Chapter 366 - MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE ANGEL AND THE DEVIL
"How do you think she can be in the Fulbright city?" Calleb asked Serefina, who was sitting across the table.
Calleb had just informed their pack in red river city and utilized their resources to find information about Torak's whereabouts as much as possible.
Not only that, the pack that was led by the seven Alphas who had betrayed Torak before also got a strict rule and once their people from the red river city came, they would go to the fulbright city if they couldn't find the Alpha until then.
This was a serious case, not only because this involved human world, but also the fact that the awakening of the devils drew near.
Serefina didn't answer him immediately, her green lime eyes fixed on the closed door as she was in deep thought.
"The thing that happened to Raine is not the same like what had happened to Torak." Calleb grew frustrated.
He came into this conclusion because if it was the devil doing, then Raine wouldn't be able to make a contact with him.
"Forget about the disappearance of Raine for awhile. Don't you think something is weird?" Serefina spoke as if she was daydreaming, her eyes were still etched at the closed door.
"What is weird?" Calleb frowned, his eyes traced the same spot where Serefina was looking at, yet he couldn't spot anything weird.
"We have talked about the traitors among Torak's pack." Serefina shifted her gaze on Calleb's face. "What if there is one here as well?"
Calleb's frown deepened. "Among the Alphas who helped with the search?"
"We can't rule out all the possibilities." Serefina voiced out her own thought. "Instead of worrying about Raine, why don't you think that there must be something will happen here since they got rid of Torak."
"What your guess?" Calleb leaned over to Serefina.
"They will start to make their move." Serefina then added. "Soon."
==============
Raine was having her dinner on her own as she tried to figure out how to preserve the tiny live on her palm.
The bird's condition didn't get worse, yet it didn't get better too.
Is Torak in danger? How is he now? Raine couldn't help, but became more and more nervous as the time passed.
"What should I do to you little one…" Raine nudged the little bird as she tried to feed it, but it didn't seem like to eat human's food and she didn't know what it like, thus Raine only gave it water, drop by drop.
Not long after that, just like how Raine had predicted, yet it came sooner. The phone call from Sunny.
Her phone rang a few times before Raine picked up her call.
"Yes?" Raine's voice turned rigid as she looked at the time; eight o'clock sharp.
"Raine…" Sunny called her name breathily. "Where are you?"
"Do you know Torak whereabouts?" Raine didn't want to waste any more time as she glanced at the tiny life in her hand.
"Yes, yes…" Sunny answered readily.
Raine raised an eyebrow. Were the devils not suspicious at all? They easily got fooled?
Raine was expecting Sunny wouldn't be so blatant to tell her directly that she had found Torak, Raine thought Sunny would give her some clues, which guided her toward Torak. Not direct confession like this.
Yet, since Sunny knew, so Raine would take every opportunity to find her mate.
"Can you come to the address that I will give to you?" Sunny asked again, her voice sounded lower than normal.
"Sure." There was a fleeting complicated emotion before Raine resumed her composure and calmly asked. "Will you come with me as well?"
"Yes, I will meet you there." Sunny then hang up the phone.
Raine put her phone down when a few second later it rang, a notification that she just received a message. There was an address when she opened it.
The only reason why Raine didn't ask anything, because she knew what would be waiting for her the moment she came.
And just like her, the other party also knew the phone call between Raine and Sunny was only pretense to relay her message to them.
Raine's message was clear; she wanted to know where Torak was.
And this, how the devil replied to her.
Raine placed her palms against her thumping heart as she closed her eyes. It was a lie if she said she wasn't afraid, of course she was, yet she knew this wasn't the right time to let her fear conquered herself.
'Everything will be all right.' Raine chanted to herself.
The moment she opened her eyes, there was determination in those beautiful dark eyes, as dark as the bleak night.
Raine picked up her phone and made a call as the other party picked it up on the second ring.
"Raph. I just got the address." Raine said rigidly.
==============
Raine walked under the canopies of the shadow of buildings and trees. The only source of light below this gloomy night was the lamp post along the street that led her to a three- story building.
She readjusted her jacket and made sure her face was covered under her hoodie as she walked down this path.
"Raine." Sunny waved her hand when she saw Raine and ran toward her.
Sunny was wearing body- hugging dress and jeans, she looked paler without her make up as her hair tied into a messy bun on top of her head.
"I miss you." Sunny hugged Raine a little bit tighter as Raine reciprocated it casually.
"I miss you too." Raine imitated.
"Ehm, I saw… Torak Donovan… mh, I meant…" she fidgeted as she talked, avoiding Raine's eyes, trying to find the right reason or excuse to explain herself. "Someone told me that…"
"I know, let's get there." Raine spared her the explanation, as she didn't need someone to tell lie and waste her time.
Every second was important for Raine and nothing needed to be explained when the situation had reached this point.
"Oh, yes… right. let's go." Sunny stammered as she led the way reluctantly.
