Beneath Her Darkness: The Alpha's Little Demon by Cassandra M novel Chapter 138

138 - Demon Alpha LUCY.

"Fuck! Adan!" I cursed under my breath as another contraction hit me.

I was tolerable with pain, but this one was hitting me so bad I wanted to curse anyone who would stand in front of me, so I was thankful no one was in the way as I held on to the wall in the corridor of the fourth floor where our room was.

"Oooh, my demon nephew is due to arrive!"

Lucius appeared out of nowhere, a devil’s smirk was on his face.

"Fuck off!"

I growled at him as my hands tightened on my stomach.

The contraction stopped, but the intervals were getting closer.

"Why are you here?"

"The demon in me felt a new demon soul was about to arrive.Powerful as his uncle."

He smirked at me, but I saw the excitement on his face.

"Go away! I don’t want you here!"

"Not a chance.I want to see how he will come out of you"

The hand in my stomach went up and shot ice at him, which he melted in an instant before his laughter bounced along the corridor.

"Go get your female pregnant, asshole, and stay away from my pup!"

I didn’t mean the last part, but him annoying me right now when I was in so much pain was the last thing I needed.

Like my father, Lucius had many offspring spread out over the two centuries that he was alive.

But unlike in the human realms, demons never cared about their spawns or their parents unless they had a use for them.

Ever since Lucius became the King of Kalmerus, his spawns had sprung out from every corner of the underworld.

They all wanted the same thing: to sit beside him on his throne and be the possible heir in the future.

But my brother said he had no connection with them and was rather anticipating the arrival of his nephew, claiming he wanted to train him personally, something we haven’t agreed on yet.

"Adan! What's taking you so long?!"

I knew I could have just mind -linked him, but screaming was helping my nerves at the moment.

"The only reason he’s not yet here is either he’s fucking someone or he fainted..." Lucius said in a bored tone.

"Go away, Lucius!"

I growled at him as another contraction hit me.

The intervals were now less than ten minutes long.

Instead of following my order, my demon brother laughed again and let his body float into a sitting position as he watched me from the other side of the corridor.

I thought he was smart enough to distance himself so he could dodge if I decided to end his life right now.

Soon, rushing footsteps were heard, and Adan’s smell swirled around me, calming my heart, but then my water bag broke at the exact moment Adan came into view at the head of the corridor.

"Adan!"

I screamed as I held the bottom of my stomach, as I was scared my son would slip off.I should have spent my time watching labor videos instead of fucking my mate lately.

Now I absolutely had no idea what to do.

"Relax, we're here! They’re here!"

Adan said, but he sounded like he was unsure as well.

"Why did you have to leave me? You could have mind-linked them instead of leaving me in the bedroom!" I snapped at him.

He panicked when I told him the contraction intervals were getting closer together and ran out the door to call my OB-GYNE, forgetting he could mindlink or transport his body anywhere he wanted.

"I don’t know.I just wanted to make sure they would come here right away..."

He tried to explain as he held my hands before he scooped me off the floor, and carried me in bridal style.

Lucius chuckled at his response.

"What the fuck are you doing here?"

Adan snapped at him.

"Having fun.It’s not every day I see the Alpha of the Mystic Pack panicking.You look like you will faint anytime soon."

Lucius answered him.

"Fuck off and bother someone else!"

"Nah.I’m here for the big show.I want to see Lucija give birth."

"No!"

Adan and I said it in unison.

"No fucking way I will let you inside, and if you sneak in without my permission, I will forbid you from seeing my pup!"

And I knew Adan meant that.

"You’re fucking harsh.Don’t you even think for a second that I would watch with malice!"

Lucius hissed.

"I don’t fucking care! Why do you think her medical team is all female? No other man will fucking see how she will push out our son, and you’re not a fucking exception!"

"Fine! Fine! I’ll wait here..."

Lucius rolled his eyes.

"Your word, Lucius," I told him, squeezing Adan’s arm tightly so he wouldn’t move us until Lucius gave in.

I know it would mean nothing to Lucius to see me naked, but this was for Adan.I want this moment to be just the two of us when everything in our lives has been made public.

"You have my word, Lucija.I will not peek in, not even in my hologram."

"Good," Adan said as he turned around and walked us back to our room.

Soon, Candice, my OB-GYNE, and the nurses assisting her, as well as my Beta and Gamma females, came in, and they all began to prepare me for my home birth.

"Do you still want us here, Luna? Or did you change your mind?" Laira asked.

"Stay...I want my females with me."

"You'll be fine, Luna.We can’t wait to meet our little Alpha."

Lena pressed a kiss on my forehead before Laira did the same.

They moved back, giving Adan the space beside me as my delivery team prepared to check on me.

We can see the crown of his head, Luna.

One more big push, and he’ll be out.

Give me all your best so his neck don’t get stuck..."

"What stuck around his neck?"

Adan growled.

I squeezed his hand and shook my head.I'd been at a loss for words for the past few hours while doing my best to save all of my energy.

My son, was surely one hell of a Demon Alpha because he wasn't making it easy for me, letting me know who was the boss around here.

I felt another contraction coming.

"Are you ready?" Candice asked.
