Beneath Her Darkness: The Alpha's Little Demon

Chapter 035 - Princess of Seduction PATREA.

"Because nobody fucking bothered to tell me that my mate was being hunted by a fucking demon!"

I could feel Blade’s anger radiating from his body, and if I hadn’t been worried about Lucius or thought that Althea was in his arms, I would have stunned him for being grumpy.

"The demon was after me, and I had no idea she would come for Althea," I told him.

"And why did you come here if you were aware that you were putting her in danger with your presence?"

My eyes squinted, and I was so close to snapping and frying his brain if I didn’t remember how my granddaughter protected him.

Everything happened so fast earlier, but it didn’t slip my eyes that despite the flames burning her skin, Althea conjured a spell to shield Blade the moment this giant shifted into his wolf.

She placed a protective spell around him even if she was the one in real danger, and it only told me my granddaughter still cares about him, and that alone was enough reason for me not to punish him for his attitude.

"Blade, calm down.We all care about Althea.Patrea has every right to her, so you can’t just take her without her permission."

Lucy spoke calmly behind me, and my eyes drifted to Althea, who was now unconscious in his arms.

It must have terrified her when Blade leaped to her and used too much energy in a short period to protect him.

Blade turned around and let out a deep sigh before he spoke ina calmer tone.

"I just want to make sure Althea is protected.And I don’t think I can be assured of that unless I’m the one watching her."

"But what can you do if a demon attacks you?" I asked him.

"I fucking don’t know.But I know I will not let them take her."

"If you want to go to the underworld, Althea will be safer with Blade.Regardless of whatever happened between them in the past, I’m sure he will not let harm come her way." Lucy told me, her hand holding my forearm.

I didn’t doubt that either, because it seemed like Blade thought no one was allowed to hurt Althea except him.

"Fine.Take her until I’m ready to take her back again."

I let out a deep sigh before slipping my hand on the slit of my dress and taking the coin from the secret pocket inside my dress, handing it to Blade.

"What the fuck is that?" He asked, almost growling.

Lucy couldn’t help but giggle, but she leaned over to check the thing in my hand.

"Stop growling.It’s a coin.Rub it three times, and Lucius will come wherever you are.Now before you complain, I’m giving you this because of my granddaughter.If her life is in danger, I don’t care if you and your whole pack will protect her.These demons are more powerful than us, so you need to make sure you summon Lucius. Think of Althea before your ego."

He laid out his hand, and I slammed it onto his palm.

"Three times, don’t forget that."

He didn’t say anything, but he held the coin tightly.
