118 – Coming Home 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 think about it at the moment since Althea was just 18 and had many years ahead

of her.

Her only concern was Blade.

Blade had marked Althea because of the mess that happened during the full moon and the reason as

to why he didn’t want the rejection for now.

But it seemed that Blade had no intention of claiming her granddaughter.

She then asked me what I thought of Blade, but I had nothing to say about him since I just met him on

the same day Althea appeared at the Mystic Pack, but I did promise her that I would try to get

information from Adan.

I was still lost in my own thoughts when a knock came on my door.

My brows hiked up, but then I remembered it must be Adan, and he could never transport inside my

chambers since only Lucius and Lucien were allowed to do that.

I hurried up and opened the double doors, and I was right — standing outside was my Adan.

He had pants on now, but he was naked on his upper body, and I couldn’t help but swoon when my

gaze fell on his ripped abs, which he always flexed whenever I stared at them.

I slipped out of the room and closed the door behind me so I wouldn’t wake Patrea up.

Then I wrapped my arms around his neck and gave him a big hug, even though his naked torso was

covered in blood.

“Did you miss me?”

His deep baritone voice sent shivers down my spine as his hands moved inside the back of my shirt,

his calloused palms brushing against my skin.

“I did!”

I replied as I pulled away from hugging him and cupped his face to give him a peck on his lips.

“How did it go? Did you…?”

“Yup.He’s dead.We ripped his heart as well as his head from his body before I burned Patrea’s house.”

Lucius answered nonchalantly and it was only then that I noticed him leaning his back on the walls

beside my door.

“You what? Oh, my Goddess, how about her things?”

My eyes widened as I glared at Lucius.

“Do you think she will need those?” He chuckled.

“Of course! Every female wanted to keep their personal things and all the trinkets and souvenirs…”

“Really? How come you only have a small backpack if females are like that?” Adan asked.

“I have nothing, to begin with except my opal stone, which is gone now.”

“I have it.Someone found it…and I kept it safe.” Adan said, and I knew my eyes might be sparkling

looking at the way Adan was smiling back at me.

Oh, Goddess, I couldn’t help but swoon over this one.

“Thank you…” I told him.

“No…Thank you…”

Adan’s eyes changed color and dilated to black, and my eyes widened as Beast made his presence

known.

Only then did I notice Angel prancing around in my head like there was no enchantment in the tower.

My mouth dropped open as my eyes shifted from him to Lucius and back to him.

“How come I can feel Angel and Beast?”

“Lucius lifted off the demon enchantment suppressing the other halves of supernatural beings at this

tower,” Adan answered.

“Except the dungeons below.I couldn’t risk that since most of the prisoners there, have a counterpart as

well, stronger than my demons.” Lucius added.

“No wonder the sparks are stronger! Thank you!”

“He thinks it would make you like coming here more.”

Adan chuckled as he tucked a loose strand of my hair behind my ear.

“I thought you were kicking me away from here completely,” I told Lucius.

“I am, but this tower is yours too, Lucija.You and Stone, and your kids can come here anytime you

want.”

“My kids…No.”

I shook my head.

“Lucija…What do you mean no?”Lucius asked.

“You’re free to visit us, Lucius.But I have to think about whether I want to be here again.I’m pretty sure

you can manage this whole place without me.I have never been really a part of this world.”

“Are you abandoning your demon side?”

“That’s always been the plan.I just need to find out how.But I guess, leaving it stagnant for some time

would make me more of a shifter than a demon.But I don’t know.I don’t want to live forever and see

everyone around me die.And then what? I’ll be just right here.Selene told me once that once a shifter

dies, their souls go back to the moon, and she would give them another chance to go back to the world

and find their mates all over again.So I’m sure I want to fall in love with Adan again, even if I can’t

remember this present life.And going back to the moon, I am hoping I can see my mom and stepfather

again.”

I didn’t know why all of a sudden I blurted these all out.

Maybe because I was now seeing the possibilities of these dreams.

But then I felt Adan stiffen beside me as his face went blank.

“Are you okay?” I asked, with worries flitting in my eyes.

“Yes.Let’s go home and discuss about this demon side.”

He smiled as he rubbed his palm on my arm.

“Don’t forget that your blood made Stone a demon as well.He’s also part of this demon world you want

to abandon.” Lucius stated.

“I said I’m not sure yet.Of course, I want to be wherever Adan will be.”

Adan’s arms wrapped around me as his lips pressed against the crown of my head and I coiled my

arms around his body.

“We’re going home.”

He murmured against my hair.

“Yes, we are.We just need to let Patrea sleep for a while.She’s exhausted.”

“She doesn’t need to go now.This tower is big if she wants a place to…”

Lucius said, but I cut him off right away.

“She’s not staying, Lucius.She has Althea now, and she told me how she looked forward to starting a

new life with her.Imagine having to live down here for decades, and now she’s so excited for a normal

life.”

“I see…”

Lucius smiled.

“I can transport her and you back now, so when she wakes up, she can see Althea.”

“Oh, but I think she wants to talk with you first,” I added.

“I can always go and find her.” He answered.

“Are you sure? We can wait until she wakes up.Will you be okay here without us?”

Lucius’ laughter echoed around us as he slipped a hand inside his jeans pocket.

“I always managed on my own, Lucija.”

“You still owe me about the queen you want to have.”

I reminded him.

“We will see…”

“I want to meet her.So, that’s one reason for me to come back here.”

“Do you want to talk?”

Adan’s solemn voice interrupted us, and I saw Lucius shake his head.

“I’m just a flick of the fingers away.

Give me a visit any time of the day.

Just as long as you don’t scare anyone off, you’re welcome in my territory, except in my bedroom.”

Adan said and his last words made me giggle.

“I’ll surely do so,” Lucius replied.

“l count on that.I might not be as powerful as the rest of your brothers, but I’m a hell of a lot better than

them as a brother.”

“Fuck that! You killed Lucien, and you pulled off stunts to lure him, and you think you’re still weaker

than them? Or is this where you want someone to boost your ego?”

Lucius mocked him.

“I think the last one.”

Adan chuckled before he extended a hand to Lucius.

“I would want to stay for a while, but I’m sure Blade, Collin, and Kingston might be too harassed by now

by my family with Sheena’s existence there.”

Lucius took his hand and shook it before he let me wrapped my arms around him and hugged him

tightly.

“Thank you…”

I murmured to my brother.

Lucius patted my back before he pulled away.

“Come back, Lucija.Just a visit will be enough for me..”

My eyes watered as I nodded my head.

“I never liked the underworld, but I don’t know why I’m teary-eyed right now.”

“Perhaps it’s because you finally got what you’ve wanted since you were eleven?” He said this while

flashing me his devilish grin.

I nodded my head as the tears trickled down my face.

“Thank you for keeping your promise, King Lucius.I hope you find someone to spend eternity with

because eternity alone sucks. So go get that queen you want.”

Lucius didn’t reply, but he smiled at me.

“You can both go ahead, and I’ll take care of Patrea and send her back. I just need the exact place

where you want me to place her.”

I told Lucius the exact location of one of the guest rooms in the packhouse, the one near where Althea

slept before.

“So this is it. Come visit us.” Adan stated.

“I will.”

Lucius nodded his head as he turned my door knob, while Adan’s arms wrapped around my body as he

stood behind me.

I was confused as to how we would teleport directly to the packhouse when Lucius was already about

to step inside my bedroom, but I didn’t have the time to ask as my body was sucked into limbo – and

the last thing I saw was the sadness in Lucius’ eyes as he turned his body around to walk inside my

room.
