056 – Hell Breaks Loose
LUCY.
Althea opened her bedroom and let me in. I placed the tray of food on the round table at the far end before I faced her.
“Did you rest?” My eyes scanned her room, and her bed was cluttered with big, old- looking books.
She shook her head and pointed to the books
on her bed. “I want to make sure I’ll be
doing the right thing.”
“But I thought you needed to rest.”
“This is rest for me – one with my books and channeling the spirits.” She giggled softly while I bit my bottom lip as I nodded my head.
“Are you sure about the additional request? And the Alpha still doesn’t know?” She
asked.
“I’m sure. And yes, he doesn’t know anything.”
“He might kill me.”
“He won’t. I will protect you from him.”
“Are you sure you will defy him if he asks you not to shield me?”
“That won’t be the first time I will defy him. But I know you can protect yourself. But I want you to be honest with me, Althea. Am I putting you in danger with my request?”
“If you had no plan to unbind yourself, then no. I won’t be in danger.”
“However, you mentioned that this ritual is against nature.”
“All supernaturals were born against nature.
We are the result of centuries of wars and
disagreements between the gods. This magic
would not exist if it could not be used. Some
people were just abusing it.”
“Do you think I’m abusing it?”
“You’re protecting your Alpha. In the same way, I’m asking you to kill Patrea in order to free her spirits. Killing her is going against
nature. We are not the ones to decide when a
person should die or remain alive. So we’re just in the same boat.”
“Are we going to get punished?”
“The underworld would never punish you.”
“And you?”
“I’m doing it for a good purpose. I’m not binding you together, so I can kill one and, in effect, kill the other as well. If you get my
point.”
“I do. It makes me feel a bit better.”
“But you have to be ready. Because once I
bind
you, you will feel a connection within
you and the Alpha, and he might sense it.”
I hissed and smoothed my hands over my
hair.
“That’s the reason I had to do the shield
first, so whatever happens, if he stops me in the middle and throws me out, the shield is already in place.”
“Thank you… I will make sure he won’t interrupt you.”
“And there must be just two souls, not including mine, in the area where I will do the ritual. Otherwise, your life could be tied to anyone around you.”
I nodded my head. “You should eat. You need energy for tonight.”
She ignored my words and instead asked something else. “Where is Blade?”
A smile curled on my lips. “You miss him…”
“I think I overdid it this morning. He’s
probably super mad at me for being childish.

“Don’t worry, he will get over it.”
“He was ignoring me the whole morning, and I thought I’d joke around just to get a reaction from him. And oh boy, I did get one! “Althea pouted as she crossed her arms against her chest. She looked like an eighteen -year-old having a boy problem, not the
fierce witch I met.
“If him, ignoring you, bothers you, why don’t you give him a chance?”
“He’s twelve years older than me.”
“And Alpha Stone is eight years older than me. And it’s working fine. After all, look at you. Look at the power and maturity you hold, do you think an 18-year-old guy can match up to you?”
