116 - One More Thing To Deal With ADAN STONE.
"Speaking of healing...
I have many things to ask about him being a demon, but I want to know, how in the hell did you heal
Lucius?"
Lucy’s head tilted in my direction, and our gazes met.
This was it.
I had to tell her, but I was not sure if I was ready to let her know.
And just when I thought I had no way out, Lucius’ demons appeared in the cave, and all attention was
now drawn to them.
‘Did I just save your ass?’ Lucius asked in my head.
So I was right — he did summon the demons to distract Lucy.
‘ Thank you"
‘Just repaying you for killing Lucien and giving me his heart.
Knowing Lucy, whatever deal you made, I was sure she would go ballistic.
Better you tell her that somewhere else or she might blow up this whole place"
Lucius added.
‘I want one more payment" I told him, ignoring everything else he said.
He was looking at the other side of the cave, but I saw him raise his eyebrows.
‘Guillermo.I want to kill him" I told him when he didn’t say anything.
A smile tugged on his mouth before he turned to look at me, drawing his hand out for a handshake.
"We need to share that one.I'd been itching to skin him alive."
I willed my body to go back to its human form before taking his hand.
"If you give me your word that I will have the first hit, then I’m willing to share."
"I can give you the last hit as well.I just need him to feel my wrath, and then he's all yours." He replied.
"Deal."
We shook hands, and for the first time since I began this journey with Lucius, all the doubt I had in me
about him disappeared.
Before I was able to kill Lucien, while Patrea and Lucy were convincing him about allowing Patrea to
heal him, he was sending me mindlinks to make sure Patrea would be well taken care of.
And as a final favor to him, I would invite Patrea to the underworld so he could see her while he was in
his ghostly demon form.
His last wishes finally convinced me that there was light inside him and that he was falling in love with
the witch.
"Are we going to watch them clean up this whole place, or can we go back to the tower? I’m exhausted,
and I’m sure Patrea is as well."
Lucija asked as she walked and stopped beside me, and my hands automatically snaked around her
waist, pulling her closer.
Goddess, can I just take her home now?
"Are we safe? Are you sure none of your father’s demons will come after us?" Patrea asked.
"The demons’ loyalty shifts the moment the previous ruler dies.Now, to whom it would shift depends on
a variety of factors, but since I was the one who ate out his heart, my command would be superior to
everyone else in Kalmerus."
"Hail the king of Kalmerus! Can Adan and I go home now?" Lucija shrieked, and the demons’ attention
was drawn to us.
"Lucius and I have one more thing to handle.But we’re going home soon, Lucy. I promise." I told her as
I pressed a kiss on her forehead.
She tilted her head as she positioned herself in front of me, her arms coiling around my neck as she
caught my eyes.
"One more thing to handle?"
"Guillermo..." Lucius replied.
"He's still alive?" Lucy asked.
"Yes.And I’ll make him pay for touching and assaulting you in the hallway."
"You saw that?"
"Yes.I was there.It was me and Patrea that took him away from you."
Lucy slammed her body against mine as she hugged me tightly.
"I’m sorry, Adan.I didn’t want to kiss him but..."
"I know.I’m not mad at you."
My hand smoothed over her hair as I pressed my mouth into the crown of her head.
"Thank you..."
"Do you remember what I did to Cesar? It was nothing compared to what I'm going to give Guillermo
this time."
I informed her as I squeezed her body tightly against mine.
The sparks had returned, dancing magnificently throughout my body, signaling that Beast had finally
awakened.
"Do what you need to do.Just come back to me after.I just want to go home so we can start again."
She murmured against my naked chest.
A smile tugged on my mouth as I closed my eyes, reveling in the last sentence she uttered, but she
might have taken my silence for another thing.
Her body stiffened as she pulled away from hugging me, her eyes rounding as she tried to explain.
"Of course, only if you want to take me.I’m not pushing myself on you.I mean, I’m not saying you have
to take me as your Luna because that’s your choice, but you see, I’m sure Lucius doesn’t want me
here..."
I saw Lucius smile smugly and shake his head before he extended his hand for Patrea to take, and the
moment she took it, they immediately disappeared from the cave, leaving me with Lucy and a few
demons remaining in the cave.
"so I have no place to go back to, so I'll be back as a regular Omega.If you don’t take me as your Luna,
I might have to go back on the Omega Feast and find me a new buyer, or I might take Ethan’s offer
and..."
I didn’t finish her words as my hands cupped her face and crushed my lips against her.I knew she was
trying to outsmart me again to force me to make a deal with her, but she didn’t have to.
This time I would be the one to offer her the Luna title that rightfully belongs to her.
Not just because she was my fated mate, but because I knew even before the mate bond snapped
between us that I would never want any other female to be my mate but her.
I meant that, and I guess following her to the depths of hell was enough to prove that.
"Mine..."
I growled in between our kisses.
This time I was kissing her passionately, with no rush and no pain — just like the sweet kisses I would
always give her before we went to sleep at night.
Lucy moaned seductively.
As our kiss deepened, she wrapped her arms around my neck and raised her body from the ground.
She then snaked her legs around my hips, urging me forward as if she wanted me to take her right
there and then.
And I knew I would.If I could.
But I would not risk losing Guillermo.I needed to deal with him first.
Beast was growling in my head.
He had connected with Angel, and knowing I would be transporting our bodies back to the tower would
mean he might not be able to communicate with her again.
But I had to leave Lucy somewhere she would be safe before I had to face Guillermo.
~~ LUCIUS.
After Adan healed me, I felt renewed.
There was so much energy and power coursing through my body, and I could feel authority brewing in
my aura.
Hades had connected with me a moment ago, and I should be expecting his visit anytime soon.
Hades reaching out to me only meant one thing: the transfer of power was successful, and it was
passed on to me and not Lucija.
I had many questions about the prophecy and my aura, and I had no idea if Hades would give me an
answer or if I would have to seek Orpheus to get it.
But either way, I had to seek answers.
"I mean, I’m not saying you have to take me as your Luna because that’s your choice, but you see, I’m
sure Lucius will not want me here..."
Lucy was speaking in one breath.
After all the strength and power she showed, she was still unsure how she would fit in Adan’s world.
Wasn't it enough that the Alpha went back to hell for her to let her know he wanted her? I shook my
head and extended my hand to Patrea.
I had no idea if she knew what I was trying to imply, but I wanted to take her to the tower and leave the
couple on their own.I wanted a moment with her.
Patrea took my hand, but the smiles she gave me while I was dying were missing from her face again.
Was it because I was well and alive now? Was everything just for show? I shrugged my shoulders and
teleported us back to the tower, specifically to the throne room.
Patrea pulled her hand slowly from my grasp, and I just let out a deep breath before I faced Simon,
who was already waiting for my instructions.
I had ordered the change of the throne seat to my preference as well as the theme of the room and the
hallway leading to it.
Father’s chambers had been destroyed except for his office, where the fiber was located.
I needed it because soon I had to summon all my living demon brothers to officially let them know
about the transfer of power.
After everything had been briefly discussed with Simon, I turned my attention back to the witch, who
was standing a few feet away from me.
"Are you hungry? Or do you want to rest?" I asked as I walked toward her.
"I’m okay.I just want to clean myself.I can go back to my cottage."
"Guillermo is still there.I suggest you stay here until we can settle scores with him."
"I’m not comfortable in this tower.Will Lucy and Adan stay here or are they going back to the human
realm after you deal with Guillermo?"
My heart clenched in pain.She didn’t want to be here, and she probably couldn't wait to get out of here.
"Yes, Stone wants to go back to his pack after we deal with my brother."
"And you?"she asked.
"Me? What do you mean by me?"
"Are you taking us back to the other realm?"
"I can send you all back now without the portal, and I know Adan can also take you all out of here.But I
have to stay.Hades can come anytime, and I also have to make sure the whole of Kalmerus is secure
and there are no uprisings from my demons."
"Just as a king should do..."
A smile graced her lips, and it made my heart stop.
I couldn't help but mirror the same smile that she had, and as much as I wanted to say something, I
found myself speechless.
"I'm glad you made it.That you didn’t die."
She said it out of nowhere, and this time something strange was happening inside my heart.
"will it make you sad if I did?" I just had to ask.
She chuckled before crossing her arms against her chest.
"Well, given that you already set my body and soul free, I shouldn’t be sad anymore.But yes, it will
make me sad if you do."
I was about to ask why when my motherfucker brother-in-law appeared in the thin air with my sister and
broke the magic between me and Patrea.
"I’m ready to go."
Adan grinned as he let go of Lucija, and based on how swollen her lips were, they had a fucking good
kiss, and they didn't care that they just destroyed the only moment I had where Patrea was starting to
open up about me.
"Are we supposed to come with you?" Patrea asked.
"No.They can handle it.We'll stay here." Lucija answered, and I was still furious at them.
"Good.I was hoping I could have a place to clean up and change into something else." She told Lucija.
"I can take care of that." Lucija smiled at her before she turned her body to face Adan again and gave
him a sticky kiss.
After what felt like a million cycles, they finally separated, and she took Patrea away without saying
anything, and I was left standing, contemplating whether I wanted to kill Guillermo first or put Lucija and
Stone in the dungeon to make them pay for interrupting us.
