Beneath Her Darkness: The Alpha's Little Demon

120 - Deal With the Demon LUCIUS.

I walked carefully to where Patrea was sleeping.I was contemplating whether I should wake her up or not but finally decided on the latter.I had no idea what her mood would be if I woke her up.

Maybe it was better if she was sleeping, at least I would be free to look at her.I showered mist over her, an enchantment to keep her sleeping.

With the power I got from Lucien, I would be able to carry the enchantments even if I crossed realms, so she would still be asleep once I took her back to Stone’s home.I should be sending her on her own, but I wanted to make sure she would not end up somewhere far from where she should be, so I decided that I would take her there myself.I wanted her in Stone’s territory, and I hope the Alpha will keep his promise to let the witch and her granddaughter live within his pack.

It was my only way to keep an eye on her.

My hand reached for her cheek, brushing my knuckles gently against her soft skin.

I had no idea how long it had already been since I met Patrea, but it amazed me that, until now, I had not made an aggressive move to lure her into my charm.I think I was no longer living up to my title as the Prince of Lust.

Not that I wasn’t lusting after the witch.

Because I was sure that I was, but there was something about her that stopped me from using the same charms I was using for the females that were in my bed.

I wanted her to like me just the way I am.

Even if I had no idea who I truly was.

And knowing that she didn’t like the underworld was already a red flag that things couldn't be better between us.

Maybe I would just take the one night and move on.

That was the plan, right? Taste her and then forget about her, like all the other females before her.

It sounded so easy, but it was making my body feel heavy.

To be honest, as much as I wanted her, I didn’t want to force her to spend one night with me if she didn’t want to.

Aside from the fact that I had never previously forced myself on any females, I didn’t want her to hate me if I did.

Fuck me! I’m a king now, I should focus on more important things than lusting over a female I could never have.

I let out a deep sigh and took off the blanket that covered her body.

I let my eyes memorize every inch of her before I hooked an arm under her knees and slipped the other under her neck.

As soon as I was carrying her, I transported our bodies to the room described by Lucija, and in a blink of an eye, I found myself in a bedroom that was dimly lit by just the side lamps.

I adjusted the blanket carefully while still carrying her, then carefully placed her on the bed.I could hear noises outside of the room.
