Lucien snorted to hi to fall apart now He’d soifted two soul mates instead of only one Unfortunately, one didn’t want hiued with him at every turn

There had to be so with him Why else would he need two soul mates? Even with two, he still couldn’t make it work

He was not meant for relationships He’d never been able to make one work Not that he’d actually tried outside of the one that had tanked so badly They were too much hassle Too restrictive He liked his freedo about what anyone else wanted The whole world was just waiting at his feet

But all that caht?

Doubly so with two ht?

No, he was better off as a solo

Except his brothers in the Weavers Circle suffered if he couldn’t convince Gio to bond with him and Calder It would ht the pestilents

And Calder suffered because he clearly cared about Gio

Did that mean Calder cared for him as well?

Lucien’s treacherousup at hi Lucien didn’t dare put a naht in his throat and his heart had nearly pounded out of his chest No one had ever looked at hih Calder had handed hiift in all the world

He wasn’t worthy of a look like that He hadn’t done anything to deserve such a thing from Calder, to deserve any finer emotions

Nope, it was all bullshit Grey was mistaken Maybe Calder and Gio were meant to be soul mates Not him He wasn’t supposed to have a soul mate He was better alone What the fuck did he care if Gio didn’t want anything to do with him? Fuck Gio

There was a soft shuffle of footsteps through the grass, and Lucien iht hand, ready to fling it at the intruder It was unlikely to be a pestilent, but then the bastards had found ways of sending eh the protective field in the past And he would really love to roast one of those assholes right now Burn off a little of this excess energy
