Naturally, he was wary and did not know what to say at first. His heart pounded hard against his ribcage.

Was it another trap?

“Mommy? Daddy said that I can call.”

Ralph’s words brought Lucien back from his stupor.

Of course.

Ralph was using Kinnon’s phone to make a call. It was the real Ralph this time.

“Hey, Ralphy.”

Lucien wiped the cold sweat away from his forehead. “How are you doing?”

.....

“Mom, Ralphy is all healed up. Daddy said that I can go out and play.”

“Mhm, that is wonderful.” Lucien smiled to himself. He could picture the bubbly little boy just by hearing his cheerful, spoiled voice.

“Mommyyy... Can I come and visit you? Can we go out and play?”

Lucien was a little taken aback. What impeccable timing. He and Annalynne were just planning to go out and play at the water park.

“Ralphy, can I call you back in a bit?”

“Okayyy!!!”

Once the call ended, Lucien walked over to Annalynne’s bedroom.

Lucien had wanted to spend time with Ralph for some time. It would be great to be able to celebrate his recovery by going somewhere to have fun.

Besides, Lucien was moving in with Ronan in three days.

Once Lucien entered the Infinite Eclipse Pack, Ronan would be unwilling to let Lucien wander around with Kinnon’s son.

So why not take Ralph to the water park as well?

Annalynne was in the middle of packing her luggage when Lucien came up with the idea.

“Hmmmmm...” Annalynne pursed her lips in deliberation. She originally wanted to spend time with her brother alone, but having a little boy around was a good excuse to enjoy all the rides, even the most childish ones.

“Ok!” She shouted in agreement.

“Great, let me get back to Ralph,” Lucien said with a smile. He knew that Annalynne would not say no. Like they said, the more the merrier.

Lucien called back to ask whether Ralph would be interested to join him and Annalynne for a little vacation at the water park. Naturally, the answer was a loud “YES!!!” before the little boy even asked permission from his father.

Lucien did not know what trick he used to cajole his father into agreeing, but within the next hour, Kinnon sent him a text saying that Ralph and his nanny were on their way to Blue Hill City.

The Clearwater siblings finished packing within an hour and left after Annalynne dumped all her responsibilities on Kendra’s shoulders. The latter was not pleased with the sudden workload, but she understood how important this trip was for both Annalynne and Lucien.

Thankfully, she still had Alice and Acatha to help her out.

The trip from East Temple City to Blue Hill City was supposed to take hours, but Ralph and his nanny managed to arrive not long after Lucien and Anna checked into the hotel.

The nanny mentioned that Kinnon allowed Ralph to take the helicopter just to reach Blue Hill City as fast as possible.

After the four people put their luggage in the hotel and got some lunch, they made their way to the water park.

It had only been open for a few years, but the water park was very popular with the inhabitants of Blue Hill City and out-of-city visitors alike.

Ralph’s energy was only second to Annalynne’s. Two days were more than enough to try out all the rides and visit all attractions, provided that they used their time efficiently.

Lucien and Ralph’s nanny ended up being dragged around by Annalynne and Ralph.

They even managed to get the nanny to slip into swimwear and enjoy the vacation as much as they did.

The four people only left the water park close to its closing time at 9 PM.

While they ran around and went from one attraction to another, their adrenaline levels were high. As soon as they arrived at the hotel, though, Ralph fell asleep like a log of wood. Meanwhile, the three adults were aching and sore. They could barely move a muscle without feeling pain.

“I cannot walk anymore,” Annalynne complained, her body a mass of pain even after taking a hot shower.

Lucien laughed.

Playing with a strand of Annalynne’s hair, he teased, “Does this mean that you want to go home tomorrow morning?”

Annalynne ripped her eyes open.

“No!” She shouted and sat up on the bed. “Lulu, you promised!!!”

Her brother chuckled.

“Relax, Anna. I am just teasing you.”

Annalynne let herself fall on the bed with a groan again.

Lucien massaged his sore limbs.

The last time he and Annalynne went to an amusement park with their parents was when they were seven-year-olds. Time did the strangest things to the bodies.

“We are old now,” Lucien commented.

Annalynne gasped in horror.

“Lulu, I forbid you from saying such heinous things! We are NOT old!”

Lucien went to lie next to his sister on the bed.

“Compared to Ralph, we are old.”

“That kid is three!” Annalynne argued.

Lucien laughed. “We are more than twenty years older than he is.”

“Ugh, I refuse to be called old. Here, let me search for the correct definition of ‘old’ for you.”

Annalynne grabbed her phone and started searching on the search engine.

When Lucien saw Annalynne’s phone, he came to remember his own phone. The electronic device was tucked inside his backpack. He forgot to charge it, so it remained dead the whole day.

As soon as Lucien switched his phone on, the screen showed him one missed call from Ronan.

Lucien waited until his phone had enough power before he dislodged it from the charging station.

He went to the balcony and shut the door behind him before he gave Ronan a call.

The phone rang for a long time, but Alpha did not answer.

Lucien tried again after one hour, but still nothing.

He sent Ronan a text and asked, “Hey, my phone was dead, what’s up?”

After Lucien sent the text, he went to lie next to Annalynne. He waited and waited, but Ronan did not reply to his message.

Eventually, Lucien fell asleep with his phone in his hand.
