The Love of a Lycan

There was nothing more information that Torak could get now, ignoring the things that he had already known.

The witch, the vampires and the devils were in the same boat and they had his mate's blood. The last part was the thing that Torak concerned about the most.

What would they do with Raine's blood? He saw that book when he went to the library to rescue her, but he didn't think much about it except to get his mate out of there as soon as possible, safe and sound.

And now, since the book with Raine's blood on it was brought up, he was sure the whole debacle that had occurred inside the Library was planned beforehand.

The reason for the shadow guard to give the grimoire to Raine, was definitely something that Lucifer had planned beforehand. The devil deceived the shadow guard to deceive Raine as well.

This thought made Torak feel restless. He didn't like the fact that his enemy held something that had the potential to harm his mate.

"Bring him with us." Torak glanced at Kyle's unmoving body and walked out of the building through the hole that the beasts had created earlier.

"What is your order, Alpha?" Lyrus asked politely to Torak as he walked beside him.

"Secure the seven packs under those Alphas. I will give my final judgment after I'm done dealing  with Alpha Ryan." Torak spoke icily.

"Will do, Alpha." Lyrus bowed his head deeply.

"Lyrus." Torak called him after Lyrus had relayed their Alpha's orders through mind- link. "I want you to meet someone."

Lyrus's eyebrows slightly creased. "Someone?"

"Your Luna." Torak said while opening the car door, where his beautiful mate had been waiting for him.

The moment Torak opened the car door, Raine threw herself on to Torak as she buried her face in his chest, sighing in relief because Torak had came back unharmed.

Raine had been nagging at Jack to go check inside the building, but Jack knew better to not let his little Luna place a step into that place at that time.

"Why did it took you so long?" Raine whined.

"There were a lot of things to deal." Torak caressed Raine's hair. "My love, I want you to meet someone." Torak stepped aside to reveal Lyrus behind him.

Out of instinct, Raine crept closer toward Torak. Of course she remembered him! How could she forget? Maybe for Lyrus the thing that happened was centuries ago, but for Raine, it was merely months.

With the Alpha's order, the rest of the Lycanthropes around the three of them dispersed, including Calleb and Jack.

"Do you remember her?" Torak asked, he could feel his mate's distress at this sudden confrontation, but Torak needed to know what exactly had happened centuries ago.

Lyrus frowned, his eyebrows furrowed as he tried hard to remember where he had met Raine and it was understandable if he couldn't recall a thing about Raine. After all, they had just met for a few minutes and it happened a really long time ago.

"Is she your mate, Alpha?" Lyrus shifted his gaze toward Torak as he could feel Raine's fear toward him. But, why?

"Yes," Torak caressed Raine's hair lovingly. "She is your Luna." He confirmed his query.

Lyrus was surprised.

Actually he had heard about Torak Donovan finding his own mate, at first he thought his mate was a chosen female Lycan.

Jenedieth was the best candidate for him actually.

However, not long after that, Jenedieth had been banned from the pack, due to her attempt to hurt Torak's mate, that meant his Alpha's mate wasn't Jenedieth.

Along with that news, came another shocking news adding to his confusion when Torak killed Jenedieth's father and appointed his Beta as the Alpha of the Blue Moon pack.

Torak's way of conduct showed how he valued his mate, just like one treats his destined mate, yet how could that happen?

The Donovans were cursed by the Moon Goddess herself to live the rest of their life without a mate.

Regardless of the rumors and the news that Lyrus heard, the scene before his eyes and how protective Torak toward this little girl and the sparkle in those blue eyes, said otherwise.

This girl was indeed their Luna. The destined mate of Torak Donovan.

But, how could that be?

"Do you remember her?" Torak asked Lyrus, snapping him out of his own thoughts.

"No, Alpha." Lyrus shook his head immediately. "I have never seen your mate." At this point, he was still questioning Raine's status.

Whether she was a chosen mate or she was indeed the destined mate of their Alpha, because it would affect Torak's reign.

"You had met her." Torak blurted out. "You had met her when you were ordered to retrieve all the guardian angels from the village of angels, centuries ago."

"What?" Lyrus frowned. Those memories were so old, he couldn't even recall some of the details of them.

Few things were still etched in his memory though, like how they had succeeded to destroy that village and killed all the shadow warriors, wiping them all from this realm as they took all the guardian angels inside the city.

"Pardon me, Alpha, but I don't understand." Lyrus confused. Who is she? Where and when had they met before?

"There was a girl who claimed that she was my mate the day you sent a warning message to the village of angels. Their leader told you that they had my mate with them, but you said that I said; I don't have a mate and asked you to kill her." Torak laid out the story for Lyrus to recall the old memory.

Lyrus took a step closer and Raine's body shrunk into Torak's embrace. She looked so small compared to Torak's huge figure.

The girl was so beautiful, yet fragile, the thing that Lycanthropes despised the most. One of the reasons why they looked down on the guardian angels. Because they were so fragile and weak.

"I don't remember her…" Lyrus mumbled. He stood only three steps away from the couple now. "But, I remember the leader of the shadow warrior saying something like someone had claimed to be your mate, Alpha."
