Beneath Her Darkness: The Alpha's Little Demon

Chapter 129

129 - Demon-lings ADAN STONE.

My eyes snapped open when I heard a retching noises, and my reflexes went into full action.

My hands reached out for Lucy beside me as I sat up abruptly from laying down.

But the space was empty.

My heart raced inside my chest before I caught sight of the light illuminated under the closed door of the toilet.

That was where the sound was coming from.

In seconds, I was already on my feet and heading for the bathroom.

I threw open the door, almost tearing it off its hinges.

"Lucy...What’s going on?" I asked, worrying as I crouched beside her.

She was naked, sitting on the floor beside the toilet seat, and from the looks of it, she was trying to vomit, but the toilet was still clean.

'Do you have an upset stomach?" She shook her head, and I wiped her mouth with the towel I grabbed nearby.

"Something moved in my stomach, and then J felt like vomiting, but nothing is coming out..."

"Are you pregnant? Are we having a pup?" I asked almost immediately, as it was the only logical explanation I could think of.

I couldn’t help the wide smile from tugging at my mouth, only for it to be wiped out because of the disbelief that crossed her face.Didn't she want a pup with me?

"It can’t be..." She kept shaking her head.

"What do you mean? Don’t you want to have pups with me?" I asked.

And then I realized something.

"If you think this is all about the heir that I wanted, it’s not about that.I wanted a pup with you, Lucy.Don’t you want one, or many, with me?"

Her hands flew to my cheeks and caressed them with her thumb.

She might have seen the pain that flitted in my eyes.

"Hey, Adan! I want pups or demon-lings with you.But..."

"But? Why do you have buts? Aren’t we all or nothing?"

I was starting to feel disheartened by this conversation, and I just wanted to walk away, but I knew I should change that attitude if I wanted to make this relationship work with her.

"You don’t get it! I want pups with you! But I just got my wolf — not even a month ago yet! And when did we have sex? In the demon world, it wasn’t too long ago.Not even two weeks ago.So how could I be pregnant?"

"Don’t forget you're a demon.Maybe demons have a different way when it comes to pregnancy." I told her as I helped her up from the floor.

My hand went to her naked stomach as I dropped onto my knees and pressed my ear into her belly.Nothing.

I heard nothing.

But maybe it was too early for a heartbeat.

Or demon babies don’t have a heartbeat.

"Do you hear something?" Lucy asked, her hand smoothing over my hair.

"No.Nothing...But I can smell your pussy," I answered while sniffing more of the scent swirling around me.

"Goddess! You're crazy!"

She let out a sigh, but I could hear her stifling her giggles.I chuckled before my fingers brushed over her bare pussy.

"Yes! Crazy and addicted to this.Maybe we should ask someone.Lucius?"

"Can you not mention my brother while you’re touching my pussy? "

She chuckled as she swatted my hand off her core.

I laughed heartily as I stood up and snaked my arms around her, pressing our naked bodies together.

"We should ask Patrea first.Maybe she knows something about pregnancy in the demon world. She nodded before she tilted her head up to meet my eyes.

"If we are not pregnant, you will not be disappointed, right?"

"No.We can always try.Every day.And night.I just need to work twice as hard.Unless, of course, you want to wait a while before we think of pups or demon-lings.Is it really called like that?" I asked, my brows hiking up.

"I was just kidding.I have no idea what demon babies are called." She answered before she pressed her cheek on my chest.

LUCY.

"Demon pregnancies are way shorter than human pregnancies.In three months or less, you can deliver the baby.It depends on how strong he or she is." Patrea explained as I looked at her.

I was sitting on a single couch while Adan was sitting on the armrest, his hand rubbing the skin of my arm gently.

We were in the sitting room on the ground floor with Patrea and Althea, but soon Alexa also came with Aeon, followed by Laira and Lena with their mates.

It looked like we could never keep a secret around here, which I didn’t mind at all.

"Three months? Wow!" Beta Collin exclaimed.

I was just as surprised as everyone else.

"From the time the seeds were inseminated in you, in twenty-four hours you could get pregnant,"

Patrea added.

"So my mother..."

I began but didn’t continue.

"I have no idea.The three months are for the full-pledged demons I saw in the underworld.And we didn’t see her at all while she was pregnant, but I’m assuming that, with how powerful Lucien was, and you as well, I want to believe she gave birth in three months or less."

"So in three months, we will have a little Adan or Lucy here?" Alexa asked, her eyes rounding.

"In one year, you can have three or four pups!" Aeon added.

"Wow! “

"If I'm pregnant.We’re not even sure.And yes, it’s crazy with that possibility!"

"Here.I brought a pregnancy test for you." Laira said as she held out two boxes of pregnancy tests, and Adan went to take them from her.

"Do you think it will show on the pregnancy stick?" I asked Patrea.

"Honestly, I have no idea.But there’s no harm in trying." She answered.

"I’m sure it will show.Adan, after all, is a wolf.So the baby is a half -wolf." Kingston said.

"Unless the baby was made while we were both in our demon forms...and Beast..."

Adan stopped with his words at the same time Angel growled in my head.Beast was probably enraged by his words as well.

"Forget what I said.Regardless of what form we made this baby, it’s half wolf and half demon."Adan corrected himself.

"Yes.Because I had a wolf within me when we were in the cove." I added.

"Okay.So let’s not get to how you made this baby.Maybe we should let Lucy take the test so we can see if she is or not."

Aeon suggested, and Adan nodded his head before he reached out a hand to me.

"But what if it doesn’t show on the stick? How will we know if there’s something inside?" I asked as I took his hand and let him pull me up from the couch.

"Demons can tell when they touch your stomach," Patrea answered.

"How? I am a demon too."

"I have no idea.So I think you have to visit your brother so he can tell you if you’re pregnant or not.I’m sure there’s a trick or two they are using to identify them.Otherwise, you need to wait until your stomach grows bigger or starts moving.If it’s anormal demon pregnancy, in two to three days, it will just grow bigger."

"But what if I’m not pregnant? Then what is happening inside me? Because I swear something moved in there..."

"Are you sure it’s not the tractor you have inside?"

Adan joked, which resulted in confusing the others.

I rolled my eyes at Adan.

How could he joke and remind me of my growling stomach when I was so serious and adamant about finding the thing that moved inside me? He raised his hands in the air before he smiled sheepishly at me.

"Let’s go and take that test before you throw me out of the packhouse."

The rest chuckled as they watched us make our way to the nearest toilet.

I didn’t waste time and did it after instructing Adan not to look at all.I wanted him out of the bathroom, but negotiating with him about this would be a lost cause, so I let him stay.

We waited for a couple of minutes and checked it, only to see one stripe.

"I'm not pregnant." I sounded defeated.

"Or it can’t tell," Adan spoke back.

"Do you think so?"

"There’s only one way to find out."

"Lucius.But how can I summon him when I can’t link with his mind while I’m here."

"I guess we can’t avoid it then.It’s either we go back to the underworld, or we wait a couple of days and see if there will be changes in your body."

"I don’t want to wait and not even know what to expect." This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

"Yup, my thoughts too..." He said calmly as he ran his fingers on my cheek.

"But I will never push you to visit your brother if you don’t want to."

"I guess I'll make an exception this time," I said as my hands flew to my stomach.

Earlier, I didn’t want to believe I was pregnant when Adan brought up the idea but seeing the negative result put my spirits down. It was only now that I realized how badly I want to have a baby with Adan.

"I’m ready to visit Lucius," I told him and it made Adan’s eyes dilate.

I guess, he wanted this baby as much as I did.
