BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 78

078 – A Taste of Her

LUCIUS.

I appeared in the exact room where Patrea was. It was morning in the human. world, and the witch had just come out of the shower, based on the way her hair

was still dripping wet.

And, yes, I did catch her in her towels. Although seeing a portion of her skin gave me a lust rush, I tried not to show how much she was affecting me.

“What are you doing here?” She snapped at me as her grip on her towel tightened.

“Checking on you,” I answered nonchalantly.

“Oh, spirits! Leave me alone, Lucius. I

didn’t wish to leave your realm just for

another demon as annoying as you to

follow me around.”

“Instead of quacking like a duck, why don’t you turn around and go back to the bathroom and put clothes on? Unless, of course, you want to put in a show for me!”

“For you? Until hell freezes!”

“I can make it freeze in hell today… Don’t challenge me if you’re not going to do your end of the bargain.”

I slightly bounced to my feet and glided in the air before moving my body to lay down in her bed, but I was just floating over, not touching her sheets, and placed my arms behind my head as I smiled smugly at her.

Riling up the witch had been the highlight of my boring day, and seeing

her in her towels was the biggest bonus. Nothing could go wrong today.

“Cut the crap and just say what do you want this time?”

“Waiting for a little show?” I answered, a smug smirk crossing my face.

“Spirits, Lucius! I’m too old for this

game. In case you forgot, I’m in my 50s. I’m not a teenager anymore. So flirting doesn’t work with me.”

“Seriously? You’re 50?” I feigned a gasp. In case you’re not aware, I’m two centuries old, so you’re still very young in my eyes. Teenager, I would say.”

“What do you want?” Her voice was

louder now as she gritted her teeth in

annoyance.

The veins popping in her neck and the way the water dripped over them were making her look sexier.

“Aside from taking those towels off…”

“Out!” She yelled, finger pointing to the door and I couldn’t help but laugh out

loud before I flicked my fingers

In seconds, her towel was gone, and she

was fully clad in regular, tight-fitting jeans and a light-colored, floral blouse

that accentuated her flawless skin.

“If you just put on clothes right away,

then you could have avoided tempting the

devil.”

“Well, if you have the decency…”

“I don’t have.” I cut her off. “No one taught me about decency. But if you’re willing to be my teacher, I can assure you that I will make a very good student.

She turned around and grabbed another towel before she began drying off her hair and headed for the bathroom. “I don’t have time for you and your games. Leave.”

I was expecting her to shut the door, but she left it open as she fixed herself in front of the mirror by the sink, which was

visible from where I was.

“Where are you heading?” I asked, ignoring her words.

“None of your business.

“If you plan to go to Stone’s territory, then I suggest forgetting about it.” I rose. from lying down and sat in a crossed- legged position, still floating over the

bed. I was enjoying annoying the old

witch in front of me.

“I’m not your puppet.”

“I am your guardian angel.” I clasped my hands together and raised them parallel to my chest before I let a ring of fire build

a halo around my head.
