070 – A Friend or A Foe?
LUCY.
My body jolted awake, making my eyes snap open as my heart thudded loudly in my chest. I sat up from lying down with
my hands clutching my sheets tightly as I
looked around.
I’m still in the underworld, and
something doesn’t feel right.
‘Lucius?’ He was my only connection in this place.
‘Damn it, Lucija! I’ve been trying to wake
you up for an hour now!’ He snapped at
me, and I knew it had something to do
with Adan.
‘Where is he? What’s going on?’
‘No time to explain! Kosior dungeon,
now!’
Oh, Goddess! Oh, Goddess!
I shoved the blanket off my body and grabbed my robe, wrapping it around me before I closed my eyes and flicked my fingers, hoping against hope that I would end up at the right place.
In seconds, I found myself on the stairs.
that would lead me to Adan’s cell.
The smell of blood, sweat, and flesh being burned was swirling around me, making my jaw twitch. I wanted to scream, but I composed myself. I needed to think and act logically, but I swore to the Goddess
that I would kill whoever was responsible if something happened to Adan.
I didn’t waste any more time as I ran toward his cell. The blood I was smelling wasn’t ordinary blood – it was his blood, the same blood I was feasting on last
night, but mixed with something else, something so strong that it was making

We should have felt something if they hurt him.’ Angel spoke in my head, and
she was right.
But then we were in the underworld, where everything could be changed with the flick of a finger. I had no idea how powerful my father was, but I was errified – not for me, but for Adan.
I ran and walked until I reached the cells
where he was being held. My mouth dropped open as my legs buckled at the sight of him. I couldn’t stop myself from falling onto my knees, but Lucius was quick to catch me, or my entire body would have stumbled on the dingy floor.

important to me.
Nothing matters now but Adan.
I steadied my feet and rushed toward him, dropping to my knees as I looked at his horrible condition.
He was unconscious, but he was
breathing and his heartbeat was normal. His body was in a coiled position with his back on me.
I could tell he’d been whipped because his back was totally broken. There were too many gashes and cuts. Every part of him. was covered with blood, and I had no idea where to touch him because I was sure
these hurt like hell.
But why didn’t I feel anything?
Tears were trickling down my face as rage surged within me. “Did Father do this?”
“Yes.”
“Why?”
“I had no idea. I just went to look for him and saw him whipping him. I was too late already, he just kept hitting him.”
“Why didn’t I feel anything?”
“I don’t know.”
“Did he scream? Did he ask him to stop?”
“No. Not even once. He was keeping the pain to himself.”
