Prev Chapter Next Chapter

When we walked back into the restaurant we led our grandfather to the table with my parents. Dad

laughed. “Mae.”

Mom laughed. “Konain stop.”

They both stopped messing around and looked at us. “It’s good to see you Father, this is Mae and Mae

this is my father,” He reintroduced them.

We all sat down. “It’s nice to finally meet you Mae again.” Grandfather picked up the menu.

“I have news.” Cade announced. “Sadia, my girlfriend is pregnant.”

Dad dropped his menu. “What?”

“That’s good isn’t it?” Mom asked.

Dad shrugged, “You started seeing Sadia not that long after her last relationship. Is the-“

“Yes it’s mine.” Cade answered the question before Dad finished asking it. “The timing makes it clear

it’s mine.” When Sadia found out she told me right away so I could tell Lexus. We were all really

relieved. “I’ve already joined the pack.” He showed the pack mark on his shoulder. Grandfather didn’t

react or say anything.

“Congrats,” I said. We all ordered our food and gave the waiter our menus. I closed my eyes to see

what Lexus was doing.

He was at a bar, but he was smoking instead of drinking. ‘Are you spying on me?’ Lexus asked jokingly

and telepathically.

‘Yeah I am. My grandfather just got here and I’m a little nervous.’

“Aqua.” Grandfather called me.

I opened my eyes. “Huh?”

“You shouldn’t use your abilities for your own purposes.” Grandfather said.

“Why not?” My mother asked. “It’s her abilities.” Dad looked am worried.

“They were given to our family to better the kingdom not for our own gain. I don’t expect you to

understand Mae,” Grandfather explained.

“Is that what we came to talk about?” Cade asked, annoyed. “I didn’t need to be here if it’s about

Aqua.”

“No, it’s about all of you. You need to go back to the castle and apologize to the king and queen. This is

ridiculous and a mockery to everything my father and our ancestors built.”

“Did you explain it to him?” I asked my Dad.

“Yes, he just doesn’t believe it.”

I frowned. “You don’t believe that I spoke to the moon goddess?”

Grandfather shook his head. “I believe that you believe you did but it doesn’t add up. Why wouldn’t my

father have spoken with the moon goddess? Why wouldn’t she have led him down the right path.”

I knew the answer, but I wasn’t sure if it was good for me to explain. “Did he ever have a dream about

her?”

Grandfather shook his head. “No but if it was important to her she would have visited his dream.”

He didn’t understand. “Diana had tried with holders before him, but she wouldn’t order them to leave.

She gave them the choice of leaving, and they knew she didn’t intend on them working for the royal

family. The problem was their loyalty.”

“And you have none.” Grandfather said as if it proved his point.

“And that’s why I was chosen as the new holder. I’ve been doing all kinds of hands on good for people.

I’ve been helping them face to face and not from a distance in a big castle.” I looked at the waiter as

they brought our food.

As we started to eat no one said anything but there was a lot of tension. My grandfather didn’t care that

the holder was never meant to work for the royal family. He cared more about continuing what we’ve

always done because Diana gives us free will. She gives us the choice, so he doesn’t want to give me

one. I noticed my grandfather had a bag with him. “What’s in the bag?”

“My father’s journals, he documented his time as a holder. I thought it might help you realize your

power and capabilities.”

I smiled. “I think that would really help.”

“It would have.” He muttered.

My smile turned to a frown and I slightly pushed my food away. “You’re not giving them to me

anymore?”

Grandfather shook his head. “My father knew it was impossible for him to teach the next holder. When

a holder dies only then can the next holder be born. Two holders can’t be alive at once. He

documented all he could to teach the next holder of the castle.” He stood up. “You’re not the next

holder of the castle so you don’t need these.”

‘Are you okay?’ Lexus asked me telepathically because he could feel my anger. I didn’t usually get

angry, but my grandfather was being unfair.

Dad spoke up, “You’re risking a good relationship with your granddaughter out of pettiness, Father.”

Grandfather didn’t care. “It was nice seeing you all again, congratulations to you and Sadia.” He said to

Cade. “I’m excited about my first great grandchild and your grandmother will be too.” He walked away. I

clenched my fists and took a deep breath.

“Aqua, do you want to do something else?” Mom offered. “I don’t want you going back this upset.”

I noticed through looking out the window that Lexus was waiting outside. “Is Lexus welcome?” I wasn’t

sure how my mother felt about Lexus.

Mom nodded. “Of course, he is. Cade, you're welcome too.”

Cade chuckled. “Not if Lexus is going to be there.”

We were all done eating so we paid the bill and left. Lexus walked to me as soon as we walked out the

door. “I’d ask if you were okay, but I can feel you’re not, that’s why I came down here.”

I looked up at him then tried to hold back a smirk. “Yeah… I’ll explain later.”

“What’s funny?” Lexus asked.

I decided to answer telepathically. ‘You look really high, like really high. Your eyes are bloodshot and

low. It was just funny because of how concerned you are. Anyways my mom invited us to spend time

with her but I’d rather you be sober for that.’

“Aqua.” Cade said. “I’m going to go, I’ll see you soon okay?”

“Okay, tell Sadia I say hi okay?” I waved as he walked off. “Mom, Lexus isn’t going to join us.” It was

obvious to everyone why.

“That’s fine I wanted to talk to you about joining my coven,” She said.

‘Could you do me a favor babe?” Lexus asked. ‘When we’re apart, could you not use your third eye to

watch me? Could you let me know when you’re going to use it before you do?’

‘Oh… yeah, no problem.’ I was still really disappointed about what happened with my grandfather but

at least I could spend time with my parents.
