Chapter 76 – Devil Spawn?!

“Hey, Luce?” Badru entered her private hospital room first. I followed close behind.

The room was dimmed with the blinds closed, just as our mother’s had been. A tiny figure huddled in the bed on their side, the blankets pulled up over their head. For a second, I could have been fooled into thinking Lucy was still asleep if not for a quiet little sniffle and a movement of her elbow.

“You in there?” I gently jostled her shoulder.

“I really wanted to believe all of it was a nightmare… but it isn’t, is it?” The lump spoke under the hospital blanket.

“No, I’m sorry Lucy,” Badru pulled up an armchair to the side of the bed. “Do you remember much?”

“I don’t remember going to bed this morning after the shift I covered,” her face poked out over the blanket hem, revealing a pair of red-rimmed hazel eyes. “I remember one of you somehow breaking into my room, the one with whiskers, so I’m guessing Badru…”

I snickered a little at her bold sass.

“…Please tell me he didn’t leave me… the doctor wouldn’t tell me anything. She kept saying I needed to rest-”

“He didn’t,” I cut off her meek sob. “Konstantin wouldn’t. Whoever took our mate,” my fists clenched. “Took yours.”

“Who? Who could do this?”

Badru side-eyed me, ‘should we tell her? It’s not as though we have any proof.’

“You think it’s Finley, don’t you?” Her eyes flitted back and forth between the two of us.

“We don’t know for su-”

“Don’t use that voice,” Lucy interrupted me, sitting bolt upright and crossing her arms defiantly. “It’s what the nurse and doctor used on me like I was a fragile little girl, and I’m not.”

“I think our mother-in-law’s telling you off,” Badru snickered, drawing a blushing frown from Lucy.

‘She really is the mom friend,’ Aasim huffed a gentle surge of laughter.
