BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 63

063 – A Glimpse of His Soft Side

ALTHEA.

“Oh, Spirits! Blade! I told you I’m not leaving this territory!” I yelled in frustration

at him for the hundredth time as he shoved

my clothes inside my luggage, and I kept pulling them out.

We’re playing a game of tug of war, and up until this moment, no one was winning.

He wanted to leave this place as soon as Kingston told us that Lucien had taken

Alpha Stone to the underworld, and Lucy had followed them. But before she left, she told Kingston to make sure I was safe because her father would come for me.

With the shield up, I thought I would be safer here, but Blade thought otherwise. But what does he know?

“You have no say on this one, Althea! We’re

leaving! We’ll go to a safer place where the demon lord can’t reach you!” He snapped at me, tugging the last pieces of clothing from my hands before shoving them inside my bag. He zipped it up and threw it by the door,

where it landed with a loud thud.

“This is my life on the line! Why do you get to decide for me?”

“I’m not going to let another mate die before my eyes, Althea. Even if that means

putting myself in front of you to catch all the fire! I will fucking do it if I get an assurance you will come out of this alive!” His jaw twitched as his eyes dilated into darkness.

I swallowed and opened my mouth to speak, but the words got caught in my throat. How do I retort back from that?

“Get moving! We don’t have all night!”

“But we will be protected from here. We are

more vulnerable if wo

go outside the

territory.”

“Do you think your shield can protect you? How long have you been doing shields? I’m not a witch, but I’ve met a lot of them.

Unless you are a hundred years old, I don’t think you alone could hold back a demon lord from entering this territory. And I’m not going to take fucking chances just

because you think you can! Now get your ass rolling and pack your witchy gadgets, or I will do it myself!” 1

I rolled my eyes at him, but I hurried to the desk, where I laid out some of my potions and books. I carefully gathered the runes in

a small black pouch and placed them in my

pocket before I tucked the rest of it in a black bag I kept handy all the time.

Blade knew fairly well I didn’t want anyone touching my things, and despite being

annoyed with him at the moment, I was

grateful he remembered not to touch them.

“But where do you think we can go? I’m sure

I’m not safer in the mountains than I am

here.”

“You mentioned your ancestors being part

of a coven. I knew a coven of witches

somewhere in Salenda. We can start from

there, and maybe they can track which coven your family belongs to, or maybe they will take you in.” His voice was calmer now.

“But how about you?” I asked, making sure my voice didn’t break, although my heart clenched in pain.

A coven of witches, according to my mother, was not allowing werewolves to live with them. They accept them as visitors for a few days but never accept them as members of
