LUCY.

I didn’t mean to kill the dungeon keeper, but the moment I saw Adan chained up to the wall, rage surged within my body. I wanted to crush everyone around us, and the keeper was the closest thing in my grasp.

“Then I’ll keep killing anyone that touches him,” I answered nonchalantly as I moved in front of where Adan was seated.

Adan wasn’t making any noise while I was dealing with the keepers except when he tried to growl at the other prisoners who were gawking and whistling at me earlier.

He was quiet – either he was scared or my mate was fascinated. I was assuming it was

the latter. Adan was not the type of man who was easily frightened.

“I’m warning you, Lucija. You will face my

wrath if…”

I didn’t hear the rest of Lucien’s words as

sparks ignited from my ankle to every part of my body, centering on my core. Adan’s fingers were skimming against my skin in such a sensual way that if he didn’t stop soon, everyone would smell my arousal.

“Remove his chain, and I promise you there will be no more casualties from your keepers.

“Lucija, you don’t have any right to

negotiate.”

“I surely do. Look at this.” I stepped

forward, and although I missed Adan’s

touch on my skin, I needed to take action.

I turned my body around and gripped Adan’s forearm before tugging it hard, away from the wall. The chain clattered. Adan

didn’t even flinch when the shackle

tightened on his skin and the chain pulled his wrist back, but I faked a gasp before I

showed Lucien my wrist. A bruise formed on it. “This is cruelty toward a royal princess. punishable by death or revocation of the

“[You are trying to outsmart me.]” He spoke to me in our demon tongue, and I assumed

he didn’t want Adan to hear us.
