BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha's Little Demon by Cassandra M

LUCY.

I stood outside the car that would drive the

grand Alpha couple and Alexa’s family to the

airport. Beside me were the Beta Couple and

Lena. Gamma Kingston would be driving

them and had taken some warriors on a

convoy car.

But Adan was not here.

Momma wrapped her arms around me and kissed my cheeks before she reminded me to give her a call from time to time, especially since Adan usually forgets to check on them. I nodded my head as I returned her hugs.

I had already said my goodbyes to Alexa and her family, and only Pops was left.

I swallowed hard as I looked at him, not sure if he still wanted me to call him Pops after the event in the library.

I turned my body to face him before I smiled at him. “Have a safe trip, sir.”

He opened his arms and hugged me, which made tears pool in my eyes. “Pops… I told

you to call me Pops.”

“Yes, Pops.” I chuckled softly as my arms snaked around his body, and I hugged him back. “I’m sorry, Adan is not here. He was busy attending to something.”

I was lying. I had no idea where he was, and when I asked Beta Collin, he said he didn’t

want to be disturbed.

“He already met us and said our goodbyes. Don’t worry about it. But remember what I told you. Keeping something from Adan won’t help you.” He whispered in my ear, and it made me close my eyes. “He deserves to know more about the female he is falling in love with.”

My heart began thudding loudly at his words. Does Adan love me?

He withdrew from hugging me and placed a soft peck on my forehead. “Send us the news if a pup is coming, and we’ll fly back home immediately.”

“Yes, please…” Momma added as Pop’s arm

went around her.

“I don’t have a wolf yet,” I told them in a soft voice.

“I spoke to Elder Mercy, and she will visit you soon. In the olden days, they did rituals. and made herbal mixes to help the wolves within mature faster. So hopefully, she can help you.”

I nodded my head and smiled at the couple in front of me. “Thank you. I promise you’ll be the first to know if that happens.”

“No pressure, sweetheart. Take your time. Get to know each other well… and the pups. will come at the right time.” Momma added before she hugged me again.

I watched as the car drove off, and the

moment they were gone from my sight, I turned my body around to face Beta Collin.

“Where is the Alpha?”

“He doesn’t want to be found at the

moment. I’m sorry, Lucy.” Beta Collin answered.

“What’s going on?” I asked, my brows furrowing.
