The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 592 - HOLD BACK

Hope turned her head towards Kace, and watched how the big bad lycan tried to sit down with a groan. "My… lovely?" the corner of Hope's lips twitched with that endearing word. She had heard this before.

Kace supported his head on his palm while he was sitting crossed legs, and tilted his head at Hope.With his sleepy eyes, he stared at her. "Yes, don't you like it lovely? Lovely Hope, my lovely Hope," he mused with his own words.

"Oh, not this again," Hope groaned. She really wanted to face palm herself for this situation.

She thought after that night, the beast would stop and Kace would come back.But, after hearing the first sentence that came out from his mouth the moment he opened his eyes, Hope was a hundred percent sure that this was not the case she thought would turn out.

"Why? Don't you like to see me?" Kace frowned upon seeing Hope's reaction. "Aren't you glad? I thought you will be happy, and cry a river for me as you throw yourself and hug me tightly, the second you see me wake up, isn't that what you want?"

Hope rolled her eyes exasperatedly. "You need to get over yourself."

"Why?" Kace knitted his brows, apparently, his decision to sit down all of a sudden made him a little bit dizzy. After all, it had been two days since he was out, thus his abrupt move didn't help his case.

"Happy, yes. Cry a river and throw myself to you, no." Hope glared at Kace, pouting her lips. How could this beast be so daring to come up with that idea?

Well, normal Kace was also a bold person with such a tease personality, but this beast took it to another level. While Kace was a reserved man, even though he would tease her in every given opportunity, but his beast was…

"Don't you want to give me a kiss?" he asked sullenly.

He really had a serious case of split personality. Other people would think that he must be having two personalities that contradicting each other, living in one body. Which, at some point was not wrong, since his beast would see Kace's magnanimous human side, was a form of weakness.

"No," Hope replied readily.

"What a cold answer," he grumbled. "I remembered how bold you were when you approached me that night, weren't you afraid that I was going to tear you apart?"

Hope answered him without hesitation. "No, you will not do that." Then she added. "I will not be here if you do that."

"Right," Kace nodded. "You are right." and then he leaned over, and rested his throbbing forehead on her shoulder. "I will never have a shred of courage to hurt you even when I lost myself."

Hope already knew that. She had proved it herself.

"Oh, you smell so nice…" Kace dr.a.p.ed his strong arms around Hope's waist as he pulled her closer so his mate could lean back on his broad chest.

Hope was alarmed, yet the warm breath of him that brushed her nape made her body shivered involuntarily. "Kace…" her voice came out raspy.

"I really want to mark you." His voice filled with longing as he grazed his teeth on Hope's neck.

"No." Hope's eyes opened wide. She was still reeling by the thought Kace would dig his canines beneath her skin, and tore her flesh.Moreover, Kace said it himself that the process could be dangerous if they weren't careful enough on handling it.

Feeling Hope's body tensed, the beast chuckled lightly. "Don't worry I will not do it without your consent." He kissed her hair. "But I can't promise you I won't, if you keep on seducing me."

"Why on earth do you think I seduced you?!" Hope's face burned red. This beast was really annoying! What made him get the idea that Hope was seducing him?! When they were just talking?

Hope felt there was a rumble on his chest when he laughed heartily. Well, at least there was one of them, which was in a good mood.

"I am hungry, let's get something to eat. I smell something nice out there, the centaurs must be roasting a rabbit right now." Kace raised his nose and sniffed the air.

Hope shrugged her shoulders and looked at the wooden door of the hut, "They will come to deliver food here."

Although Hope was saying that casually, Kace picked something out with her tone. "What happened?"

"Well, I can't get out of this hut, since my scent will invite another demon, beast, or troll again," Hope exaggerated the way she talked. She almost died of boredness for being inside this hut.

In order to mask her scent, the centaur put her in the middle of their den, and surrounded this hut.So that her scent would get mixed up with theirs. Not only that, they would often roast rabbit or chicken to add more smelly scent around the hut.

Hope could say that method was effective, because these past two days had been uneventful. No giant troll, no demon wolves. Great. However, Hope was really bored. She felt like she was a prisoner.

The centaurs said that they would try to find the cloak that Lydia had given to her, but it was unsure when they could find it.

From the window, she could see the sun had just risen, and it left a beautiful hue of orange color on the horizon.

"Don't worry, if they come, I will fight them again," Kace said with confidence.

"No!" Hope objected. "No more fight, you need to heal your wound!" she said sternly.

Hope had seen the wound on Kace's back, as it became uglier than before. Carina said it was because he had exerted himself.

"You are no fun at all," Kace grumbled, burying his nose on her shoulder sullenly.

Right at that time, Ian came inside the hut with a plate of breakfast for Hope.His cheerful voice travelled into the hut before they could see them.

"Hope! We roasted a rabbit for you!" He opened the door of the hut, and shock was written all over his face. "It's still early, can you guys hold back a little?!"
