126 - One Step At A Time LUCY.
I went for a quick shower and put on some sexy underwear, hoping that by the time I stepped out of the
bathroom, Adan would be in bed, splayed out naked, waiting for me, only to be disappointed as there
was no trace of him inside the room.
I tried to send him a mindlink, but he shut off his mind, both to our demon and to the wolf’s link.
When I couldn’t wait anymore, I slipped on a pair of tight jeans and a regular shirt I had in his closet.
I owned almost nothing, but maybe I could ask Adan to come with me to buy clothes.
But the thing was, I still didn't have any money.
I remembered Lucius telling me one time that I could just summon money in my hand, but I needed to
say where I wanted the money to come from.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t work.It didn't have to be specific, and no names were required - it could simply
be a bank or a boutique.But I wanted to play around.
‘Vault of Alpha Ethan.Ten thousand"
I murmured in my mind as I laid my hand up.
And just like that, a bundle of hundreds appeared in my palm.
"Wow! Amazing."
I wondered if every bad deed I committed would taint my soul.
‘Of course"
Angel snorted in my head.
‘You know, you can simply ask Adan for money, and I’m sure he will give you his vault, his wallet, even
all his property"
‘Do you think so?’ I giggled as I combed my hair.
‘Stop messing with your demon power in the wrong way"
‘Yes, my guardian angel.I was just trying.I’m not doing it again unless I have to"
‘And what are these "have to" situations?’ Angel asked, and I could see her squinting her eyes at me.
‘Now that I have the capacity to get money, I’m thinking about the orphanage"
‘What do you mean? You want to steal from the orphanage?’ ‘No. I want to make it a better place for
the pups there.Help Stella.I don't like Manuel, but somehow he was the reason I met Adan, so I guess I
could forgive him.And maybe if I can help the orphanage, I can tell him to treat the kids there nicely or I
will cut him off"
‘Oh, Lucy! I’m sure the pups and Stella would love it if you could make things better for them.But can
you try telling our mate instead of stealing? Because I was certain that when you stole the money from
Alpha Ethan, it jolted me like an electric shock"
‘You're lying, right? You just don’t want me to use it"
‘ ‘I will never lie to you.When you used your power to put clothes on you and Adan, I felt nothing.But
this last thing you did, I felt something"
‘Oh, Goddess, if I entertain bad deeds, it means I am hurting you?’ ‘I’m not really sure.But maybe we
should be careful"
‘I'm sorry, Angel.I won't do it again.Do you think it will help if we return the money?
‘I really don’t know.But do you even know how to return it?’
‘No.Lucius never told me about that.Or maybe since it’s here, I'll just use it to buy clothes for the pups
and not for me"
I opened the drawer of the nearest table and slipped the cash there.I have to tell Adan about it later.
‘Good idea"
‘Great.Now, I promise you, I’ll be a good girl.No more stealing, except kisses from Adan"
I giggled at my last words before checking myself in the mirror.Now, I just needed to find him.I
wondered what was taking him so long.I walked out of the suite and headed directly to the stairs.
By the time I was on the second floor, I heard hurried little footsteps and saw Althea with glassy eyes
as she headed for the corridor leading to her room.
"Althea!" I called after her.
I saw her wipe her face with her hands before she turned around and flashed me a smile, but it didn't
reach her eyes.
"Hey! Are you okay?" I asked, and my eyebrows furrowed as I approached her.
She bobbed her head, almost excessively so.
"Look at me."
I held her chin and titled her head up.
"Are you crying?"
"I just want to be alone." She replied in a soft voice.
"I will let you be alone, but tell me what happened.I’m sure whatever it is, it will make you feel better if
you let it out."
"I’m not sure I’m ready to tell anyone."
"If you walk in there, and Patrea sees you, she’ll be worried and go on full mommy goose instinct.You
don’t want that, right? For her to chase after the one that made you cry."
"Blade said he doesn’t love me.Not even like."
She blurted out of nowhere.
"What?"
I looked around and coiled an arm around her shoulder before I led her to one of the guest rooms along
the corridor.
"Did he tell you that?" I asked as I closed the door behind us.
She sat down on the couch and tilted her head up.She was fighting her tears from falling.
"Well, I didn’t see him last night after you arrived, and he wasn’t there outside either this morning.So I
activate the locator spell I placed on him."
"You put a locator spell on him? Does he know?"
"No.He didn’t.I put it secretly on him when he said he would leave the coven.I panicked.I wanted to
know if he was safe or not."
"So the days you were separated, you knew where he was."
"when I activate it, then yes.So I would know that he’s just nearby on some days."
"Okay, then what happened today?"
"I activated it so 1 would know where he was, and it led me to Alpha Stone’s office."
I was not able to stop myself from inhaling deeply because she wasn’t wrong - Blade was with Adan.
"So I went there, and the exact moment I was there, Alpha Stone asked him if he loved me. He
doesn't.He would never lie to Alpha Stone, right? He said he doesn’t love me, that I was too young, and
that we will never agree on many things.And then Alpha Stone told him to give me a chance, but
instead of agreeing, he told the Alpha he was selfish.I didn’t want to hear more.Yes, it was selfish of the
Alpha to ask him to give me a chance when he wanted to do nothing with me.I was halfway up here
when I thought I would go and give him a piece of his shit too.So I went back, and I hope I didn’t."
"Althea..."
I had no idea what to say.
Her shoulders began to shake as dark mist covered her feet, but she stopped them right away and
composed herself.
"I want to know what you heard...only if you trust me enough to share it," I told her.
"He mentioned his mate’s name.Sol.Her name is Sol.And how he felt guilty at times because I’m taking
Sol’s memories away from his mind.I know I am confused about what I feel about Blade, but for him, he
doesn’t want this second chance bond.I am destroying his memory of his first mate.And the attraction
he felt for me was just the bond, nothing more.He told Alpha Stone, he wishes he had never met me."
I walked toward her and sat beside her, my hands cupping her cheeks as I urged her to look at me.
"I will talk with Adan so I can know the full story.What you heard were just snippets, perhaps there’s
more to it."
Althea shook her head.
"He told me he doesn’t want to take the mark off because his wolf might die.He doesn’t need me,
Lucy.Only his wolf does.It’s okay.I’d been alone for years, but now I have Mama Patrea and I have
you.I will be okay.I’m sure there’s someone out there who can love me, and just me, so I don’t have to
share him with someone from his past."
I snaked my arms around Althea and hugged her.
"I'll be here.We will take it one step at a time."
