Here's the second/last one for tonight! This book has thrown me out of my comfort zone (strictly wolves), so this was indeed harder to write than the rest of my books, and I am hoping I was able to deliver how I pictured the scenes in this story and the fantasy in it. But a massive thank you to everyone who keeps reading! Your gems, comments, and reviews keep me going and striving hard to keep the story flowing! Thank you, lovelies! (No, it's not the end yet.) We still have more for Lucy and Adan, and the others too! So I hope you will stick around! 🤍
ADAN STONE. "Speaking of healing… I have many things to ask about him being a demon, but I want to know, how in the hell did you heal Lucius?" Lucy’s head tilted in my direction, and our gazes met. This was it. I had to tell her, but I was not sure if I was ready to let her know. And just when I thought I had no way out, Lucius’ demons appeared in the cave, and all attention was now drawn to them. ‘Did I just save your ass?’ Lucius asked in my head. So I was right — he did summon the demons to distract Lucy. ‘Thank you.’ ‘Just repaying you for killing Lucien and giving me his heart. Knowing Lucy, whatever deal you made, I was sure she would go ballistic. Better you tell her that somewhere else or she might blow up this whole place.’ Lucius added. ‘I want one more payment.’ I told him, ignoring everything else he said. He was looking at the other side of the cave, but I saw him raise his eyebrows. ‘Guillermo. I want to kill him.’ I told him when he didn’t say anything. A smile
Author's note: To the readers of my previous series: Just a reminder that this book (Lucy and Adan's) happened 10 years after "Stealing The Heart of My Alpha"BLADE.When I agreed with this setup, all I wanted was to make sure Althea would be around me so it would be easier to look after her if ever the king of hell decided to come after her. But I didn’t expect to be questioned by Adan’s family, and the fucking problem was that I wasn’t even allowed to say anything and had to play dumb.Although Stone’s parents and grandparents were subtle and respected my silence, Alexa, Stone’s cousin, was another case. I was not prepared for her. She arrived around lunchtime with her mate, and she came to me like a hurricane, bombarding me with questions about Lucy. And no matter how I pretended not to care at all about Lucy and her whereabouts, she was not dropping the subject."So that’s it? You can’t remember anything about her, and you just let it go and take another female, although everyone
LUCY. Although I was tired, my mind was excited. I couldn’t wait to get out of here and just live a simple life with Adan. I stayed awake waiting for him and Lucius to come back while Patrea dozed off in my bed. She told me she hadn’t had a decent sleep in days just thinking about the things that could go wrong, and now that it was over, she just wanted to sleep the night away. I initially offered her her own room, but she refused. She was not comfortable in the tower, and she knew she would not be able to sleep if I were not around. But before she fell asleep, she told me about meeting Althea and how happy she was that even though Adora was gone, she left a part of her and that she was able to reconnect with a family. She told me Althea was excited too, and they’d been planning to live together. Patrea was really happy and was looking forward to having a normal life, despite knowing she would never grow old and that one day she would see Althea perish. But she didn’t want to th
ADAN STONE. After we said goodbye to Lucius, I held Lucija in my arms and didn’t give her time to ask questions about her brother. I knew the new king probably wanted a moment with Patrea, and just based on his behavior toward her, I knew she was in good hands, so I was not worried. I transported our bodies back to the packhouse and left Patrea with Lucius. In just a matter of a few seconds, our bodies landed in the receiving hall of my packhouse. I had no idea what time it was already in the human realm, but it seemed like everyone was inside the packhouse. I let go of my mate in my arms as we came face to face with Sheena/Althea and the other me. Lucy’s body stiffened, and I could feel anger surge up inside her, but it died down almost immediately. She probably realized it wasn’t me with Sheena. "Lucy?" Althea’s voice was louder than usual, and people in the kitchen probably heard her, since rushing footsteps echoed around almost as soon as she mentioned Lucy’s name. My mother
LUCIUS. I walked carefully to where Patrea was sleeping. I was contemplating whether I should wake her up or not but finally decided on the latter. I had no idea what her mood would be if I woke her up. Maybe it was better if she was sleeping, at least I would be free to look at her. I showered mist over her, an enchantment to keep her sleeping. With the power I got from Lucien, I would be able to carry the enchantments even if I crossed realms, so she would still be asleep once I took her back to Stone’s home. I should be sending her on her own, but I wanted to make sure she would not end up somewhere far from where she should be, so I decided that I would take her there myself. I wanted her in Stone’s territory, and I hope the Alpha will keep his promise to let the witch and her granddaughter live within his pack. It was my only way to keep an eye on her. My hand reached for her cheek, brushing my knuckles gently against her soft skin. I had no idea how long it had already bee
ADAN STONE. After dinner, we spent time with the entire family just answering questions, but I asked Lucy to keep the demon part of me a secret for now. Not that I was ashamed of it, but I thought it would be too much to spill everything out tonight. It was more important that we all focused on the fact that Lucy was now free from her father and free to stay with me. Besides, telling them I was already part demon would require us to spend more time explaining it when all I wanted was to have Lucy for myself. I only had her in my arms for a few minutes, and the longest one was when we were in the cove, and after not seeing her for a couple of weeks, I just want to spend time with her alone. Just us. As if reading my thoughts, Lucy yawned, and she looked like she was trying to be discreet about it, but from the way her eyes were gleaming with mischievousness as she looked at me, I knew she was finding a way to get us out of here. "I think Lucy is tired. We should let them rest and
LUCY. "Or we can fly..." I smiled widely at him, waving my arm in the air. I had taken Adan in my wings a few times before being taken to the underworld, but now I wanted to fly with him on his demon wings. "Are you sure? Our people can see us." Adan asked. His brows hiked up. "Will it bother you?" I put my arm down and bit my bottom lip. "No." He shook his head as he pulled my body closer, bumping our fronts together. "Do you think they will accept a demon Luna?" I asked. "Well, they also have a part demon Alpha. So they don’t have a choice. Besides, we are in the north, where supernaturals can be part of each other's territory if they want to. There are no rules prohibiting a demon from living in a pack. As long as I can protect my people, I can house as many supernaturals as I want." "That’s good to hear. But what if I scare them?" "Beast scares them too. But they’re still here. They still stand in front of him to protect him and the rest of the pack. I know you’ve never had
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
