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

030 – Nathaniel & Carlston

ADAN STONE.

The last six days went draggingly slow, and although I was able to keep myself busy and focused during the day, the nights left me restless and unable to

sleep. I missed my stubborn Omega.

I wish I hadn’t left without saying goodbye. I knew she was awake while I was trying to touch her, and because she was ignoring me, I thought I would teach her a lesson. In the end, I was the one

with a lesson learned – I liked her, and it looked like I would be the one giving in to

her whims.

But I didn’t fucking care at the moment. I wanted to see her.

So when we finally rounded up the whole area and made sure there were no more illegal settlers and that all the ruined

buildings where they were camping were totally demolished, we finally prepared ourselves to travel home.

And the men with me mirrored the excitement I felt. But unlike them, I tried to mask my real emotions. That was the reason I remained seated in my car even after I put it to a complete halt. I wanted to look at her, and at the same time, I had to control myself first or I would end up looking like a lovesick dog in front of my

warriors.

Lucy was standing by the front steps, a few meters away from my car. And even though she was wearing that ugly black hoodie, she was still the most beautiful female tonight, and the packhouse ground was swarming with females.

I couldn’t wait to have her alone to

myself. Six fucking nights that I had to pleasure myself with just the memory of her. I told myself that even if I didn’t end

up fucking her tonight, I would still be pleased just to have her beside me.

But the moment I saw the desire swirling in her eyes, I knew I would not last the night without fucking her. And that’s what I intended to do.

I kicked the bedroom door closed the

moment I stepped in before I let her

down on her feet. She turned around and beamed at me, watching as I pulled my shirt off my body. She was about to help me unbutton my jeans, but I stopped her hands and shook my head.

Her face dropped as she stepped back and

I made my way to the bathroom. I hadn’t showered since I went away, and the last

thing I wanted was to fuck her with all

the dirt and animal blood that was

clinging to my body.

And I refused to speak with her because the moment I opened my mouth and she began to converse with me, I might snap

out of my control and fuck her right away.

So I left her and went to the bathroom.

“Alpha,” she followed after me. “I didn’t prepare a bath for you. Do you want…”

“I’m okay. I can take care of myself, just

wait for me in the bedroom.” I cut her

words even before she could finish.
