Chapter 90

BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon

090 – Love Is A Myth

LUCIUS.

I got bored waiting while they were eating, so I began to taunt Adan. But I

couldn’t use fire since I wasn’t sure if

Lucien was watching his fiber, so I used other weapons instead.

Adan was surely improving, and he knew what he was doing. He was practically the exact counterpart
of Lucija — he learned just as fast as her.

I needed him so he could fight off the rest of the demons while Lucija and I tackled our father. But from
the way he

summoned fire as if he owned them and how strong they were, I was sure he could fight off Guillermo
and maybe even Lucien.

I didn’t know he could be that strong

after such a short period. I wasn’t lying

when I said that hatred and the desire to

hurt the other party involved making a demon’s power stronger

but I wasn’t

expecting him to go all out just after a day of training him.



It took me decades to learn how to fire

multiple fireballs, but he was able to do it within 24 hours. In my defense, I was young then, and despite
being a demon, I didn’t have any energy to let my anger out. I was just hoping to survive then and was
going with the flow, so that might be the reason it took time for me to learn how to summon multiple
fireballs.

But Stone- it’s either that he had hatred brewing inside him for so long or he hated me to a hilt and was
just good at hiding it. Or he was really into Lucija, and the thought of anyone touching her made him
angry and hateful.

For a moment I thought he was about to

transform into a demon by the way his

eyes blazed red and the black veins that began crawling on his skin.

Was it their mate bond that made him release that strong energy? Was that love? I’d heard of love, but
I never gave a fuck about it.

Love is a myth. And people used it to get what they wanted: sex, money, family, and companionship.
But in reality, it

never exists. It was just a word they used to make women give up their bodies for sex or for men to
follow them around like lovesick puppies.

“Be grateful that Patrea saved you. Taunt me one more time about touching Lucy’s body, and you will
not have a way out.” Adan was on my tail as I carried Patrea’s unconscious body inside the cottage.

The multiple shields she let out drained her energy. Another proof that Stone’s



fireballs were too strong.

“You know you can’t kill me with those fire. You just took me by surprise.” I told him as I continued
walking.

“Yeah, tell that to Hades! Now explain about that thing you said about Lucija!” Stone was snapping at
me, and if Patrea were not in my arms, I probably would have had his neck broken by now.

If he thought being an Alpha made him superior to me, he was a fucking idiot. If he were not the only
reason that kept Lucija off the throne, I would never tolerate him at all, and I knew the feeling was
mutual.

“You have to wait because if you’re

fucking blind, I have a witch in my arms that you knocked off with your power!” I snapped back at him.

“You could have just magically teleported your bodies to her room and it would

4/15

have been done, but of course, you didn’t. Because you’re a fucking pervert who wants to take
advantage of her

unconscious body.”

“Fuck you.” I hissed at him as I doubled

my steps on the way up the stairs.

“No, thanks, I will have my own fuck tonight! Now hurry up! We need to talk!” He didn’t follow after me
and instead slumped his body on the couch in the living room while I was still fuming mad at him.



“Can you both calm down? We’re all on the same team, so you can’t bite off each other’s heads all the
time. It’s not helping. “I heard Kingston say that before I heard footsteps following me on the stairs and
into Patrea’s room.

“What do you want now?” I asked him as I kicked the door to open it wider so I could come in.

“I will check on her so you can talk with

Alpha Stone.” He answered calmly.

“What do you need to check on her?”

“Just the basics. Make sure she’s just unconscious and not…”

“Stone said she’s alive and just needs to rest. So what are you checking more of?” I didn’t let him finish
his words as I

snapped at him.

His eyes widened as he raised his palms. and stepped backward out of the door. “I thought I was
helping so you could go down and talk with Adan while I made Patrea comfortable in her room.”

“I can do that. Now leave and babysit your fucking Alpha instead.”

Kingston saluted me before turning around without saying anything and

walking away with a deep sigh. I knew the

Gamma was trying to help, but I didn’t need any right now, and his Alpha was pissing me off.

I carefully placed Patrea in her bed and tucked her inside the blanket. I watched her chest rise and fall;
it let me know she was just sleeping and might wake up anytime soon.



I should go and leave her alone, but this was my only time to look at her. I let my knuckles run along
her cheek for a few seconds, marveling at the softness of her skin.

She’s beautiful. I couldn’t deny that.

I knew the first time I laid eyes on her that my lust had spiraled out of control. I knew I wanted a taste of
her. But that was before. Now all I could think about was how her mouth twitched when she tried to
suppress a smile and how I felt so

accomplished when that smile finally

curled on her lips. The lust was still there, and it was growing every cycle, but aside from that, I was
looking forward to her presence. I just wanted to see her all the time.

I didn’t care what she and my father had. I knew I wanted her for myself, but I also wanted her to be
happy.

Earlier, she mentioned she was missing the normality in her life.

She wanted a normal life, and the only way she would be able to achieve that was if she could get
away from the likes of me.

I had to do everything in my power to make sure she would not be caught in the war I wanted to start. I
had to make sure she would come out alive and be able to live the life my father took away from her.

But first, if we both survived this, I would still ask for that one night with her. And then I would let her go
and never bother

her again.



That will also mean that Lucija will never find out who the queen was that I had in mind because Patrea
would never agree to be one. I will never be able to give her the normal life she wants.

“You looked like life was sucked out of you.” Stone’s words snapped me back to the present. I didn’t
even realize I left Patrea’s room and gone back to the living

room.

“What do you mean?” My forehead creased, confused by his words.

“Oh, nothing, forget about it. I forgot that demons don’t have any feelings at all. So it must be just a
face you are showing right now.”

“The fuck are you talking about?” I asked as I sat on the couch on his left.

Stone threw in questions instead of

answering. “Tell me more about the cleansing. You told me Lucija had to be fucked by demons, but it
will not get to that because we will stop it before it happens. And now you’re telling me you need to fuck
her?” His eyes dilated, but he was surely putting his emotions under total control.

“The real problem here is not me. It’s Guillermo.”

“Get straight to the point!”

“Then shut the fuck up so I can talk!” I hissed. I was already losing my patience, and I was sure I was
not the only one. Father wants Guillermo, that’s one of his sons, to fuck Lucija and kill her wolf in the
process.

Stone growled, and my eyes squinted as I waited for his growling to finish before I continued. “Lucija
needs to convince

Father to choose me instead of Guillermo.

“No one will touch what’s mine!”

“Relax. I get that. I won’t touch her. I wanted you to take my form so you could roam around the tower
freely, but we can use it now for this. All we have to do is get Guillermo out of the way.”

“Then we need to fucking kill him.”

“If you think Guillermo is an ordinary demon, he’s not. If Father refuses

Lucija’s request to have me instead of Guillermo, we’ll need a backup plan.”

“Just tell me what needs to be done. I will fucking do it, but I want a guarantee no one will touch Lucy!”

“I gave you my word before, and I’m not taking it back. Lucija will always be the priority here. I will
make sure she gets out of this unharmed.”

“And unfucked by anyone but me! Are we fucking clear, Lucius?”

“Yes. But just so you understand, Lucija is a demon. If the worst happens and that thing happens, I’m
sure Lucija would be able to move on from it.”

“I don’t care if she’s a demon, an angel, or a fucking statue! She’s fucking mine, and the moment
someone violates her, I don’t think I will be able to think straight and go with any fucking plans
anymore! I will kill everyone around me!”



“Calm down! We’re talking about demons here, not werewolves. I will do my best, so it won’t get to
that.”

“Why can’t we just go before the cleansing? Why do we have to wait?”

“Why? Are you ready to go now? Can we gather his best defense and right hand at any time? Do you
know how my father

works? You have no idea, and yet, you just want to go and do a suicide mission!”

I watched as Stone brushed his palms

against his neck before I continued.

“The cleansing is our best chance! My father never lets anyone bother him before any rituals. And that
goes for his second in command. Every piece of news and security had to pass through me at all times
during major ritual events like this. This is the only way we can get past the portals safely. If someone
notices us, they will get to me, and I can stop it even before it reaches Lucien.”

Adan let out a low growl as he propped his elbows on his knees and palmed his face. “Why is it so
fucking hard to have Lucy?”

“Are you giving up now?”

“No. Never.”

I let out a deep sigh and rested my head on the backrest of the couch. I wanted to

kill my father, but I didn’t want to have many demon casualties. That was the reason I was aiming for
the cleansing, so everyone we needed to kill was secluded in the ritual cavern.

“When is Althea coming?” I asked after a moment of silence.



“She’s on her way here. She’ll arrive

tonight.” His voice was calmer now.

“Does Patrea know she’s arriving?”

“No. We just got the message this

morning when we woke up.

“Do you think she will help us?”

“I think she will unless Patrea stops here.

“I will deal with Patrea on that.” I stood up from the couch and walked toward the

door. “Get up, we need to practice shape-

shifting. You need to practice my

mannerism as well.”
