Chapter 124

BENEATH HER DARKNESS: The Alpha’s Little Demon Chapter 124 124 – Luna Lucy LUCY.

Beast and Angel initially wanted to run back together to the packhouse, but Angel was sore and tired, so they decided Adan and I could take charge.

But I was sleepy, and we didn’t want anyone to see Adan’s wings without having the time to explain first.

So Beast offered to take charge and let me ride on his back.

Beast sped through the forest lines in no time, and we arrived at the packhouse just as the sun began to rise and bathe the building in its rays.

We came out of the back of the forest, facing the east part of the house.

We were both naked, but I immediately flicked my fingers, and voila, we were fully clothed! The perks of being a demon.

“Wait...”

Adan tugged on my hand, causing me to come to a halt.

“Something is going on in front of the pack house.”

It was only then that I heard people talking, and from the sound of it, there were more than two people in a conversation.

Adan held my hand tightly as we rounded the packhouse and ended at the front, where a crowd of pack members was gathered, and standing on top of the steps was Adan’s whole family including Little Amara.

Only Alonso was not in there – he was still probably sleeping or being whisked away from here by his nanny.

The Beta and Gamma couples were also there and it looked like Beta Collin was the one addressing the crowd.

“What’s going on?”

Adan asked as we walked up the stairs hand in hand, and the crowd bowed their heads to us in respect.

Collin cleared his throat before he moved to the side as Adan and I took his position in the middle.

“Many people saw something flying over the night sky at midnight, and they actually came here at midnight, and I reassured them we were looking into it. But here we are now, and they want answers.”

“We are just concerned, Alpha, that some other supernatural or evil forces have infiltrated our territory.We need to be prepared.”

Someone in the audience said this, and my heart began to thud loudly.

They saw us.

Adan raised his palm in the air.

“Calm down.We have nothing to worry about, I will explain why, and I’m hoping you will let me talk before you ask questions.”

He waited for any objection, but when he was met by silence and nodding heads, he continued.

“Since you’re here already, I want to let you know that I found my mate, and she will be your Luna.”

“Luna Lucy!”

The crowd murmured, and I couldn’t help but smile because the females in the crowd looked just as excited as I was.

“We all know her as Lucy.But there’s a side we didn’t tell you about yet, but you all deserve to know.The one you saw flying was Lucy.”

“It has wings! Are you a fae?” Someone asked.

I shook my head and looked at Adan.He gave me a nod, so! proceeded to speak.

“I’m a half-she-wolf and a half-demon.”

There was no use beating around the bush, so I said it directly.

Gasps were heard from the crowd as Adan’s arm wrapped around my shoulder, pulling me closer to his side.

“It’s not going to change anything.Lucy has a wolf, and it makes her one of us.And even if she doesn’t have one, she’s still my Luna.”

Adan added when no one from the crowd responded directly to us.

“I like you, Luna Lucy, but is this something we should be terrified of? Demons are...”

The female’s face turned red as she stopped talking, she was probably concerned that her next words might offend or hurt me.

“I can assure you, I meant no harm.If you’re scared, I am as well.I’m just as scared as you are because, until now, I’m not sure if your pack will accept me.I can’t do anything about who I am, but I want to choose what I want to do with my life.And right now, I just want to be with Adan, and be your Luna...”

The tears threatened to fall from my eyes but I blinked them back as my gaze met Adan’s.He smiled warmly at me, giving me the confidence I needed.I smiled back at him before I shifted my attention back to the crowd in front of us.

“I hope you’ll give me a chance.I want to get to know all of you.”

“We like you to be our Luna.And we knew it—the moment Beast tamed upon seeing you, we knew our Alpha had found his Luna.We were just shocked, we never encountered any other species aside from humans.So this is something new.”

“I’m a she-wolf too...At least half of me.I’m still part of your species.”

“You’re our Luna, Luna Lucy.We’ll take you as you are if you’re willing to take us as your pack.We’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”

One of the older females said warmly.

My hands flew to my mouth as the sobs and tears flowed, and I tried to stop them, but the tears just kept coming.I never wanted to be accepted as I am, as I wanted at this moment.

“I am very much looking forward to being your Luna.I can assure you, I will always be on your side.So, thank you...”

“Hail to our Luna! Hail to Luna Lucy!”

One of the Elders chanted, and soon the crowd was chanting with him, and my heart just wanted to burst from too many emotions.

They accepted me right away.

This was too easy.

As if I were ina dream.

The crowd in front of the packhouse was probably just a portion of Adan’s pack, but it didn’t matter to me.

Having a few on my side was already a big start.

Adan squeezed my arm and placed a gentle kiss on my temple before he spoke.

“I couldn’t be more proud of my pack than I am right now.Through the years, you have never failed me with your unending support and trust in my leadership...”

“Because you never failed us, Alpha Adan.”

Adan nodded his head at the man who stated that as he let out a warm smile before he continued.

“So, I believe you deserve to know the whole truth about your Luna and me.I marked Lucy as my mate, and she did the same thing.We claimed each other, and in doing so, she shared a part of herself with me.”

Murmuring began to explode around us, including from our family, who were huddled on our right side.

Adan raised his hand and motioned for the noise to lower down, and when it did, he let out his wings, which popped out with a loud sound, but it didn’t drown out the gasps from the crowd, especially the one that came out from Luna Helena.

“I don’t have demon blood, but claiming Lucy means I have to have a part of her.And the two creatures you saw flying last night were me and your Luna.”

“Wow!” someone exclaimed from our back.

“I think that just made our pack and territory invincible!”

Someone from the crowd pointed this out.

“I would like to believe that.And thank you for your positive response.Nothing will change when it comes to me.I am still your Alpha, only that now, finally, I have a Luna to stand beside me in all the adventures that our pack will face.”

“Hail to Alpha Stone!”

“Hail to Alpha Stone and Luna Lucy! Hail to the Mystic Pack!”

The chanting, went on for quite some time before everyone settled down and Adan advised them to proceed with their day.

He told them that they were free to tell everyone what they learned about us today, but we would still be going around the territory to meet the rest of the members in their areas to tell them personally about us.

After the crowd said their blessings and goodbye to us, they dispersed, and we were now left with our Betas and Gammas, and our families that were still dumbfounded about Adan’s revelation.

The only one not showing any shock was Amara.She was looking at Adan as if he were made of sparkles and glitter.

“Dada...”

She approached us as soon as the crowd left.

“You have wings too! They’re so beautiful, but they are too black.Can I put pearls and glitter in them? And does yours look like that too?”

Her head tilted in my direction when she asked the last question.I nodded my head as I replied.

“Yes, but my upper part has some red mixed into it.”

I let my wings out as soon as I finished talking, and Amara’s eyes rounded as her mouth dropped open.

“Beautiful! It’s like I’m watching a fairy come to life!” She exclaimed her hands clasped together.

“Would you like to fly around, probably just for a minute or two?” I asked her, but my eyes darted toward Alexa, hoping she would give it a go, which she did as a wide smile crossed her face while she nodded her head.

“Yes!” Amara exclaimed excitedly as she opened her arms widely.

My hands went on her armpits as I lifted her off the ground, and her arms snaked around my neck, her legs wrapping around my hips.

We slowly ascended so as not to scare her off while she kept a tight hold on me.

“Oh, Goddess!”

I heard someone exclaim, but I didn’t check who it was.

My eyes were focused on the little lady in my arms as she reveled in the new experience, her eyes glowing and her lips curling into a wide ‘o’ in amusement.

“Adan! I’d like to know why I have to find out about your demon side with the rest of the crowd.”

I heard Mom tell Adan, and it made me bite my bottom lip.

Well, Adan had to answer that since he decided to keep it from them last night.

“Higher...” Amara said, snapping me out of my thoughts.

I chuckled and sped up a bit until we were on top of the packhouse.

“Ready for the real thing, the gliding and the swerving in the air?”

“Yes!”

She answered gladly.

I pecked her forehead before I adjusted our bodies as my arms supported her back and her ass, and I flew us around the packhouse grounds and into the forest, but not too deep inside it.

Amara was over the moon as she shrieked and laughed every time I drifted faster, diving and swirling in the air.

This day, like last night, was too good to be true like nothing would ever go wrong.
