LUCY."That grumpy, growling Alpha already liked you from the very first time I laid eyes on you. But I didn’t know I would fall in love with you." Adan said and I could hear the sincerity in his voice."You’re making my heart flutter. Tell me I’m not dreaming?""Is the demon princess swooning over me?"My hands went up to his chest and gently pushed my body away from him as I stepped backward, grinning widely at him as I watched his wings retract from his back. "I think I am, from day one up to now. Up to forever."I moved a few more steps back until there was a big gap between us, and without a warning, I launched forward and jumped, shifting into my wolf in seconds. The moment Angel’s paws landed on the ground, Adan’s eyes were wide before he slowly dropped to his knees and bowed his head. He didn’t move and remained in his position while Angel looked at him, as confused as I was.‘Adan? What are you doing?’‘I’m bowing down to my Luna. I was not able to do this to you on the firs
LUCY. Beast and Angel initially wanted to run back together to the packhouse, but Angel was sore and tired, so they decided Adan and I could take charge. But I was sleepy, and we didn’t want anyone to see Adan’s wings without having the time to explain first. So Beast offered to take charge and let me ride on his back. Beast sped through the forest lines in no time, and we arrived at the packhouse just as the sun began to rise and bathe the building in its rays. We came out of the back of the forest, facing the east part of the house. We were both naked, but I immediately flicked my fingers, and voila, we were fully clothed! The perks of being a demon. "Wait..." Adan tugged on my hand, causing me to come to a halt. "Something is going on in front of the pack house." It was only then that I heard people talking, and from the sound of it, there were more than two people in a conversation. Adan held my hand tightly as we rounded the packhouse and ended at the front, where a crowd of
ADAN STONE.After the event outside the packhouse, Lucy and I excused ourselves so we could freshen up before breakfast, as we promised my family that we would explain more while eating. But since it was still early, we were planning to play hooky for a while in our room, but the plan ended abruptly even before it started, even before we could reach our room.Blade cornered me in the hallway leading to the stairs and requested to speak with me alone. From the expression on his face, I knew he would not accept a no, so I told my little bunny to go ahead and wait for me in our room instead, and I went with Blade into my office.I heard him lock the door as I made my way to my chair, and as soon as I sat down, he threw a thick envelope on my desk."What’s that?" I asked as I leaned forward and grabbed it. I opened it to find stacks of cash inside. I didn’t ask again, but I raised it and waited for his reply."For Althea." He answered in a cold voice."I’m not sure I understand," I told
LUCY. I went for a quick shower and put on some sexy underwear, hoping that by the time I stepped out of the bathroom, Adan would be in bed, splayed out naked, waiting for me, only to be disappointed as there was no trace of him inside the room. I tried to send him a mindlink, but he shut off his mind, both to our demon and to the wolf’s link. When I couldn’t wait anymore, I slipped on a pair of tight jeans and a regular shirt I had in his closet. I owned almost nothing, but maybe I could ask Adan to come with me to buy clothes. But the thing was, I still didn’t have any money. I remembered Lucius telling me one time that I could just summon money in my hand, but I needed to say where I wanted the money to come from. Otherwise, it wouldn’t work. It didn't have to be specific, and no names were required - it could simply be a bank or a boutique. But I wanted to play around. ‘Vault of Alpha Ethan. Ten thousand.’ I murmured in my mind as I laid my hand up. And just like that, a bund
LUCY. I stayed with Althea for a little more time as we talked about her and her plans. She wanted to experience going to school. I didn’t know she had never been to a real school. Everything she learned was taught to her by Adora. It was also the reason she never had any friends at all and had never really felt attracted to anyone. Her world was limited to the spells and magic that she learned at an early age. That’s why I couldn’t blame her if she didn’t have the courage I had in me when I forced my way into Adan’s life. Despite being powerful, Althea was still new when it came to falling in love, and Blade rejecting her was surely not a good introduction to it. After our heart-to-heart talk, Althea and I separated. She went back to her room, and I headed downstairs to find Adan. I wanted a word with him and Blade. I wanted this sorted out. I wasn’t going to force Blade to accept Althea, but he had to be man enough to face her and at least give their bond a try. If nothing else
LUCY. Breakfast came without a hitch. Although Mom was a bit disappointed about knowing Adan’s demon side at the same time as the pack, she was slowly getting over it. But the fact that Adan is now part demon still surprises them. I believe it will take them days or weeks to get over it, despite Adan's assurances that nothing had changed except that he now had wings and could move from one place to another without walking. That was already too much for them to take. So he didn’t include telling them he could summon fire and read lies as well. Plus, he could take off and put on clothes with a flick of his fingers. And the more serious stuff, like transforming into a full-fledged demon with horns and a tail. It would remain between us for now. After a very long breakfast, we decided to call it a day and hide in our suite. We didn’t have any sleep last night, and I just wanted to cuddle and be with Adan. I'm glad everyone understood. After making sure that Patrea would not leave the
ADAN STONE. My eyes snapped open when I heard a retching noises, and my reflexes went into full action. My hands reached out for Lucy beside me as I sat up abruptly from laying down. But the space was empty. My heart raced inside my chest before I caught sight of the light illuminated under the closed door of the toilet. That was where the sound was coming from. In seconds, I was already on my feet and heading for the bathroom. I threw open the door, almost tearing it off its hinges. "Lucy… What’s going on?" I asked, worrying as I crouched beside her. She was naked, sitting on the floor beside the toilet seat, and from the looks of it, she was trying to vomit, but the toilet was still clean. "Do you have an upset stomach?" She shook her head, and I wiped her mouth with the towel I grabbed nearby. "Something moved in my stomach, and then I felt like vomiting, but nothing is coming out…" "Are you pregnant? Are we having a pup?" I asked almost immediately, as it was the only log
LUCY. It didn’t take long after we told everyone that the test showed negative before we left for Kalmerus. I asked Patrea if she wanted to come along, and she glared at me as if I were joking. I knew I needed to be more cautious around her when it came to the Underworld because clearly, she didn’t want anything to do with it. Adan drove us out of the territory and into the nearest portal in the middle of the night. I was just hoping Lucius was in the tower and not somewhere fucking someone "Do you think I can come and go to the underworld without selling my soul or my body?" Adan asked, snapping me out of my thoughts. "You can try. As I stated earlier, you are now a part demon, so it shouldn’t be a problem unless one of the demon lords or gods forbids you from entering." "Shall I try?" "Do you know which portal you’re going through?" I asked. "Yes. The one nearest to the tower, where Lucius took me the last time. Surrounded with stone hinges." He explained. "Yup, that one.
