351: TORAK'S DECISION

TORAK'S DECISION

"We need to stop them." Serefina tried to stand up with the help of Calleb and was ready to go out of the room to settle things on the first floor.2

Yet, before Raine could follow the witch, Torak held her hand and stopped her. "What will you do?" He asked Serefina.

"What do you mean by what I will do? of course, save your people down there." Serefina replied in a voice that was filled with agitation.

"How? By drawing my mate's blood?" Torak squinted his eyes.

Only then, did Calleb and Raine realize what kind of method that Serefina had in mind to stop the battle down there.

"How much blood will you draw from her to stop them?" Torak's voice was so stern. He couldn't tolerate seeing his mate being in pain because of this.

Serefina held Torak's gaze when she replied to him. "As much as it needed."

His grip around Raine's wrist that held her from walking away, tightened. Torak and Serefina stayed in that position for a few more seconds before Torak responded to her.

"I don't agree." His voice was like a final verdict with no room for discussion.

Raine could understand why Torak didn't agree with Serefina's suggestion, she was also afraid, after all it was her blood that needed to be drawn, but what about the others?

"So, what are you planning?" Serefina raised her eyebrows, she didn't mind to leave those Lycans behind, if that was what Torak wanted. "Leave your people behind?"

"We need to get out from here first." Torak said as he took the lead and walked out of the room.

On the first floor, Raine could see that the Lycans had started to lose the battle as their injuries couldn't be healed. Among them, Raine could also see Raphael in his beast form.

"Torak, we can't leave them behind." Raine tried to free her hand from Torak's grip, but she couldn't. "I don't want to leave them!" she struggled to release her wrist from him.

Calleb also was in a complicated situation, he didn't want to leave his comrades, especially when Raphael was still there, standing tall while fighting all of the evil creatures.

"Torak, are you really going to leave them?" Calleb couldn't help but ask, he was supporting Serefina's weak body as he followed his Alpha.

"No." Torak said curtly, but didn't stop walking. It was so contradicting with what he said.

If he didn't want to leave them, so why didn't he stop to help? It didn't make sense when Torak used the back door to go out of the house either.

"Torak, the other people are still inside!" Raine frantically tugged Torak's hand from her. "We need to help them. Raphael is still fighting as well!"

Calleb let Serefina to lean on him as they stood right in front of the house, from their position, they could still hear the sounds of the fierce battle that was going on inside of the house.

"Serefina, do something! We need to help them!" Because Torak refused to talk, Raine looked at the witch and asked for her help instead.

"I can't do anything to help them without your blood and since Torak doesn't agree to that method, I can do nothing." Serefina said in a matter of fact tone.

"Torak!" Raine was very upset because Torak was ignoring her through and through. "You can't do this to your people! Raphael is inside!"

Maybe Raine didn't know those Lycans' names one by one, but they had been around since Raine came here, and of course there was Raphael, how couldTorak close his eyes on his own Beta?

"I will save them." Torak placed his palms on both sides of Raine's small face, he looked into his mate's anxious eyes. "I will save them, you just need to stay calm, okay?" He repeated his words again.

Raine bit on her bottom lip before she nodded. "But, how?" They were outside of the house, don't tell her… "Are you going to go inside the house alone!?"

If that was what Torak wanted to do, then Raine wouldn't allow it! Thankfully, that was not what he intended to do.

"No, I will not." Torak caressed her head and said softly. "Stay here with Calleb and Serefina."

Raine didn't know what Torak wanted to do, but she did what she was told, as she didn't want to delay whatever Torak would do next.

"What will he do?" Calleb stared at his Alpha, who was standing tall right in front of the three of them.

On the other hand, Serefina narrowed her lime green eyes, apparently she had guessed in her mind about what Torak was going to do.

"He is crazy if he is thinking of doing that." Serefina murmured. Her voice was not low enough to prevent Raine and Calleb from hearing her. "I don't think his beast will be able to handle it."

"What do you mean? What is Torak trying to do?" Raine asked worriedly. She didn't want something bad happening to Torak. She had seen Torak in his worst state when he lost himself over his beast and she didn't wish to see him in that situation again.

In front of them, Torak looked straight toward the house while raising his hand. Afterward, he snapped his fingers in the air and a bird as big as a falcon with majestic flumage that was glowing brightly like a bonfire appeared beside him.

Raine had seen this bird before when Torak saved her in the library when Aeon took her away to give her the grimoire.

The bird circled above Torak's head three times before it went toward the house. Its small body allowed it to move swiftly and flew quickly.

No one knew what that little bird would do, except for Torak, and apparently Serefina.

Raine and Calleb looked at each other as they couldn't figure out what was in Torak's mind. However, before they could make a guess, suddenly from the direction of the house, they could hear the sound of a big explosion.

Soon after, the magnificent house crumbled as that building flattened to the ground within seconds, leaving only enormous debris in its wake.
