BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 29
029 – Missing Him
LUCY.
Two days turned into four, and then into six. By then, I was already in misery. I have never felt so unproductive and useless as I felt at the moment. Although my body was functioning, my heart and my brain weren’t.
I miss Alpha Stone.
And even if the Beta and Gamma Females told me that Alpha Stone could handle himself well in times of danger, I couldn’t help but worry for him and hated myself for ignoring him before he left.
If this was how it felt to be away from him for just a few days, what more if he asked me to leave for good? I had no idea how many times I asked
Laira if she had gotten any messages from her Beta, but she always had the same answer, nothing yet. And although I could see the longing in her eyes, she was handling herself well. Maybe she was already used to this.
I spent my days training to increase my stamina. Lena was giving me a personal workout plan, and I didn’t need to hide. my own strength this time after Laira told me I was bluffing about being weak.
So there was no point in pretending, and I just had to tell them I did work out while I was in the orphanage, and I did morning and evening runs. But I wished we could do more to help my wolf because, even with thorough training, I couldn’t feel any changes in my body.
Aside from that, Laira gave me books that I could read. As much as I hated reading, I wanted to know more about the other species in the world, so when she told me this house had a big library and a wide variety of books, I got excited. Maybe I could find answers to my cross-breed nature.
But then I ended up reading romance novels instead. And it was crazy that for every male lead, I always pictured Alpha Stone. I was finally convinced that I was really crushing on the grumpy old Alpha.
I was lost in the story I was reading when the door to the library opened and Lena stepped in. “Lucy!”
I shut the book and looked at her, confusion on my face. “Is there something wrong?”
“Kingston got a word from the border. The Alpha and his convoy just entered the territory.”
I pushed my body up from the couch and found myself with parted lips, but I had no idea what to say. All the while, my heart began to thud wildly, as if it would jump out of my chest.
“Yes, the Alpha will be home soon! So if you want to fix yourself, you better get going!” Lena’s words snapped me from my thoughts. I nodded my head, but I remained in my spot. “Okay.”
Lena laughed before she grabbed the book from my hand and dropped it on the couch before she went behind me. Her hands grabbed my shoulders as she pushed me toward the door. “You need to move or he’ll be here and you’re still standing here. Laira is already in the shower, so if you…”
“Yes!” I finally snapped myself out of shock and realized what I needed to do. ”How much time do I have?”!
“It’s forty-five minutes from the border, but if it’s the Alpha driving, they might be here sooner, so let’s say thirty minutes.”
I didn’t say anything more and dashed out of the library, running my way up the stairs while Lena was laughing heartily as she followed me out.
As soon as I entered the main bedroom, I let my eyes wander the room before I decided I needed to change the bedsheets and the pillowcases. The Alpha must be tired and, who knows, maybe he didn’t have a decent bed to sleep on, so it would be better if he had fresh sheets.
I began moving my ass and in just a few minutes I was done with it. I gathered the dirty sheets and was about to run out of the bedroom to deposit them in the laundry area when I bumped into Lena as soon as I opened the door. She was about to knock with a paper bag in her hand.
“Give me that.” She took the dirty sheets off my arms and I didn’t even object – it would give me more time to shower. ” And take this.”
“What’s this?” I asked after taking it from her hand.
“Some lingerie. Laira went out to buy some days ago to prepare for her mate’s homecoming, and she bought some for you too, since she couldn’t take you with her.” The Alpha instructed both females. that I was not to be taken too far from the packhouse.
