This situation would get out of her hand if Raine didn't make decision quickly, thus she stared right into Aeon's eyes and said."If he makes a single move that threat any of us, you can kill him, " Raine declared.
If she didn't do this, those Alphas would start questioning her and the time was ticking, the longer they were arguing over this matter the more dangerous Torak situation was.
Not to mention Raine wouldn't know what she would face there or what she looked for the moment they were inside that strange bar.
Raine just knew that she needed to be there, immediately.
"Will you take this?" Raine asked Aeon."If you make a move that will risk my pack member, then I will not in their way to finish you."
Raine wanted to make it clear since the beginning, she needed to make Aeon and the rest of the member of the pack to understand where she was standing.
Aeon held Raine's gaze firmly before he said."Absolutely."
Upon hearing Aeon???s acceptance, Raine turned around and faced her pack member."Any objection?" She wanted to make sure that she and the rest of the member were in the same term.
All the Lycans there looked at each other, this was a big risk to take Aeon with them, but Raine had promised them her words.
"Is it necessary to bring him with us?" Alpha Rodrigo, apparently, still couldn't accept it.
"Yes, " Raine nodded firmly."We will need every help possible."
There was an awkward silence that follow until Raphael took the initiative to not waste their time anymore.
Raine had told him about the firebird and the little bird had become weaker as they went here. It made him nervous for some reason.
"Let's go now, " Raphael put his hand on Raine's shoulder when there was no objection anymore from the Alphas.
Now, Raine was slightly confused about what she had to do, she looked at Serefina who avoided her gaze. The witch despised the idea that she had to work together with Aeon, regardless, Raine still thanked her for not contradicting her words in this situation and made it become more awful.
Her attitude was always one of a kind
Because Serefina didn't want to help her, Raine turned her attention toward Aeon.
As if sensing Raine's discomfort, Aeon inched closer to her. He stretched his arm to grab Raine's wrist, but was held back by Calleb. The Gamma glared threateningly.
"You can lead the way." Calleb talked in warning tone.
Aeon shouldn't touch Raine carelessly, especially under those Alpha's eyes. Once they got the wrong idea, with Torak wasn't around, Raine wouldn't only lost their trust, but also her life.
Despite the Alphas' declaration that they pledged their loyalty to her, but Raine's position was not secure enough for her to make unnecessary mistakes.
One wrong step, and next there would be another Alpha Ryan from those five Alphas. They couldn't risk that.
Fortunately, Aeon didn't refuse and after he took another glance at Raine he walked out of the house."Over here."
In the front yard, where they had cleaned up all that place from the carcasses of the traitors as they burned them all, Aeon stopped and looked at Serefina when all of them were already outside.
"Come here." He waved his hand at Serefina and immediately offended the very sensitive witch.
"What!?" Serefina started to bark."I think you will do it all by yourself!"
"Stop acting so arrogant, you know how this work, " Aeon scowled at her attitude."You don't have much time, " he added when he watched the witch became reluctance.
Leaving without any other choices, Serefina grumbled as she walked closer to Aeon and stretched out her hand, which was held by the shadow warrior.
"I really need to sanitize my hand after this." Serefina, once again, made a snarky remarks that made Raine's heart skipped a beat. She didn't want this to be another fight.
Yet, Aeon just replied casually."I can always chop off your hand if they bother you so much."
"Okay, can we start now?" Raine approached them and cut off Serefina come back as she glared at the witch and spoke in frustration."Not now."
Raine was so lucky that Serefina was in her right state of mind now as she swallowed her protest.
"Okey, that's enough. Stay away from me." Serefina then stepped back and walked away from Aeon with unsightly expression on her scowling face.
Raine was about to ask; didn't they will join force or something to create some magic?
But, before Raine could complain there was a wave of sound of people were gasping in surprised and then murmured spread around her.
What happened?
"That is the bar." Aeon's figure came into Raine's line of sight as pointed something behind her back.
As Raine turned around, she could see a building, painted in light brown color with high roof and a welcome sign on the front door.
Raine even didn't notice when Aeon and Serefina had transported them here.
But, Raine wasn't the only person who confused with their sudden change of environment, almost all the people there were gasping in surprised, because one moment they were in their city and now they were in unknown place.
"Luna, where are we?" one of the Alpha approached Raine as he stared at Aeon unfriendly."Why we are suddenly here?"
"Magic of course." Serefina replied with a 'duh' tone when she had done washing her hand from the water that she conjured from thin air.
Raine wished she could do the same thing as her.
The Alpha ignored Serefina as he asked another question."What we will do now?"
Raine skimmed her surroundings briefly, apparently, Serefina and Aeon managed to bring them all to the front of a house, which Aeon said was the bar in her vision.
"We will go there." Raine nodded at the house in front of her. She reached her pocket and felt the little bird's shallow breathe.
