043-In All Your Forms

LUCY.

“Are you an Angel? My special Angel?”

I should have smiled at the way he addressed

me, but his words only cut my heart. 1

“I’m not. I’m the exact opposite.”

My eyes watered, as I let my horns surface from my temples while my tail began to

swoosh around my back until it was

standing proudly beside me.

Adan’s mouth dropped as his body stiffened,

and I saw the shock in his eyes,

but I

couldn’t tell if he despised me or not. “Your

eyes.’

I had horns and a tail, and all he noticed

were my eyes. But yes, my eyes turned

crimson red.

“Don’t run.” My voice broke as my

shoulders began to shake, while I tried my

best not to cry.

When did I get so weak?

I was standing naked in front of the only man I was willing to show my true self to, and I knew that if he

ran away, he would shatter me to pieces.

“I’m sorry…”

‘Don’t be sorry for who or what you are.’ A voice rang in my head. 1

Am I hearing something? I swallowed hard and looked around to see if anyone else was present. Maybe

it was Selene speaking with

1. 1

My eyes locked with Adan’s again. His face was void of any emotion, and I hated it. I wish I could read

his mind.

‘Calm yourself or the fire will come out.’

Whoever she might be, she was right, I need to calm down or the fire will come out.

My horns and my tail, as well as my wings, were things my father would not be able to detect because

they were part of my body. They were my own.

But the fire was my connection to him it was a gift that linked me to him.

I dropped my gaze from the Alpha as I rushed toward where he was seated to grab the necklace on the

ground beside him, but before I could take it, his hand grabbed mine and stopped me from picking it up.

I felt my horns retract, as well as my tail, because of the opal stone’s presence.

I tilted my head to look at him as my heart thudded loudly. His face was still void of any emotion. I had no

clue if he was repulsed or terrified of me.

“Show me more,” he said in a calm voice.

“I need the necklace.”

“I want to see your full demon form. Out

your horns again!”

The way his deep, baritone voice came out

with that order was too sexy, making tingles spread in between my thighs.

I gulped and shook my head.

“Is this the reason why you can’t change into your demon body?”

“Yes,” I answered.

“If I throw it far, you can let your horns and tail come out?”

I nodded my head at the same time and let out a loud shriek when I saw him grab the necklace and aim

to throw it away.

“Please don’t… I can’t control fire without it! “I blurted it out as fast as I could as I tried to take it from his

hand, but he was good at taking it away from me.

“What do you mean?” His forehead creased as he slowly lowered his hand.

My breathing slowed, but my gaze remained fixed on the necklace in his hand. “Let me

explain… You promised you would hear me

out.”

“Explain then.”

“The necklace suppressed my demon power. It means if it’s near me, I cannot transform. into my demon

form. And fire will not come out of my body.” I swallowed, waiting for him to say something, but he kept

quiet. “I can’t control fire yet. I tried to before, but it was stronger than me. I can burn this forest if I get

upset.”

I had no idea why I was not telling him about my father and the fire connection yet.

“If you want to see my demon form again, I will show it to you, all of it. But I need the necklace around so

when my emotions

overwhelm me, I can take it and the fire won’t come out.”

“There is something you’re not telling me.

This is not just about the fire burning the whole forest. Why are you suppressing your demon power?

Don’t you want to be

stronger so no one will abuse you and force you to do things you don’t want, like the Omega feast?”

Adan knew me.

“My power of fire… it connects me to my father. If I use it, he will be able to locate my

exact location. And then…”

“He would find you… Your father, is he half

demon?”

“No. He’s a full demon. The prince of darkness. And one day, maybe centuries

from now, he will be chosen as the God of

the Underworld.”

“That powerful…”

I nodded my head. “He wanted to take away my werewolf blood and make me a full

demon.”

“Wow! Shit!” he grumbled as he brushed his palm across his face and tugged at his hair. ” This is fucking

overwhelming…”

“If you don’t want me here anymore. I will

walk away. I might be half demon, but I mean no harm.”

“What did you say?”

“I said I mean no harm.”

“No, the part where I don’t want you anymore?”

“If you don’t want me anymore…” I was not able to finish my words as he closed the gap between us and

grabbed my neck, pulling my face close to his as he crushed his mouth against mine.

Tears trickled down my face as I slowly parted my mouth and kissed him back.

He still wanted me. But was it enough for him to let me stay?

“Just let me go, and I will walk away. But

please don’t let my secret out.” I mumbled against his lips the moment he pulled away from kissing me.

“No one is walking away here.” He answered hoarsely as he pecked my lips. “My little demon… Should I

be scared of what you can do to me?”

I didn’t answer him and instead wrapped my arms around his neck as I hugged him tightly. “Adan…”

His hands went to my ass as he lifted my body off the ground, and my legs wrapped around his hips. “I

want to see all of you…”

I nodded my head before I answered in a whisper. “Promise me the necklace, you will throw at me if I

ask for it.”

“Yes… I promise.” He replied as he let me on my feet.

I was about to turn around but his hand

snaked around my wrist and pulled me back.

“Lucy.” His hand reached for my stray locks and tucked them behind my ear. “Will you let me ask

questions, and will you answer me truthfully after this? I’m still trying to get my head wrapped around

this.”

I nodded my head, his eyes looked solemn, and it made me uneasy. Was everything just sinking in now,

and maybe he would change his mind about making me stay?

“Good, now let me meet my little demon.” He chuckled as his hand landed on my naked ass, slapping

me a bit harshly, which made my body jolt as I jogged away from him.

I stopped more than 15 feet away, where I could no longer sense the opal stone.

“Ready?” I asked as my gaze wandered across the naked body of the Alpha.

Goddess, he was perfect! He placed a hand on his hips as the other went to cup his jaw, his fingers

rubbing his chin while his gaze

9-16

never left mine.

I swallowed and dropped my gaze to the ground, and slowly, little red veins began to show up on the skin

of my legs up to my thighs and all over my body as a tail grew out in between my hip bones, just above

my before it swooshed around me while the

horns in my head popped out on my temples. 1

ass,

I knew my eyes were back to crimson red,

and I was sure thin veins were on my face as

well.

I slowly tilted my head up, ready to let Adan see my real demon skin, and my mouth dropped open at the

view in front of me.

He was still holding his jaw, his tongue swiping over his lips, but he was sporting a very hard erection.

He snickered before he opened his mouth to speak. “You looked like the one who saw me transform into

something.”

“You’re having a hard-on…”

10/16

“I am. Fuck! Lucy, something is fucking wrong with me, but you looked so sexy in my eyes. Can I fuck

you in that form?”

A giggle rose from my chest, and I saw him drop the opal stone on the ground before he moved toward

me. Halfway through his

walk, I flexed my shoulders, and my big, black wings came out with a loud pop.

Adan stepped back with a surprised expression. “Mother of all fuckers! What the

fuck was that?!” 2

His eyes were rounded before he began to chuckle as my wings flapped gently, blowing air his way.

“Goddess, Lucy. I just want to hold you… Will there be more things popping out of your body?”

I shook my head, biting my bottom lip as I suppressed my giggles.

In seconds, Adan came like a tornado and grabbed my neck, and pulled me closer before smashing our

mouths and kissing me

11/16

brutally hard. He might have realized I was not the meek Omega that needed to be handled with care.

My tail swooshed and danced around until it wrapped around us, pressing our bodies closer together at

the same time that Adan forced my mouth open. He slipped his

tongue inside my mouth as I moaned in pleasure, but I was not done with my

surprise yet.

I willed my tongue to extend longer and swiped it inside his mouth, up to the walls of his throat. His eyes

snapped open, but my arms and tail around him tightened their

hold, not allowing him to move.

Soon, his shoulders relaxed as we kissed

again.

My wings flapped before embracing us into

a cocoon while I lift our bodies a few feet off

the ground.

Adan pulled away from kissing me, his eyes

12/16

widened in shock before a smug smirk crossed his face. “This is fucking awesome…”

I giggled and withdrew my wings around us before my tail and arms let go of his body. He dropped to the

ground in an instant, his ass first with a loud thud, but he didn’t even

flinch.

I giggled as I dove toward him and pushed his body to the ground before I hovered and floated above

him. My canines sharpened,

but they weren’t as sharp as his fangs. “Am I scaring you now, Alpha?”

“No, not a bit. You’re still my little bunny…” He smiled as he cupped my core, his fingers sliding into my

wet folds.

My body began to feel hot, and I was not

sure if it was the desire or the fire that was

making me feel hot. Either way, I didn’t

want to take a risk.

Before he could do more, I flew away to

where the opal stone was, and in seconds,

13/16

my body dropped to the ground as everything retracted, leaving me as human as I was before I

transformed.

I winced in pain. It wasn’t much, but I did fall on my arm in a bad position.

Adan rushed to my side and pulled me up, letting me sit on his lap. “Are you okay? Why

…”

“You make me feel hot. I’m sorry. I was

terrified it was a signal for fire to…”

“Ssshh… it’s okay.” He smoothed his hand over my cheek before resting his forehead against mine.

“Adan, are you sure you’re okay with me being here with you.”

“Yes!” He growled, his eyes dilating as his breathing hitched. “You’re not going

anywhere.”

“If my father finds out, I’m here.”

“Then he will find out.”

14/16

“I don’t want to go back to the underworld. I want my wolf, Adan.”

I saw pain flit across his eyes, but it was

gone in seconds. “Yes, we will do everything to let your wolf out.”

He might think I wanted my wolf so I could find my mate.

“And then Beast can mate with my wolf.

That would be fun…” I added as I smiled at

him.

“Yes, it is.” His eyes watered, but he blinked

them back as he ran his knuckles along my

cheek.

“Then you can mark me…” I said it in a very

low voice.

“But your mate…”

“Alexa told me that a chosen one will never be lower than a fated mate as long as you choose each other

for the right reason,” I said in one breath. “Of course, only if you

15/16

want. I’m already thinking ahead. I just got excited that you’re not pushing me away.”

“I will never push you away,” he said as he pressed my head against the nook of his neck and wrapped

his arms around my

naked body. “You’re mine, Lucy, in all your forms.”
