BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Book 2

Chapter 6 – Three Weeks

PATREA.

Lucius was already gone when I came out of the bathroom, which I was thankful for as I didn’t bring any clothes inside. I was hoping he would not pop back while I was still naked.

But regardless of whether I knew he could come back anytime soon, I took my time walking around in just my underwear. I had no idea what I was aiming for.

After a long time, I had fixed myself and was already ready to head down for breakfast, yet he was still nowhere, and I didn’t know if I was relieved or disappointed.

I was already gearing up to agree with his request, but maybe I should wait until he asks for it again. Maybe something came up in the underworld that needed his attention.

When I finally made it out of my bedroom, I saw Althea stepping out of her room at the same time, and happiness was evident on her face.

“Wow! You looked so fresh, Patrea!” She exclaimed. “How was your night?”

“I didn’t have any nightmares. Not even any dreams at all. I slept the whole six hours without any interruption.” I couldn’t stop beaming at her as we walked together down the stairs.

“And all this time Lucius was there? He didn’t leave?”

I just nodded my head, a warm smile curling on my lips.

“Maybe he’s the one giving you those nightmares?” “I don’t think so. Because when I told him maybe it was an incubus, I swear I saw him getting angry. If it was him, he would just laugh it off.” And something in me didn’t want to believe he would do that.

“He likes you.”

“He doesn’t.”

“If I remember it right, he almost died twice to save you. Am I right?”

“He’s lusting after me. There wasn’t anything else to it.”

“Same thing. So did you do it?”

“Did what?”

“Have sex.”

“Althea!”

She threw her head back as she giggled, while her hand was holding onto the railings. “Why not? I mean, it’s probably the reason you had a good sleep. So was he good in bed?”

I chuckled softly before I shook my head. “We just slept.”

“I’m already eighteen, so no need to lie to me,” she groaned.

“We didn’t do anything. I swear to your mother’s grave.”

“He’s a demon!”

“I know that!”
