The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 480 - I HAVE GROWN UP!

Hope was quite irritated when in the end Abby stayed with them to hear whatever Leon was going to tell Kace.

Actually, Hope didn't really understand what Leon was saying, but because Kace had told her earlier to not ask any question and he would answer all of her curiosity the moment they were alone, thus Hope kept quiet, though her head was trying to figure out what the topic of this conversation.

"Just like what you thought, that thing is indeed in that place." Leon said firmly as he sipped his coffee.

Now, they were inside a coffee shop, enjoying a cup of coffee while Hope, who didn't like to drink coffee, was eating her croissant with a bottle of mineral water.

"Do you know what exactly owned it?" Kace asked, playing with Hope's hair absentmindedly, as if by doing so, it helped him to think.

At first Hope wondered why Kace and Leon were talking in riddle, but when she raised her head and witnessed the confusion etched on Abby's expression, she realized that the slender girl didn't have any idea what they were saying too, despite her declaration before.

Ha! Eat that girl!

Abby couldn't ask or demand an explanation from Kace or Leon because she had said that she knew what they were going to talk about.

Although Hope was in the same position as Abby, but she could always ask Kace the moment they were going back to the village and for Abby… Hope wasn't sure if Leon would let her know, he didn't look very fond of her.

"The thing that you mentioned before." Leon contemplated. "There is a lot of things that you don't know in that place. Be careful."

Kace sighed and caressed Hope's cheeks, "I will."

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

"I don't understand what you were saying." Hope said the moment she got into the car. After the long conversation, they were finally going back home.

Kace chuckled as he turned on the engine and drove away from the parking lot. "I know you don't."

"So?" Hope raised her eyebrows, waiting eagerly for Kace's explanation. "What is that with 'that thing', 'that place', 'that creature'?"

"Will you stop asking if I said I don't want to explain it to you?" Kace paid parking fees and turned toward the main road.

"No." Hope answered immediately and this earned a soft knock on her head from the lycan.

"Always eager to know more."

"You don't like it?"

"I love that."

Both of them chuckled.

"So?" Hope still didn't let Kace changed the subject.

"I don't know where I have to start the explanation." Kace said in matter of fact. "This things are related to one another."

Hope bit her lips, unsure if she had to say it or not, but then she thought there was no harm to try. "Why don't you tell me from the very beginning?"

Kace tilted his head as he stared at Hope. "The very beginning?"

"From how all of you guys could adopt me." Hope said it firmly. "You said it before, years ago that you will tell me everything when I am older. Now, I think is the right time."

The conversation in the coffee shop with Leon was only one from dozens things that Hope wanted to know and needed Kace's explanation.

Hope didn't forget about that. Maybe, in the surface she looked like any normal careless teenager and was ignorance about her surroundings and the things that she was able to see when another people couldn't see them.

She wasn't that ignorance, because she knew there was a secret behind all of this.

Why she lived with Lycan, werewolf and witch?

Why she didn't know her real parents and what happened to them?

Why she was able to see those creatures while the other could see nothing?

There were so many mysteries that needed answers and Hope had been waiting the right moment to have this conversation with Kace.

Unexpectedly, Kace pulled over to the dark side of the road before he turned his attention toward Hope. "Do you really want to know about everything?"

Hope held his gaze calmly as she nodded. "Yes. You promised me to explain everything to me when I am older."

Kace narrowed his eyes, "This will be a though topic to talk about."

"I am aware." Hope nodded. Of course she knew, there was a high chance that the explanation would take a bad turn and she discovered something that would hurt her.

But, Serefina always said; knowing the truth is always better.

Since Hope was growing up under the witch's influences, though there was a time when she didn't agree with her, but she always held some degree of respect toward the witch.

Hope had asked Serefina about the questions that roamed around her head, but the witch would always have this weird expression.

Living with Serefina for her whole life, Hope could say that Serefina didn't really like to hold back information that was not necessary to conceal.

And the fact that Serefina couldn't tell Hope, was not because she didn't want to, but there was someone who told her to not do that.

Hope had thought about this and the only answer was because of Kace. Because she was his mate and she was his responsibility.

It sounded weird, but that was the only explanation of Serefina's reaction every time Hope threw the questions.

In spite of the fact that Serefina and Kace would often fight every time they saw each other, but they respected the other person's decision too.

Hence, since Kace wanted Serefina to not reveal this piece of information yet, the witch wouldn't say anything.

"You have changed… you become slightly bold now." Kace expression softened when he witnessed this side of his mate.

"No," Hope shook her head, her eyes glowed with purity, but there was a resolution in them. "I didn't change. You are not around very often when I was child, then you had been missing for three years, and when you were not with me, I have grown up."
