Book 2

Chapter 2 – Deal With The Demon

LUCIUS.

I hid my aura and made myself invisible in the eyes of all the adults in this dining hall before I sat on the empty small chair at the kids’ table.

The kids were able to see me, and since the adults were conversing on their own, they had no idea I was already having fun with their kids as they engaged me in their conversation.

Ever since Lucija became the Luna of the Mystic Pack, Stone’s whole family has learned to accept me as part of theirs. In the beginning, I could feel the awkwardness and the uneasiness in the air whenever I would appear, but after seeing me too many times already within the last six months, they were getting used to my presence.

I get invited to lunch and dinners, which I never decline, as long as Patrea is not there.

I didn’t tell anyone I had no palate. That the food just melted on my tongue, and I had no idea what sweet, sour, or spicy tasted like.

When it came to taste, all I could taste were the females I licked and sucked. And I was sure food didn’t taste like that, or I would crave it.

But then tonight, Patrea decided to bust me in front of Stone’s family. I almost laughed out loud when they all realized I was faking it when I told them the food was delicious. But then I should get credit for trying to make them feel good — not all demons could do that.

I tried to stay low-key and just watch them while entertaining the kids until my mother fucker brother-in-law threatened me that he would not allow Luther, my only nephew — the only one that I acknowledged — to enter the underworld if I decided not to show up tonight.

Stone and I had a mutual dislike for each other. He was arrogant. He thought he ruled the world, but he only ruled his own territory. But my sister Lucija wanted him, so I tried to tolerate him. And I believed he was trying to tolerate me as well.

But we’re making it work.

Even if we never really liked each other, I knew there was no one else better for Lucija and Luther than him. O

And it was enough for me that he trusted me to hold his son and promised me that he would introduce Luther to the underworld when the right time came.

So I knew that if he threatened to take Luther away from me, I knew he could do it.

So here I was, raising a white flag and appearing before them, sitting on the only empty seat around the table — which happened to be beside Patrea.

“How are you doing, Lucius?” Petra’s voice came out soft, and I was not able to stop my head from snapping in her direction.

Was it her asking me?

I stared at her for a few seconds before her eyebrows raised and she pushed a forkful of meat into her mouth. My eyes focused on her plump lips as she chewed her food slowly, and I felt a thirst I hadn’t felt in a long time, and it made me lose my sense of time.

“Was my question that hard?” She asked again after she was done chewing her meat, her eyes not leaving mine.

A smirk formed on my mouth before I licked my lips and shifted my body slightly in her direction, my hand still holding my fork. “I thought you didn't want to hear anything about the underworld?”

“Well, I thought I asked about you, and not the underworld.” She emphasized the ‘you’.
