“I have fairy blood?” She watched as he nodded his head.
“You took your necklace off. That’s why you can see it now.” Caspian watched as she looked up at Asher.
“I guess I’m part fairy.”
“I think that’s much better than being part troll.” He winked at her, kissing her forehead. “You’re perfect, and you’re mine. I told you, I don’t care what you are.” Asher then looked at Caspian. “I didn’t know you were part fairy. Are there any others in the pack?”
“No, just the luna and I.” Caspian looked over at Lita, who seemed to be studying him closely.
“Is this light around you your powers? Or is it the glow from your dust?” Lita asked as she motioned around him.
Caspian’s eyes grew wide. “You can see that?”
“Am I not supposed to?” Lita bit her bottom lip nervously. She didn’t know anything about fairies.
“You’re beginning to wake up.” Caspian's voice was quiet, and he looked at her seriously, furrowing his brow.
“Wake up? I’m not awake?” Lita was confused by his statement. What did he mean by waking up? Her fairy powers had to wake up?
Asher studied Caspian’s face as waves of concern washed over it. “Is that a bad thing? Can you elaborate?” Asher did not like guessing games, especially when they pertained to his mate.
“Fairies are pretty secretive. It’s why I never told you I was part fairy. But this is something I can’t talk about. We don’t want Lita in pain. She will need to wake up naturally. But Lita is in danger, and—”
“So my mother was a fairy? Why didn’t she fight back that day? Why did she just—” Lita’s head began to throb as a strange tugging pulled in her mind.
“Lita, stop.” Caspian’s voice was firm. “Don’t think about it. Please, you’re going to hurt yourself.”
“Lita.” Asher cupped her cheeks, staring into her green eyes. He rubbed his thumb over her cheek as he felt her body calm down. “I don’t know what’s going on, but I don’t want you to hurt yourself, so listen to Caspian.”
“Alright, but I’m going to need some answers.” Lita glanced over at Caspian. “Like, what is that other light around you? The one that’s swirling. Do I get a swirling light?” She listened as he chuckled.
“All fairies are different. We come in all shapes, sizes, and abilities. And we keep our secrets.” He held her gaze and could see her understanding.
Your light … is it an attractant? It draws females and makes them more willing to listen to you. It’s why you always have women around you!Her eyes lit up as she mindlinked him.
Caspian stared at her in awe. She wasn’t even fully awakened and she had more power than he ever imagined. She was right. He wasn’t a cupid who drew couples together, but he was a fairy who drew single or unhappy women to him. It was a power to seduce. If people knew about his power, he would probably be cast out.
“Okay, you are dangerous.” Caspian chuckled out in amusement.
“What is it?” Asher asked and Lita giggled up at him.
“Nope, it’s a secret.” Lita giggled.
“Well, if my luna is in danger, then we will keep the pack on high alert. No one will hurt my mate. I’m going to need to know how she’s in danger. Tell me as soon as you can.” He finally had his luna, and he would be damned if anyone or anything was going to hurt her. His pack was strong, and they would protect her with their lives.
Chapter 28
“That is the last piece of bacon!” Garrett growled as he rose to his feet.
“It is, isn’t it? Well, that’s going to make it taste even better.” Caden smirked as he lifted it to his lips.
“Don’t you dare! You’ve already had your fair share!” Garrett’s eyes narrowed on Caden as he took a small step around the table.
“What are you going to do about it, ‘Gamma’?” Caden stood and arched his brow in a challenge as Garrett let out a dark chuckle.
“Is that how it’s going to be? Well then—NO!” Garrett dove for Caden, who quickly shoved the bacon in his mouth. “That’s it!”
Lita watched as the two men locked into a wrestling match and tumbled onto the floor. She looked over at Asher, who was watching them in amusement. “Why didn't you tell them there’s more bacon in the oven?”
