Chapter 758 - A STRONG PRESAGE

Raine was staring at the fire in the fireplace. It had been three hours since Torak had gone to the nearby town that was attacked by the rogue.

When Calleb heard the words of rogue, he scrunched his nose in despise and a deep frown appeared on his face, but thankfully, he didn't say any foul word in front of Hope and Lana.

Raine tightened the blanket around her body and rested her chin on her knees while listening to Lilac and Hope's conversation.

Both of them were talking about a lot of things and Raine would listen to them, occasionally she would chime in and added a few words here and there, yet her mind was still thinking about Torak. She couldn't mind- link him, so did Raphael and Calleb.

Serefina said it was because of the spell that a few witches had chanted around this area, therefore they were not able to use it.

And for now, Serefina was trying to fix the situation, for this reason she was not in this room.

"How about you Raine?" Hope suddenly asked Raine, who had been staring at the fireplace, brooding.

"Huh?" Raine was surprised by the sudden question. She cleared her throat when she caught Hope and Lilac's expectant gazes. "I am sorry, I didn't listen to the question. What did you ask earlier?"

"See? I told you, she was not listening." Hope looked at Lilac triumphantly. "She is worrying about her mate." That was true, any creature who had eyes would agree with her.

"You don't have to worry Raine, there will be nothing happen to them. Need more than rogues to knock the three of them down." Lilac chuckled lightly.

Both Lilac and Hope seemed didn't take this matter seriously. However, Raine couldn't feel at ease before she watched Torak with her own eyes that he was not hurt.

After all, Raine had felt what it was like to lose Torak, when she thought the devil had beheaded him, thus she was slightly restless now.

"What did you ask?" Raine tried to brush off Lilac and Hope's words, who were trying to appease her worry, because no matter what they said, she wouldn't be relieved until she saw Torak again.

"I asked you; how about we start training tomorrow?" Hope repeated her question. "Lilac is very advance with her power while you and I still can't grasp what our power means." She slightly pouted her lips, very dissatisfied with the progress she had.

"Sounds good." Raine also grimaced when she remembered how she would be thrown to strange places and different time without knowing how to control it.

Lilac had told Hope and Raine that she was raised by the moon goddess herself and was taught a few things for her to share with the other guardian angels. Hope was very excited, her big eyes widened in anticipation when she heard that and Raine smiled brightly, if Serefina couldn't find out why she still was not able to control her power, perhaps Lilac could help her with that.

Not too far from them, Raphael and Lana were having their conversation, and Calleb was sitting near a window petulantly, glaring at the cloudy night sky. The sky was very dark with c.u.mulous clouds producing thunder and lightning. It seemed the night would be very cold and rainy.

Seeing how boring Calleb because he didn't get a friend to talk to when he was the most chatter person that Raine had ever met, she excused herself from Hope and Lilac, she pointed her finger toward Calleb, gesturing that she would be with him for a while before she got up and walked over.

Lilac and Hope nodded, continued their chat when Raine had sat down next to Torak's Gamma.

"Lilac," Hope called her, she remembered one thing that kept bothering her. "I have dreamed several times about a river."

"A river?" Lilac asked. The two of them were sitting on a green warm rug while hugging a big pillow. "What kind of river? What did you do there?"

Lilac shrugged her shoulder. "I know it sounds absurd," she was hesitated to tell her. "But I kept dreaming about this since I met Raine," then she added. "If I am not mistaken."

The dream felt so real and if the first and second dreams made Hope think it was just a dream, the next few nights when she had the same dream over and over again, she thought otherwise.

"And what you did there?" Lilac leaned over so she wouldn't miss a single word from Hope.

"I am not sure, what I did there." Hope looked confused. "I was not really doing anything. I feel like my body was very small and I was flying on the surface of the river. The river was frozen."

"Frozen river?" Lilac seemed to recall something. "Apricity River."

"What is Apricity river?" This was the first time Lilac heard about this river.

And then, Lilac and Hope spent another hour to talk about the river and her dream. Lilac didn't really know what the meaning of Hope's dream, but the fact that Apricity river was frozen and Hope saw it in her dream, it must mean something.

Meanwhile, Raine nudged Calleb's cheek to get his attention, but the Gamma just glanced at her before he resumed staring out of the window.

"Why do you look so cranky?" Raine chuckled when Calleb ignored her. Despite his rejection, Raine still rested her head on his shoulder while looking at the dark sky. "It seems it will be rainy night…" she mumbled.

"There will be a storm," Calleb said. He didn't push Raine away, but he still didn't want to look at her direction too. "I have never been here, but I heard the storm in the southern region is awful."

Raine nuzzled on Calleb's neck and finally he gave up and wrapped his arm over her shoulder.

"Things are going to get really bad from here, don't they?" Somehow, Raine had a strong presage about their situation.
