Beneath Her Darkness: The Alpha's Little Demon

Chapter 127

127 - Family LUCY.

I stayed with Althea for a little more time as we talked about her and her plans.She wanted to experience going to school.I didn’t know she had never been to a real school.

Everything she learned was taught to her by Adora.

It was also the reason she never had any friends at all and had never really felt attracted to anyone.

Her world was limited to the spells and magic that she learned at an early age.

That's why I couldn’t blame her if she didn’t have the courage I had in me when I forced my way into Adan’s life.

Despite being powerful, Althea was still new when it came to falling in love, and Blade rejecting her was surely not a good introduction to it.

After our heart-to-heart talk, Althea and I separated.

She went back to her room, and I headed downstairs to find Adan.

I wanted a word with him and Blade.I wanted this sorted out.I wasn’t going to force Blade to accept Althea, but he had to be man enough to face her and at least give their bond a try.

If nothing else works out, they should just disconnect the bond rather than ignore each other.It was unfair to let Althea keep his mark if he had no intention of even attempting to try this relationship with her.

I did understand, however, that the rejection could make his wolf weak, but he also needed to do his part and not just depend on Althea if he wanted to save his wolf.

But then, if he were a first -blood Alpha like what Adan told me, he should be strong enough to survive multiple rejections, right? Was he just making an excuse? I knocked softly at Adan’s office door, which opened almost immediately, and behind it was Adan.

Adan’s warm smile made my heart somersault in my chest.

My Alpha was so handsome that just looking at him made me forget for a moment why I wanted to talk with him.

"Hello there, beautiful."

His hands held my waist as he pulled me closer, and he leaned his face forward, letting his mouth trail kisses on my neck.

"You smell so fucking good...Want to have breakfast now?"

"Adan..."

I moaned as my hands clung to his shirt while his mouth became aggressive on my neck.

But then I remembered why I wanted a word with him.I snapped myself out of the trance he put me in and spoke calmly.

"We need to talk."

"I assumed you were here for hanky panky."

He chuckled before he lifted me off the ground and my legs automatically coiled around his hips.He took me inside the office and closed the door behind us.

My arms were locked around his neck as I dipped my mouth into it, sucking his skin.I was just like him, I couldn't stop myself around him.

"I thought you wanted to talk," he growled lowly.

His hand on my ass tightened when I swiped my tongue on his marked spot.

"Lucy...

"Enough of that," I said as I pulled away from his neck before it led to something else and wriggled my ass so he would let me go, which he did right away.
