Beneath Her Darkness: The Alpha's Little Demon

141 - Two Alphas BLADE.

Five hours after I arrived at the Mystic Pack territory, I was already gearing up for a counterattack to save my pack.I wanted to focus on it and avenge my brother, but I couldn’t.

Althea kept seeping inside my head, which she had been doing since I met her.

Before heading to the warrior’s building, I saw piles of photos on one of the tables inside Stone’s office.

Out of curiosity, I went and checked on it, only to see photos from Aiden’s blessing ceremony a month ago.

They were many, but my eyes only focused on the ones that had Althea in them.

She colored her hair a bit brighter than the regular dark plum that she had, but she was still beautiful as always.Her face was full of life.

She was smiling, and there were no traces of misery in her eyes.

Unlike me.

Before today, I had spent the last five months trying to find myself.

I was lost more than ever.I ran away from my pack because losing Sol was too much for my heart to handle.

She was not even my Luna yet when her life was cut short.I couldn’t understand why she was taken when we hadn’t spent much time together yet.I loved Sol with all my heart, and I knew no one could replace her.

Until Althea arrived.

I wanted Althea, but my head couldn’t accept that I had to let go of Sol so I could welcome her fully into my life.

Thad no idea what the Goddess was up to when she created two mates for me.

Was this a test I was supposed to pass? Was this something to prove how much I loved Sol? What about Althea? Why was she wasting a young female’s life on me? I couldn’t understand it.

And I was not sure if anyone would understand the turmoil within me.I wondered what Adan would feel if he lost Lucy and all of a sudden another female came along and took his attention.I was sure he would be more broken than ever.

Because that was what I was feeling now.

Broken.

And guilty for something I had no control over.

I couldn’t accept the fact that Althea was slowly taking Sol’s place in my heart.I was sure Sol could see that wherever she is now, and I wondered if she was suffering when she realized my heart was not all hers anymore.I wanted Althea.

But I was not sure what to do at this point.I was too old for her, too broken, and [ didn’t think she would be fine with that.

She deserved a man whose life was not tainted with anger and misery.She was too bright and lively for the darkness I carried within me.She deserved a man who was more than just a fragment of what I was before I was broken.

"Alpha, are you ready?"

by the open door snapped me out of my thoughts, and I immediately nodded my head while I shoved any thoughts of Althea to
