BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon
039-Lucky Lucy
GRAND ALPHA AURELIUS.
Of all my grandpups, only Adan grew up under my watchful eyes. The rest were brought up in the
South, and I would just occasionally see them.
But Adan, I have held him since the very first day and have seen him through his first step, his first
tooth, and the first time he shifted into his wolf at fourteen.
I loved all my grandpups, but Adan would always be special. He was like me.
I knew him inside out, and I knew the struggle within him. Despite the tough facade he showed
everyone, inside him was an insecure boy who thought he was not worthy to be an Alpha. He would
always say that Suzanne’s bloodline, my eldest daughter, should have been the rightful
Alpha. But despite that, he worked hard to prove it every day so as not to disappoint me and his
people.
He was a perfect Alpha. But he was missing one thing.
A Luna.
Two weeks ago, we talked over the phone, and I told him not to feel pressured about getting a Luna or
an heir. Because if it came to the point that he would not be able to produce an heir, we would have
Alonso, Alexa’s son. Or if not, Sebastian’s or Anya’s son. He had nephews who could take over.
It didn’t matter to me who would be Pack Alpha as long as they came from my bloodline, and as long
as they were conceived out of love. It was the sole reason I refused to hand down the title to Suzanne
and opted for Audrius instead to take over the pack after me.
So when the news that Adan had finally taken home a female reached me, I knew something was off.
Adan, for the life of me, had never brought home a female, and two weeks ago, he still did not have
one.
It might be his way of proving to me again that he could produce an heir or find a Luna, but I would not
be played for a fool. If Adan would have a Luna and an heir, it must be out of love, not out of a contract.
So here I was, playing the bad guy again, just to make sure my grandpups would never fall into the trap
of a loveless union.
“What the fuck was that, grandpa?” Adan yelled at me the moment Lucy was out of earshot.
He had never raised his voice at me in the ten years that he was pack Alpha and he had done it
multiple times today.
“Adan! Can you calm down and stop disrespecting your grandfather?” It was Helena.
Adan ignored her and kept glaring at me. He was furious. His eyes were dilating, and I could feel he
was letting his aura out, but I was trying not to flinch or budge from my seat. I wanted to see how far he
was willing to stand up for Lucy.
I didn’t hate the girl. She looked lovely and smart. Just born at the wrong place and wrong time. Just
like my dear Alexa.
But she had to be the victim of my game.
“Do you even like that female?” I asked in a voice void of any emotion.
“Why the fuck do you think I would introduce her to you? She wanted to meet my family, and I fucking
gave in to make her happy, but if I knew you would step down to that level, I should have declined this
dinner. We can survive without having her meet you!
“Enough, Adan. That’s below the belt.”
Audrus snapped at him.
“So the way he treated her is okay with you? was furious. His eyes were dilating, and I could feel he
was letting his aura out, but I was trying not to flinch or budge from my seat. I wanted to see how far he
was willing to stand up for Lucy. I didn’t hate the girl. She looked lovely and smart. Just born at the
wrong place and wrong time. Just like my dear Alexa. But she had to be the victim of my game.
“Do you even like that female?” I asked in a voice void of any emotion.
“Why the fuck do you think I would introduce her to you? She wanted to meet. my family, and I fucking
gave in to make her happy, but if I knew you would step down to that level, I should have declined this
dinner. We can survive without having her meet you!
“Enough, Adan. That’s below the belt.”
Audrus snapped at him.
“So the way he treated her is okay with you?
Did he treat Mom like that? Because I sure as hell won’t allow him to disrespect my female! Not on my
fucking watch!” He was snapping at his father as well.
Adan would easily lose his temper, but he had never disrespected me or Audrius.
“If you don’t like her, fine, we’re leaving. And we’ll just see to it that she doesn’t cross paths with you.”
“Adan, can you fucking calm down.”
“No, Dad! I’m not just going to sit here and look while she’s disrespected when she has done nothing,
nothing to disrespect any of you! She’s not a bitch, and I demand you respect her the way she was
respecting all of you here!”
“I would have to side with Adan this time.” It was my Luna. She was always my voice of reason. “I didn’t
like the way you were addressing Lucy, honey. Besides, she was not even born yet when all the things
about Suzanne happened. It was unfair that you…”
“Fine,” I cut her off before she could state all the reasons I was at fault here. I let out a sigh and pushed
my chair back to stand up. ” I will go talk to her.”
In seconds, Adan was already blocking my way. Veins were popping out of his neck, but he was trying
to talk calmly this time. “No way, pops. You’re not approaching her.”
“I will not say or do anything harmful to her.
“I don’t trust you.” He hissed, his eyes threatening me.
I should be offended. But I wasn’t. Because I knew I would never trust anyone when it came to my
Luna and he was showing the same protective instinct toward her.
I shrugged my shoulders and walked past him, preparing myself in case he would attack me. “I can’t
blame you. Give me ten minutes, and you can follow after. And if I do something that is not to your
liking, I will denounce the pack and move out. An Alpha’s oath.”
I didn’t wait for him to reply as I made my way in the direction where I thought I could find the female. It
might be too early to tell, but maybe I was wrong. Maybe Adan really liked her, or maybe he even loved
her, or I would never see the rage in his eyes.
Now I just needed to find out if she felt the same way about him.
I let my nose guide me until I found her on one of the balconies overlooking the rest of Audrius’ estate.
She was outside on a chilly night without a coat or a jacket, but she looked like she wasn’t bothered by
it, or probably her pain was shielding her from the cold.
I walked to a built-in closet nearby and grabbed one of Crystal’s coats before I went back to where she
was, slipping out of the sliding door without making any noise before I placed the coat around her
shoulders.
She thanked me without looking at me, and we stayed silent for a couple of minutes until she started
talking. And finally, I had the chance to ask her if she loved my grandson.
“And I want you to like me too because I know how much you mean to him. I’m not. sure if that’s how
love feels, but I really like him, so please don’t ask me to stay away from him,” she said in a soft voice,
Her gaze was on me, but I wasn’t returning it. I kept my eyes straight ahead.
“We never had a chosen Luna. The Alphas of this pack had always had their fated mates as their
Lunas.”
“I know what you’re trying to tell me. And I can’t argue with that. If the day comes that Adan will finally
meet his mate, I will walk away. I will never argue with fate.” I tilted my head to look at her this time, just
in time for me to see tears trickling down her cheeks.
She smiled as she wiped the tears off her face. “I’m sorry. I was getting too emotional.
“Are you not hoping he’s your fated mate?”
“I do. Every day since I met him. But I’m just me.” Her shoulders started to shake as soft sobs escaped
her throat. “Why would I be given a great Alpha for a mate? This is all just wishful thinking, but a girl
can dream.”
I just looked at her, and I could see the pain in her words.
“But I should be happy I met him. Not everyone got the chance to be with him. I’m
Lucky Lucy.” She tried to chuckle as she kept wiping her tears. “I’m sorry. I am overly dramatic
sometimes.”
I let a smile tug on my mouth this time, and I saw the way her eyes beamed when she saw me smile.
“Me too, I overreact sometimes.”
I would have said more, but the sliding door opened, and Adan’s strong aura swirled around us.
Was it ten minutes already?
“Lucy…” His voice came out soft, totally opposite of the way he was speaking with me earlier.
“Adan…”
“Are you okay? Let’s go home.” His hand extended toward her.
Lucy’s eyes went to me, and I shifted my gaze to my grandson. “She hasn’t eaten dinner yet. Go back
to the table, and I’ll be on my best behavior.”
I didn’t wait for their reply and just walked back inside and made my way to the dining room.
I guess I got the answer to what I was looking for. I just hope the Goddess will intervene and give her to
my grandson as his fated mate. Because I had no idea what would happen if they were fated with
someone else. This pack has never had a chosen Luna.
