Beneath Her Darkness: The Alpha's Little Demon by Cassandra M novel Chapter 197

B2 045 - Heir of Athwart

KINGDOM OF ATHWART LUCIUS.

After the commotion had died down, all of Athwart’s demons on the battlefield were sent to Kalmerus, where my demon guards briefed them on the way I was running my kingdom.

While Patrea and I, together with Lucija and Stone, headed back to the tower to check on Althea at Patrea’s request.

The two talked alone before Althea agreed to be sent back to the human realm, as Patrea didn’t want her to stay here.

And now that Patrea was connected to me, and demon blood was already running in her veins, she would be able to n.ovelebook transport back and forth to the human world any time she wanted.

It would make it easier for her to visit Althea.

After we had said goodbye to everyone and Patrea thanked them for their help, Lucija took everyone back to their territory, while Patrea and I headed to Athwart.

If I had my choice, I would be spending the next hours with Patrea alone, but there were things that we couldn’t delay at the moment, and it made me happy that my queen was all up for coming along with me on this one.

Alastor, one of Arturos’ offspring, whom I believed was also supposed to be the heir to his throne, refused to leave the tower of Athwart.I sent Dorion to make sure the tower was clear, and this was the information he relayed to me.

Alastor even blasted some demons who attempted to take him away from his chamber.

If Patrea was not with me, I would not be facing this demon.I would just kill him right away, but I had too much blood in my hands already for today, and my desire to hold Patrea’s hand in mine was greater than my desire to kill him.I transported our bodies to the throne hall of the tower, where Dorion was waiting for us.

"How is it now?" I asked as soon as we appeared in front of him.

"[All of Arturos’ spawns had disappeared even before I arrived except for Alastor.]" He stated this, andI simply nodded my head.

"[Have you checked the dungeon to see if anyone was set free?]"

"[The dungeons are calm.However, the prisoners were requesting a dialogue with you.]"

"[We can do that some other time.I have to kick out Alastor first.Where is he?]"

"[In his chamber,]" Dorion replied.

I acknowledged his response and told him to attend to other matters, and he disappeared immediately in front of us.

"We will enter his chamber, and you might see something you don’t want to see," I told Patrea as I turned my body to face her.

"The demon is having an orgy."

"I’ve seen orgies in the past.Do you think Lucien didn’t try to corrupt my mind?" She replied cockily.

My hand went to her jaw before I kissed her softly.

Kissing Patrea felt so natural that even without thinking, I always ended up kissing her.

"I just want to make sure you will not feel uncomfortable once we go there," I told her the moment I broke our kiss.

She smiled before her thumb wiped the wetness from my lips.

"I won’t.But can I ask you something? And can you answer me honestly?"

"I have never lied to you."

She nodded her head before she asked.

"Will you be engaging in orgies? Will you force me to have orgies?"

"No for the first question, and hell no for the second."

I hissed, my arm wrapping around her back to her waist before I pulled her closer.She tilted her head up and met my eyes.

"I’m not interested in orgies anymore.One pussy is enough for me.And there’s no fucking way I’m going to share you with anyone."

"Demons love orgies." She stated.

"Are you having an urge for orgies now?"

My eyes delved deep into hers, wanting to see her truth while my heart thudded loudly.It was only now that I could fully understand Lucija when she told me that Stone was enough for her.

I remembered laughing at her face and telling her that demons would never be satisfied with one sexual partner.I was now eating my words because I simply wanted Patrea just for myself.

And for some reason, my heart was aching while I waited for her response.

What if the demon blood I gave her made her crave multiple partners? For orgies? Could I say no to her? Her arms snaked around me as a seductive grin curled on her lips, and it made my heart thud more loudly.I wished I hadn’t taught her earlier how to control her mind so I could still read her mind now.

"I don’t think I'll be comfortable with anyone except you, my king.I don’t want to share you with anyone either.I’m selfish like that."

She finally said what I wanted to hear.

My heart began to calm down as a wicked grin crossed my face, both hands holding her waist as I squeezed it before leaning forward.

"We can be selfish together then."

Her hand went to my mouth, pushing my head away from her before she laughed softly.

"We have things to do, Lucius.We can do all the kissing later."

"Right." I hissed.

I almost forgot what we came here for.

"I can give you many more after this." She told me, her eyes flitting with happiness and I couldn’t help but get mesmerized by her.I clasped her hand with mine before catching her eyes again.

"Ready to enter his chamber?" I asked when her hand tightened around mine.

She nodded her head, and I immediately willed our bodies to be sucked into limbo, landing on the foot of Alastor’s massive bed.

Four females were around him, each of them sucking a part of his body.

Alastor pushed the female nearest to him, and the other scampered away, hissing at the disturbance, while the demon prince's eyes were blazing with fire as he looked at me.

"[Who gave you the right to enter this tower?]"

He snarled, his demon fangs erupting from his gums.

But if he thought he could scare me, he was delusional.

"[This tower is mine now.I'm sure you are well aware that Arturos is dead.] I told him in a bored tone.

"[I am the rightful heir of this kingdom!]" he shouted, still sitting on his bed.
