The Dragon Prince’s Forbidden Affair

CHAPTER 22.0 Adopted but Family

In the middle of the night, I heard a knock on my door. I walked to it and opened it to see Lexus. “Can’t sleep?”

Lexus walked in. “Nope, you have room for one more. In your bed.” He clarified.

I yawned. “I do but can’t you just smoke? Couldn’t you just smoke last time too?” I sat down on my bed. “I heard it puts you right to sleep.

Lexus sat on the other side of my bed. “Yeah, but I’d rather sleep with you because this’ll give me a lot better sleep than smoking would.”

I turned the light off. “I officially met Gray earlier today.”

Lexus took his slides off and laid down. “How did that go?”

“Not the best, he was upset that he’s not the holder.” I thought of how his disappointed face looked. “Cade’s being a great brother and I’m sure my relationship with Gray will get better.”

“But?” Lexus asked.

“I miss my adoptive siblings. I was raised with them and was kind of close with them. I even helped raise the youngest a lot.” I sighed. “They’ve always felt like they’re my real family. I miss them so much.”

Lexus got up. “Then let’s go visit them now.”
