BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 89

089 – Balls of Fire

ADAN STONE.

I barely slept last night, but it was way past midnight when we all went to bed. I

was sharing a room with Kingston, and we spent the whole time just talking and discussing things that he was supposed to do if I were successful in entering the demon realm.

I knew selling my soul to Lucius would be the easiest way in a big risk to take if he died but I needed more than the assurance that I would be able to come out alive. I wanted a guarantee that I could leave the realm anytime I wanted with Lucija beside me. Both of us – alive.

The best option was Hades.

With Lucija being a demon princess and me being mated to her, I had a high

chance that Hades would come if I summoned him, according to Patrea.

I didn’t know such things existed for supernatural beings, because I had no idea if we could summon Selene

whenever we wanted. But perhaps this was only possible for special werewolves or lycans. And I was not one of those.

But I would try Hades. The only problem was – I didn’t have anything to offer in exchange. But I was hoping he would listen to me.

I eventually drifted off to sleep, but it felt like just a nap because as soon as the first ray of sun hit my face, I awoke and prepared for the day. Lucius would be back any time, and I didn’t want to waste time perfecting the new skills I was given.

I didn’t know my ‘meek’ Omega was so powerful that the Alpha in me would be needing her power in times like this. But I

wasn’t complaining, nor did I feel inferior. I wanted my little demon.

Lucy could be the Goddess of all goddesses or the lowest form of being, and I would still want her. And I would still do everything to have her back beside

My eyebrows arched up as Kingston and I entered the small kitchen in this cottage. Lucius’ arm was wrapped around Patrea’s waist as they stared into each other’s eyes. If I were right, I heard

Lucius say he would not die and would make sure he would bring her back to this realm alive. He was assuring her.

But more than that, their position was weird. I didn’t know there was something between them. It only explained why the demon prince was overly protective of her.

What an odd pair. But who was I to judge?

I raised my hands in the air as their heads turned to us, and Patrea immediately

withdrew her body away from him. I flashed them a smug smirk before pulling a chair to sit at the table. “I want to say I’m sorry that I interrupted you guys, but I won’t. I’m hungry, and Patrea promised to make breakfast today, so I’m looking forward to it.”

“No harm done. I was actually here to talk with you,” Lucius replied as he sat in the chair in front of me.

“It doesn’t look like you were looking for me. Unless Patrea was also practicing illusions and pretending to be me. Either way, I don’t think you fancy holding me that way.”

Kingston snickered as he helped Patrea with putting food on the table while the witch remained quiet, but I saw her cheeks turning scarlet red. I had to

apologize later. I just wanted to tease Lucius but didn’t want to disrespect her. She just happened to be pulled along.

“Fuck off.” Lucius sneered at me.

“I will. As soon as I get my Luna back. So what do you have for me? How’s Lucy?”

“She’s doing okay. Getting stronger every day. And she will visit you tonight, she learned way too fast how to summon her succubus form..”

I inhaled deeply as I leaned my back on the chair, and the hair on my skin rose. Lucius told me about Lucy’s ability to have sexual acts in her succubus form,

but the confirmation that it would

happen suddenly gave me cold feet.

I wanted to fucking see her and touch her, but I was not in agreement that I had to pretend that I still couldn’t remember her.

“I know you want to tell her that you remember her, but it will just foil our plans if she finds out. Either she will be devastated that you remembered and are not doing anything, or she will be scared you will do something to take her out there. Lucy is protective of you.”

“But how the fuck do you think I can pretend when I see her?”

“She’ll come in your dreams. So you can’t control how you will react there, right?” Kingston butted in.

“Don’t sleep then.”

“Lucy is not stupid. She will know I’m awake.”

“Lucy has no experience slipping into someone’s sleeping mind. And she knew ordinary humans wouldn’t be able to see her succubus form unless they are asleep. But I’m assuming you will be able to see

her even when you’re awake. So she wouldn’t doubt that you’re not sleeping.”

“And if not?”

“I’ll be watching, and I’ll knock you out, so you need to tell me right away if you see her or not the moment I tell you she’s there.”

“But you’re not staying to fucking watch us!”

“Relax. I never planned to do that.”

“Just making it clear.”

“She’ll be in her demon form, so make

sure you don’t fucking run away wagging your tail,” Lucius added.

“We’ve done it in her demon form, so save your advice…” I was not able to finish my words as Kingston began coughing beside me, and I couldn’t help

but chuckle. It must be weird for him to

hear these things.
