PATREA.

My body was sucked into limbo as I held Alpha Adan tighter to make sure he wouldn’t fall somewhere, but for some reason, I still ended up landing in the middle of the cold, forest ground alone.

“Shit! Where is he now?” I groaned, my eyes scanning the whole area as I placed a hand on my hip bone before stretching my back.

I landed on my butt, and I was thinking sending me back to the human realm might also mean I would be back at my real age. I had no idea what year it was already, but if my calculation was right, I should be almost seventy years old now.

And if my body were older, the fall might

render me immobile. Apart from the pain in my ass and the slight discomfort in my back, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I felt the same as I did there, except the air here was colder.

Good grief! It was snowing, and I had no thick clothes to shield me from the cold.

I stood up from the ground and rubbed my palms together, and I noticed my hands were still the same no sign of aging, which was a good thing, but I would check on everything later. I needed warmth because the chill in the air was

slowly making its way onto my skin.

somebody appeared right before me. He was so close that I instinctively backed

away and landed on my bum again.

stood up abruptly as I glared at Lucius, who reached out his hand to help me up,

but I ignored it.

“Dammit! You and your father had no regard for space or privacy!”

The demon royal in front of me smiled. sheepishly as he brushed a hand through his curly hair, red tints creeping up his cheeks. Was he blushing?

“I just pictured where I would end up when I left the portal. I didn’t know you would be in the exact same spot.”

“What do you want?” I snapped at him

while rubbing my arms. I hoped he would

leave me alone so I could do my spells. because the cold was no joke after staying for decades in such warm surroundings.

“Are you cold?” He asked.

“Yes. Unfortunately, I don’t have a fire

within me. Do you mind going on your way so I can warm myself up?”

He didn’t reply, but I saw the small flick of his fingers, and the next thing I knew, I

“Yes. This feels nice. Oh, spirits!” I
