BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Book 2

Chapter 5 – Curious Little Witch

PATREA.

“I don’t think I’ve seen you in your demon form. What do you look like?”

“For someone who wants to forget the underworld, it’s weird you want to know more about my demon side.” He stated this without opening his eyes, his face still void of any emotions.

Lucien was handsome, and so was Guillermo, but I think Lucius, despite the constant presence of a scowl on his face, was far better looking than them. “This human face you have, did you choose that, or do you automatically have that like shifters? They have human form and wolf form, but they can’t choose how they look.”

“Aren’t you a curious little witch?” His eyes snapped open, and he tilted his head in my direction, making our eyes.

And his eyes just hypnotized me.

It might be some charm that he has that makes me relax around him. I dropped my gaze from him, and it landed on his chest, which was very prominent on the tight shirt he had on him. I could see his erect nipple.

Spirits! I felt like a cougar at the moment. But then he was definitely older than me, so…

“What are you thinking?” He asked.

“I haven’t had sex with anyone in three decades. I mean, with me participating in it.” For some reason, it was easier to talk about this with him. Maybe because he was a demon, and would not judge me by the words coming out of my mouth.

“I wanted to tell you that you can just lay down there and I’ll do all the work, but then…”

“I’d been doing that for a long time. Do you think I would ever feel satisfied with sex again?”

“Did he ever make you come?”

“Yes.” I shifted my position and lay on my back, my gaze focusing on the ceiling above me, while I clutched my blanket just below my chest. “But I never enjoyed it. I felt dirty because I orgasmed even though I didn’t want to. It seldom happens, but I still feel bad that it did happen.”

“Your body was reacting to being touched. It’s not your fault. Do you want to talk more about it?”

“About it?” I asked as I chanted in my head, making all the lights flicker until they turned off except for the lamp beside the couch, but it was dimmed, making the whole room cozy and warm.

“I want to know what he exactly did to you and the way he was touching you. So I know what not to do. ii

“Are you not losing hope that maybe, you will not get anything from me?”

“Hope never resides with demons. I always get what I want, Patrea. I know it will take time, but I will get it.”

“It will take time, or decades, or centuries…”

He laughed, and it made my heart skip a beat. I thought he would be mad at my refusal.

“What’s another century? I can have my fill with those females around me while waiting for you.” “Why do you wait? It has been six months, and as you said, there are other females.”

“Have you craved someone? I haven’t. Except for you.”

I liked it when he said things without a filter. He would just say what he feels or wants to say.

I closed my eyes and steadied my breathing. Maybe if he got his fill of me, he would move on and get away from me.

“You can sleep if you want to…” His words came out soft, and I was sure he had done something to make me sleepy.

“Are you sure you’re not going to hug me while I sleep?” I asked before a soft yawn escaped my throat.

“I don’t do hugs, so you have nothing to worry about. I can stay here glued to my position for the rest of the night while my mind works in the demon world.”

“You’re not going to leave, right? Because if I ended up having nightmares and Althea didn’t come, no one would stop it.”

“I won’t leave until the morning…”

I turned to my sides, facing him without opening my eyes. For some reason, his side of the bed felt warmer. I scooted nearer to him and coiled my body until I was in the fetal position, my head resting just beside his hips as he was still sitting.
