LUCY."Lucius still couldn’t find or reach Guillermo. He’ll be checking on the other kingdom, but I told him to come back. The royal guests would be arriving soon." Father informed me."Royal guests? What do you mean? I thought the first step would just be us. Is the orgy scheduled today as well?" I asked calmly, but I was already starting to panic. Escaping one man was easier than seven demons all wanting a taste of me."No. Just you and Guillermo. Or Lucius, but they will be watching.""What?" I gasped."Does it bother you? It should not. We see orgies and sex all the time. But of course, it is a pleasure to see royals as the center of the event.""Why was I not informed?""It’s nothing big, Lucija. You're a demon. I'm sure you had as much fun fucking as everyone else." He stated this and turned his back on me before opening another hologram. My eyes darted to the hologram where Blade and Althea were. As much as I didn’t like seeing Adan’s body there, I knew it wasn’t him. There wa
ADAN STONE. He didn’t say anything more and just opened the door to where Lucien was, and the moment he did, Lucien’s aura struck me in full force. I forgot how powerful his aura was until now. Lucius had a strong aura, but it was nothing compared to how strong Lucien’s aura was, and I was now contemplating if we had the capacity to beat him. "Father, I couldn’t find Guillermo," Lucius stated right away. "Obviously. Or he would be here standing with me and not you." He replied without even glancing at Lucius. I could see Lucius trying to keep his jaw from tightening. He had told me how his father had disregarded him all the time, and I just shrugged it off, but I could see it now with my own eyes. And I didn’t know if I should feel bad for him or not — at least without Lucien’s attention, he was free to do whatever he wanted. "I know that and what if I have no intention of going through the rituals with Lucija? Do you have a backup plan?" "What are you talking about?" Lucien hi
ADAN STONE. Sweat formed everywhere on my body as Lucius gave me his final instructions for tonight. After this, I had to work with a limited conversation with him since he might need to transfer every thought Lucien would give him to me, especially during the rituals. Rituals — but, in my opinion, it was nothing more than a fucking open show in which everyone here would feast on my mate’s body. I wasn’t sure if I was prepared for this, but I reminded myself that this is the demon world, where nakedness and sex out in the open were nothing to be ashamed of. But I was glad for once that Beast was still in slumber, or it would be harder to control both of us around our mate. "From the expression on your face, you’re not liking this at all." Lucius’ voice snapped me out of my thoughts. "I thought we didn’t need to mate in there." I sighed in disappointment. "But you heard Lucien. He made a spell to ground Lucy there until she came. It’s just a fuck. Just get it over and done, and I
ADAN STONE The moment we entered the cove, I threw out all the nervousness I felt inside. I had Lucius’ body and Lucy’s power. I would be at par with every demon in this place, and there was no reason for me to be terrified. I needed to save my female. Most importantly, I had Hades’ favor on my side - I should be okay. I let my eyes roam the whole cove — it was dark, and the lights illuminating the place were just the candles scattered everywhere and the burning stones separating the middle from the platform where Lucien sat on his throne. Demons of various kinds sat on the sides, on higher ground but not higher than Lucien’s. Some of them were in their demon forms, but most were wearing the human facade that Lucien and Lucius now had. But Lucy was not yet here. ‘Come here, Lucius,’ Lucien’s voice rang in my head, but it came from Lucius. He was directly sending me his father’s command. I walked towards the middle in a confident stride with Lucius’ invisible form beside me. M
LUCY. ‘Did my Omega miss me?’ Adan asked in my head. ‘Yes, Alpha…’ I answered him. My lips quivered as my heart warmed at the soft way he asked this question. I missed my Alpha. I never thought there would be a day that I would wish I was just a simple Omega until now. I wish it were simpler than this. Before the first tear dropped from my eyes, Adan grabbed and cupped my face so tightly that it hurt me before he began kissing me again, harder than all of the kisses that he had given me in the past. I could taste blood in between our kisses, but I welcomed and reveled in it. Angel purred in my head, telling me that despite the absence of Beast, her heart was telling her it was Adan in front of us. It was enough for me to let go of the little inhibitions left in me. If my wolf believed he was our mate, who was I to object? I suppressed the whimper wanting to come out of my throat as his mouth trailed on my neck as I listened to Lucius’ words in my head about the enchantments on
ADAN STONE.Everything happened so fast. One moment I was in euphoria, fucking Lucy with all the love and lust I had for her, and the next moment, I was transporting the King of Kalmerus somewhere outside his kingdom.Lucien’s aura was low at the moment because of the ritual, plus his own fear had added to the decline in his power, which in turn surged up mine. His fear over what I did enabled me to transport him.He thought I was Lucius, and my mark on Lucy would kill her because Lucy never felt an ounce of love for her brother. But I was sure she loved me.But it was still a fatal mistake. I was not supposed to mark her — that I was just supposed to pretend that I would, to instill fear in her father, but the sex made me lose my mind and I was not able to control my actions. Lucien and I landed in a cave where Patrea was. No words were spoken between us as she immediately cast a spell around Lucien, binding his hands and legs together."What is this, Lucius?" He roared, his eyes bl
LUCIUS. The female that appeared out of nowhere was wearing a long, black cloak, and if I were right, she might be the witch Lucien used for the enchantment of the cove. "It took me a while to find where they took you!" She snapped at him before directing her gaze at us. "She’s a witch!" Lucy blurted out as she shoved Stone behind her and positioned herself in a protective stance, but Adan was fast to reverse their position so that he was now in front of her. "That I am! Nice to see you, Patrea! I didn’t know you would turn to the other side!" The witch smirked as she diverted her attention to Patrea.. "If Lucien hadn’t bound me with his damn contract, I would have left a long time ago! And you’re making a great mistake, Zelda! You still have time to abandon Lucien. And we will never come after you!" Patrea yelled at her. "Too bad, Patrea, I can gain more from him than you!" She glared and blasted a light on our side, and Patrea mustered up her energy to building a shield to cov
LUCIUS. The fireballs hit me badly. I haven’t recovered from the one given to me by Zelda, and these recent ones have shattered every part of me. I was losing this battle. This was already enough. Seeing Patrea almost die twice was enough for me to realize I could never take Lucien down. Lucija’s aura wasn’t changing, and I could not force her to do more. She had never embraced her demon self in the first place. And I brought them all here. They shouldn’t be paying for my mistake. I coughed up blood as I tried to heal the cut directly above my heart to stop the bleeding. But I was too weak. I’d always been weak, and I had no idea why I was chosen as the heir of Kalmerus. But it was all gone now, as fast as it came. Patrea came rushing, and despite the pain coursing through my whole body, a smile tugged on my lips. I could end this now, and she would be safe. "Lucius…" Her voice broke as she dropped to her knees and held the hands I was using to keep my blood from oozing out o
