Chapter 31 : Heavy Handed

*Sasha*

“So, what you're telling me is that that thing might have the power to transport multiple people to some kind of different continent or universe that they're calling the Realm of the Goddess?" Lucas said, giving me an incredulous look.

“Well… yeah," I replied.

Lucas shook his head vigorously. “Nope, nope, nope. You're not touching it ever again. It's far too powerful, whatever its true purpose."

I raised my chin. “You said we'd consult your mother first. I never said I'd never touch it ever again!"

“I'm saying it." Lucas wriggled me off of his lap and snatched up the orb in its protective covering of silk. “I'm putting this back in my bag. I don't want you messing with it, agreed?"

“But–"

“Let's just agree until my mother looks at it. Then we can fight all we want," Lucas sighed.

I ground my teeth but nodded. “Fine. As long as we don't need it before we meet with your mother, I won't touch it."

“What's that supposed to mean?" Lucas's eyes narrowed.

“Well, what if the Goddess is trying to get a hold of me? What if it starts glowing and it wants me to–"

“You're not going anywhere, princess, not again… not if I have anything to do with it," Lucas groused. He stood and headed for the door.

“Hey!" I protested. “We're not done talking!"

“We're done talking," Lucas disagreed.

“But–"

“Take a nap, Sasha… or pack, or do whatever. But do not go near this orb, do you understand me?!" Lucas barked, turning to give me a stern look.

I pouted. I knew I was pouting, and I pouted anyway.

“Don't you give me that face. I know that face. You swear to me you're going to leave the orb alone," Lucas demanded.

I folded my arms over my chest. “As long as it doesn't need me."

Lucas growled under his breath. “Should just throw it in the ocean...."

He turned to go.

“Wait, where are we going in the Light Realm, and when?" I asked.

“Oliver is going to meet us in New Dianny. And we're leaving first thing in the morning. So pack," Lucas said gruffly.

“Lucas Black, you can be such an overbearing asshole sometimes, you know that?" I griped.

That got him to crack a smile. “The worst," he agreed.

“Well, am I under house arrest? I was hoping to see Amanda before we left," I huffed.

Lucas frowned at me. “You're not my prisoner, Sasha. But I would caution you...."

“Great." I walked past Lucas, preceding him through the door. “Don't wait up."

“Sasha!" Lucas protested.

But I was already grabbing my purse. “Ian, I want to go into town. Let's go to the Coffee Bean."

“Yes… ma'am...." Ian replied uncertainly, looking past me.
