BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 45

045 – A Shot At Life With Her

LUCY.

“Then they need to go,” he said in a cold voice as if he was just throwing toys. 1

“You can’t do that! These people are loyal to you, and you just can’t throw them away just because…”

“Watch me do it then,” he snapped back before heading for the door.

I went after him, doubling my step to catch up with his strides. I knew his men were good people, and I would never blame them if they thought I would be a liability and not worth having around because, let’s face it, who conspires with demons?

I grabbed his forearm because he kept walking and soon we would reach the stairs. The last thing I wanted was for anyone to hear our conversation. ” Promise me you will hear them out and not throw them away! Laira and Lena…”

“I’m sure they will do the same thing! They will fuck off and leave me if I tell them I don’t want Laira and Lena here!” He cut me off as he stopped and combed his fingers through his hair.

“You’re unbelievable!”

“Can you fucking calm down! No one is being thrown out!” He narrowed his eyes at me.

“Not now! But who knows what mood you’ll have later? If they disagree with you…’

“I’m the fucking Alpha here!”

That was the third time he didn’t let me finish my words, and it was already pissing me off.

“I can set you on fire, Alpha!” I emphasized the word Alpha, but instead of being annoyed with me, a smug smirk crawled across his face.

“You surely can, little bunny!”

“I’m not kidding! I will burn you if you kick them out!” I told him in between gritting my teeth.

“And risk being found by Lucien? Nice try, love. But you can’t scare the Alpha here.” He turned my body around so my back was facing him before his hand landed on my ass with a hard slap, jolting my body forward. “Now go back inside the room before I set your pussy on fire…”

My eyes were still wide from shock as my feet rushed forward and I ran back to our bedroom without any more complaints.

His words rendered me speechless.

No, not the one about setting my pussy on fire, but did the Alpha just address me as love?

That was the first time, and I had no idea how to react to it. Was it just out of habit? Maybe he was used to addressing females with that endearment. Or maybe, just maybe, the Alpha liked me a little too much already. 1

ADAN STONE.

I shook my head as I watched the she- demon run back to our suite. Her ass was jiggling, and the view was all mine to enjoy, but more than that, I saw how her cheeks turned scarlet red with my words.

Did she suddenly become conservative and not used to the dirty words coming out of my mouth?

I chuckled and turned around to head downstairs the moment our suite door closed. Collin and Kingston were already waiting.

I doubted they would not accept Lucy, these two were loyal to the bone. They may have had reservations, but I knew them – if I decided to go to hell, they would accompany me, just as I would for them.

I didn’t waste time. As soon as the office door closed, I laid out everything I knew about Lucy. It didn’t slip my eyes how their faces paled before they were able to compose themselves.

If we were talking about a different person who turned out to be a demon, I would probably react the same way.

But this was my Lucy – nothing she could tell me about her would scare me off. She could be the goddess of the underworld too, and I would still keep her.

“A demon?” Kingston said after I shut my mouth. “A fucking demon? What the fuck did you both get us into?”

“What do you mean both? This is all fucking Adan, not me!” Collin snapped at him.

“You’re the one who dragged him to that Omega Feast!”

“Enough. Don’t tell me you both are cowering now?” My forehead creased as I shook my head.

“What if she decided to just fucking end our life? They have fucking magic.” Kingston is still dominating the conversation.

“She calls it power,” I told him.

“Holy fuck! This is real now!”

“Collin? What’s on your mind?” My Beta had been quiet and the only time he spoke was when he told the Gamma this was all my fault.

“I don’t know, Alpha. From the get-go, knew she couldn’t be a simple Omega, but never in my wildest dreams did I think she’s a demon… she’s too tame to be one.

“Demons can be deceiving, and that’s the one thing that bothers me.” Kingston butted in.

“Don’t forget she’s half-wolf. Her foundation years are with wolves, and you can’t just disregard that.”

“I get that. But are you sure she’s not playing you? Playing us? Don’t get me wrong, I like Lucy, and Lena likes her too. But what if this is a trap to infiltrate us?”

“What can they get from us?” I asked him back.
