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

Chapter 58 – Under A Thousand Stars (PATREA)

Five nights ago, I told Lucius I was ready to take our relationship to the next level. I was ready to have a baby with him.

A demon pregnancy could be detected a few hours after mating. But five days later, there was still nothing.

I stared blankly at the mirror inside the bathroom that Lucius had custom-made for me.

I felt empty. I felt useless.

I knew Guinevere wasn’t lying when she reversed the spell I did on my body, and I was sure Lucius could get any female pregnant if he didn’t stop himself from producing one.

So, it must be me. Maybe my actual human age has something to do with this. I was not getting older in physical form, but perhaps I was past the stage of childbearing.

And it hurts. It hurt more now than it did the first time when I thought I could not give him an heir because, this time, I expected it to be possible.

Lucius seemed to not mind, but he might just be good at hiding it. Because it was the same thing I was showing him, but deep inside, I was slowly dying.

What do I have to give up to give my king the heir he wants from me?

‘Where are you?’ Lucius’ voice rang in my head, startling me from my own thoughts.

I immediately snapped my fingers, and my face cleared up. The swollen eyes and puffy nose were gone.

‘In the bathroom. Where are you?’ I replied and asked.

‘Here in the bedroom now.’

I didn’t reply and stepped out of the bathroom instead. My lips curled into a wide smile when my eyes fell on his handsome, smiling face as if seeing me was the highlight of his day.

I launched on my feet and ran toward him, and in seconds, I was already wrapped up in his arms as he spun me around. “Aren’t you too excited to see me?”

“I am always excited to see you,” I answered, cupping his cheeks as I peppered his face with kisses.

Lucius spent the day with Dorion and Simon, visiting both the kingdoms of Kalmerus and Athwart.

“Good. Because I am as well. How about I take you somewhere to make up for leaving you alone the whole cycle?”

“Hmmm… Where?” I asked, my eyes squinting.

“You will find out soon, but let’s get you dressed up.” He said it with a smug smirk tugging his mouth before he let me down on m y feet and pointed at the bed.

Three evening gowns were in there, but my eyes focused on the red one. I wore black and blue the last time we attended an event, so I opted for red this time. “Hmmm… Are we attending some event?”
