"Hi, sorry for the long wait. Lucia is apparently having her period right now, so she had a little tummy ache in the bathroom. I hope you guys didn't wait too long here."Elijah murmured kindly with a slight smile on his face, right at Harrison and Felicity who were enjoying their meal on the table, along with the other guests."Oh, of course it's no problem, Mr. Elijah. We're enjoying our meal, so we don't feel like things are taking too long." Harrison quickly replied."Good then..."Elijah replied before finally turning around and looking at me who was standing right behind him now. I nodded my head in a vague gesture to Elijah. Then after that, Elijah also nodded his head with a faint movement like I did earlier.TingTingTingTingElijah quickly smacked the empty wine glass in his left hand there. I fell silent as I looked right at all the guests who had stopped their activities and started looking at Elijah and me in turn now. Not long after, Elijah lowered both hands, and plac
"You just need to concentrate on your own thoughts, Lucia. Focus your mind with the magic power you have now." Josiah explained there."But how can I concentrate? I mean, I've never been able to concentrate too much to be able to do something as important as this magic power."I looked right at Josiah and Emrys who were standing in front of me right now. I had even changed into my normal clothes, and cleaned myself up beforehand. So that I really feel very ready to practice my magic power right now. After all, now that I think about it, it seems like I should be able to master all my magic powers, so that I can help myself feel calm, and be able to control myself in the face of anything that might happen in the future."You just need to close your eyes, and focus the center of your mind with the magic power in your entire body. Do it like this."Emrys immediately closed his eyelids there, and pointed his palms forward, then fell silent for now. I kept paying close attention to how con
I was silent with my eyes open very wide now. The look in my eyes as well as the expression on my face signaled shock now. I myself could not hide my surprise from the expression on my face. I looked at Elijah in front of me, who was not even looking at me right now. Elijah himself even looked as surprised as I did. Elijah's head was looking right at the left side of his body there. I, on the other hand, did not dare to look to my right."Lucia... you..."Elijah mumbled with his pronunciation unclear there. Elijah seemed to be stammering and had absolutely no idea what he was going to say.I lowered my right hand in a slow motion, and began to brace myself to turn my head to the right of my body now. And there, right on the boulder that was deliberately placed inside the backyard of The Bloodlust Moon Pack long ago, a large hole appeared right in the center of the boulder now. I could even clearly see a puff of smoke coming out of the hole created in the center of the boulder there."
I had been practicing for almost a day to be able to control the magic power that I had now, together with Emrys and Josiah. During that time, I myself had managed to feel the presence of the witch's soul inside my body. That's a very good sign. I can even feel how the magic power is flowing inside all parts of my body now. It's just that I still feel lacking.Considering that my wolf soul still hasn't appeared yet. My wolf soul is still happily sleeping in the farthest point of my body right now. And I still don't even know how to wake her up from her long slumber. I had even tried to think, and read many books to find a way, but none of them worked.I fell silent while sighing quite loudly there once again. I was now in my room alone. My room and Elijah's room were still together until now. Elijah himself hadn't even come back and entered this room, ever since I decided to practice magic together with Emrys and Josiah earlier. I sat on the bed, positioning my legs to sit cross-legge
Elijah POVI had no idea what I had said to Lucia last night. I had even unconsciously agreed to something that was contrary to my own wishes. I don't even know what had influenced my mind to agree to the plan Lucia had last night. The thing that can still make my heart stop for a moment. The thing that always makes me think more deeply and repeatedly about my own decision.Lucia wanted the meeting between me and Harrison to be non-formal. That's good. Very good, in fact. But when Lucia said that making the meeting like a double date, I almost lost control of myself. How could I do that? How could I make a meeting between me, Lucia, Harrison, and also Felicity like a double date, with the plan to make Harrison unsettled?I didn't want that to happen. No, I didn't. Not at all. But, I felt that I couldn't refuse Lucia's request. How could I refuse her? Am I crazy? I thought I was crazy. Because I had let my mate have a revenge mission to make the person she hated love her. And I feel ev
Elijah and I walked together after getting out of the car. The two of us had arrived at the front of the Gray Company building by now. I actually still didn't know what Elijah was planning to do during our meeting with Harrison and Felicity today. All I knew was that Elijah had agreed to my wishes last night. And that felt really good and made me feel even more excited. I don't know what was going through my mind. But, seeing how Elijah always tries to keep me excited, and never gets discouraged easily, makes me feel more comfortable being with Elijah anywhere."So... what will I do in that meeting?"I idly asked Elijah with my mumbling tone of voice there. Because since this morning, until now, even when Elijah and I were in the car together, he remained silent. Elijah didn't even speak a word. Elijah seemed to be thinking about something very deep and also perhaps very important right now. I felt curious about that."Anything..."Elijah muttered slowly while pressing the elevator bu
"I'll go to the bathroom first."I raised my head and looked at Felicity who had stood up and walked out of the room. It had been almost an hour since me, Elijah, Harrison, and Felicity had talked together. The four of us didn't even just talk about business partnerships, but started discussing private matters now. Like Harrison and Felicity talking about their engagement, and their families. Meanwhile, Elijah and I only talk about hobbies, and things other than family. Elijah and I had really avoided discussing the family between the four of us since earlier."Lucia?"Elijah called my name in his mumbling voice now. That instantly made me turn my head and look at him in confusion."Yes? What's wrong, Elijah?" I asked briefly, while putting the glass down on the table again."Can you go together with my assistant, to pick up the cooperation file between Gray Company and Silver Company in my office right now?"Elijah asked with a small smile on his face now. Elijah looked at me with hi
Third POV"You know very well that I did a lot to get that gem, Felicity. And you're so easily losing that precious gem now. It hasn't even been a few months since you wore that jeweled ring as our engagement ring. How could you be such a careless person? How could you put that rare gem ring in such a random place?! On top of the bathroom sink? Are you actually crazy, huh?! What if someone else finds the jewel?! You don't know what kind of power that gem has, Felicity! If a mere mortal finds that gem, then it's all over for me who did everything in vain to get that gem. Damn it!"Harrison stomped his hands that were gripping the steering wheel of the car in a rough motion. Harrison looked very angry and upset there as well. Harrison's face was flushed and the lines on his face were hard now. Harrison himself could not hold back the angry emotions he was feeling right now. Harrison even began to grip the steering wheel of his car very tightly again. In addition, Harrison even
