BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon
087 – A Brother’s Promise
LUCY.
“Everyone out!” I kept flicking my
fingers and hurrying Gargon and the two demons to move and go away from the fire tower
“But we’re not done for today.” Gargon’s forehead creased as he looked at me.
“I didn’t ask for your opinion.”
“If you want to learn more, you can’t just cancel anytime…”
“Question my decisions one more time,
and you will lose
ur ability to speak.
Now get off here and bring your minions with you. Out!”
I hissed before I set every goal around us on fire. It didn’t escape my ears the way
Gargon hissed, but he didn’t say more and instead motioned for the demons to follow him as he made
his way out.
‘You can come up now. You better transport your body here, or you will meet Gargon by the stairs.
They just headed out.’
I was not even finished with my words to Lucius when he appeared inside the
tower, and he immediately locked the door, pushing the big block of wood barricading the entrance.
I snickered before shaking my head. “As
if the lock would stop them from
transporting their bodies here.”
“Whatever. We need to talk.” He scoffed
at me.
“Well, who told you you get to decide
when we should talk?”
“I can see you’re growing horns. Good for you, but don’t let it go higher than your
wings or you might end up being the asshole here.”
“Isn’t that what demons are made of?”
“Most, but I’m not one.”
I laughed loudly at his words before I replied to him, watching as he lit his cigarettes. “It was an asshole
move to ignore me after you told me that you would help me out of here.”
“Believe it or not, I’m still helping you. I just don’t think it’s a smart move to tell you all my plans, but I
guess it’s time to let you in on some part of it.”
“But who said I wanted help now?”
I saw his forehead crease as his eyes blazed red. “What the fuck? Did you just change your mind? Do
you want to stay
here for good?”
“Are you scared I will take the throne away from you?” I asked back, crossing my arms against my
chest.
“Lucija…” He sounded disappointed, but I couldn’t sense any anger building in his aura, or he was just
good at hiding it.
“I have nowhere to go except here.” That was the truth. I was starting to realize that stealing Adan’s
memory had backfired on me and that I might have lost him forever.
“What do you mean? How about Stone?”
“I think he found another female to
replace me.” I tried to tell him that with a straight face, but I was not sure if I was succeeding because
my chest was heaving with pain.
“What the fuck? He has not. He was busy
managing his pack.”
“How did you know? I saw him with a female.”
“I presumed it was Father who showed you things? Are you a demon or what?
You should know that our father will do anything to get what he wants, including showing you things
that are not real. So don’t let it get into your head.”
“Are you not the same as him? Telling me things I wanted to hear so I could get off your back and leave
you alone with the throne?”
“Yes, I can do all that, and I can’t force you to believe me, but if you just let me do what I was planning
to do, I can get you out of here in a few cycles [days].”
“I don’t know who to trust.
“Trust your hea
And your mate.”
“What if he doesn’t want me anymore?”
“Oh, Lucija, just fucking trust me. I am here to teach you how to be a succubus so you can see him.”
“A succubus?” My eyes widened at his words. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think of using this
side of me.
A succubus is one of our forms that allows us to have sexual relations with sleeping humans while they
believe they are awake.
“What if I hurt him?”
“You can’t. Your succubus form would never hurt anyone, but of course, if they
didn’t want to and struggled in their
sleep, that’s another case. But I don’t
think he will fight you off.”
“But Father ended up hurting my mother every time.”
“That was a different thing. Your mother thought Father was in his incubus form, but the truth was, he
would bring her here every time and return her when he power has no
was done with her. Father’
boundaries. He lived far too long to know
those tricks and he abused it.”
“But will he remember me
hent
wakes up?”
“If you
ant him to. Make him remember
you.”
“Have you
done it
“Yes. But I don’t take pleasure in it. I want my females warm and responsive.”
I bit my bottom, unsure what to think at the moment. “I don’t know if I can even do that… I’m not
allowed to leave this realm.”
“That’s why succubus form is your only
way out because your body will remain
here.”
“How will I do that?”
“That’s what I’m going to teach you. The full moon in the human realm is
tomorrow night. You will go into heat, so you only have limited time to learn.
“Where did you get all this information? How did you know about the shifter’s
heat?”
“I wasn’t born yesterday, Lucija. Do you think I spent centuries just fucking females and not learning
things about other species?” He told me, but it felt like he was hiding something.
“So once I learn how to be a succubus, I can just go anywhere I want and meet Adan in his dream?”
“You can say it like that. But you have to
be aware that the succubus form is a
sexual demon form. So your lust will be
tenfold. Any man you desire will fire up your lust.”
“I don’t see anything wrong with that. I
eat for fo
think it’s like in the
shifter world. When will you start
teaching me?”
“Today. But we have to talk about
another thing. About Guillermo.”
“So Father told you about him and what
he wants us to do.”
“Yes. And your other option is me.”
Eyes widened. “No, not you. I will never fuck you.”
“Who the fuck says anything about fucking with me or even Guillermo? I will not let you fuck with him
either. That’s
why you have to choose me if Father gives
you an option.”
“He wants Guillermo.”
“But you want me. You have to tell him that because I am sure the moment you agree with Guillermo,
that fucking bastard will waste no time in fucking you.
“What’s my guarantee you won’t touch me?”
His hands went to my arms as he caught my gaze. “Look at me. Look me in the
eye and tell me if you see the lust in them?”
“You can make me see what you want me to see.”
“Damn that, Lucija. You have my demon word, I will never touch you or even think filthy thoughts about
you.”
“You’re the prince of lust, in case you forgot that.”
“I only see you as my kid, Lucija. Even if you don’t trust me fully enough, I want
you to believe me when I say you’re better
off with me than Guillermott
“If I choose Adan?”
, will y
you still
let me see
“If I become the King of Kalmerus, you can choose to leave this realm, and I will not hold you back.’
I knew I shouldn’t trust anyone here. Lucius taught me that. But I was desperate now. My eyes watered
arms flung around my brother and I
my
embraced him, slamming my face against his chest. “Please… I don’t want to be here.”
“I just want your word, Lucija, that no matter what happens, this Kingdom is mine.”
“Yes. I have my own pack in the human realm.”
“We can have it the easy way. You take the kingdom, choose me as your king, and hand it over to me.”
“Yes, we can do that.”
“No, we can’t. The only way Father will give it to you is when you become a full- fledged demon. It
means killing your wolf.
“No. No. No. That’s not going to happen!”
“Lucija, listen to me.” He said that before a large bubble formed and engulfed us.
“What’s that?” I asked and pressed a finger on it, but it didn’t pop.
“It’s just extra security to make sure no one is listening in. Listen to me. I know you are aware you’re
cleansing period is
soon. The first step is to kill your wolf.”
I shook my head as my eyes blazed red.
No one will touch Angel!
I’d been secretly summoning her
out
from time to time to let her gain back her strength whenever I went out of the
tower.
“He will make you mate with Guillermo, and Guillermo will initiate the process of killing your wolf. That
is why it’s
important that you choose me. So I would be the one to do it.
“No! You’re not killing my wolf!” I hissed at him.
“Do you trust me?”
“No.” I answered almost immediately.
“That’s a good start. But do you know
that I want this throne more than
anything?” He said and asked with face void of any emotions.
“Yes.”
“Good. Then you know I will save you so I can get this throne. Right?”
“Yes.”
“And without your wolf, you will never belong to Adan’s realm. Right?”
“Yes.”
“And if you don’t belong there, where do you think you do?”
“Here.”
“Right, as queen of Kalmerus. So now, do I want you as the ruler of Kalmerus, or do I want it for
myself?”
“Yourself.” He was talking to me as if I were a kid, but I was just letting him since I wanted answers as
well.
“Good. That means the only way I can get
it is to kick you out of here, and without your wolf, I can’t do that. So it goes back to the start, I can’t kill
her. Because I want Kalmerus for myself, with my own queen. I never see you as mine.”
“Who do you see as your queen?” I asked, a bit curious because I didn’t know anything about him at
all.
He ruffled my hair as a smile graced his lips. It’s not the usual evil smirk he would flash at me. This was
a warm smile, something I never saw on his face. “It’s none of your business, but I will tell you in time.”
I wanted to ask him more about it, but he continued talking.
“So just trust me that I will save you from here. You will know everything on time, but for now, you have
tasks to do: learn to
be a succubus, this one for your pleasure, and reject Guillermo to save your wolf.”
“What if Father doesn’t agree? He told me you’re…” I stopped myself from saying anything else. I didn’t
want to tell him what Father told me about him being too weak.
“That I’m weak? And don’t deserve to be the king of this kingdom?” He let out a sigh before he
continued. “I’m only weak because I kept myself on guard. Just because I follow him around doesn’t
mean I’m weak. Strength is not just measured by being loud and being a show -off, sometimes strength
is measured by being quiet while carefully planning how to reach your goals. I choose the latter, Lucija.
I have nothing, to begin with, so I have to be careful with my every move.”
“Me too. I have nothing.”
“You have everything. This kingdom,
Stone’s pack, Stone
you will always
have him as long as you carry his mark.”
He pointed to my neck.
My eyes widened as my hand flew to
touch the mark I had hidden. “How did you know? I never told anyone.”
“Perhaps a little crow told me you were marked.”
“Did you tell anyone?”
“No. Because, in addition to everything I mentioned, you also got me. I will always have your back,
princess. Right now, I’m the only one you have, but I promise you that I will give you back everything
Father has taken away from you.’
Tears trickled down my face as I hugged Lucius one more time. “Thank you.”
“Thank me when it’s all done.” He
chuckled as he ruffled my hair. “Now get off me, I don’t do hugs. You hugged me too many times
already.”
