BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 35
035 – Lucien
ADAN STONE.
“Now!” I slammed my palm on the table, and Lucy’s body jolted at the impact created. Her eyes widened as she stared at me with shock, but I could see defiance in her eyes.
I was expecting her to lash out at me, but instead, she stood up and excused herself from the table before walking away.
The age and the color of her hair – I could let it go. She might have thought it was unnecessary, but hiding everything about knowing her father was the one that set me off.
I asked her about it not just once but all the time, and she would deny it. What the fuck was so hard about telling me who her father was? Did she commit a crime against him?
The moment she left the dining room, I threw the table napkin on the table, pushed my chair, and stood up.
Aeon and Alexa stood up as well, and in seconds, Alexa was already in front of me, her hand holding my chest, stopping me from following Lucy.
“Can you calm down, Adan?”
I held her wrist and gently pulled it away from my body. “This is between us. I apologize for ruining your lunch.”
I didn’t wait for her to say anything, and I just walked away, but I could hear footsteps behind me.
“Adan,” Aeon’s voice was firm. And despite the fact that I didn’t want anyone meddling with my affair, I knew better than to disrespect any of my family members.
I turned my body around to face him, slipping my hands inside my pockets. He stopped in front of me, his face void of any emotion.
“I’m not sure how much you knew about Lucy, but it looked like she was hiding many things from you.” He began.
“You noticed that too?” I scoffed sarcastically.
“I meant well, and I’m not taking sides, but that female up there,” He pointed a
finger on the floor above the staircase. “. is an orphan. She might have a father, but I am fully aware she never liked him. She was raised by rogue parents, and we have no idea where she was for the last nine years but somehow she came out alive.
Alexa had given up hope that we would find her. So please, give her the benefit of the doubt. At least for Alexa.”
“I’m not going to do anything to her, I just don’t like her lying.”
“Some people are not comfortable sharing things that hurt them. At some point, we all lie to protect something. Don’t forget I pulled out a big lie to protect your cousin, and I will do it again in a heartbeat if I need to.”
I brushed my palms over my face before. letting out a big sigh.
“I hope it doesn’t matter to you if she’s a rogue or human, or maybe a fucking toad shifter or something,” Aeon added. I chuckled. Toad? Nah. A bunny perhaps.
“No, it doesn’t. She could be a spider too, but I hated being lied to.”
“We all do. But let me ask you, do you like her? Or is this just because you needed her so everyone will stop asking you?” I motioned for him to follow me and ushered him to a small receiving room nearby. I closed the door and stood in front of it before I broke the news to him.
“I think she’s my mate.”
“How did you know? She doesn’t have a wolf.” He might have smelled her.
