Beneath Her Darkness: The Alpha's Little Demon

BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 13

013 – The Beta Couple

BETA COLLIN.

‘Alpha?‘ I reached the Alpha’s mind as soon as we neared the border.

‘Yes?‘

‘We’re approaching the border. Can I lower the partition?‘ He didn’t reply, so I thought it was okay to do so. And so I did.

The partition between us lowered, and the Alpha was startled when it happened. His hand was tucking the stray hairs from the Omega’s face behind her ears. She was sleeping peacefully – on the Alpha’s lap.

‘Roll it up,‘ he ordered me through mindlink, probably so as to not wake up the sleeping female in his arms. His eyes were looking at the ceiling of the car. He was refusing to meet mine.

I rolled the partition up before I let a smile tug on my lips.

I think someone was smitten. I couldn’t remember the last time I saw a female seated on his lap, aside from those females he would hang out with whenever we hit clubs and bars. But never in his car. In fact, in my years of service with the Alpha, he never sat in the back seat. He would always drive the car or sit on the passenger’s side.

Even when we picked up females from somewhere, females he would end up playing with, but they never reached his lap inside his car the way this Omega did. I knew something was odd with his behavior the moment we entered the auditorium where the bid was being held.

This afternoon, I had to force him out of the packhouse to come with me. I literally had to beg him to just check the females out and if none of them interested him, we would leave the feast immediately. But the moment we stepped in, instead of going to the stairs that would lead us to the private viewing room, the Alpha walked straight to the front of the stage.

For a moment, he stayed there without saying anything. I thought he was just checking on the females. I would say they had a pretty good bunch this year, but, of course, none was as beautiful as my mate, Laira.

So when the Alpha decided to turn around, I thought we were heading home.

But he went to the private viewing room and ordered drinks for us. And the next thing I knew, he was handing me a tablet and asking me to continue bidding, and to make sure we would win the Omega. He said the sky was the fucking limit.

I knew Alpha Stone had personal money due to being the only son of Alpha Audrius, but he was looking at me with an expression that said he was willing to send my soul to the devil just to make sure I would win the bid for the Omega.

‘No need to roll my window at the border.

Just tell them I’m asleep. I don’t want anyone to see her for now.‘

‘Yes, Alpha.‘ I chuckled internally, knowing he probably didn’t want the others to see how the Omega’s body was clutching to him like he was a damn bed.

Maybe having the Omega around wouldn’t be that bad. If she could tame Beast, maybe she could control the Alpha’s temper as well. Because lately, he has been a little pain in the ass with his anger issues.

I stopped by the border and checked with the man patrolling for any issues. The weather was chilly on this side of the territory, and the leaves were starting to frost. Soon, winter is coming. Not that the cold bothered us, but we needed to play our part when traveling to human territories or neutral cities. Who the fuck wanted to sport big coats and boots when I’d rather be walking around naked?

‘Babe?‘ Laira’s words dug into my head. ‘ Are you in the territory now?‘
