WARNING: MATURE CONTENT!!! Jace knocked on Lucy's bedroom door three times. "Come in!" Ashlee yelled through the door. When Ashlee saw that it was only Alpha Jace, she gave Lucy a sympathetic look before walking out of the room and quietly closing the door. Jace picked Lucy up off the floor and carefully placed her on the bed. Lucy had tried earlier to hide her tears when Jace knocked on the door. She didn't want sympathy. However, Jace didn't seem to be buying the tough girl act since he could feel her still shaking when he picked her up. He also traced the tear lines on her face with his fingertips. "Shhh, little one. You don't need to cry to get my attention. It'll be over soon. I'm here now," he cooed to Lucy. Little one? Attention? Are we just some helpless little doll to them
