The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 527 - WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!?

"What I want to say to you is, that you need a human to ask for permission from the priestess to enter the land." said Christal as the knock on the door interrupted her.

"What do you mean with that?" Kace tried to ignore the knock on the door, he was too absorbed and focused to find out what this candlemaiden meant with they couldn't meet the priestess without a human? Why things seemed to get out of hands and turn more and more difficult for him now?

"Like I told you before, the place where the priestess lives is a sacred land. Except human with no bad intention, while other creatures need permission from the priestess herself to enter that land." Christal glanced at the door, which was being knocked.

"Didn't you say before that place is an asylum for weak creatures? Do you mean that all weak creatures are human?" Kace couldn't comprehend this logic. "This makes no sense," he hissed while looking puzzled.

"No. You misunderstood what I've said." Christal shook her head. "But, as shapeshifter, you are absolutely, undeniably, has a high spirit energy. That is the thing that will hold you back. That land is a spiritual place, built with pure spell, which is different magic than those possessed by witches."

The knock on the door, now turned into banging, suggesting that whoever the person at the door, was eager to come in.

"But, maybe you can enter that place since your spirit is vulnerably weak now." Christal contemplated her own words for a while.

The banging on the door was getting louder.

"Are you expecting a guest?" Kace felt irritated by the sound.

"No, I don't." Christal shook her head. Despite what she said, she didn't look surprised to find someone was looking for her in the middle of the night.

Kace and Lana glanced at the door with knitted brows.

"But, why don't you open it? Maybe these guests will help you." Christal added.

Kace and Lana didn't miss the plural words used by the candlemaiden. How didshe know how many people were out there?

"I'll open the door," Lana murmured, she was about to approach the door when Kace held her back.

"No. Let me," he said while pulling Lana away from the door. If these guests were some hostile creatures, at least, Kace was stronger than Lana, though the beast inside of him was in weak state.

The door was being knocked from someone outside, that person apparently had lost their temper as the banging sound was increased.

However, upon a closer distance, Kace recognized the scent of this visitor—

No way! What they are doing here?!

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

"Maybe there is no one inside this shop." Ethan turned to look at Lidya. He had been knocking the door for some time, but no answer from inside. He couldn't hear anything.

"Or, maybe they are sleeping," Hope chimed in. She tightened the cloak around her body, had mixed feelings about this gloomy surroundings. If it was not for the flames that Lidya had conjured, this street would be dark and frightening, and for Hope would have rushed to the door and forcedly kicked it open.

Well, she was not sure if she could do that…

Moreover, Lidya had said there was something in the dark that had been tailing them, although she didn't explain what it was, but Hope didn't really want to find out what kind of creatures they were. She was sure it wasn't something she'd be thrilled to find out about.

"No, they're not," Lidya replied confidently.

"Are you sure this is the place where we can find them? They had gone for almost a week and us…" Hope tried to count the time that had passed of their journey. "Four? Five hours? There is a long gap between us and them."

"Like I told you before," Lidya glanced at the door again and Ethan was still trying to get attention from whoever inside by knocking it harder. "If we can't find Kace and Lana here, we will ask the person inside to tell us where they are going."

Just like Serefina's instruction, they definitely stopped by here first, aside from Kace's issues, there was something that Serefina had to return.

"Besides," Lidya added. "There are three ways to come into this realm. What we took is the easiest way because you came with a witch like me, and since the other one is not possible, even for us to take, they must've taken the last, and took shelter here."

"Is that the hardest way?" Hope frowned, the thought of Kace and Lana had gone through such strugglesmade her feele unease.

"If you want to say so," Lidya replied. "But, that is the safest way for shapeshifters to avoid the unnecessary clash with witches and vampires."

"They don't open the door." Said Ethan as he kicked the door harshly. Annoyed.

Hope really wanted to go inside and find out whether Kace was there or not, she became impatient.

However, before Hope could walk forward and kick the door, Ian had done that. He banged his fist against the wooden door with all of his might.

Hope was surprised the door was still standing and didn't collapse under Ian's strength.

Ian kept banging and kicking the door for some time until they could hear a weak rustling sound from the other side of the door before it threw opened.

"You!?"

The familiar voice and the figure that Hope had been missing for more than two weeks now, standing tall in front of her, framed with the dim light from the room inside.

Ian's shock expression shifted into a big wolfish grin. "Hi!" he raised his hands awkwardly.

"What are you doing here??!" Kace's bafflement was overlapped with another sight that was caught by his eyes.

He didn't say anything, but strode in large steps, approaching Hope as he pulled her into his big-bear hug.

Kace buried his nose on the curve of her shoulder. The spark erupted, dancing on their skins and he could feel his beast hummed in satisfied

However, there was something odd that Kace realized. The spark was there, but he couldn't smell her scent.

Abruptly, Kace let go of her and put her within his arm-length. His brows knitted while his ocean blue eyes stared at the girl in front of him.
