072- The Bond Between Us
LUCY.
I had removed all traces of blood from almost all parts of his body except those near his wounds and cuts. I didn’t want to touch them, as I didn’t want to wake him up if I ended up hurting him. I wanted him to rest and gain his energy back.
I couldn’t explain what I was feeling at the moment. Never in my wildest imagination did I think Adan would end up looking like this. He had always been so strong that I felt no one could hurt him, and seeing him so vulnerable while he slept was breaking my heart.
I caused him this. If he didn’t meet me, maybe he was still okay, living like a god
in his own world.
‘But then he’ll never be this happy.’ Angel reminded me.
‘Do you think he’s still happy? Maybe he regrets following me here. I don’t understand what I did wrong for him to suffer like this because of me?’
Angel didn’t answer. She must be saving her energy, but I didn’t mind at all. I
knew she didn’t have the answer either.
I was torn between having Adan around me and sending him back to the human realm. Up until now, I had no idea what my father wanted from him, but if he found a way to hurt Adan without me feeling any pain, I knew he would not stop hurting him.
I just hoped he didn’t find a way to break the bond; if he did, I should have felt it
the way I felt a rope tightening around my heart when Althea connected me to
him.
Speaking of Althea, I needed to stop my
father from hunting her. I needed to do something, I just couldn’t let him hurt. anyone, especially Adan, to make me follow his command. But the problem was that, up until now, he hadn’t told me. a thing about what he wanted me to do next. He just kept disappearing
hunting Althea without bothering to speak with me.
I let my fingers run gently along my mate’s face, letting the sparks give me strength and hope that one day all of the
pain would be over and I would get to
enjoy being Adan’s mate and spend our
life together. I just wanted a simple life where I got to love him without any complications like this.
But I knew that as much as I was hoping
for that – reality was already slapping me
hard in the face. I wondered if being a demon meant I would be treading this world alone, like my father, like Lucius,
like many of my siblings.
I lowered my body and lay on my side beside Adan, being careful that I was not touching any part of him before I closed my eyes and sent a silent prayer to Selene.
‘Selene, I know I am not worthy of your attention, but I hope you still remember the little girl you visited in this realm once. Although I have more pain in my chest now, it is still me. I’m still Lucy. Before, my only worry was if I would ever find my mate, the one you destined for
me and if he would like me. I found the
answer already, and I am beyond grateful for what you gave me. Adan. He’s just perfect, even if he is annoying at times and grumpy, he is still perfect in my eyes.
I was just wondering if you would let me
keep him. Because I really like him. I
loved him. Please help me. I don’t know what to do anymore…’
My hands went to my chest as I clutched my cloth while tears trickled down my face. I was trying to be tough, but beneath the facade of being a demon, I am just a girl hurting for the way life was throwing things my way.
I just wanted to be free to love Adan. Was I asking too much?
My body shook as I cried my heart out. I let my emotions flood out of me, but I stifled the sound of my cries because I didn’t want to wake him up. I didn’t want
him to see me like this.
Cry, Lucy. Cry.
After this, I would no longer cry. I would be tougher. And I would face whatever life
had in store for me – head-on.
I remained in my position, just staring at Adan for quite a while until I decided it was enough and I needed to take action.
