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

044 – You Caught My Eye

ADAN STONE.

We went down the hill with Lucy on Beast and went back to the packhouse right away.

My Gamma and Beta were waiting for us at the top of the steps, but I had already informed them that Lucy was safe. But I knew I had to tell them more. If Lucy was in danger, having my trusted men know about it was fair play.

What could I do if I was up against a demon prince? Or worse, the whole underworld?

Lucy taught me an important lesson: never accept an invitation or volunteer to visit the underworld because once there, I could not leave anymore unless they allowed me to.

I was excited when I saw her in her demon form, but what she told me sent shivers down my spine.

propped up on the mattress and her chin resting on her knuckles while she looked at

Beast growled in my head. He was mad, but

not with me. It had been too long since the last time Beast had aired out his agreement for my action, but he did now we’re not

letting our Omega go. 1

“What are you thinking?” she asked, lips. curling into a pout as she tried to read my

expression.

I smiled before turning around and throwing the towel on the hamper inside the bathroom. I walked to my closet and grabbed a new pair of sweatpants before putting them on. I had things to do before the night

was over.

“So… Will you be ignoring me the whole night? Are you regretting letting me stay?”
