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

088 – Succubus

LUCY.

My mind and body were already tired, but I kept going.

Lucius brought me to a place I had never been before. It looked like a cave, but it wasn’t – it was just endless darkness, and the only source of light was the torches he placed in every corner surrounding us.

I’d been trying to shift into my succubus form, and it kept getting harder because Angel was fighting it. Every time I shifted into one, she was out of my head, and she wasn’t liking that. And with our location away from the tower, she was able to use her own strength against mine.

My wolf wanted to trust Lucius, but she didn’t want me to make the wrong

decision. She didn’t want me away from

her.

But I wanted to take the risk. I wanted to

see Adan, even in his dreams, or what they called ‘nightmares.’

“But without my wolf with me and just a demon soul, would I still go into heat?” I asked Lucius after finding out I would not be able to take Angel with me in my succubus form.

“You shouldn’t even be thinking about

that. Just in your succubus form, you will be in total lust.”

“Well, I am not right now.”

“You never fancy me, Lucija, It would never work. Wait until you see Stone, and you might end up overdoing it.”

I rolled my eyes at him and prepared to shift again. Every time I did it, my body

remained unconscious, as if I were sleeping, so I had to make sure I would be

in bed pretending to be asleep when I transformed to meet Adan, or someone would notice I was out of my body.

Angel snarled at me, but I pushed her back into the back of my mind, and this time it went smoothly. Soon, my soul was floating around the area. I was totally

naked, but Lucius could still see me. I was watching his eyes the whole time to see if I would see anything in them wants, or anything else. But there was nothing.

Maybe he didn’t see me as anything other than his sister, which was something I appreciated.

“I think you’re getting better with it. Try it on your bed later, when you’re alone.”

“But how do I get to him?”

“No other way but to use a portal. Only

Father can leave without using one.”

“Are you sure he can’t track me?”

“Not in that form. And then, once you’re out of the underworld, you can just teleport your soul wherever you want to be.”

“I can go to his pack? How would I know Lucien is not watching him at that time?”

“Stone is currently not in his territory. He said he was in Blade’s territory.”

My eyes widened at his words. “Blade? Wait how did you know all this? Are you communicating with Adan?”

“No. I just have to make sure he’s safe. So I’m watching him. Without him, I can’t kick you out of here.”

“Would that mean you’re protecting him

asked, my eyebrows hiking up.

“Yes, ma’am.” He winked at me, and I willed my soul to go back to my physical form.

In an instant, my body woke up, and Angel ignored me as she retreated to the back of my mind even after I greeted her. But I would deal with her later.

“So, how would I reach him when I don’t even know where he is?” I asked, and this time I couldn’t help the smile from gracing my lips at the excitement brewing in my chest.

“Leave it to me. I will meet you at the other end of the portal, and we can

transport together to where he is.”
