BRAVING THE DARKNESS: One Night With The Demon King

BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Book 2

Chapter 21 – Nyneve

LUCIUS.

I couldn’t wipe out the smile on my face the whole time I was driving her car into her allotted parking space. This morning was just perfect, and with

Patrea not hesitating to show her excitement over my presence in her life, that was the cherry on top.

And as much as I wanted to check her out in the library immediately after I dropped her off, I needed time to check on my kingdom as well.

But I’ll be back.

After checking that there were no humans around and no living souls within my perimeter, I locked Patrea’s car and transported my body back to Kalmerus.

I knew I’d been slacking off for many cycles now, but nothing threatened Kalmerus at the moment, so I didn’t see any problem with staying away from time to time.

[King Lucius,] My right-hand demon, Dorion, greeted me after he appeared on the throne hall a few moments after I did.

[Anything I should be concerned about?] I asked as I made my way to my throne chair.

[We have a request from the King of the Kingdom of Athwart. I told them you will send out a response after they think about it.]

[What do they want?] I asked, my forehead creasing.

The last time I was in the company of Arturos was when he let me have a taste of his mistress, the nearest one he could have for a wife or a queen, as none of the Kings of the Underworld had allowed a woman to rule with them.

[He didn’t specifically mention it, but his right hand had informed me that he wanted one of his offspring to meet you. I believed he has three daughters, and the youngest is just a half-century old.]

[I’m not interested.] I answered in a bored manner. I already had my eyes fixed on someone else.

Dorian was about to reply when the double door of the throne hall opened and one of my demon guards came in with another piece of news.

[King Lucius, the King of Athwart, is waiting by the portal connecting our kingdoms. He was seeking entrance to speak with you.]

I let out a hiss, annoyed at the intrusion. I shouldn’ t have come back. He might have felt my presence. Demons were allowed to travel back and forth throughout the underworld, but the towers were specifically enchanted to allow only the demons of each kingdom, thus he needed permission for entry into my tower.

[Was he alone?] I asked.

[Princess Nyneve is with him.] The demon guard replied.

[I would like to assume that she is his daughter.] Dorian added.

[Bring them here.] I ordered them.

Dorian’s eyes blazed red before he disappeared together with the demon guard, and it didn’t take long before the door to my throne hall opened again, and King Arturos came in, together with a she -demon that I wouldn’t deny sparked interest in me.
