048 – The Queens

PATREA.

After I admitted everything to Lucius, he simply moved on from it. I wanted to believe he wasn’t affected at all, but then I saw him with Luther the moment we came to the Mystic Pack, and my insecurities came back again.

I had known from the very beginning — even before there was him and me — that he was already affectionate toward his nephew, and yet a part of me wanted to grieve. He wanted one, and it was something I couldn’t give him.

“If Lucius said it’s okay with him, then it’s okay. I know my own brother. He never sugarcoats his words. And it is what makes both of you click together because you both tell what you feel.” no.vel.e.book Lucy stated that before she stood in front of me, her hands went to my arms, and she gently brushed them. “Don’t let it bother you.”

“But I wish I could give him more,” I said in a soft voice.

Lucy smiled at me, her eyes watering as she let out a warm smile. ” You have given Lucius so much, Patrea. And I can’t thank you enough. I know he can take care of himself, but I’m happy he has you now because you are exactly what he needed. He told me before that the tower seemed empty, but I’m sure it’s not empty anymore.”

“And if there are babies around, it would be a lot lovelier.”

“Oh, Mama. Stop. Let’s not ruin your day.” Althea walked to where Lucy and I were and handed us our glass of wine. “We are here to celebrate Kalmerus and Athwart. And of course, you and Lucius! Baby or not, Lucius loves you.”

We were inside Lucy’s office while Lucius was spending time with Luther and Adan.

I took my glass, as Lucy did before Althea went back to the table to pick up her own.

“For the Queen of Kalmerus and Athwart…” Lucy raised her glass, happiness beaming in her eyes as she looked at me before she added. “My Queen…”

My eyes watered at her generosity.

“To the queen of my heart,” Althea added.

I looked at my granddaughter with pride before I shifted my gaze back and forth between her and Lucy. “And to the queens of my life.

We clinked our glasses together before we took a sip of the sparkling wine.

“Thank you for helping me when I needed help,” I told them. Lucy shook her head. “It was nothing compared to the help you and Althea gave me. I will be forever grateful to both of you, and I will make sure I will do my best to protect you both even if you don’t need it.”

“I’m glad everything worked out for both of you.” Althea smiled as she took another sip. “And I’m so happy I was able to help.”

“You did. Big help, Althea. The bond you created between me and Adan saved him from death.”
