The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 580 - UNDER ATTACK (5)

Hunters' bodies lifted into the air, massive talons digging bloodily into shoulders and backs as those demons killed a lot of hunters before they could be killed.

More screams and shouts. Tearing sounds and sickening noises. Crunching, when the centaurs' bodies were thrown and bit.

Fear and blood could be smelled in the air. Not from the demon wolves because they didn't bleed, but from the other party, who tried to defend their territory against this attack.

On the other side, a black demon wolf was about to swing his huge talons onto the centaur chief when a massive white fur beast leapt into view, its large mass was tackling the demon wolf to the ground.

However, there was something really wrong with his movement as all of a sudden, the white beast felt a searing pain on its back, and for a moment lost his concentration over the pain.

It was only a second that was needed for the demon wolf to turn the table and dig his huge talons on his neck instead. Then, angry red spattering across the ground. Blood.

With an ear-splitting roar, the white beast raised his sharp claws against the demon wolf and put the fight to an end.

Yet, before the white beast could scramble on his feet, there was a second attack from another demon wolf.

Fortunately, out of instinct, the white beast stepped aside just in time before he got another serious injury. Despite the pain on his back and the almost healed injury on his neck, the white beast still held his bearing as the two creatures were baring their teeth and glaring murderously.

The demon wolf lunged forward again, moving to bite the white lycan on his neck. However, before he could do that the white lycan had barreled over him and managed to bring him down, his claws raking across the demon wolf's face and making him howl in agony then disappeared into a black smoke.

The battle of the lycan, the centaurs, and the hunters against the demonic beast took a long time before the horde of the demon wolves stopped coming and they could catch their breath.

Apparently, among those creatures, there were two feline shifters among them. It was rare to see feline shifters these days after the massacre that the Donovans had done to the other shifters' mates.

By then, the village around them would need a serious reconstruction, because there was not a single house that was not damaged.

The only good thing that came out from fighting those demon wolves was, because they didn't leave piles of carcasses when those demons died as their bodies would turn into smoke and disappear with the wind, yet the destruction and casualty were surreal.

There were dozens of hunters that breathed their last and more, who got badly injured, not only that, there were three centaurs cease to exist in this battle.

Chiron was standing tall while looking down at his people. His expression was stoic, but the sorrow in his eyes was visible to see. Carina was beside him to share their pain.

Meanwhile the others looked frustrated when they had to hold another funeral, a huge funeral than the one they had just hours ago.

This chilly night felt more mournful when soft groans filled the air, as the cold wind was blowing and made the trees rustled like living things. The light from the moon above them was covered by dark clouds, thus they had to light the torches.

Even when they won this battle, no one shared laughs or even a small smile.

The white beast shifted back quickly, ignoring the pain of his bones snapping and his muscles expanding into place. Despite the fact this was the most painful shifting back that Kace had ever experienced, maybe because of his condition that led to this pain, but there was no time to focus on pain.

Kace walked towards Chiron as his wounds started to heal, except the wounds on his back that kept throbbing.

"I am sorry for your loss," Kace said when he stood beside the centaur.

Chiron glanced at him and nodded solemnly. "Their time has come to end."

Kace wanted to say more, even though he knew it wouldn't change the fact that the race of centaurs had decreased in number once again, but he caught a figure that was not supposed to be there.

Lana.

She just shifted back into her human form, away from him, but Kace was able to recognize her right away.

Blood rushed to his head when his body moved on its own toward the female werewolf, who was clutching her injured hand.

"What are you doing here!?" Kace snapped harshly while grabbing her hand and turned her body. "You are not supposed to be here!"

Lana was startled when she was being caught. She was fighting far enough for Kace to realize that she was there, but not too far until she couldn't see him.

"Where is Hope!?" Kace was furious because Lana didn't answer his question immediately. This female werewolf shouldn't be here.

"Don't worry, she is fine, the centaurs took her to the safety. Ian and Ethan are with her." Lana tried to answer him calmly, but her heart was beating as fast as she realized how much Kace was angry at her. "We can ask Chiron where they take them."

"You don't even know where they are!" Kace spoke through his gritted teeth.

Kace's eyes flickered back to the color of red, before they returned to its black color. Once again,Kace was fighting the beast in him. It was unsure, until when he would be like this. It seemed, there would be another problem that Kace had to face after he got his wound treated, if he kept doing so.

Without words, Kace turned around to approach Chiron with Lana following behind him.

Lana had known Kace long enough to understand that it was best to not interrupt him when he looked like that.
