BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 14
014 – Tractor
ADAN STONE.
For the last ten minutes, I’ve been staring at the Omega sleeping comfortably, sprawled out in my bed as if she owned it.
And the strange thing was, I was the one that placed her in there.
No female had entered my room. Not even helpers. I had a male Omega who was assigned to clean this suite and another one that attended to my clothes and personal things. I didn’t have any issues with females. I just didn’t want anyone in my space.
But Lucy. She came and just knocked off my walls, and it was not even a day yet. I was planning to place her in the suite beside mine, which was reserved for the Luna or future Luna of the pack, but for some reason, I just found myself unlocking my own suite.
I tipped the glass of solid whisky in my mouth, gulping it all at once before placing it back on the round table beside me for another refill. I’d stared at her for a long time, but I still couldn’t find any answers to the things bothering my mind, and my fucking wolf was not helping at all.
Despite being allured by the Omega, Beast refused to share his mind with me. Beast and I have been disconnected for over a year now. The only times we would have had our minds connected were those times we were both fighting for control.
To say that my wolf hated me was an understatement. I think he didn’t want me as his human counterpart. We used to be in sync with everything until Beast got tired of my bachelor ways two years ago.
He wanted our mate. But I didn’t give a fuck about it. Instead, I paraded around different females every night, fucking anyone I could get my hands on. And I thought I was doing okay because I was just living my life to the fullest. But even if I put our pack as my priority, it was not enough for him.
For every female I fucked, Beast grew distant, until I just woke up and realized that I couldn’t reach him. I couldn’t connect with him anymore. But seeing how he was with Lucy tonight warmed my heart. He liked her in a way that no other female in my life, family or not, came close.
Maybe Lucy could help me patch things up with my wolf.
But aside from that, there was still one question looming at the back of my mind.
I smelled her the moment I entered the auditorium. The alluring scent of moonflower and freesia swirled around me, and for a moment I thought Beast would come out of his shell and yell ‘mate in my head. But he didn’t.
So I couldn’t understand it. Maybe I was just entranced by the scent, but it wasn’t my mate’s scent. After all, I never really knew what a mate’s scent should be. And besides, why would I be mated to an Omega?
But it didn’t stop me from watching her dance gracefully with her eyes closed.
She was indeed a beauty, like an angel in a throng of hell. I was ready to leave the auditorium at the exact moment she opened her eyes and locked them with mine. She stopped dancing and got lost in the middle that it almost made me smile, only for me to remember that she was just an Omega – not worth my time.
I turned my back to her, ready to go home and just forget about her, but for some reason, I just found my feet treading the stairs and into the VIP room. I watched from afar, and I told myself I would just watch and see who would buy her. But then again, my actions were totally different from my thoughts.
So here I was, in my room, looking at the female I bought but had no idea what to do with her. She has no wolf and could never bear me a son – at least not yet. And she was not even fit to be chosen.
I shook my head and scoffed at myself because my mind was going too far.
A chosen? No fucking way. My family never had a chosen Luna. I might as well end up alone rather than break the chain.
Besides, like my grandfather said, if I couldn’t bear a son, Alonzo, my nephew, could be the pack’s next Alpha.
‘Alpha?‘ Collin’s voice dug into my head.
‘Hmmm…‘ I replied as I coiled my hand on the glass.
‘Do you need anything from me or shall we call it a day?‘
‘Nothing for now. But I want Laira to fix some clothes for the Omega tomorrow.‘
‘Noted, Alpha. In which room did you place her? So Laira can drop some clothes for her.”
I bit my bottom lip and took a big swig of the whisky while contemplating my response. I could tell him it was the room beside mine, but what’s the fucking point of lying to my Beta?
‘In my room.‘
‘What? You have got to be fucking
kidding me?‘ He laughed heartily, and instead of being annoyed, I found myself chuckling at the amazement in his voice.” What did the Omega do to you? Huh? Fuck, Adan!‘ I couldn’t answer him because I had no idea what she had done to me as well.
With my eyes still closed, I stretched my arms slowly, letting a big and loud yawn escape my throat as I wiggled my body slightly to wake me up from my sleep. I needed to get up early to help Stella with breakfast so the pups could eat first before heading to school.
But then I remembered that I was no longer in the orphanage. And the Omega feast would be…
Shit!
I snapped my eyes open as I sat up abruptly from laying down only to see an unfamiliar big room in front of me. The room was so massive with Victorian furniture that it felt like I was transported to the 18th century.
Where am I?
“Can you be more considerate? Someone is trying to sleep here.” Someone beside me in the bed spoke in a loud, clear voice that made me gasp in surprise.
Memories from last night came flooding in and made me realize I must be at Alpha
Stone’s packhouse now. My head tipped down to look at my clothes, and I was disappointed to see I was still wearing the bra and thongs from last night. No wonder my breasts were so painful because the bra was too tight.
