Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Mom and I were on her bed in our pajamas drinking tea, “So is Lexus always high?” Mom asked. We

were on the topic of relationships, so I guess that’s why she had to throw that question in.

I chuckled nervously. “Only a quarter of the time. More often now that we’re not in the castle anymore.

Do you think that’s bad?”

Mom shook her head. “I guess it’s fine as long as he does what he needs to do.” She took a sip of her

tea then said, “It was just a little bit of a surprise seeing him like that after dinner two weeks ago.”

I could understand that. “Mom… have you been keeping up with the news? Everyone’s calling me a

trader.”

Mom sighed. “Yeah I’ve seen it. Don’t let it get to you Aqua, you’ve been doing good.” I had told her

about the little things I was doing for the village I was staying in and the neighboring villages. I think you

should start doing bigger things you know. Magic users and spell casters usually take jobs posted

online or on notice boards.”

I finished my tea and put the cup on the counter. “You think I’ll be up to it?”

“Of course, your abilities are maturing and you’re a natural at magic.” My mother had been picking up

where our gram left off with teaching me.

I laid back. “I’ll do that, but you’ll have to come with me when I take my first official big job.”

“I will but you need to join the coven first, I think it’ll really be good for you.” She insisted.

I grabbed my shoulder. “Shit.” I swore from pain.

“What’s wrong?”

“I…” My heart started racing from fear.

“Is it Lexus? What kind of pain is it? Is he hurt or…”

There was no way to interrupt the signal of a mark of true mates. Even being here with my mother’s

protection spell didn’t cancel out our connection the way it did for my father and Lynn. ‘Is everything

okay?’ I asked Lexus telepathically.

‘Yeah, someone accidently touched my mark, that's all.’ He explained and I told my mother.

“They accidentally touched it?” She didn’t believe him. “Do you trust him, Aqua? You know what he’s

capable of.”

I frowned. “Do you trust Dad?” We were in similar situations so I’m not sure why she’s talking to me

about trust.

She looked away. “I do. He loves me more than he loved Lynn. He never cheated on Lynn with anyone

else, it was always only me.”

“Lexus cheated on Sadia with Vella… not just me but he didn’t love Sadia, he didn’t even like her

romantically.” We both had our reasons for trusting the men we were with despite them cheating with

us.

I looked at the door as Dad walked in. “Should I come back?”

Mom shook her head. “No, no we can all be together, I love when we spend time as a family. I feel like

it makes up for the lost time.”

“I hope I’m not spoiling anything then.” Cade said as he walked in behind Dad.

“No, you’re welcome Cade.” Mom said. “Gray is welcome too.” She muttered.

Dad rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. “That’s probably not going to be for a long, long time.”

Cade sat down in a chair. “My mom should probably know about you two being together beforehand.

Trust me, she’s not ready to know about it yet. Hey Aqua.”

I smiled. “H-ow.” My smile dropped. I rubbed my cheek where I felt the pain which didn’t hurt too much.

It wasn’t as bad as my shoulder. It was just a surprising sting.

“What’s wrong?” Dad asked.

Mom looked annoyed. “Accidents.”

“Is it Lexus?” Cade asked. “I told you to leave him and instead you mated with the asshole.”

I rolled my eyes. ‘Hey, did something happen?’ I asked Lexus but he didn’t respond. “He’ll probably let

me know what happened later.”

“Read his mind.” Dad suggested.

I got out of bed. “Oh, I can’t, he blocks his thoughts when we’re away from each other.”

“Do you block yours?” Cade asked.

I shrugged. “I don’t, Lexus just values his privacy, it’s hard to have any when you’re with someone with

my abilities.”

“Use your abilities to see where he is.” Dad suggested. I must have been the only one who did trust

Lexus. I felt like they were getting in my head and made me worry about nothing. I guess I couldn’t

prove it was nothing unless I spied on him, but I don’t need proof. All I need is for him to explain what I

felt.

I didn’t want to spy on him. “I try not to spy on people anymore. Plus, I think he’s too far.”

Cade looked the most pissed. “Too far? You can see half a kingdom away now, a large kingdom.”

Everyone was making me feel more nervous. “Is he back in the village?”

“I don’t know where he is.” I turned to my mom. “I’m ready to join the coven, let’s go now.”

Mom was hesitant. “Do you have your gems with you, you’ll be able to see further.”

I sighed and grabbed the bag I keep them in. I gave into the pressure and grabbed the gemstone that

helps with my third eye. I meditated with it and used my abilities to see Lexus.

Lexus was in a really nice manner. “The prince of Wilwar and former heir is coming to me for a job?”

She was a beautiful woman with light brown skin and long black straight hair. “Aren’t you rich? Even

richer than my family.”

Lexus followed her up the stairs. “My parents are rich, and they cut me off. I’ve been disowned, I have

money that will last me the next few years, but I need a career.” He went asking a woman I didn’t know

for a job. I didn’t know anything about this but despite how my family feels I trust him.
