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

Chapter 5 – Curious Little Witch

PATREA.

“I don’t think I’ve seen you in your demon form. What do you look like?”

“For someone who wants to forget the underworld, it’s weird you want to know more about my demon
side.” He stated this without opening his eyes, his face still void of any emotions.

Lucien was handsome, and so was Guillermo, but I think Lucius, despite the constant presence of a
scowl on his face, was far better looking than them. “This human face you have, did you choose that, or
do you automatically have that like shifters? They have human form and wolf form, but they can’t
choose how they look.”

“Aren’t you a curious little witch?” His eyes snapped open, and he tilted his head in my direction,
making our eyes.

And his eyes just hypnotized me.

It might be some charm that he has that makes me relax around him. I dropped my gaze from him, and
it landed on his chest, which was very prominent on the tight shirt he had on him. I could see his erect
nipple.

Spirits! I felt like a cougar at the moment. But then he was definitely older than me, so…

“What are you thinking?” He asked.



“I haven’t had sex with anyone in three decades. I mean, with me participating in it.” For some reason,
it was easier to talk about this with him. Maybe because he was a demon, and would not judge me by
the words coming out of my mouth.

“I wanted to tell you that you can just lay down there and I’ll do all the work, but then…”

“I’d been doing that for a long time. Do you think I would ever feel satisfied with sex again?”

“Did he ever make you come?”

“Yes.” I shifted my position and lay on my back, my gaze focusing on the ceiling above me, while I
clutched my blanket just below my chest. “But I never enjoyed it. I felt dirty because I orgasmed even
though I didn’t want to. It seldom happens, but I still feel bad that it did happen.”

“Your body was reacting to being touched. It’s not your fault. Do you want to talk more about it?”

“About it?” I asked as I chanted in my head, making all the lights flicker until they turned off except for
the lamp beside the couch, but it was dimmed, making the whole room cozy and warm.

“I want to know what he exactly did to you and the way he was touching you. So I know what not to do.

“Are you not losing hope that maybe, you will not get anything from me?”

“Hope never resides with demons. I always get what I want, Patrea. I know it will take time, but I will get
it.”

“It will take time, or decades, or centuries…”

He laughed, and it made my heart skip a beat. I thought he would be mad at my refusal.



“What’s another century? I can have my fill with those females around me while waiting for you.” “Why
do you wait? It has been six months, and as you said, there are other females.”

“Have you craved someone? I haven’t. Except for you.”

I liked it when he said things without a filter. He would just say what he feels or wants to say.

I closed my eyes and steadied my breathing. Maybe if he got his fill of me, he would move on and get
away from me.

“You can sleep if you want to…” His words came out soft, and I was sure he had done something to
make me sleepy.

“Are you sure you’re not going to hug me while I sleep?” I asked before a soft yawn escaped my throat.

“I don’t do hugs, so you have nothing to worry about. I can stay here glued to my position for the rest of
the night while my mind works in the demon world.”

“You’re not going to leave, right? Because if I ended up having nightmares and Althea didn’t come, no
one would stop it.”

“I won’t leave until the morning…”

I turned to my sides, facing him without opening my eyes. For some reason, his side of the bed felt
warmer. I scooted nearer to him and coiled my body until I was in the fetal position, my head resting
just beside his hips as he was still sitting.

“Thankyou, Lucius. I’ll see you in the morning, or when the nightmare comes…” I mumbled as my body
felt like it was being lulled to sleep.



I didn’t hear him reply to my words, but soon I felt a hand land on the top of my head before it began
smoothing my hair gently. I wanted to tease and ask him what he was doing, but I was so sleepy, and it
felt good that I didn’t want him to stop.

I was certain no one had ever touched and caressed my hair in this manner, so I just let him, until sleep
took over.

LUCIUS.

The clock ticked six o’clock in the morning and using my enhanced hearing, I could hear voices around
the packhouse. People were already moving around.

I’d been watching her sleep for the last six hours.

She didn’t have any nightmares?

Nothing strange had happened except for her tossing and turning around, but her face didn’t show any
signs of her having a bad dream. She was smiling from time to time, but most of the time, she was just
purring in her sleep, like those cats I used to kick before. O

I should start treating those cats better.

For the whole night, she would move from her position and turn to the other side, only to turn again and
inch closer to me. And I had no fucking idea how to react to it.

The crown of her head was touching my hips, so I had to lie down instead, as I didn’t want her to wake
up and see my dick tenting under the blanket. In the end, she ended up under my armpit. But I was
rather enjoying it. But I did my best not to touch her. The last thing I wanted was for her to wake up
screaming.



I had never been in bed with any females except to fuck them. In fact, I had never stayed in bed for
more than an hour straight, so this was an underworld record for me. I had no idea I had the patience
to stay still like this.

I let out a smug smirk as I turned my body to the side so that I was facing her, our faces parallel with
each other. My hand went to her cheek, carefully tucking the strays of hair away from her face.

I let my finger linger on her soft skin, trailing it down her cheek when her eyes flipped open, and my
mouth parted as if I wanted to explain, but words got caught in my throat. So I greeted her instead,
“Good morning.”

She blinked. And then she closed her eyes, and I took it as an opportunity to withdraw my hand from
her face.

“I can’t remember having a nightmare.” She exclaimed in a rather excited voice as she abruptly sat up
from lying down. “Did you see any signs of nightmares?”

I shook my head and placed my hands under my head, bewildered at the happiness that brewed on her
face until her eyes began to well up with tears and her shoulders began to shake. A sob escaped her
lips, and she covered her face with shaking hands.

“Are you crying?” I asked, my forehead creasing. “I never had a good sleep for the last three decades,
Lucius. I almost forgot how this feels, and it feels so good.” She answered between her hiccups, her
hands still covering her face. “Maybe the charm you put in so I would fall asleep helped clear my mind
from the nightmares.”

“Charm? What?” I asked.



Did she think I made her fall asleep last night when I was wondering how the hell she fell asleep so fast
when we were just talking?

“I didn’t do anything at all.” I chuckled, and it made her remove her hands from her face.

“You didn’t make me sleep last night?” She asked again as she wiped her tears.

My lips pursed into a thin line as I shook my head. ” You slept on your own. Why would I put you to
sleep when I was enjoying talking with you?”

A smile crept on my lips before I licked them. “I think having me around makes you sleep better.
Nightmare free.”

“It’s just one night. How can you be so sure?” Her eyebrows were raised but she was smiling now.

“That’s why we need to try again. So three weeks?” I waited for her response but my eyes went down
to her body. The top of her breasts was visible on the neckline of her lingerie and I wanted to dig my
head in between them.

“Eyes up, Lucius.” She said but her voice didn’t sound annoyed so I let my gaze stay where it was. “I’d
been a good demon for the whole night, which is not ordinary for me. So I deserve a prize, don’t you
think? Let me gloat on it until the day I can touch them.”

She giggled before she shoved her blanket away and moved to get up. And for Hades’ sake, the
lingerie was clinging to her ass and it gave me a view of her rounded cheeks with just her lace
underwear covering them.

“Fuck, Patrea. Don’t do that again.” I groaned.

“What?” She snapped her head back to look at me. “Flashing me your ass. I’m a fucking demon, not a
saint.”



“Then we will have a problem if you stay with me for three weeks as I go around naked the house from
time to time.” She was laughing heartily as she made her way to the bathroom.

I knew she was probably joking but the thought of her naked still aroused me. I didn’t behave the whole
night just for me to snap and attack her this morning, so for the first time in my life, I cowered.

I left her room without saying anything.
