magicChapter 1057: His mate is in danger  

Although it was apparent that the two supernatural beings weren't on good terms, but in matters of keeping this place safe, they seemed to have a tacit understanding, which allowed them to work well.

It took Raine about ten minutes to get there. It also showed how big a fortress Lilac had built, as well as how much energy she had to burn to build all of this.

Not only that, but it also showed how much pain she felt for whatever Jedrek had done earlier.

Raine didn't know how she would feel about all of that if she was in Lilac's shoes, because seeing her fellow guardian angel so down about what happened, made Raine feel that sadness too.

She couldn't imagine herself being in Lilac's position and Torak devoting his attention to other women, because all this time Torak had never made Raine doubt his loyalty…

Not even once.

Sigh...

Raine's worries about Lilac flew out of her mind as soon as her eyes landed on a heartbroken Calleb.

Raine also saw Sybil and the two other magicians who were on duty to guard.

Not only the magicians, but Raine also found Sterling with them. The man looked at the brown- furred beast with eyes which showed deep sadness.

He was still coping up with his endless grief over the loss of his mate and children, but he still had Ethan and his instincts as a father, helped keeping him sane.

"Sterling," Raine greeted Sterling and surprised the man by her arrival.

"What are you doing here?" Sterling asked.

"I think we both have the same reason for being here..." Raine answered with a smile on her lips and Sterling replied with the same smile.

For a moment they both fell silent. Their eyes turned to stare at the beast before them, separated by a thin transparent wall.

The brown beast was still howling loud heart-wrenchingly, like a wounded wolf, asking for help, or maybe it was a desperate call to his lost soulmate...

"Where are you going?" Sterling gasped when he saw Raine walking forward, intending to get closer to the invisible cage.

However, Raine didn't respond, her focus was entirely on the beast.

"Luna, please. Step back from there... it can be dangerous..." Sybil tried to warn Raine, but as if she was in a world of her own, Raine didn't listen to her warning as she walked closer and closer to the point where she was standing right in front of the invisible wall.

"Luna..." Sybil tried to warn Raine again.

This time, Raine raised her hand and felt the smooth texture of the walls that kept the beast shackled.

The brown beast stopped howling and stared at her with red and intense eyes.

"Luna..."Sybil called to Raine. "Back off..."

And the things the people around them thought weren't going to happen, ended up happening.

At first, Raine's palms only touched the surface of the invisible wall, but then, as Raine moved her hand forward, she was able to pierce it, so did when she stepped through the magic formation that had been confining Calleb in place.

They all gasped, feeling shocked as they widened their eyes in disbelief.

And once they realized what was actually happening, Raine was already in the cage, with the feral beast staring at her cruelly.

"Oh, sh*t!" Sterling cursed under his breath as he watched the beast's feet shuffle, approaching the guardian angel.

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

Torak woke up, sensing that something was off.

His head was aching and his eyes felt very heavy, drowsiness still violently attacked him, but this uncomfortable feeling forced him to wake up.

When Torak tried very hard to open his eyes, he found himself in his bed alone, without a trace of Raine.

The spot Raine should be in was cold, indicating that she had disappeared from his side for quite a while.

"Raine?" Torak tried to call out to Raine in his hoarse voice, but he couldn't hear an answer from his mate.

Instantly Torak opened his eyes widely and glanced around the tent, but he didn't find what he was looking for.

With a body that was heavy and in pain, he forced himself to get out of the bed and went out of the tent, allowing his beast's instinct to pick up his mate's scent...

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

Raine didn't know if this was a right thing to do or not but for sure she felt an urge within herself to do this.

Therefore, this was what she was doing now.

Raine walked very slowly toward Calleb's cage and stepped through it with ease, as if it was a thin mist that had no effect on her.

Even after finally entering it, Raine did not feel anxious or nervous, because the air in the cage was thick and full of deep sadness and sorrow.

And the source of all that feeling was the brown beast who was staring at her savagely, as if the guardian angel was his mortal enemy.

The beast began to walk, stalking her while growling dangerously.

While from the outside, they could hear Sterling's voice, screaming. "Remove this spell!"

"I can't!" Sybil replied, with fear evident in her trembling voice, that anyone who saw her right now, could understand how terrified she was feeling now.

How could she not?

A guardian angel, who looked very weak and so gentle, was facing a beast which almost went feral alone, and it was three times her size with razor-sharp fangs and claws that could slash through her neck in a single strike.

Raine would die right away if the beast decided to pounce on her!

What was the Guardian Angel even thinking?!

"Raine get out of there!" Sterling exclaimed, then turned his attention back to the witches. "What do you mean you can't dispel that magic? Isn't that your handiwork?!"

Sybil shook her head hard.

"No... No... I don't know, but I can't..." Sybil then looked at the other magicians who were shaking their heads anxiously, indicating that they couldn't undo this magic either.

"Call Belinda!" Sterling gave orders as he ran the other way to find Torak.

His mate is in danger!
