BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 145 – Elliot
ADAN STONE. After we had arrived at the Silver Crest’s packhouse, Blade requested to have an hour or two to
himself.I let him go.
He probably wanted to wash off the blood and dirt from his body.
He refused to speak with anyone, and as much as I understood him, I was expecting him to act like an
Alpha, but he was letting his emotions rule him again.
“Let him grieve.”
Lucy’s voice snapped me from my thoughts.
Her soft hand rubbed against my naked chest, pacifying my emotions, while our gazes followed Blade
as he stepped inside his packhouse.
“He just lost his brother, and I’m sure he could feel it, or worse, he heard from the pack link that he was
not wanted here.”
“Maybe you’re right.But he can’t sulk after this.He has no Beta, and his Gamma is not here.He needs to
step up and be an Alpha for his people.”
“He’s acting this way because he knows you’re here.”
“Once we got everyone settled, we needed to go home and let him manage his pack.”
“Maybe we can leave some warriors with him to help out his men,” I suggested.
“I was thinking of that.And maybe I will leave Collin here for a day or two so he can help Blade with any
plans for rebuilding his pack.”
“You will help him, right?”
“I did help him today.Do you want me to help him some more?”
She nodded her head.
A welcoming expression crossed her face, and I couldn’t help but let out a smug grin.She cared about
him.
“I thought you hated him.”
“I hated his actions but not the person.And right now, despite his pack not wanting him, he’s the best
option they have.Unless you want to challenge him and take his pack?”
Her brows rose as a mischievous grin curled on her plump lips.
“Our territory is already big.Plus, my hands are already full with my Luna and the demon prince.I know I
can handle more, but I don’t want to.You, Aiden, and our pack are enough for me.”
“Good answer, because I’m not sure I’m willing to share more of you with another pack.I want all of you
for myself if I can.”
She answered in a soft voice as her arms locked around my neck.
Whatever expression she carried, my mate was really beautiful.
“I’m all yours, baby…”
I pulled her body closer, pressing my growing erection onto her front, not just so she could feel it, but to
hide it from sight.
Thankfully, there was no longer a crowd around us except for my Beta and a few warriors.
”Goddess, Lucy.You make me want to throw you onto my shoulder and invade a room in this
packhouse so I could fuck the hell out of you.”
“Well, the forest doesn’t sound bad too…”
She smiled seductively while trailing her pointer finger on my nose down to my mouth, which I captured
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtinstantly with my lips and began nibbling on softly.
“You look like you want me to eat you instead of dressing up for a battle,” I spoke in between nibbling
on her finger.
She arched her body and threw her head back as she chuckled softly.
“I would prefer fighting naked as it’s more comfortable, but I don’t think my Alpha would appreciate
that.So this was the best I could do.”
“Why have you never used this suit while seducing me in bed?”
“Any lingerie or costume I wear are usually gone in seconds, so I thought you don’t mind those at all.”
“I do, but I want what’s inside more.But we can try this body suit later in our room.I’m sure Lucius won’t
mind watching Aiden for the rest of the night.”
This was escalating so fast.
My cock was so fucking hard already.I was just like Blade, letting my emotions— lust specifically — rule
over me when I should be focusing on other things tonight.
Lucy giggled and mentioned that she was looking forward to it but my attention was already drawn
away by the mindlink that I reached from a warrior at the border.
‘Alpha, Alpha Ethan’s father arrived at the border.He has three cars and five warriors with him.I’m not
sure if there are more inside the car. He said he was not here to fight but just wanted a word with you
or Alpha Blade” He stated.
‘I will be there.
Make sure he doesn’t come near the perimeter line”
‘Yes, Alpha”
“What is it?”
Lucy inquired after the mindlink had been severed as her hands went down to my chest.
“Ethan’s father is at the border.He might have felt the pack link disconnected upon Ethan’s death.But I
wonder how he got here so fast unless he was on his way here.”
“Should you call on Blade?” She asked.
“No.Let him rest, I will face him.I’m sure he’s here about his son, not about this pack.”
“So if Ethan is dead, who will lead his pack and territories as Alpha? Does it automatically go to
Blade?”
“No.That’s not how it works.They were fighting for this land only, and there was no intention of a duel
for all packs.Blade doesn’t want his pack.And Ethan has a rightful heir, it will be passed on to him or his
Beta.”
“He no longer has a Beta.I let our warriors kill his Beta while I watched.”
“You what? What happened to try to save everyone except Ethan?”
“Hmmm…”
“It’s okay, he’s not a nice person too.Just like Ethan, he was an egoistic bastard.”
Lucy let out a sigh, and I thought it was out of relief that I was not blaming her for killing him or feeling
guilty about it.But her next word almost made me snap out of my control.
“He tried to claw my heart.”
“He did what?”
I growled, and I felt all eyes were on us.She rubbed her hands gently on my chest, and it helped to
slow my breathing.
“Relax.He would never get to me.He tried but was unsuccessful.Besides, our warriors sprang into
action so quickly that I didn’t even have to raise a finger to kill him.They did it for me without any order,
and they did it in seconds.He’s dead, shredded into pieces even before I could blink an eye.”
“Lucy…”
I closed my eyes and rubbed both my palms on my face.”
Anything else I need to know?”
“I love you…and that I’m proud of you and our warriors.”
A smile tugged on my lips as I withdrew my hands from my face and opened my eyes.
“How could I be angry now?”
She shook her head and smiled beautifully at me, her lips glistening under the light of the moon.
“Calm your heart.We still need to meet Ethan’s father.”
“Do you want to come with me?”
“Yes, I want to see the man who ruined your childhood.Maybe make him pay for it…”
“We can’t kill him if he doesn’t attack.”
“No rules in the North, remember?”
Her eyes glinted.She flashed me her red demon eyes before they went back to normal.
I pecked her lips and then pressed a soft kiss on her forehead.”He’s not worth it.
Killing him for no reason will just turn us into another Ethan.”
She hugged me tightly before nuzzling her nose in the nook of my neck.
“Thank you for keeping me on the line…”
“I’ll always do that…just like you’ve always done for me.”
Lucy and I, together with my Beta transported our bodies to the border, where Ethan’s father, former
Alpha Elizar, was waiting for us.
I watched him stare at us as we walked toward the border’s line, my hand holding my Luna while my
Beta was walking beside her and two warriors behind us.
Elizar had five warriors surrounding him, but I could hear a few more heartbeats on their sides, so I
knew he had men sitting inside the car.
“Let’s cut the pleasantries.I will not pretend that I am pleased to see you, Elizar.State your concern, and
we can end this conversation right away.”
“Where is my son?”
He went directly to the point, just as I expected.
“You know the answer to that.”
“I want his body.”
“The decision lies with the Alpha of this pack.And I can assure you, he will not give it to you.”
“l’m not here for a war.My son is already dead.I’m just asking for his body.”
“And so was Alpha Fabian.And we don’t have his body.He was not even given a proper burial.So why
does your son deserve one?”
He growled, and Lucy’s hold on me tightened.
“Leave, or I will have my men force you out of this land,” I told him in a cold voice.
“This conversation is not over,” He said, gritting his teeth.
“I’m sure it is.”
“Bring me, Elliot!” He shouted.
I was confused for a second until I realized what he was about to do.
The door of one of the cars opened, and one man climbed out before he took something or someone
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfrom the car.
And I was right.
Elliot, Ethan’s four- or five-year-old son, went running to his grandfather, who immediately caught him
in his arms before he went around to face us again.
“Ask them, son, where is your father?”
His tone shifted into his usually arrogant ways the moment his grandson was in our presence.
Fucking bastard.
“Where is daddy?”
The young pup asked, with his eyes shifting between the three of us.He looked like Ethan with his hair
slicked up the way Ethan would fix his.
I felt Lucy’s emotions plummet into sadness before she put up her walls.
“Your father has gone off somewhere.I’m afraid you will not see him…”
I couldn’t continue with the word anymore.
“He said we would visit him here today.I’m tired.” He said it so smartly, and although I didn’t want to feel
guilty, I did.
With my face void of any emotions, I thought of all the females and pups that were caught in Ethan’s
war while he conquered packs and territories.I should not feel bad.I kept reminding myself.
“He’s not here.I suggest you tell your grandfather to head back where you came from.”
“Look at them, Elliot.”
The moment those words left Eliizar’s mouth I knew it was heading bad for little Elliot.
“These people killed your father.He’s not coming back to you anymore.”
Lucy’s grasp on my hands tightened, and I could feel her almost shaking, but she was trying to restrain
herself from creating any scene.
“No…Daddy was just on the phone with me.”
The pup shook his head.
Elizar ignored his words and instead turned his gaze back to us.
“I will make you pay for killing my son, if not me, I will make sure Elliot will do it for me one day.I don’t
care what power you hold, Adan Stone.You’ re still a fucking coward and weak in my eyes,”
I was about to lash out at him when Lucy spoke before I could.
“If there was any cowardly man in here, Elizar, it would be you.You’re using a child to shield yourself
while you hurled insults at us because you know we won’t touch you in his presence.”
Elizar was about to say something when Lucy beat him into it again.
“Now leave this place before I show you that I can still end your life with just a snap of my fingers and
make your grandson forget all about it in an instant.”
She said that calmly before smiling at him, and soon a mist began to arise from her body, which began
to fascinate the young boy.
“Look, grandpa! Magic!”
He gasped.
Elizar’s jaw tightened as his eyes dilated.
“Your choice, Elizar.Leave in a peaceful manner, or we can do the opposite.”
I spoke, my eyes giving him a warning.
Without any more prodding, Elizar stepped backward until he turned his body around and walked to his
car, clutching the young pup tightly in his arms.
