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

Chapter 25

025 Three L’s

BETA COLLIN.

Laira and I, together with the Gamma couple, Kingston and Lena, were sitting on the steps of the packhouse, waiting for our Alpha to come home. We had no idea what had happened between them, and Laira was worried that the Alpha might

have blown up his anger with Lucy.

I had to remind Laira that no matter how

pissed off or irritated Alpha Adan was, he would never lay a hand on a female. But my smart mate reminded me that she was not concerned about the physical

abuse but more about the words that

would come out of Alpha Adan’s mouth.

And I think she was right. Through the years, Adan had changed tremendously. Gone was the calm and peace-loving man

I grew up with.

He grew more distant and more broody over the years. I guessed it came from the

fact that he had no one to channel his

energy through. I didn’t believe a man or his wolf could go feral without a mate, but I think Adan was a living example of

that.

A part of me was hopeful that the Omega was his mate. I knew many would raise

an eyebrow if an Alpha was mated to an Omega, but at this point, I just wanted

Adan to find his mate. And with his wolf

being tamed down by this Omega, I would

like to believe he could sense her as his

mate now only if we could let her wolf

out sooner so we could find out.

But if they were not fated mates, with a wolf, she could at least give him an heir.

And maybe they could make it work

because it looked like she was the only

female the Alpha could tolerate. Maybe

not all the time, but it was just a day and I

never saw Adan as disoriented as he was

the whole day. This Omega surely stirred. something in him.
