Chapter 903 - BLUE FLAMES

"Blood," Bree said before she sniffed the air one more time and her eyes immediately widened as she looked at Lana alarmed. "I smell blood from her."

Three pairs of eyes simultaneously turned toward Lana with fear clearly flashing in them when they realized what was happening to her.

"Lana, you are bleeding," Sophie said when she also noticed that the thick smell of blood was actually wafting from Lana.

Yet, Lana couldn't feel it. There were too many feelings, not to mention the unbearable pain which kept twisting her soul, therefore she was not aware about this before Bree mentioned it.

"Lana…" Keira looked at her anxiously because she didn't get any visible reaction, as if all life left her being.

"I will not make it," Lana said softly, her breathing turned uneven when she looked down and watched how blood flowed down before pooling around her feet. "I will not make it…"

"No, you will make it," Sophie said sternly. "We have to go now."

They could clearly hear the howls and snarls from their pursuers, who seemed to be approaching them very fast. If they didn't move now and reach the river before those beasts managed to find them, their chances to survive would be near zero.

Sophie looked at Rossie and Bree, and saw the panic in their eyes, along with the sadness in her daughter's.

"If the baby didn't survive… I won't want to live…" Lana murmured, she held her stomach, like the way she always touched her unborn son, like the way Raphael always caressed him. However, her feelings were very complicated now.

The movement of her baby was not very active like before. She could still feel him move, but she also clearly felt the baby's movements growing weak…

Something must have happened with the baby…

"I don't want to live… If something happened to you… I don't want to live…"

Lana bit her lips harshly to prevent herself from crying and shouting out her frustrations.

"No. You have to live and raise your son. Before that, we have to move again. Now!" Sophie looked more determined than before, as she held Lana even tighter and helped her to walk through the forest, which seemed to have no end.

"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?!" Wrath shouted at the witch.

Before their eyes, the castle filled with countless dead bodies from the massacre earlier, was being burned down to the ground by blue flames which were akin to waves in the vast ocean.

The blue fire spread through all the corners of the castle, not even missing an inch. It was licking every part of the place, burning it down to the ground.

"Burning the dead bodies to the ashes," Serefina said innocently, as she looked at the devil beside her.

This devil was really up to his name 'Wrath'. He was always filled with fury and his golden eyes shone brightly when he witnessed how Serefina had diminished their plan.

They could have used those bodies as their army, especially the people that had a sentimental relationship with the Donovan brothers.

However now, when Serefina had burned them to nothing, they wouldn't be able to do so.

"DON'T YOU KNOW WE CAN USE THEM!?" Wrath snarled at Serefina.

Meanwhile, the witch raised both of her hands and moved a step back, but the smirk on her lips and the way she looked at him tauntingly, only angered the already furious Wrath further if it was even possible.

"Of course I don't know…" Serefina said in a happy tone. "You created your plan behind my back, remember? How am I supposed to know that you will use those dead bodies? I am here, doing a favor for you to clean up after your mess."

"YOU!" Wrath couldn't take the way Serefina talked to him and he charged forward, but before he could do something harmful to the hateful witch, Lucifer intervened.

Out of the blue, the morning star appeared between the witch and his fellow devil, as he held his neck to stop his movement and threw him away.

Wrath flew a few meters away from the ground and disappeared, before he reappeared right beside Lilith.

The seven devils were back to claim their new comrades, but who would have thought that Serefina would burn them all into ashes, which in turn forced them to suffer a great loss?

"What are you doing Lucifer?!" Mammon shouted at him as he glared at Serefina viciously. "Kill her!"

On the other hand, Serefina didn't even felt intimidated with the voices that wanted her death, as she knew her value in this small group of filthy creatures from hell.

"Oh, you want to kill me?" Serefina chuckled, crossing her arms defiantly. She was always been an arrogant person and no one would be able to scare her simply by threatening to kill her.

Well, she had heard all kinds of threats to the extent she even lost count of the people who tried to intimidate her.

Lucifer turned around and looked at the arrogant witch with a smile on his lips, but his golden eyes said otherwise.

"Don't be so sensitive because of what Wrath and Greedy were saying." Lucifer glanced at the blue flames and shifted his focus back onto the witch standing before his eyes. "Why did you burn it down when you already knew that we can use them?"

Serefina shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly. "Don't overestimate me, how would I know your plan when you didn't even say anything about it to me. You promised me that you will share all your plans, but in the end, you didn't even let me know about your onset."

Serefina was clueless, after all she just recovered from her 'painful night' and when she finally found out about it, innumerable lives were already lost.

"What will you do if you knew about it before?" Lucifer asked, he knew the witch was playing dumb. It was either she was upset because she was left in the dark or she was upset because they had slaughtered her friends.

Maybe she was not as careless as she portrayed herself in front of them.

However, Serefina laughed out loud upon hearing his question. "Of course I will join the party, killing one or a hundred lycanthropes would be fun."

==============  

Merry Christmas for you, who celebrated it. May the spirit of Christmas bring you and your family hope, love and happiness.
