The last six lycans that lurched forward towards her, were different from the other guards that Lilac had taken down easily.
It almost felt like the roots and vines that slithered and glided in Lilac's command were not able to keep up with their speed. On top of that, there were six of them.
Lilac gritted her teeth when she concentrated to keep them away from her. However, it was hard to put up her guard in all six directions at the same time.
They didn't give Lilac a break, even to breathe. One attack after another. It was more difficult than Lilac expected to get a firm hold of them.
And then, there was the time when Lilac was too occupied by the three beasts that circled her and the other two that were about to attack her simultaneously from her right and left side, she forgot that she missed one more beast.
The grey beast sneaked around her back. It was a close call for Lilac when she realized the beast's sudden movement. But, if it was not for the thunderous voice that stopped them and made those beasts lose their bearing for a few seconds, Lilac would have laid on the ground in her own pool of blood.
"ENOUGH!"
The Alpha King's voice was enough to rattle the window and shake the ground beneath them. It also caused the six beasts to winch as though they were in pain.
Once Lilac got this two seconds chance, she immediately moved her hands swiftly to tie those beasts down as fast as she could.
The six beasts roared in anger when they were subdued before a young, delicate girl like Lilac. It was simply a humiliation for them.
Only when Lilac was sure that it was safe enough to drift her attention away from her opponents, she turned around and faced the Alpha King. He was standing on the top of the grand staircase, he was donned in fine clothes, which could only be worn by the royal family.
Lilac was ready to see the man, who was cowardly enough to kill a baby.
To kill her.
Lilac was ready to spit out her contempt towards the lycan. But the moment when she caught a sight of him, all of the words died down in her throat. He was unlike any beings that she had seen before.
Lilac knew his red eyes, which contrasted with his light skin and black clothing, they were not the original color of his eyes. She couldn't help herself, but to find it to be rather appealing.
However, Lilac quickly composed herself. Although she was fascinated by the Alpha King's attractiveness that she found in his appearance, her lips pulled into a sneer when she spoke snidely."Good day to you, My Lord."
Actually that wasn't the greeting that Lilac had prepared, but after those words left her lips, she felt it was the most suitable approach for her at this moment.
On the other hand, Jedrek's eyes fixed on the girl who was standing haughtily among the destruction that she had created in his very own castle.
Jedrek knew what she was. He knew even before he could see her in person. The pull was so strong that it took all of his might to control his beast, and his possessiveness to not claim her.
This feeling repulsed him, but at the same time, it stirred something inside the Alpha as his beast became too antsy to stay calm.
It was well known for the shapeshifters, that at the first time meeting their mate, it was going to be the hardest time for them to resist the temptation of the mate bond.
Things got even worse when he was the Alpha. The stronger the Alpha, the stronger the pull of the mate bond would be.
Jedrek tried to appear indifferent, just like how he was used to show the world, but failed. His contorted face and bulging veins didn't allow him to appear that way.
Jedrek didn't look convincing, especially when her sharp voice rang in his ears...
"What is this?!" Jedrek managed to find his voice. His words came out through his gritted teeth, as his bloodshot red eyes never left the exquisite, and delicate figure of the young lady before his eyes.
The defiant act that Lilac showed to him, only made Jedrek want to subdue her even more, just like how her black eyes burned his cold fa?ade.
"There are a lot of things that we need to talk about." Lilac took a step forward and watched his eyes hardened with every step that she took.
"Get out of my castle when I am still being nice." Apart from the side of Jedrek that was infatuated with this young girl, there was a small part of him that was still sane. That small part was questioning how it was possible for a guardian angel to have this kind of power.
Their kind was widely known as the weakest creatures in their food chain. However, how could it be possible for a single guardian angel to take down the entire guard, and six of his generals?
This really didn't make sense. It simply was not in tune to all the knowledge they knew about guardian angels.
Their kind shouldn't be this strong.
Lilac frowned as she put her hands on her h. i. p. s."Since when have you been nice to me?"
If one took a closer look, they would realize she was wearing a white tee shirt and jeans under her blue cloak. The way she was dressed just simply showed that she was not from this realm.
During their little conversation, a lot of guards had rushed inside the great hall, circled around Lilac, ready to take her down at any moment.
Besides Jedrek, Maximus was aware of Alpha's strange behavior. He was smiling beneath his concerned look when he asked him."Your order, My Lord?"
Jedrek didn't avert his eyes from Lilac. No, he couldn't take his eyes from her, but the words that came out from his mouth were as cold as a frozen river."Kill her!"
Lilac scoffed."Why don't you come, and get me yourself? Am I too tempting for you to resist?"
