THE OATH

"NO!" Kace immediately objected Serefina's idea. He jumped to his feet and towered over Serefina, his action startled the baby so much that she started to cry. "DON'T YOU DARE TO TOUCH HER!"

Kace roared at Lana, who was about to reach baby Hope in order to calm the crying baby. However, Kace's harsh tone forced her to retreat and take a few steps back until her back hit the wall behind when she watched how Kace's blue eyes shifted into a darker color.

Despite the anger that bubbled in his chest, the way he carried baby Hope in his arms was so gentle and thoughtful.

"Do you think I will allow that!?" Kace glared at Serefina, trying hard to suppress his anger. 

"Calm down." Serefina didn't even flinch when Kace glowered at her. "I have not explained about it fully yet." 

"That is dark magic Serefina!" Kace admonished her. "I will not allow you to do anything in the likes of dark magic to my mate!"

Mate…
