Chapter 740 - YOU NEVER KNOW
You Never Know –Blackpink-
**************
Actually, Jedrek didn\'t need to come and met her, but he didn\'t want to hide. What was the point of him hiding when eventually they would meet with each other? Serefina would stay inside the castle and there was no way to avoid her forever.
Therefore, he chose to confront it. At least, he had his mate now…
Jedrek smiled at Lilac, but his eyes were dull. He was not in the right mind to appreciate the spark between them when he grabbed her hand or the way she smiled back at him softly.
Because the moment he ordered to open the gate, he watched the woman he had been missing for a long time. She was standing there, within his arm- length.
Jedrek could walk toward her and touch her the way he wanted. He could walk toward her and pull her into his arms, hugging her like he had dreamed for these past centuries.
His heart betrayed him. The mate bond between him and Lilac was not strong enough to stop his desire for Serefina.
Jedrek grabbed Lilac\'s hand even tighter when Serefina entered the castle and Lilac squeezed back his hand.
She was still the same as the last time Jedrek saw her. The same self- confidence and arrogant aura that surrounded her, two of the many things Jedrek loved about her.
Jedrek\'s eyes locked on Serefina. All of his senses told him about their proximity, reminded him that this was what he wanted… centuries ago…
But, now…
"Welcome back," Jedrek greeted Serefina with formality that sounded weird, even in his own ears.
"Glad to be back," Serefina said, she then shifted her attention toward Lilac. "You must be the king\'s mate. The guardian angel."
Serefina was surprised that she managed to keep her own voice steady, despite the turmoil that she felt.
"Nice to see you," Lilac spoke, as cheerful as she could, and gave the witch a smile that she hoped was sincere enough. "I am Lilac."
Serefina reciprocated Lilac\'s smile and the guardian angel thought everything would be all right between her and the witch, until Serefina spoke again.
"I am sure you know who I am," she said curtly and this made Lilac\'s smile faded away.
==============
Serefina was sitting on the floor, next to her bed while leaning her back against the wall, which she hit the back of her head against it too.
What happened in the last thirty minutes was the worst thing that had ever happened in her life.
Serefina didn\'t mean to be hostile toward Lilac. She had thought about this over and over again that she wouldn\'t be a jerk for Jedrek\'s mate. However, she couldn\'t help herself.
Her anger reached her throat and her eyes stung the moment she watched the way they were holding their hands.
The voice in her head told her, repeating the same pathetic words.
\'It should be her who is standing next to Jedrek. It should be her who is standing next to Jedrek.\'
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became and the feeling didn\'t help at all when her tongue chose sarcasm as a way to talk to Lilac.
Great!
Everything just out of control.
Good start, Serefina. She thought bitterly.
After all, being a hateful person was her way to protect herself. So, no one would be able to see her vulnerability. She had prepared herself for long time since she knew this day would come, but all of those days and nights, where she had to hide her tears and her feeling, poured down the drain, the moment she met Jedrek in flesh.
Unfortunately, when Serefina wanted to be left alone, someone knocked on her door
At first, she chose to ignore it and let them knew it was terrible time to disturb her, moreover she had said she didn\'t want to have a visitor, yet it seemed no one listened. The person didn\'t go and the knock on the door annoyed her.
In the end, reluctantly, Serefina stood up and trudged toward the door. She yanked it open to let whoever there, knew how upset she was.
The witch was just about to growl when the person she saw was the last person she hoped to meet soon.
"Can I go inside?" Lilac asked politely.
"No," Serefina replied curtly.
However, despite the rejection, Lilac still entered her bedroom anyway. The guardian angel found a single sofa in the corner of the room and sat there.
"I remember that I said \'no\' when you asked me whether you were allowed to enter my room or not." Serefina narrowed her eyes and chose to stand.
"This chat shouldn\'t take more than half an hour." Lilac met Serefina\'s gaze calmly and the witch had to admit she had never met a guardian angel as fierce and determine as her.
"I hope so," Serefina replied to her with formality. The sign that she didn\'t want to be attach or became close to her, so did Lilac. "What is it that you want to talk about that force you to grace me with your presence?"
Serefina scold herself internally for being such a jerk!
"I just want you to know that we are here for the same goal, regarding the war that will come." Raine started, but Serefina raised her hand.
"I know that. That is the only reason why we are here." Serefina then corrected herself. "Why I am here. You don\'t have to worry about what had happened between me and Jedrek in the past. It was over now."
Lilac smirked. "I have not even said anything about your and Jedrek\'s past and you can\'t wait to talk about it."
Serefina smiled harmlessly, this girl was something… "I am just happy that he finally found his destined mate."
Lilac stood up and approached her. "There is no need to lie. We both know that no one is happy in a situation like this."
