“What do you mean? Is my mum okay?” I demand, fear trickling down my spine.
“Physically she is fine, but her mental health has taken a turn for the worse. Being in this realm is now causing her further distress. The doctors in charge of her care have a solution that they are sure will mean she can go back home and live a normal human life, free of any physiological issues, but this solution would require a great sacrifice from yourself,” Mr Collins explains. I take a minute to process his words. They can fix my mum,
she can go back to her old self before she became unwell.
“Whatever it is I’ll do it, just tell me what I need to do,” I nod, there’s nothing I won’t do for her.
“Please take some time to think this over before you decide as I said it’s a great sacrifice. In order to relieve your mum of her mental burden, we would need to delete you from her life, completely,” he says and I suck in a breath

“You mean, compel her to forget me?” I ask, my voice thick with emotion.
“Yes, it’s not something we usually condone, but given the circumstances that caused her mental decline, permission has been granted. Ultimately though, the decision is yours,” he smiles sympatheticly.
“If this is the only way to help her then do it, but I want to see her first, I need to say goodbye,” a sob rips from me without permission and Luke pulls me against him.
“Of course, I will arrange for you to see her tomorrow. I have spent quite some time with her in these last few weeks, she is a fierce lady and I can see where you get your fighting spirit,” he says and I smile through my tears. I can imagine the abuse she has been throwing at him.
“She is not afraid to say what she thinks,” I snort and immediately follow it up with another sob.
“She definitely isn’t, she has nicknamed me the handsome demon,” he laughs, “During our chats, I have managed to uncover some facts regarding your father if you would like to hear them,” he adds. I frown and nod for him to continue. “Your mother informed me that she was already pregnant with you when she met her husband. The man that raised you was not your biological father, but he raised you as his own anyway, he didn’t love you any less, to him you were his daughter,” he tells me and whilst I already suspected this might be the case, it’s still a punch to the gut to hear it confirmed. It doesn’t matter though, blood is nothing, he was my Dad in every way that mattered.
“Who was my sperm donor then?” I ask, refusing to give the man who abandoned me and had no input in my upbringing the title of father.
“I have not managed to work that out yet. We know that he must be a Grey, but all I was able to get from your mum was that he was a blue–eyed demon that seduced her with his mind. She is very confused about him, she has accused multiple people of being him, including me, so I don’t think it’s worth distressing her with any further questions,”
“Are you saying that he compelled her into having sex with him?” I fume. When I find him, I will kill him.
“I can’t be sure, she definitely has signs of compulsion but her mind is so damaged that I can’t sort through it,” he grimaces.
“How soon can you fix her?” I ask. I want her free of all this. I don’t want to lose her but to keep her in my life. would be selfish.
“There are a few details we need to work out, she would need to relocate to a place no one knows her with a new identity and a new backstory. I can provide all of that, I have a few properties in the human realm that I inherited from my father, and she is welcome to reside in one of those for as long as she likes. I will send the details of each

one to your email and you can choose which you think is best for her,” he smiles and I am filled with gratitude.
“Thank you, Sir, I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this “I breathe.
“Yes, it’s awfully kind of him, isn’t it?” Theo says and his voice is full of suspicion.
“Theo,” Mason wams.
“What? This is great, I’m glad Josie’s mum is going to be taken care of but is no one else thinking there must be a catch to this level of help?” Theo scoffs.
“I assure you, Mr Henry, there is no catch. Josie and her mum’s case is unique and one of our kind is responsible for this, the least I can do for one of my students is use my gifts to help right this wrong and loan out one of my empty properties,” Mr Collins defends.
“Sure, whatever you say. Are we done here? I think Josie needs some alone time with her bonds whilst she processes all this,” Theo stands and reaches a hand out to me.
‘Actually I do need to discuss your training, but feel free to take Miss Banks back to your apartment, I’m sure Mason, Luke and Axel can provide me with all the information I need,” Mr Collins
says.
“I’m going with them, you don’t need me for this discussion,” Axel grunts and seems to have some kind of stare- off with Mr Collins.
“Fine,” Mr Collins eventually agrees, “Miss Banks I’ll email the properties over to you soon,” he adds.
“Thank you, for everything,” I take a step towards his desk, I want to hug him, but then I realise that’s weird and stop myself.
I leave with Axel and Theo and we walk in silence until we get back to the apartment.

“I’m going to run you a bath and pamper you,” Theo kisses my cheek and leads me to the bathroom. Axel follows and he closes the door behind him when the water begins running.
“Okay spill, Axe, because I know you know something we don’t. What’s the deal with Mr Collins?” Theo asks quietly.
