BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 33

033 – Darling Lucy

ADAN STONE.

Lucy was still asleep even after breakfast. Maybe I worked her really hard overnight, but I couldn’t stop myself. Six days without her felt like fucking years.

But as much as I wanted to just cuddle with her today, I let her sleep and continued with my day as usual. I was on the other side of the territory, checking the trees being cut by big tractors that would supply the woods for this part of my territory.

I actually had no business here. I had men who managed the wood-cutting section to make sure the whole territory had enough for the whole winter, but I never slacked off when it came to my pack. I checked everything I could with my own eyes and let them know that I expected the utmost service for every task assigned to them.

So far, there have been no problems here. This part of the territory had abundant trees, unlike the rest, where I had to make sure we continued to plant and cultivate young ones so the future generation would have something left for them.

‘Alpha Stone?’

‘Yes, Laira?’

‘You have guests waiting for you here at the packhouse. They will be staying for lunch?’

‘So they invited themselves to lunch? Are these my parents? Tell them I’m still busy, but I will visit them soon.’

‘No, Alpha. Your parents and grandparents went directly to their estate so they could rest. Alpha Aeon and Luna

Alexa are here with their pups. They wanted to stay here at the packhouse.’

No wonder Dad requested that Gamma Kingston pick them up at the airport. My niece and nephew were with them, and we all never slacked off when it came to the pups’ security.

‘Why was I not informed they were coming?’

‘We were not aware as well, Alpha. Even Gamma Kingston was surprised to see them at the airport.’

‘Hmmm…’

‘Alpha, Luna Alexa insisted you come home right away.’
