BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 105

105 – Where Is He?

LUCY.

I stood in front of a full-length mirror

and looked at myself. The rightful heir to the Kalmerus throne?

Why me? What have I done to deserve this throne? I am a half-blood demon.

Were they mistaking my mixed aura as a strong one? Because I was sure that I

couldn’t feel in me the desire to rule this

kingdom.

I wanted to prove my father wrong, but I would use the fact that he thought I was his heir to my

advantage

– that he

couldn’t touch or kill me because it would

kill him as well.

Regardless if I was the heir or not, Lucius was right: I was the weapon in this war.

I summoned two daggers, and they came swishing from my weapon chest and stopped midair in front

of me. I grabbed them and aimed for the painting hanging at the far end of my room, aiming for the

center of the flower vase. In seconds, the first dagger flew out of my hand and

landed where I wanted it to. The next dagger followed and split the handle of the first one before it

dropped off the

floor.

I didn’t waste time, and this time, I aimed ice spikes in every corner of my room

where I could find a target, with only one thing in mind: my father’s heart.

Lucien had the fastest reflexes I had ever

seen. So making him a target was not that

easy, but I had to keep trying and find a

way to sneak up on him because the idea

of an ultimate demon form still seemed absurd to me. If Father didn’t have one, why was Lucius

thinking I would be able

to summon mine?

After what felt like an eternity, Lucius.

finally spoke in my head. ‘I’m ready when

you are.’

‘I’m not even sure where he is. Let me get back to you in a while.’ I answered him.

‘Where are you?’ I connected with

Guillermo’s mind as I took one last look

at myself in the mirror. I was dressed in black, skinny jeans and a lacey spaghetti strap top that

resembled lingerie and

exposed the upper part of my breasts. I let my hair down this time and fixed it into big curls.

I looked like a seductress, like a real she- demon.

‘Great hall. Miss me?’ He replied right

away.

‘You wished. But maybe… aren’t we supposed to discuss what we will do for

the cleansing?’

‘We’ll fuck. Don’t tell me you’re a virgin!’ He laughed maniacally, and I rolled my eyes before

transporting my body into the hallway where his bedroom was located. The area was deserted, just the

perfect

place.

‘You will find out later, I guess. I’m standing outside your bedroom door.

Should I go where you are or will you come here?” I asked him back before sending a message to

Lucius about where I was and that I was waiting to see if

Guillermo would come here as well.

‘Send me another message if he’s there, and make sure he’s facing toward his

room and not the other way.’ Lucius

instructed.

‘I’ll be there.’ Guillermo answered, and I moved a little further from his room so we would not end up

inside because

Lucius would not be able to teleport into

his room.

Guillermo whistled as he raked me up and down. He appeared beside his door, but I didn’t move from

where I was. I flashed him a smug grin as I placed my hands on my hips. “Like what you’re seeing?”

“Yes. Is that for me?” His gaze fell on my

breasts.

“No. For me. A queen doesn’t dress up for anyone except herself.” I answered

smugly. 1

“Cocky, as always. Come here.” He licked

his lips and motioned with his hand for

me to come over.

I leaned my back on the wall along his door and flashed him a smile before

inserting my hands into my jeans pocket. “No, you come here.”

“Is this how life with you will be? I have

to bend all the time.” He hissed,

displeasure was on his face, but it didn’t bother me at all. He was walking toward me and stopped right

in front of me, our bodies almost touching. Just the perfect

spot, as Lucius instructed.

‘He’s here.’ I sent a message to Lucius, but he didn’t respond.

“Maybe, maybe not.” My hands went up to his chest as I smoothed over that part

of his shirt.

“Are you looking forward to later?” His fingers trailed down my arm as he asked.

“I don’t know. I just want it to get over and done.”

“Maybe this will give you an overview of what you will get later.” His face closed in, and I knew he

would be kissing me again.

I internally cursed Lucius as I sent him

another message before Guillermo’s lips crushed into mine. My hands that were

on his chest clutched onto his shirt as I

slowly kissed him back, hoping the presence of the enchantment in the tower was enough so Adan

would not feel this betrayal.

I was kissing him sensually, but the demon wanted more and began prying my lips open while pressing

his bulging front into mine. I bit his bottom lip, pulling it before withdrawing from the kiss. I bit my bottom

lip as I pushed his body away. “We should save our energy for later.”

His eyes were blazing red, and his face looked deadly. I just tempted him, and I knew I was in a big

mess.

Where the fuck is Lucius?

“You might be the queen here, but I’m still the king when it comes to my dick!”

He hissed. Anger was rising from his aura as he gripped my hair harshly and turned my body around

roughly. He pressed my head against the wall as his free hand tugged my spaghetti top down,

exposing my breasts.

My hands flew to cover them as a gasp escaped my throat. Guillermo was still pressing my head hard

against the wall, yanking my arms away from my front, and groping my breast while his mouth was on

my neck.

Fuck! If he switched to the other side of my neck, he would notice Adan’s mark!

Despite the pain in my heart and my head from being pinned against the wall, I didn’t fight him off. He

needed to be in this position, facing this way, so Lucius could do his part.

I closed my eyes and connected with

Lucius one more time while fighting the

urge to kill Guillermo.

‘Where the fuck are you? He’s assaulting

me!’ I yelled at Lucius in my head as Guillermo’s hand slipped inside the front of my jeans, and I

couldn’t help it this

time. “No!”

“Fuck!” He hissed loudly.

And then he was gone.

My body slid down as the demon pinning my head to the wall just disappeared.

My eyes widened as I fixed my top while scanning the whole corridor. Where did he go?

‘Father’s chamber. Now! Step 2.’ Lucius’ words rang in my head.

‘Where is Guillermo?’ I asked him.

‘Later. Come here now. It’s just perfect

timing. And whatever you see is an

illusion I conjured up with the witch.’

My heart thudded loudly at his words. What was I about to see? Please, not

Adan.

I teleported my body into my father’s chamber, specifically his office, and found him and Lucius

watching

something in his hologram again.

I couldn’t see anything because they were

blocking it with their bodies. They both turned around when they felt my

presence.

“Just the person I was hoping to see.’

Father greeted me with a devious grin.

“Me too. I need your help.” I told him before my eyes darted to the hologram behind them, and I saw

two figures in the

dark.

‘Relax. It’s not him.’ It was Lucius.

“What’s that?” I asked, but I already

knew what I was seeing, and it was

crushing my heart, but Lucius told me it was just a deception.

“Glad you asked. Look what Stone has been doing just a few cycles after he left here.”

“What do you expect, Father? He can’t

remember Lucija, and shifters like us are

sexual beings,” Lucius added, scoffing as

he did.

“The fuck, Lucija! Control your emotions.

That’s Blade and Althea! Illusions,

remember?!’ He grunted in my head.

‘Where is Adan?’

‘I will tell you later. I just need to do that so Father will leave him alone. Don’t

show you’re affected.’

My brows hiked up despite the pain in my chest. The female, whose identity I had no idea of, was

straddling Adan as he sat

in the bed. She was still wearing her short pajamas, and they were probably just rubbing against each

other. 2

My head was telling me it was Adan, but my heart wasn’t.

Besides, Adan never let anyone hold his shoulders, not even me. He told me he would tell me one day,

and I wanted to believe that even with his memory of me

gone, he would never forget that he

didn’t like anyone touching his

shoulders. That part began in his

childhood, as he told me.

And this female was gripping his shoulders tightly.

It’s not Adan.

“Lucija, did you hear me?” Father asked, and it snapped me from my own thoughts.

“I didn’t. Again?”

“Does it bother you?”

“No. I was wondering if I would feel

anything.”

“And?”

“I feel frustrated…”

Lucius hissed in my head, disliking my

response, but I didn’t mind him.

“They’re having sex, and I can’t!

Guillermo disappeared on me just now!” I blurted out, trying to look annoyed.

“What do you mean he disappeared?”

“We were on our way to his chamber, and we were fondling in the hallway…”

“What the fuck was that for? Are you fucking Guillermo?” Lucius hissed as his eyes blazed red.

I raised my pointer finger to stop him from talking more. “It’s none of your

business what I do with my body.”

“I can’t reach his mind,” Father stated,

stopping me and Lucius from bickering.

“Exactly, that’s why I’m here.” I snapped

at him.

“What happened?”

“We were groping each other, and he turned me around and continued holding

me, and then he cursed, said fuck, as if he remembered something, and he just

disappeared.”

“Stop lying, Lucija.” Lucien hissed.

“Oh, Hades! Why would I lie? Have you been aroused, Father? Only to be left hanging?” I snarled at

him.

“I can’t reach his mind either.” Lucius

butted in. “Maybe he went out of

Kalmerus or this realm.”

“You are well aware that I can reach you

even in the heavens.

“1

“Unless he shuts off his mind,” Lucius.

smirked at him.

“Lucija, what have you done?” Lucien

asked me.

“I’m not lying. We were talking and kissing, and he disappeared. I will let you touch my mind and see if

these are lies. I

don’t know where he went. He just

disappeared.”

Father’s eyes blazed red. His hand was raised and was now in front of my face. ”

Let me in.”

Everything I told him about Guillermo since I appeared in the room was the truth. And since he could

not dig deeper other than knowing if these were lies, I was hoping I didn’t blow us all out.

He touched my forehead with all his fingers before he withdrew and shot fire

in every corner of his office so that we were engulfed in a big flame while cursing Hades.

“Find him!” He roared.

“Me?” I asked innocently.

“No!” He turned around abruptly and

looked at Lucius. “Find him!”

“I’m not his fucking babysitter!” Lucius grunted before he disappeared.

“Father, are we going to cancel the Cleansing later if we can’t find him?” I

asked the moment we were left alone,

drawing his attention back to me.

A wicked smirk etched his face as he

curled a finger under my chin and titled

my head up to meet his blazing gaze. No, my child. You can’t get away from

your duty. If Guillermo does not return on time, you will be mating with Lucius.

Isn’t this what you wanted?”
