BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 151 – The Demon Prince of Chaos
BLOOD MOON PACK – Alpha Aeon and Luna Alexa’s Territory.
FIVE YEARS FROM THE LAST CHAPTER.
ADAN STONE…
Amara Grace, my only niece, was celebrating her 18th birthday, and I took my whole family with me and went to the South, which we had done at least once or twice a year in the last ten years.
Aside from visiting my family that had relocated to the South, it was also a way for Lucy to visit the graves of her parents. Aeon and Alexa were generous enough to give Everly a proper burial when she d*ied, and they could not locate Lucy.
On the first occasion that Lucy visited her mother’s grave, Alexa also gave her a big surprise. She took d*iego’s belongings that she saved from Lucy’s old house and told Lucy that the empty space that was opened beside Everly’s would be given officially to d*iego. And since we no longer had his body, Alexa thought burying some of his things would still count. So that Lucy would have a place to visit both her parents.
I never saw Lucy cry so hard except that day, and I could feel every emotion within her — her sadness and her happiness were overwhelming her, but I was glad she was sharing all of those emotions with me.
It was the closure that Lucy needed as she said her goodbyes to Everly and d*iego and told them what happened to her life after they were gone.
Lucy told them of her struggles and her triumphs.
Of how she met me.
Of how she tamed my Beast.
Of how her wolf, Angel, was special.
And of how she took revenge for everything Lucien did to them.
She then asked d*iego’s forgiveness for all the pain Lucien caused him and thanked him for loving her as if she were his own pup.
She told him that she asked forgiveness from Pops and Momma for his part in Suzanne’s misery. She told him Pops had forgiven him, and that Pops loved her as if she were his own grandpup.
Lucy was a big mess that day. She let out the child in her that was crying for the loss of her parents, but instead of a weak female crying her heart out, I saw a strong one that I would always be proud of.
After everything she’d been through, she didn’t lose her spark of life.
Despite her belief that she was made of darkness, I saw otherwise. I saw Lucy as my light — the angel that I needed to save me.
She thought meeting me, her fated mate, would mean I could save her. She was wrong. It was I who needed saving, and she came into my life just in time. And I would always take pride in calling her mine.
“Hmmm…” Lucy M0@ned against my lips as we kissed passionately in the fire exit of the building, where Amara’s party was in full swing.

It was just eight in the evening. Lucy and I just came back from upstairs after we put our little girl to bed because she fell asleep in my arms.
Luciana Aila, or Lily. Our five-year-old daughter.
The one we conceived in the underworld. The Underworld Princess of Mischief.
My hand landed on Lucy’s ass and I squeezed it hard before I felt a presence behind me, as Lucy did. We immediately untangled ourselves from each other and turned our bod*ies around, where we saw Amara standing a few feet away, looking at us.
“What the f*ck happened to you?” I almost growled while Lucy’s hand was holding my forearm, stopping me from walking toward Amara.
Amara’s eyes were puffy, and her lips were swollen.
She shook her head without taking her eyes off me. “I’m okay. I just want to go upstairs, and you’re blocking the way, Dada.” She answered in a soft voice.
“I can f0rce the lies out of you,” I warned her, my eyes dilating into darkness, but I tried to restrain myself from growling.
“But you won’t do it.” Her eyes shifted to Lucy as they turned glassy. “Mama, please help me. I just need ten minutes so Dad won’t see me like this.” Lucy flicked her fingers, and Amara’s face returned to how it had been earlier. No more puffy eyes and swollen lips. “I took care of your looks. Now, go up the stairs to your room, pull yourself together, and come back down so we can talk.”
Lucy pulled me away from Amara’s path, and my niece immediately slid past us.
“Thank you, Mama. Please don’t tell, Mom…” She said this as she dashed up the fire exit stairs, not waiting for a response.
“I’m not sure it is wise to hide it from Aeon and Alexa,” I told Lucy as I let out a big sigh.
“She’s eighteen, Adan. And Amara is one of the smartest females I’ve met. She can handle herself well, and I’m sure she will tell Alexa as she never kept anything from her.”
“I don’t know. I don’t like what I saw in her eyes.” “Adan! We have to trust Amara.”
“Fine. But can you ask her later what happened?” “I will. And if she tells me, we will see if Alexa needs to get involved. Otherwise, we will let her decide for herself. Okay?”
“Fine.”
She smiled at me before a loud commotion inside the ballroom reached my ears, and it didn’t escape Lucy’s either.
We hurried inside, and we saw one of Aeon’s Alpha friends, if I am not mistaken, it was Riley. He looked agitated as he stormed out of the ballroom, followed by his mate. O “What’s going on?” I asked Edward, Aeon’s Gamma after he was done sending out warriors to look outside.
“Alpha Riley can’t find his daughter. He said he last saw her just ten feet away from him, and now she’s nowhere.” “How old is she?” I asked, my eyes also roaming around the ballroom looking for my son, Aiden.
“Six or seven,” he answered respectfully before he stepped backward. “I need to go, Alpha Adan, so I can check around as well.”
I nodded my head at him before I saw Lucy’s eyes blaze red.
“Is it Aiden?” I asked her.
She nodded her head as she took my hand. Our gaze went around the area, and when we saw no one was looking, Lucy teleported our bod*ies to where she felt Aiden’s aura was.
We were in the forest, but not too deep, at the back of the pavilion where Amara’s party was held. The people looking for her were probably at the front, but I was sure they would find us here soon.
But I was right, Aiden was letting out a fire that made it easier for Lucy to connect with him.
“Aiden Luther!” When Lucy called his attention, he turned around, as did the little girl beside him, who I assumed was Riley’s daughter. “What are you two doing here?”
“I’m lighting a fire so she can see me in the dark,”
Aiden answered confidently, and it made me shake my head, knowing what was about to happen.
“Why did you take her here? Her parents are looking for her.”
“He told me he’s a unicorn and that he can fly.” The little girl answered. “I want to see it.”
“And how did you get here?” Lucy asked her in a soft tone as she bent down and tucked the stray strands of hair behind her ears while I mindlinked Dad and told him to tell Aeon we found Riley’s daughter with Aiden.
“I closed my eyes, and he carried me, and he ran fast. When I opened my eyes, we were here! He runs too fast, not like Zach! Zach is slow!” She said it enthusiastically.
“Do you know your mom and dad are looking for you?” Lucy asked her.
She didn’t answer. She bit her bottom lip, and I saw worry flitting in her eyes.
“Aiden, you cannot simply take young girls to play with them in the middle of the night or even during the daytime without asking permission from their parents,” I told Aiden directly.
“But Dad, I will just fly with her for a while and return her. I thought they wouldn’t notice.” He reasoned as he extinguished the fire on the bonfire he built.
“Of course, they will. She’s only six.”
“I’ll be seven soon, sir.” The little girl answered politely.
