BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 51

ADAN STONE.

I tossed the envelope with cash on my desk without taking my eyes off Blade. He was just looking at it but didn’t pick it up yet.

“You’re free to go. I will just call on you if I

need anything more.”

“How about Althea?”

“What about her?”

“Who will take her back to the red mountain?

He asked, as his jaw tightened.

“Part of the deal was to shelter her within

this territory. I want to keep that if she helps

Lucy.”

“She wants to go back to the mountains.

Once you’re done with her, call me. I will

take her back there.”

“Do you like her?”

“It’s none of your business. I’m here just for the task you assigned me.” He sneered,

swiping the envelope from the desk before slipping it into his back pocket.

“Then your job here is done. It’s not your responsibility anymore to take her back to the mountains if she wants to.”

“You’re not letting her out of this territory without me!” He growled.

“Who are you? Her mate?” I chuckled. I was sure now that there was something going on

between them.

“Yes! She’s my mate and if something

happened to her, I will fucking cut you to

pieces.”

“What the fuck. Haven’t you found your mate already?”

“And lost her. But newsflash, Stone. I got a second one, and you still don’t have one.” A smug smirk crossed his face.

He fucking got me there.

“Fuck you!” I hissed at him.

His loud laughter filled my office, but it was

gone in an instant before he pointed a finger at me. “I mean what I said. If anything happens to Althea…”

“Why don’t you stay then? Lucy wants you to protect her.”

“She doesn’t want me.
