    BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 59


    059 – Angel


    LUCY.


    Her name is Angel.


    The Goddess gave me an Angel to counter my demon. Even if she was not a real Angel, she was the


    closest I could be to heaven, and that was enough to keep my spirit high. The Goddess hadn’t


    forgotten about me.


    “What took you so long toe out?” I was not angry at her, but my voice sounded depressed.


    ‘I am the other side of your demon power. When you suppressed it, you suppressed me. And you let it


    out in full force tonight, and it gave me strength to reach you.’


    “I’m sorry. I didn’t know.” It was the


    ne all along, but what choice do I


    have? I didn’t want to bd


    ‘I’m not ming you, what is important is that I am here now. You can’t have me


    without the fire, Lucy. You need to learn to embrace fire if you want to keep me.”


    “I understand. But will you just be a part of me, or do I also have a physical wolf? Because there is


    someone I want you to meet.


    ‘Beast…’ She whimpered, and I giggled. ‘I’m ready toe out whenever you are.’


    “Now?” My eyes widened as I scrambled to my feet, brushing the earth from my pants.


    ‘Yes! We need to hurry! Your Alpha needs us!


    “Oh, Goddess! I forgot!” My heart thudded loudly. I got so distracted that I forgot about Adan. But if


    there was anything, I didn’t feel anything strange yet. “Will it hurt when I


    transform?”


    ‘Nothing can hurt you, Lucy. A little pain but nothingpared to regr shifters.’


    “Howe you know so much if you’re just a baby wolf?” I tossed my shirt to the ground


    before I unbuttoned my pants and pulled them down, leaving me in just my thong.


    ‘I’m not a baby wolf. You were given a wolf the moment you set out your first fire. I’ve been watching


    you since you were six and


    grew up with you.’


    “Oh, Goddess! So you’ve seen me having sex? I’m ready to shift. Distract me so I don’t feel pain.” I


    crouched on the ground, my fingers gripping the earth as I steadied my breathing.


    ‘Yeah, all the time!’


    “And who’s your favorite guy?” I asked as I felt a burn starting to coil in my stomach.


    ‘Beast!’ Of course, she would say that. ‘I can’t wait to y with him, Lucy!’


    “Of course! And you will y with him! But first, we have a problem to… Aaah!” A


    sudden pain crept through my abdomen and crawled through my spine.


    My gums itched as my fangs erupted, and it


    didn’t take long before I felt my face


    elongate until fur sprouted out of my body. Angel was right, the pain was nothing I


    couldn’t take. Soon I was on all fours, and


    my jaws dropped open as my gaze fell to my


    paws.


    I was a magnificent white wolf.


    ‘Are we all white, Angel? Or do we have


    another color…’ I think I already knew the


    answer, but I wanted to be sure.


    ‘Pure white, Lucy.’


    My eyes watered, as I nodded my head. The Goddess gave me everything to make sure I


    would save a part of me for her. White wolves are rare, and they usually have a gift, and I was not sure


    if there were any such wolves in this lifetime. But then, my knowledge was limited.


    ‘Thank you, Selene.’ I mumbled in my head, thanking her for my beautiful wolf.


    Angel began walking around at a slow pace. Her steps faltered from time to time, but she


    kept walking.


    ‘You’re doing amazing, Angel… You’re so


    beautiful…’


    ‘There’s more to me than the white wolf you


    see. Do you want to see the other side of us?’


    ‘Yes!’


    ‘Will for your wings toe out.’


    ‘What? You have wings?’


    ‘Just do it!’


    My eyes widened as I conditioned myself to


    let my wings out.


    Angel has wings? This will be amazing!


    Soon, I felt something sprout from Angel’s back, and something pped behind us before my wings


    cocooned Angel’s body, giving me a glimpse of her white wings.


    If my demon wings were pure ck, Angel had white as snow. This was like having two personalities,


    but I was loving it!


    ‘Oh, Goddess! We are beautiful!’


    ‘Yes, we are! I’m ready to look for Adan and meet our father again.”


    ‘Yes!’


    ‘But I want to run, Lucy! I hope you don’t mind. We can fly another day. I want to use


    my paws tonight.’


    ‘Of course! I want to run too!’ I retracted my


    wings and gave her a signal to run. ‘Run, Angel! We need to find Adan!”


    Her paws padded the earth before she made a convulsive spring forward and began


    running at full speed. My heart thumped loudly as her paws thudded against the


    ground. The wind was brushing against her fur as the night air filled my lungs.


    I felt one with the earth-like I finally


    belonged in this world, in this realm.


    Têxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ‘Angel… Is Adan our mate?’ I had to ask.


    ‘I don’t know, Lucy. I couldn’t tell while I’m


    dormant inside your body. But we will find


    out tonight.’


    ‘Okay…’ My heart was crushed. A part of me wanted Adan to be our mate, it was my only


    guarantee he would never fall in love with


    someone else but me.


    ‘Will it matter if he’s not?’


    ‘No. I want him, Angel. And he told me tonight that he loves me…’


    ‘His words made you release your fire, Lucy. His words pushed me toe out. So I know how you


    feel about him.’


    ‘I could feel Father,’ I told her. And as much as I wanted to reel in my feelings for Adan, the realization


    that my father was around was terrifying me, not for myself, but for Adan and his people.


    ‘Prepare yourself. I’m sure he won’t like it that you finally have a wolf.’ She reminded me before she


    hiked up her speed in the direction where we could sense our father.


    I hope we weren’tte yet and he hadn’t done any damage to anyone or the territory.


    We were still running when all of a sudden I felt heat rising up from my skin, but it was


    not from inside of me.


    Adan.


    No! Please, please! The thought of my father


    burning Adan almost drove me and Angel wild, and she was now running at top speed.


    ‘Lucien!’ I tried to connect with his mind.


    Don’t you dare hurt or kill Alpha Stone


    unless you want me dead!’


    ‘Lucija… Maybe I will if it will make you


    ‘I linked my life with him, kill him and I’ll be gone too…’ I answered him while my heart was pounding in


    my chest as Angel rounded a corner and I knew we were nearing where they were.


    Just a little more, Adan. I’ming!


    ???


    ADAN STONE.


    I received a mindlink that the new censor was showing signals of four supernatural beings with the


    same body temperature as Lucy, four hundred meters from the eastern


    border.


    Lucien had finally found her.


    Viktor advised that two of the bodies were


    emitting too much energy on the sensor, while the other two were also high but not as


    much as the first two.


    I knew one of them was Lucien, but who was the other? Having Lucien here was already too much,


    and having another one with his caliber would be a disaster.


    But I wasn’t backing down.


    I would protect my territory and my Luna at all costs.


    Viktor guaranteed there were no movements


    surrounding the four figures. They were just looking around as if waiting for someone or something to


    appear. I told Viktor to face


    them if he was up for it, or he could wait


    until we arrived.


    Viktor was among the few trusted top


    warriors who knew about Lucy. And I


    wouldn’t take it against him if he refused my


    order.


    But he didn’t. So he took four men with him


    to meet Lucien, while I made my way to them with Kingston on my tail. I was


    running on my feet while the rest were running in their wolf forms.


    Beast wanted to protect Lucy, but I had no idea if he was willing to take orders from me. So I just let


    him remain inside my head since he wasn’t still speaking with me. If worst


    ‘Dad? Where are you?’


    ‘I’m meeting your mother halfway. She went home to the estate but she’s on her way back.


    ‘You need to return to the packhouse, asap!’


    ‘I know, son. Collin told me Lucy is on her way to the packhouse. I’ll just take your mother to Collin and


    I will meet you at the


    east border.


    ‘No need. Stay there. I want Lucy and Mom fully protected.’


    ‘And how about you?’ His voice sounded


    worried.


    ‘I can take care of myself.’ I replied, trying to sound calm.


    ‘You’re facing a different species, son. You can’t just ck off.”


    ‘ck off is thest thing I will do. If we can’t hold them off at the border, I want Lucy and Mom with


    more forces around them, so please, let’s not argue about this.’


    ‘Fine. Just be careful. And negotiate nicely.’


    ‘I’m sticking to our n, don’t worry.’ I cut


    off the mindlink as soon as I sent those


    words.


    We already passed the border and were heading to where Lucien and hispany


    were based on Viktor’s instructions. If I were


    right, the shield the witch ced was


    effective. Otherwise, he would be inside the


    territory already.


    Viktor stepped out of his car, as well as the four with him when they saw us approaching.


    And then I saw him. Even without Lucy’s description, I already knew who Lucien was.


    His aura was too strong. His eyes zed red when they met mine before he toned them down, and


    they returned to their normal


    olive color.


    Collin shifted back to his human form, as did the three wolves with us, and put on their clothes while I


    walked toward Lucien. I stopped ten meters away from him, where I


    was sure the shield was still between us.


    “I was informed you were looking for me.” I stood straight and slipped my hands inside my pockets.


    “And it looks like you were expecting me.”


    Lucien took three slow steps forward with his hands sped against his back before he


    shed me a wicked smile.


    “Do you know who I am?”


    I nodded my head. “Lucien.”


    “What’s your name?”


    “Alpha Stone,” I replied.


    “Stone… Have you marked my daughter?”


    “Not yet.”


    “May I know why?”


    “I wanted to visit you.”


    “Lies.”


    “I’m not lying. It’s up to you if you want to


    believe it or not.”


    “Where is she?” The man behind spoke, he looked bored already.


    “At my home.”


    “I want to see her,” Lucien added.


    “Not until we agreed upon something.”


    “If you think I will negotiate with you over my daughter, you’re mistaken.”


    “Your daughter is my mate.” Chosen. So this was not a lie either.


    “She doesn’t have a mate.”


    “She does. Did you forget she’s half-


    werewolf?”


    “Won’t be long. Now give me my daughter and I will be out of your way.”


    “No. Lucy is staying with me.” I answered firmly but kept my voice calm.


    “Don’t make me use violence, Stone. If you think you can match up with me…”


    “I never thought I would match up with you, sir. But Lucy doesn’t want to…


    “Give me my daughter, now!” He roared as his eyes zed with red. And soon the empty space


    between us ignited, forming a line of fire that made me step back from the heat radiating from it


    because it was burning my skin, but I kept my face stoic.


    He might have set the fire on the boundary


    of the shield.


    ‘Stay calm, buddy.’ Beast spoke in my head, and although it was just three words, it was enough to


    give me back my confidence. 2


    “You think you’re wise enough to stand a barrier for me? I could destroy the enchantment in seconds.”


    He scoffed,


    crossing his arms against his chest.


    “I never doubted that. Let’s talk, Lucien.


    Man to man. We both have Lucy’s best


    interest at heart.”


    “Who do you think you are, Stone? I’m


    itching to drive this into your heart.” He gave out a devilish smirk as his hand began crumbling an


    invisible thing in his palm, and I saw smoke arising from it.


    But then his expression changed. His face paled, but it was gone in a second, and the smoke from his


    hand subsided.


    Something happened. I was still


    contemting my next move when all of a sudden, I heard movement from the bushes a hundred


    meters away. Leaves rustled, and a wolf’s paws were thudding loudly against the ground as the wind


    blew my way.


    My heart suddenly changed its rhythm as it began thumping loudly, but for a different


    reason now.


    I smelled her. My mate.


    A part of me should be terrified at the thought of finding my mate, knowing I


    wanted no one else but Lucy.


    But I wasn’t.


    The intoxicating scent I was smelling at the moment, the one that was making me


    salivate, was the same scent Lucy emitted from the first time I saw her. Only this time, the smell of wild


    freesia and moonflower


    came in full force.


    It was stronger, thicker, and more mouthwatering, pulling me into an abyss so deep that it made me


    forget I was facing a dangerous supernatural being.


    My head snapped in the direction where the smell wasing from, and my face lit up at the scene in


    front of me. Almost a hundred meters away from me was a beautiful white wolf running at full speed in


    my direction. Her eyes were zing crimson red. And I already knew who this wolf was.


    My eyes watered as an overwhelmed smile tugged on my lips.


    ‘Our mate found us, buddy…’ I whispered to my wolf, hoping he would share this


    moment with me.


    ‘Yes, she did. Time to im our mate, Stone.’


    A growl reverberated from my chest as I said the word I’d been telling Lucy all the time, but this time I


    was saying it with conviction, knowing I had the full right to im her.


    “Mine!” I growled at the same time Beast growled in my head. ‘Mate!’


    I didn’t care what was happening around us


    Lucy is mine!


    My feet moved on their own, and I just found myself springing forward to meet her


    beautiful wolf.


    Angel. Befitting for my queen, my little


    demon.


    I was running so fast, ready to wrap the white wolf in my arms, when all of a sudden her wolf shifted


    into her human form, and soon, a very naked Lucy was running toward


    “Adan!” Her face lit up as she spread her arms open at the same moment her wings


    erupted from her back, and it didn’t slip my ears that the crowd surrounding us gasped, most likely from


    my men, but nothing could stop us from this moment.


    As soon as we closed the distance between us, Lucy jumped on me. Our arms wrapped around each


    other, while her wings


    cocooned us in afortable embrace. And


    then I just felt us swiveling slowly as our bodies were being lifted off the ground.


    My mate was putting on a show.


    My hands cupped her face – both our eyes were watering with tears, but they were also showing relief


    and happiness, and our lips were tugging into a wide smile.


    “Mate… You’re mine, Lucija Valerie Foster.” I told her with love overflowing in my chest


    before I crushed my lips against hers.


    I knew it. I knew she was mine from the


    moment I saw her at the Omega Feast. The


    more reason that Lucien could never


    separate us now.
