BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 125

125 – Sol – Blade – Althea ADAN STONE.

After the event outside the packhouse, Lucy and I excused ourselves so we could freshen up before breakfast, as we promised my family that we would explain more while eating.

But since it was still early, we were planning to play hooky for a while in our room, but the plan ended abruptly even before it started, even before we could reach our room.

Blade cornered me in the hallway leading to the stairs and requested to speak with me alone.

From the expression on his face, I knew he would not accept a no, so I told my little bunny to go ahead and wait for me in our room instead, and I went with Blade into my office.

T heard him lock the door as I made my way to my chair, and as soon as I sat down, he threw a thick envelope on my desk.

“What’s that?” I asked as I leaned forward and grabbed it.I opened it to find stacks of cash inside.I didn’t ask again, but I raised it and waited for his reply.

“For Althea.” He answered in a cold voice.

“I’m not sure I understand,”I told him.

“I’m giving you back the money you paid me when I picked her up in the red mountains.”

“Okay, but the fuck, man, I only give you a portion of this.This is ten times what I paid you.”

“Use it for her.It’s my life’s savings since I started doing mercenary work.”

I knew that when Blade left his territory, he didn’t take anything with him except his car and one duffel bag.

His cards and cash were left behind, so everything in my hand right now was the money he earned in the last five years, doing what he was doing.

“I don’t understand.If you want to give her money, why does it have to come through me? Can’t you just give it to her?”

“I’m leaving.”

“You’re what? We didn’t even have time to catch up.”

“We don’t need to.I know you’re happy, that’s enough for me.”

“And you? Are you happy? You know that I would never stop you from leaving, but I want to know what’s going on.This is about Althea, right? Don’t tell me you didn’t talk things out until now.”
