“What kind of precautions?” I repeated seriously.
“Look, baby boy, I’ll tell you when you get here, but she’s the only person who I know that can help you with this mystery stone issue. And I know you don’t have any reason to trust me right now, but that’s what I’m asking for. Your trust. Because I trust her, I know her, and I promise you she means you no harm.”
Fuck.
I took a deep breath, deciding to take her up on her offer. “I might really have to make sure you’re being honest with me this one time,” I admitted, not at all thrilled to take this risk she was presenting. “Because I’m not too keen on someone trying to kill me.”
Mrs. Rebecca took a noisy deep breath. “I…I understand. As an apology for making you feel like shit and losing your trust, I’ll allow it.”
I frowned at that. “How were you going to prevent it in the first place?”
There was a long pause. “Can I trust you, baby boy?” she asked seriously, almost sounding like she was giving me the same kind of warning I’d given her, about me not being able to trust her anymore if she broke it again. Except, she was posing her own warning as a question.
I took a deep breath, my tone becoming more sincere. “Yeah, you can absolutely trust me. Because, if I have anything to offer you, it’s respect.”
She was quiet for a few seconds. “Very well,” she agreed. “Then come over, just you, and I’ll show you how I would have protected myself.” She paused. “I’ll also explain more in person about the situation. Okay? Oh, and bring the stone, of course.”
I focused on Serenity and Gabriella, both of them examining me hesitantly, only for my fiancé to speak up. “I don’t like this, mom.”
“Me either,” my sister chimed in. “I really don’t like this. We’re talking about my little brother here. He’s my everything.”
“I know, and I understand,” Mrs. Rebecca agreed. “But I’ll be with him, and I won’t let anything bad happen to him. She just wants to meet him, and is only worried about her own safety. That is all.” She then paused again. “Look,” she continued. “My actual mother didn’t raise me. She was too busy enjoying the last few decades of her life. It’s why I call this person my mom, because she is my mom. She raised me when my own mother was too preoccupied to be a good mother herself. So I’ve spent a lot of time with her and I know for a fact she’s a good person. She’d never hurt anyone just to do it.”
Gabriella’s eyes were wide at that little nuclear bomb of a revelation, obviously having no idea that all this time her own mom wasn’t always referring to her grandma whenever she said ‘mom.’ However, she didn’t say anything, seeming lost for words.
Assuming Mrs. Rebecca was being honest, which I felt like she was, then I could understand this other woman’s perspective. Because as far as I was aware, succubi couldn’t straight-up control other people, whereas incubi did have that capacity. So yeah, it made perfect sense that this stranger wouldn’t be thrilled to speak to a half-blooded incubus without some precautions in place.
“Okay,” I finally agreed. “I guess I’ll head back over there. See you soon. Lov–” My voice caught in my throat, when I realized what I was about to say, feeling like it was a betrayal of my addiction to her.
Mrs. Rebecca made an amused noise. “Baby boy, I love you too. See you soon.” And with that, she hung up.
I sighed as I stuck the phone back in my pocket.
“I really don’t like this,” Serenity blurted out again, running her fingers through her hair.
“I know, sis,” I agreed. “But this is the only person we can ask, and we’re never going to get anywhere if we refuse to trust anyone. Besides, what if my biological father does show up one day, parading around as a good guy, when he’s actually bad? I don’t think we can just sit on this and hope no issues come up down the road. We need to be proactive here, not reactive.”
She frowned at that, knowing very well I was repeating something she herself had said a few times before, about being proactive instead of reactive, only to nod in agreement.
“Okay,” she finally said with a grimace. “Just…please be careful.”
“I will,” I promised. “And I’ll do whatever I need to do to ensure she doesn’t feel threatened.” I sighed. “And hopefully we can start getting some real answers.”
Unexpectedly, Gabriella slipped off the bed and threw herself at me. “I love you,” she whispered, sounding desperate now, as if I was going off to war or something. “Please keep us updated if you can.” She sighed. “Or maybe I can at least have my mom keep us updated, in case ‘no phones’ is a stipulation.”
I nodded in agreement. “Sounds good. I guess let me go touch base with Avery and Michelle, make sure they are okay, and then I’ll head over to your mom’s place.”
Serenity chimed in again. “We can fill them in on everything while you’re gone, so don’t worry about getting into too many details.”
“Sure,” I agreed warmly. “Thanks, sis. Love you.”
“Love you too,” she whispered, climbing out of bed too when I began heading for my bedroom door, only to pause to scratch her lower back, before continuing.
Unsurprisingly, Avery and Michelle both were downstairs at the kitchen table, both of them seeming really worried, but patiently letting us figure things out. It was obvious they looked relieved when I came back downstairs seeming in a much better mood.
First thing I did was apologize for not even greeting them when we got home, explaining that Gabriella’s mom made me really upset, but that she did it because she found out I could compel people and wanted to see how I handled her essentially rejecting me.
That of course made Michelle realize that she wasn’t the only MILF I was interested in, which she didn’t seem to mind, but also sincerely came to her as a shock. However, when I started explaining that it probably wasn’t safe for me to be physical with anyone until Mrs. Rebecca taught me how to sense the kind of sexual energy I was absorbing, my sister interrupted to tell me they’d explain it all on my behalf.
She also told me that she’d left the black wooden chest in the car, so I should have everything I needed.
I thanked her, knowing it probably was best to not delay, and gave everyone hugs before heading out the front door and climbing in my car to head back over to Mrs. Rebecca’s house.
I was glad everything she’d done to make me so upset truly was a test. And glad that she’d still taken it upon herself to help me out.
However, one thing was for sure.
There was no way in hell I wasn’t going to truly compel the truth out of her, to ensure everything she said was honest, because I couldn’t handle feeling like she was betraying me a second time.
Especially not if it was a true betrayal, instead of her just rejecting me…
My heart was really starting to pound in my chest as I pulled out of our driveway and onto the road, my skin graying slightly underneath my clothing, knowing my anxiety was increasing at the idea that I’d be finally meeting someone who was fully supernatural.
But I’d much rather meet this person, someone who Gabriella’s mom trusted, rather than meet someone who had no one to vouch for them.
Still, I felt like this was going to be a big deal.
No, I had no doubt it would be.
I was about to meet a full-blooded succubus.
An immortal, just like my biological father.
