BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 7

007 – Touch It

LUCIA.

Dark Blue Eyes was approaching, but his eyes were on Mr. Asshole, a smug smirk plastered on his face.

1,100,000

Another flashed on the screen and the asshole cursed and brushed his hand over his hair before he started pressing his tablet again. All the while, all my hopes of being bought by Dark Blue Eyes flew out of the window. He had no tablet with him.

He was not bidding. He might be the organizer. Or… Goddess, he might be Olivia’s mate.

My heart clenched and I had no idea why I was hurting. My eyes watered as I dropped my gaze down, but I saw the screen move. Mr. Asshole bid over again.

1,300,000

“Getting frustrated, Ethan?” The deep baritone voice sent shivers down my spine, but this time, it was a shiver of pleasure. Even without looking, I knew it came from him.

“Me, frustrated? Watch and learn, Stone. “A cocky grin flashed across Mr. Asshole‘s face. Stone. What kind of name was that?

1,500,000

The screen flashed, but I was wondering if Ethan – Mr. Asshole, saw it as he was still looking at Stone.

“You‘re losing your touch. What‘s special about this Omega?”

I almost raised my brow, but instead, I bit my bottom lip and made sure to glue my eyes to the timer ticking down.

“Fucking virgin.”

Goddess, you’re wrong. I was far from that.

“How many have you bought tonight? Are you not running out of resources? Your pack is going to lose money.”

Five seconds.

“Why do you care? Do you want to take over my pack?” He chuckled, shaking his head as he mocked him.

Stone shrugged his shoulders before he faced the stage at the exact moment the clock timer went to 00:00.

Our eyes met, and I couldn’t help the smile that graced my lips, despite the fact that he wasn’t smiling at me. I was thankful for his distraction. Now if I could only find out who bought me.

“What the fuck?” Ethan growled, and my body jolted at the intensity of his voice as his eyes dilated, fangs erupting as he looked furiously at Stone.

He was throwing words at him, but my attention was drawn somewhere. A muscular man with blonde hair walked down the same stairs that Stone descended, with a tablet in his hand.

Was he my buyer? I swallowed hard as I looked at him, but he wasn’t looking at me.

A female came and asked me to step off the stage. I followed her, but my eyes weren’t leaving the blonde man while I was being ushered out until he reached where Stone was and handed him the tablet he had in his hands. I gasped softly. Did Stone buy me?

It was at that moment that Stone motioned for the female who was holding my arm to stop walking.

“Stop. I‘m taking her with me.” His voice was so sexy I couldn‘t help but swallow.

I bit my bottom lip as I dropped my eyes to the ground. Did he really buy me? If he takes me now, I will not be able to run away. But do I still want to run away?

“Sir, payment must be made before you can take the Omega.” The female answered respectfully.

He scowled at her. “I‘m not going to run away...”

His words were cut short when Ethan came and held his shoulder, which Stone slapped away before he growled at him for touching him.

“This is not fucking over, you fucking cheated!” Ethan’s face was furious.

“Complain to the board then! Oh, I forgot, there’s no fucking board!” Dark blue eyes smirked at him, slipping his hands into his inside pocket. But I didn’t hear the rest of their argument because the female whisked me away and took me backstage again.

1.5 million.

Everyone was whispering around me, but I remained seated on a couch, my knees pressed against my chest as I hugged them. I didn’t care if they could see ,through my skirt or my thongs. I was trying to make sense of what happened.
