The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 1153: Aurora (32)

It's been two hours already but, it looked like a fierce battle was still going on out there and the members of the pack were still not allowed to leave the great hall.

And even though two hours passed, they all felt like two long days… as if their wait would never end.

At every second, they would be terrified at the bad news and the slightest movement, making them jump in fear.

And during those two hours, Aurora spent this time observing the members of the pack.

It could be said that this was the first time for Aurora to see the entire pack, but she didn't expect that she would meet them in this way.

Under these circumstances, neither of them paid any attention to Aurora or noticed that there was a new member of the pack that they didn't know.

There were around eighty people in this great hall, but of course this number was not the total number of the blood moon pack, because there were still some lycans warrior as well as people from low status, who were fighting outside.

Suddenly someone opened the door of the hall, making those who were near the door jump in fear and direct their focus there.

"Victor?" Clarice called out to the man who had just opened the door.

Meanwhile, Aurora sat on the floor, with Knox still clinging to her, not wanting to let go and every time there was a scream, howl or growl, his body stiffened, he hugged Aurora's neck tighter.

"What are you doing here?" Clarice asked the man named Victor confusedly, who then crouched down in front of Clarice and Aurora.

"You have to come with me," Victor said to Aurora.

"Why?" asked Aurora a little confused. She didn't even know this man. Even as a child Aurora was always told not to follow strangers, so there was no way she would do otherwise when she grew up. "Who are you?"

This time it was Clarice who explained that Victor was a magician in their pack. He was the second wizard in this place, while Cole was the fourth wizard, the youngest.

"You have to come with me," said Victor, he looked at Aurora and also Knox who was still hugging the girl's neck. "Give Knox to Clarice."

Aurora narrowed her eyes at Victor. "Why should I come with you?" For some reason Aurora felt an uneasy feeling from the man in front of her, witch or not, his vibe made Aurora uncomfortable.

However, she also had doubts about her feelings, because the current situation had made her even more wary than before. Made Aurora's instincts become suspicious of anyone who tried to get close to her.

"Because Alpha Draghar asked to meet you. You must be secured to a more hidden place," Victor answered bluntly.

"Then why only me? Doesn't he think about the rest of the pack?" Aurora asked. She swept her eyes across the room and couldn't believe that Draghar wasn't thinking of them.

She didn't know how cold Draghar was or how careless he was, but as an Alpha, it was his duty to make sure his pack was safe in an attack like this.

Aurora was born as a Donovan, where the responsibility of an alpha was something she understood well, like the blood that flowed through her body.

"Because you're his mate and he doesn't want you to get hurt," Victor said urgently, as if Aurora was just wasting their time by arguing with him. "As for the people here, they'll be fine, I've surrounded this place with protection spells along with the other three magicians." Seeing that Aurora was still motionless in her place, he added. "Don't you want to meet him?"

"How is the condition? Is the battle out there over?" Aurora did want to see how Draghar was doing. It was her first day in the pack and something as bad as this happened…

"Alpha Draghar and several other lycans are still fighting the rogue that attacked us," Victor replied.

Aurora narrowed her eyes. "You're a magician?" she wanted to make sure about it.

"Yes, I'm a magician," replied Victor firmly.

Aurora tried to contact Draghar through mind-link, but maybe they were too far apart or maybe because Draghar simply closed his mind like what he always did, and this made Aurora worried. They really should talk about this later.

"Okay," she answered. After a while, she looked at the magician in front of her and made her own judgment.

"Okay, give Knox to Clarice," Victor said.

Only, when Aurora was about to give the little boy to Clarice, Knox didn't want to let go at all. He insisted on hugging Aurora tightly and clinging to her like a koala.

And since Knox didn't want to let Aurora go, she couldn't help but take him too.

"May I come with you? I'll carry Knox while you talk to alpha Draghar…" Clarice pleaded. She felt comfortable with Aurora.

"Okay," replied Aurora.

"No," said Victor.

"She will come." Aurora frowned. Her suspicion of Victor only deepened… she sensed that the witch was up to something when he asked Aurora to come with him.

================

"Are you sure we are walking towards where Draghar is?" Aurora asked Victor who was walking in front of her. He slowly persuaded Knox to switch to Clarice, and after several tries, the little boy finally agreed to be carried by Clarice and released Aurora.

Only, his little hand gripped a tuft of Aurora's long hair, so she wouldn't walk too far from him.

This little boy could even be a lot more possessive than his big brother…

"I don't think Draghar is here..." said Aurora.

But, just after Aurora finished saying that, Victor suddenly turned around and a yellow light emitted from his palm, which hit Aurora and Clarice, of course Knox too.

Clarice and Knox immediately fell to the ground, but Aurora still stood staring at Victor coldly.

"How could…" He couldn't believe his magic didn't work on the girl.

"Because I'm a Donovan."
