BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 71
071 – Future Ruler of Kalmerus
LUCIUS.
I transported us to Lucija’s chamber, and I helped her put Stone in her bed. I knew she had many questions, but at the moment, she wasn’t asking any. She was busy attending to her mate and it was to my advantage. I didn’t want to tell her
anything more at the moment than what
she needed to know.
“I have to go now. I have other things to do,” I told her after a while of watching her clean up Stone’s body.
He looked like he was fucking dead to me, but his chest was moving, which meant he was still alive.
“But… what if I need you?” Lucija stood up from the bed and faced me.
“Then reach out to me. I won’t block my
mind.”
“Do you think Lucien will come back
soon?”
“I don’t think so. He wants to find the witch, so I’m sure he will search the whole North for her.”
“Will you let me know if he returns?”
“Of course. But what are your plans? Will
you return Stone to his cell?”
“No. Definitely not. I just want to be prepared when he comes back because
I’m sure he will raise hell if he finds out I took him out of the dungeons.”
“Raise hell? You’re already in hell.” I chuckled before I let out a deep sigh, and my expression turned serious. “Lucija, you need to control your fire. If you snap and your fire comes out, you can burn the
whole place. And it won’t kill Lucien, me, or any other demons, but I am sure it will affect the man there, and it will backfire
on you.”
She nodded her head, but I wanted to make sure she understood the severity of letting out fire uncontrolled.
“If I’m not around to remind you, you need to remind yourself to calm down. You have a wolf, right?”
She nodded her head.
“Make her useful. Tell her to remind you so she has some use here and not just resting there in your head.”
Lucija’s mouth twitched as her eyes dilated, but it was just for a few seconds. Her wolf was trying to surface, which impressed me because, despite the enchantment around the tower, she was able to show me a glimpse of her through
Lucija’s eyes.
I chuckled as I pointed at her. “I made
your wolf angry. Remind me to stay away once you can shift.”
“My wolf is not useless.” She glared at me.
“Whatever,” I said before turning around and disappearing from her room without saying anything else.
I transported my body on the stairs going up to my room. I could have gone directly inside my chamber, but I wanted time to think, and walking helped.
My mind had been racing for the past few days. I literally had no idea what my next
move would be. There were many
speculations in my head, and I didn’t
know what to believe anymore.
But one thing I knew for sure: I needed
Lucija on my side.
I might be older than her, but I knew she had a power far greater than mine. How did I find out? I wasn’t born yesterday. If you’d been living around my father,
Lucien, for decades, you would get to know him inside and out.
He had never behaved strangely until Lucija moved in with us.
I had always known that by the time he retired as the ruler of Kalmerus,
Guillermo was most likely to take over. Guillermo was three centuries older than
me, and Lucien had always favored him over everyone else, including me.
Of course, why would he choose me? I
