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

Chapter 81

081 – In Seven Cycles

LUCIUS.

It had been three cycles [days], and my

father had never left Kalmerus. All the

time he was putting on that fucking hologram to check on Stone, and it was

now annoying me.

He also knew Lucija was mastering skills,

and he would watch her from time to

time. If I thought he would be bothered by Lucija acquiring advanced skills, I was

wrong. He looked like he was enjoying it.

His action confused the hell out of me.

But then I realized he probably wanted

Lucija on his side. So he was pampering

her, giving in to all her whims except for

anything related to Stone. I wondered

how long it would be before he would

realize that Lucija never wanted to stay.

Earlier, I went to see her while on training, and I found our father watching her with awe in his eyes. Lucija was able to seamlessly change her shape into that

of other demons. We called this

shapeshifting, and only royal and high- ranking demons had this ability. It took me a while to get this, but it only took a day for her, which was impressive. But then, she’s Lucija.

The only thing was that this illusion could only fool ordinary demons or creatures, not us. I could still see part of her. Demons of the same blood could see the illusions perfectly created by a family. So I had no idea why she was focusing on this when she could never use this ability against our father.

Aside from that, she could now

manipulate minds and have someone else do her bidding without even having to

open her mouth.

I saw her one day playing with demons while she was sharing a good laugh with Father. If I didn’t know she was just

acting, I would like to believe Lucija was

more of a demon now than a werewolf.

“Father,” I called out, drawing his

attention away from the hologram he was

watching.

He raised his hand, motioning for me to stop talking, before returning his

attention to the hologram. My eyes

darted to it and saw him watching Stone

as he walked out of the packhouse and slipped into a large car with two other people with him.

Only then did he return his attention to

me, and I pretended I was not interested

in what I saw.

“What do you need?” he asked.

“Are you not going to do anything except watch that fucking thing? Why are you so obsessed with Stone? Where is he going?”
