263: SHE CAUSED MORE HARM TO HIM

SHE CAUSED MORE HARM TO HIM

Raine felt her body shivering from the intense stare she was receiving from the beast.2

And then, another rumble of the clanking chains was heard when the white Lycan struggled to get himself free from the shackles that held him.

The white Lycan wanted to move toward her, but the shackles wouldn't let him.

Raine didn't know what she should do right now, because the sight in front of her was killing her inside.

Standing rooted to the ground, Raine breathed raggedly as she couldn't even move a single finger.

The vision that she had seen before this had warned her that it was something that she would have to see once she decided to ignore both Raphael and Belinda's admonitions; not to meet Torak for the meantime.

By now, Raine should have prepared herself, but the truth said otherwise, she was still shaken up at the sight of the beast.

Raine was overwhelmed by various complicated emotions. Sadness, helplessness, fear, anxiety, nervousness, shock and many more…

Because the beast couldn't get himself free from the chains that restrained him, the white Lycan begun to yelp as if he were a pup at the sight of Raine…

He wanted her to come closer to him… the scent of her drove him crazy as his eyes were filled with longing…

"What have you done to him?" A tear fell from Raine's cheeks at the sight of the way, the white Lycan looking at her. "You are torturing him…" She mumbled helplessly.

The beast's red eyes held Raine's black ones with a painful gaze and she had a sudden urge to run toward him and wrap him in her arms, bury her head in his soft fur, to calm him down.

"Release him…" Raine muttered in a low voice.

But, Raphael shook his head resolutely. "We can't do that Raine." He said apologetically. "The chains that held him have been charmed with a powerful spell."

Raine's eyes traced the chains that bolted to the wall and kept the Lycan in his place, without giving any chance for him to move even an inch.

How torturous this must be for Torak to be treated this way. Wasn't he their Alpha, but why could they do this to him?

"This is for his own safety, Raine." Raphael answered Raine's unspoken question, from the look on her face, it was easy to read what was going on in her mind.

Raine didn't believe him and was still thinking that he was torturing his own Alpha.

Calleb, who was almost as stunned as Raine, spoke in a rigid voice. "What happened to the Alpha?" He remembered the last time he saw Torak in his human's form, his eyes were still the color of red even though Raine was closer to him and was not in danger.

But, the beast still surged to the surface.

That could only happen if…

"Raph, is it… the beast?" Calleb asked hesitantly.

Raine stared at Raphael and Calleb, she was feeling lost her words to ask about what happened, but it was clearly reflected in her eyes, hundreds of unspoken questions were roaming around in her head.

"Torak is not in a balanced condition, his beast was stronger than his human side." Raphael frowned when the beast tried to break free from the chains that held him back once again.

The metal rumbling sound echoed through the entire room. This wasn't a big room, it could only fit twenty people for the very most and there was only one door.

Raine felt her heart being tugged ruthlessly when she watched Torak's condition. How could something like this happen?

"How?" A soft whisper- question escaped her lips. "How could he turn like this?"

Raphael grimaced once again when the beast let out a painful howl as his bloody eyes fixed on the figure of small girl, who was on the verge of breaking down. "This is the result of a series of events."

"What do you mean?" Raine's eyes met the beast's and she felt an unexplainable connection between them.

"When the first time he left you," Raphael started. "He wasn't angry at you. He was upset at himself that he couldn't protect you properly and regretful for the harsh words that he had said to you, to the point of making you cry."

Raine remembered that day, the moment Torak had an outburst when he thought Raine was taking Aeon's side.

Raine felt extremely bad…

"Even though it's against his nature, but he realized that you have to become stronger and gain your own power in order to protect yourself, because no matter how hard he tried to keep you safe, the dangers that lurk around you, many a time, are something that he couldn't control." Raphael shook his head in regret. "Especially when you suddenly travelled back to the past."

The beast growled with his fangs bared. He looked to be in a constant state of aggression and agitation after he wasn't able to move closer to the girl.

"And what happened after that?" Raine's voice was so small, she couldn't afford to cry again. Even her tears couldn't ease the pain that she felt right now.

"We went to find the cure for Serefina, because Torak thought it was the only way to help you, as Serefina was the only person who knows your condition better." Raphael spoke everything truthfully.

He had brought Raine to this place, which had broken the order of his Alpha, since he had already committed many offenses, thus he would just go all the way and tell the whole truth to Raine.

"He was injured when we returned to give the cure to Serefina, yet when we came back, you were nowhere to be found." Raphael looked at Raine. "You suddenly disappeared. Even when you are inside the house under tight protection and charms that could repel black magic and curses, you disappeared. Torak was beyond livid at that time."

Raine gulped hard. In his injured state, Torak still went all the way to find her.

If only she didn't go outside at that time…Probably, Torak wouldn't end up in his condition now.

In the end, her weaknesses had caused more harm to him than what she had thought.
