Beneath Her Darkness: The Alpha's Little Demon

Chapter 102

102 – Adan & Sheena
ADAN STONE.
Since the procedure with Blade didn’t have any problems, Althea proceeded to do the
same for her and the unconscious Sheena.
I felt bad having to drag Collin’s sister into
this, but we were left with no choice. Sheena had always been a pleasant person, and I
knew if she knew the whole thing, she would be willing to help, but since she had no
idea. about our contact with the underworld, it was safer for her to be left out as much as
we could. 1
Enter title…
She was staying in the city with their aunt since she went to university, so people in the
pack would not be surprised to see two
Sheenas while Althea is there. The only thing was, we had to be careful that no one
would see Althea, aka Sheena, around the packhouse to avoid questions from our pack
members once my rightful Luna came home.
After Althea took Sheena’s form, Collin drove his sister back to the city while we all
waited for him to come back.
Blade and Althea would be coming home with Collin, while Patrea and I would enter the
demon world in a few hours.
“Does Lucy still have no idea I’m coming?” I asked Lucius as he handed me a cigarette.
“No. She doesn’t. We will still go with the plan, and I have to remind you again:
Whatever you see in there and whatever act Lucy does, don’t show any emotions.”
“This is f*cking hard.”
“You don’t have a say at this point. Do it or your emotions will blow us up.
I took a deep breath and puffed on the cigarette in my hand. “Are you sure the demons
helping us are really on our side?”
“Yes. Those are my demons. My life is tied to them. If I die, they die. And if they betray
me, they will perish, never to return except with the lost soul in the depths of hell.”
“Those souls that you take the unworthy ones, the unwanted – where do they end up?
“Pits of hell. The hottest part of hell. They will burn for eternity, and they will feel every bit
of it. Their souls will never die, will never be reborn.” He answered, and I swallowed
hard.
“How about you? If you die, where will your soul go?”
“If Hades or the G*ds of the underworld deemed me worthy, I will be a soul floating in
the underworld. I will never be able to take a physical form, but I will still be around, and I
can command demons…”
“Will you be able to visit the pits of hell?”
“Yes. The anguish in there keeps the living demons and the dead demons alive. We feed
off of their pain and hatred.”
“I see.”
“Why are you even bothered? If you die in this war against my father, you won’t be there.

You’ll be returned to the moon.”
“I know.” Unless the g*d of hell desires your soul, I told myself. “And Lucy, will she be at
the Underworld too?” 1
“I have no answer for that. She’s a part werewolf, and she’s always loved that part.
I’m thinking her soul will be returned to the moon unless she fully embraces herself as a
demon, maybe she can choose which realm she wants to be returned to. But that’s just
my thoughts.”
I closed my eyes and leaned my back on the tree behind me. His words were shattering
what was left of my heart. What I wished for was a lifetime with Lucy, and I would do
everything in my power to keep us alive as much as I could because, after this, I no
longer had a guarantee of eternal life with her.
ALTHEA.
I was quiet the whole time we were driving back to Alpha Stone’s territory. I had to keep
addressing Blade as Stone, and from time to time, I would slip because he was forcing
met to talk with him, as he said we needed to be comfortable with each other, but it was
annoying me.
Many things were running through my mind.
I worried for Patrea and Alpha Stone, the same way I worried for Lucy. I knew the part
I was playing was minimal compared to what they had to go through, so I vowed to
myself that I would do my best to perfect this deception to make sure Alpha Stone could
move freely in the Underworld. But having Blade around me made it harder.
He was surely enjoying this part, as he had been smiling the whole time he was
conversing with Collin and asking things. about the Alpha’s routine and the time for
breakfast, and what he usually eats.
Thankfully, Sheena had never stayed the night at the packhouse, so I could be myself,
but I had to be careful that her parents didn’t see me there or everything would be even
more messed up.
But we had Collin, Laira, Kingston, and Lena helping us, so I should not worry about
blowing this up. 1
The packhouse was already deserted when we reached home. It was past midnight, and
thankfully, the previous Alphas and Lunas. were already asleep. At least we didn’t have
to deal with them tonight.
“Goodnight, Alpha, Sheen…” Collin smiled warmly at me as he stopped on the second.
floor. This was where his and Laira’s room was, while Blade and I needed to proceed to
the third floor for Alpha Stone’s room.
I went up to Collin and wrapped my arms around him before I gave him a peck on his
cheek. “Good night, Cole. And thank you…”
He ruffled my hair and shifted his gaze to Blade. “Take care of my sister, and just
mindlink me tomorrow if you’re not joining breakfast.”
Before we left, Alpha Stone inducted Blade as part of his pack, so the mindlink would
work between him and the Beta and G*mma.
Blade didn’t reply and just gave him a salute before his arm went around my shoulders
as he guided me back to the stairs. I leaned my body closer to him and walked quietly.
My mind and my body were tired.
I was glad I didn’t pass out after the two spells. It helped that Mama Patrea was there,
and she was the one who performed the shield spell because that one could take too
much energy as well.
Blade unlocked the door, but before he let me in, he placed a soft kiss on the crown of
my head.
I wanted to scoff at him for overacting, but then I reminded myself that we had no idea if
someone was watching or not.
“Goodnight Adan…” I crawled to my side of the bed after putting on silk shorts and
spaghetti-strap pajamas.
“You need to start calling me love.” Blade winked at me as he watched me. He was
sitting up and leaning his back on the headboard. His upper body was naked, and I was
not sure what he had on the lower part since the blanket was covering his body.
“Why can’t I just call you Adan? Or Stone?” I asked, raising my brows but still smiling at
him.
“Everyone calls me that. But no one has called me love, so let’s reserve that for you. He
answered playfully.
“In your dreams…” I laughed sarcastically before I remembered I was supposed to act in
love with Alpha Stone. “Fine… Good night, my love.”
I slipped my body inside the blanket and waited for him to say goodnight. It felt weird
that, despite knowing it was Alpha Stone’s form beside me, I could imagine Blade as he
even the way his mouth twitched was how Blade does it. was
I shut my eyes, annoyed that he didn’t even bother to respond even after I called him ‘
love’ as he suggested.
“Come here, and give me a good night kiss.” He suddenly spoke, making my eyes snap
open.
“What?”
“Come here.”
“Why me? You want the kiss, then come over here.” I wanted to sound sweet, but I
