Beneath Her Darkness: The Alpha's Little Demon

BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 39

039-Lucky Lucy

GRAND ALPHA AURELIUS.

Of all my grandpups, only Adan grew up under my watchful eyes. The rest were brought up in the South, and I would just occasionally see them.

But Adan, I have held him since the very first day and have seen him through his first step, his first tooth, and the first time he shifted into his wolf at fourteen.

I loved all my grandpups, but Adan would always be special. He was like me.

I knew him inside out, and I knew the struggle within him. Despite the tough facade he showed everyone, inside him was an insecure boy who thought he was not worthy to be an Alpha. He would always say that Suzanne’s bloodline, my eldest daughter, should have been the rightful

Alpha. But despite that, he worked hard to prove it every day so as not to disappoint me and his people.

He was a perfect Alpha. But he was missing one thing.

A Luna.

Two weeks ago, we talked over the phone, and I told him not to feel pressured about getting a Luna or an heir. Because if it came to the point that he would not be able to produce an heir, we would have Alonso, Alexa’s son. Or if not, Sebastian’s or Anya’s son. He had nephews who could take over.

It didn’t matter to me who would be Pack Alpha as long as they came from my bloodline, and as long as they were conceived out of love. It was the sole reason I refused to hand down the title to Suzanne and opted for Audrius instead to take over the pack after me.

So when the news that Adan had finally taken home a female reached me, I knew something was off. Adan, for the life of me, had never brought home a female, and two weeks ago, he still did not have one.

It might be his way of proving to me again that he could produce an heir or find a Luna, but I would not be played for a fool. If Adan would have a Luna and an heir, it must be out of love, not out of a contract.

So here I was, playing the bad guy again, just to make sure my grandpups would never fall into the trap of a loveless union.

“What the fuck was that, grandpa?” Adan yelled at me the moment Lucy was out of earshot.

He had never raised his voice at me in the ten years that he was pack Alpha and he had done it multiple times today.
