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

Chapter 30 - Paradise In Hell PATREA.

Lucius left me in the tower so he could check my home and make sure nothing was burning or destroyed except for my furniture.

Also, he could park my car elsewhere, so no one would question my absence from the house for a few days.

He said it would only take him a few minutes, but it felt like an eternity already, and he hadn’t returned yet.

He left me in the dining hall, where they prepared human food for me, but I didn’t have an appetite to eat.

I’d been staring at my food for along time, and as much as I wanted to skip dinner, I knew I had to eat or I might end up being too weak compared to Nyneve.

I wanted to be prepared once I saw her again.

I had to ask Lucius to bring me some witchcraft paraphernalia.

He told me as well that he kept most of my belongings from my cottage, which I really appreciated, as most of them were hard to find but Lucien had somehow managed to bring them to me.

At least here, I had no restrictions when it came to practicing my spells and charms.

Yes here.I didn’t even bother to think if I wanted to be here or not.I just jumped in and gave myself willingly to Lucius.I knew he might see it as cowardice to be left alone in my home, but the truth was, despite the fact that he looked like he would kill Nyneve, I wanted to make sure the she-demon would not be able to harm him back.

My desire to protect him made me forget that he was now powerful and that Nyneve was just a young she-demon.

And perhaps I just wanted to ensure that Lucius would not succumb to lust if she used her seduction and charm on him again.

I was not willing to share him with anyone, so I was marking my territory when I jumped into his arms and plunged my soul back into hell.I smiled, despite myself.I was claiming him.

Oh well, no one had to know.I would enjoy it as much as I could, but I knew being the current apple of his eye was putting my life in danger.I just hoped that by the time the King of Kalmerus was tired of me, I would be strong enough to protect myself.I pushed food into my mouth as I remembered Nyneve again.I was lucky Lucius didn’t snap at me for distracting him when she got away.But I wondered where she was and what her next plan would be.

"Patrea!"

Lucy’s voice rang in the dining hall, and my head tilted to the left, from where her voice came.She was rushing to me, and I immediately stood up, throwing my arms around her as we hugged each other.

Adan and Lucius were approaching.

"Are you okay?" She asked, her voice laced with concern, as she pulled her body away from me and checked me.

"I’m okay," I answered.

"Oh, Goddess. You had bruises!"

She ran her knuckles along my cheek, and it made me smile.

Lucy had indeed become a mother hen the moment she became the Luna of her pack.

"You know, Lucius can fix and heal that," she said.

"Yup, tell her that. It looks like she doesn’t trust me."

Lucius chuckled, and I rolled my eyes at him.
