging her sleeves and when she turned her attention, Hope was standing there, asking Serefina to bend down a little bit with her action.

"What do you want?" Serefina frowned, yet she still bent her body slightly so her ears could reach the little girl's mouth.

And then, a soft kiss was pressed against the witch cheek as a childish voice rang in her ears. "I am going to go to school, bye Serefina."

Kace, who watched the entire event, was frowning in displease by his mate action. "You don't have to kiss her, you know."

Serefina's face didn't show any reaction or she said something to Hope for her kiss, only when the sound of the door was being closed, she touched her cheek absentmindedly, which had been kissed by the little girl.

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

"Are you going to be alright if I leave you alone here, baby?" Kace stared at the building that filled with children around Hope's age, they were also accompanied by their parents, some with only their mother or father and there were more with both of them.

"Yes." Hope was practically jumping with excitement when she watched there were a lot of children there.

Kace could understand it. She had been kept from the outside world for the first six years of her age and now to have other friends, except the boring Lana and Serefina, must feel great to her.

"There is something that I can help?" there was a sweet sound that greeted them from Kace's left side as the owner of that voice appeared in his line of sight. "I am Ariel, the teacher here and I think she will be my new student."

Kace smiled back at the teacher. She was a young woman in her twenties and has blue light eyes that matched with her short blonde hair, she has dimple on her left cheekbone and was smiling very sweetly at him.

Kace didn't like her, yet he smiled nonetheless.

The kind of smile that could make the young woman fluttered and lowered her gaze to look for the curios little girl.

Actually, she was attracted by Kace's figure. With that face and body, she was not surprised if he said he was a model.

The nonchalant air around him only added his charm, besides his blue ocean eyes and his black long hair that reached his shoulder that he tied behind his nape.

Kace was too lazy to cut his hair and what else, he liked this style as his baby girl would play with his hair and sometime braided it, that was one of the reasons why he didn't cut it short.

"Hai, what is your name?" Ariel dropped to her knees so she was in the same eyes level with Hope.

"Hope." Hope said curtly, for some reason she didn't like this overly sweet teacher.

"Nice name." Ariel clapped her hands and was about to tousle her head, but the little girl avoid it.

"Don't touch my hair, wolf had braided it for me." Her frown deepened as she hid behind Kace's legs.
