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

091 – Are You Not Scared?

LUCY.

“Are you ready?”

I nodded my head as I tucked myself into my

blanket. Lucius stood next to my bed, staring at my lying form.

“Again, whatever you are doing, even if you’re in the middle of your orgasm, if Father connected with you, transport your succubus back to the portal and back here.”

“You told me that several times.”

“I just had to. I don’t want you to get lost in your own pleasure and destroy everything.”

“Does my succubus form ignite a fire?”

“Yes. And I’m not sure if that can be tracked, so you’d better not use it. You can control fire, right?”

“I can.”

“Then let’s go.”

I didn’t reply anymore and closed my eyes, sending a message to my wolf that I would be gone but I would be back soon. And in just a blink of an eye, I felt my succubus form rise from my body, and soon I was watching myself sleep.

Yes, I looked like I was just sleeping.

Father had never entered my chambers except for that one time he took Adan from my room, so I was hoping he would not come here. It would be easier for me to go back to my body if he summoned me and if he was nowhere around my physical body.

Lucius nodded his head and disappeared from my room, and I followed him to the portal we would use to cross to the other realm.

Everything happened in a split second, and the next thing I knew, I saw Kingston

The day went by swiftly. I was expecting Althea to come, but she didn’t arrive. I was glad we didn’t inform Patrea, or she would be worried by now. I was assuming

something came up that delayed the young witch from arriving here, but I was hoping it was nothing serious.

I was also informed that Blade was not with her, and I had no idea where he was.

Once I returned to my territory, I had to order someone to look for him. We didn’t see each other very often, but Blade would occasionally contact me and ask if I had any

adventures for him. But he was quiet this
