LUCY.

Title of the document

I was worried about where my brother was. After I spoke with Patrea, I told Adan I would visit Lucius in Kalmerus, and Adan being Adan, he didn’t let me go alone.

It was easier to travel back and forth to the underworld now that Adan had requested a portal just behind the packhouse that would lead us directly to the outside of the tower. Lucius didn’t even hesitate to provide the portal. His only condition was to make sure Luther, my son, would be introduced to Kalmerus as early as possible.

Unfortunately, Lucius was not in Kalmerus, and his righthand demon had no idea where he went, but he said Lucius had been popping in and out of Kalmerus in the last two cycles.

“He’s here,” Adan told me while nuzzling his nose into my neck.

I was sitting on his lap at his office while I waited for him to finish signing the papers that he wanted to send to Blade’s pack by tomorrow.

Adan never wanted to build alliances with any packs, as our pack thrived even without them. But Blade was still struggling — not that he didn’t know how to be an Alpha, but after the death of his brother and him taking over again, most of his constituents were still not warming up to him.

And knowing Blade, he was not one to bend his knees and bow down to anyone else either. So Adan had to extend help to make sure no more of his people would request a transfer or move out into human territory.

“What do you mean, he’s here?” I asked as I placed his hands on my thighs, and he began caressing them sensually.

“Your brother. I can feel his aura.”

“How is it possible that you can and I can’t?” I asked again, tilting my head back and raising my eyebrows as I caught his gaze.

“He was shutting off his aura to you. I guess he wanted me to know he’s here to let me know he’s visiting Luther.”

“And you said earlier he was here yesterday too?”

“Yes.”

I stood up from his lap and held his jaw before kissing him softly. “I’ll be back. I just need a word with him.”

“Let me know if you need my help.” He smiled c*ockily at me while his hand slipped under my dress and brushed against my thigh before going up to cup and squeeze my ass.

“Etiam, mi rex.” [Yes, my king.] I replied and smiled at him before transporting my body just outside of Luther’s room.

I pushed the door open and found my son’s crib empty, but I wasn’t worried this time. I saw the Omega who was supposed to keep an eye on Luther, sleeping in her bed, and I knew that Lucius must have stunned her. Clotilde wouldn’t leave the room when Lucius asked her to, so he would always do this. Then he would make her forget he was even here when she woke up.

I closed the door behind me carefully and walked toward the open balcony. Lucius was sitting on the stone railings, and I was sure Luther was on his lap as I could hear my son’s nonstop, incoherent chatter.

I stopped beside him, propped my elbows against the railings, and rested my chin on my hands, cupping my cheeks. “Are you okay?”

“Yes.” He answered curtly without even looking at me.
