Chapter 60 Daisy“End us all!” I stammer, my heart pounding sickeningly in my chest. “You’re saying she’s here to killus?” “Maybe,” Caleb looks unsure. “It wouldn’t make sense for her to kill you now.” “Are you saying the time isn’t right?” Caleb nods seriously. “That’s exactly what I’m saying, Queen Tanja wants an interesting battle, andthat’s why she never ordered us to kill you. She wanted you to master your abilities first, so her beinghere makes little sense. But her aura is… terrifying. She is angry.” “About?” He grimaces. “Probably about me joining your side? I was a pretty valuable member..” “Caleb! Daisy!” A voice interrupts us. We both turn to see Sabrina rushing towards us, her face paleand drawn. “Sabrina…” I say. “Why aren’t you fighting outside with the other?” “Because I…” she takes a break to breathe. “I need to tell you something important.” “And what is that?” I’ve never seen her this determined before. Sabrina is usually shy and quiet, butnow she steps forward, her eyes blazing with urgency. “Alpha Xavier,” she begins, her voice choked with fear, “He is fighting the fourth strongest vampire,Julian. But things aren’t looking good! Xavier seems….tired somehow.” I’m about to ask Sabrina more questions, but Caleb places a hand on my shoulder with a smile on hisface. “We will look into it,” he glances down at me. “Let’s go.” Without even waiting for my response, he pulls me out of the hotel room at a rapid speed. It confuses the hell out of me. “Caleb,” I say, “Wait, hold on. What’s the rush?” “You don’t think that’s weird?” he looks back at me. “I know Sabrina is your friend, but how the helldoes she know the name of the fourth strongest vampire?”

My eyes widen in realization, my heart pounding with a new surge of fear. “You’re right,” I admit,glancing back towards the room where Sabrina is. “How could she have known that?” Caleb gives me a stern look. “I don’t know, but it’s something we should be concerned about. Andthat’s why we need to hurry.” “But what if it’s a trap?” “It could be, but she didn’t lie about Xavier’s whereabouts. I can sense him from here. Would you mindshape-shifting. though? You could fly over the area in your wolf form with me on your back.” “F-fly?!” I shriek. “But I’ve never used my wings!”1/5 Get the App. Get All of XM XMDOWNLOAD NOW XO ?????? 10:56 Fri, May 17 Chapter 60

Caleb grins. “Your wolf is larger now after becoming an Alpha, and you have wings-it’s time to usethem.” “B-but!” He gives me a gentle push forward. “No time like the present, Daisy.” 51% My heart lurches in my chest. I can’t believe I’m really about to attempt this. But with a deep breath, Ifocus on my inner wolf, calling her forward. The transformation is quick and surprisingly painless, andin no time at all, I can feel the feathered weight of my wings on my back. “Alright,” Caleb says, climbing onto my back without even asking for permission. “You ready?” Am I ready? Not even close. But we don’t have time for me to stand here second-guessing myself. So I

nod-or at least, give what I hope looks like a nod in wolf form-and take a running leap down thecorridor. We make it out of the hotel. I’m so large that I have to squeeze toy wings through the door, but then thewind hits my nose, and Sera makes her return. ‘Beautiful weather!’ she exclaims inside my head. ‘Are you ready to fly?’ ‘Not really…” She just laughs. “Well, too bad because we have an Alpha mate to save!” With a powerful lunge. I use my strong legs to fling us off the ground, shooting upwards toward the sky.I’m terrified since nothing happens at first, but then, I spread my wings and flap them against the chillynight air. “Good job, Daisy!” Caleb yells over the wind. “Keep flapping your wings!” I can’t believe it-I’m flying! “You’re doing great!’ Sera’s voice echoes in my head as we climb higher with all the stars twinklingabove us. “Just keep heading straight,” Caleb instructs from my back. His ghp on my white fur tightens, fingersburied deep as I focus on the magic within me to fly faster. “This is… incredible,” I look down at the grass below us, but my amazement disappears when I see myentire pack fighting the vampires. Yato is among them. “He is fighting the vampire twins,” Caleb tells me in a bitter tone Marcus and Leia are two sadistic andmighty foes.” A sigh leaves his lips. “Do you want me to help him? He isn’t going to win against them ashe is now.” Since I can’t talk in my wolf form. I’m hoping he will read my mind while I think my answer, “Are yousaying Xavier and I can take on the fourth strongest vampire on our own?” “Julian?” Caleb laughs. “Hell yeah! You two will beat him in no time. The only thing that worries me is ifthe vampire queen decides to join the fight. Then you will lose. Hard.” I swallow thickly at that. ‘Well, let’s hope she doesn’t join the fight…”. “Or you call me if that happens.”

Call you?’ I ask, but before I can question him further, he leaps off my back and plunges towards theground. ‘Caleb!’ I cry out in alarm, but he merely grins and waves me off. 2/5 Get the App. Get All of XM O XMDOWNLOAD NOW 10:56 Fri, May 17 Chapter 60 51% “Focus on Xavier and Julian! he yells as he dives downward. “I will handle Marcus and Leia with Yato.After we are done beating them up, we will join you guys!” With one last look at Caleb’s rapidly descending figure, I turn my attention back ahead. From the sky,it’s easy to spot Xavier and the vampire, Julian, who is holding his own against him. It worries me thatXavier seems to be struggling. ‘He isn’t only fighting against Julian. He is also trying hard not to lose himself to his vampiric side, Serasays in a sad voice. It must be hard keeping himself in control in a battle, but letting go isn’t an option.” I know exactly why it isn’t an option. Xavier told me his vampiric side is crazy bloodthirsty and that hewouldn’t be able to control it if he let it free. And that’s his greatest fear: forgetting who he is and becoming an even worse monster than thevampires we are fighting here tonight. Taking in a shaky breath, I attack Julian from the sky, swooping down from the heavens like a gianthawk with my claws extended. Julian is caught off guard and leaps back just in time to avoid my dive. As soon as I land on the ground, Xavier’s large wolf form comes up beside me. His shining black fur isthe total opposite of my white and pink coat. ‘You’re late, he says through the mind-link, and I can hear the exhaustion in his voice. novelbin

“Better late than never, I respond, trying to mask the worry that creeps into my mental voice. “Ready totake down Julian?” “With you? Always.” I can’t help but feel a rush of warmth at his words, but there’s no time to dwell on it. We’re in the middleof a battle, and Julian is circling us like a shark smelling blood in the water. “Sera,’ I mentally command my wolf, “we need to be stronger and faster than we’ve ever been before. “You got it, boss, she replies with a fiery determination that fills every fiber of my being. We charge at Julian simultaneously, Xavier from the left and me from the right. Julian, caught in themiddle, tries to step back, but it’s too late. Xavier’s powerful jaws clamp down on his arm, drawingblood. At the same time, I take flight once again and come crashing down on him from above. The vampire cries out as my wings slam down into his body with a force he didn’t expect. For amoment, it seems like we have gained the upper hand. But it doesn’t last for long. He lunges at Xavier, knocking him aside as if he was only a cub Xavier yelps in pain before beingthrown into a nearby tree with a jarring thud. ‘All right, that’s it! I growl to myself and to Sera. ‘No more playing nice. Now it’s personal. “Finally!” she replies in my head, her voice brimming with pure bloodlust. I’ve been waiting for you tosay that, Daisy. Can we use our light magic and burn him to a crisp? Can we, can we can we?!” *Seems like the perfect time, I say, grinning internally as I feel the surge of power coursing through mybody. I lift my wings, and the air begins to shimmer as 1 quickly form ball made of pure light, ready to bethrown at Julian. Just as I’m about to sling it, Julian leaps toward Xavier again. 3/5 Get the App. Get All of XM XMDOWNLOAD HOW XO

He jumps back onto his paws and snarls, sinking his teeth intoJulian’s leg 51% +5 Julian screams in pain and tries to shake Xavier off, but he holds on, growling fiercely. I take theopportunity to launch my light ball towards Julian. It hits him square in the chest and explodes with abright flash, forcing him to let go of Xavier. Roaring in agony, Julian tries to get back on his feet, but he’s visibly weakened. His skin reveals burnsfrom where my light magic struck him, and blood pours from the bite wound on his leg. “You f*cking whore!” he yells at me. “How dare you?!” Julian looks ready to attack me, but Caleb and Yato must have finished their fight because theysuddenly appear beside me. Caleb stands protectively in front of me, his red eyes glinting dangerouslyunder the silver moonlight. “Play nice, Julian,” he warns, his voice deceptively calm. “Or we’ll all play rough.” Julian stumbles to his feet, wobbling slightly before he steadies himself. His eyes dart between Caleb,Yato, and me, sizing up his odds. “Why the hell are you fighting with the vampires?!” Julian yells at Caleb. “You’re a f*cking traitor!” Caleb shrugs. “Vampire women just aren’t as s*xy “What?!” Julian hisses. “Either way, it won’t matter. I will just kill all three of you!” He gives a scornfullaugh that doesn’t quite mask the desperation in his voice. “Three?” Caleb corrects with a wicked grin, “You seem to be forgetting someone.” On cue, Xavier lunges from where he had been crouching behind Julian. He leaps with a fierce snarlthat echoes around us This time, instead of biting him, Xavier uses his forepaws to knock Julian offbalance before rearing back and slamming into him full force. Julian crashes back onto the ground with

a thud that shakes the earth beneath us. “We have been taking it easy on you,” Xavier growls menacingly as he stands over Julian. “But nowwe’re done playing.” His green eyes flash with raw fury as he calls down flames from the sky to burn Julian alive. Hescreams as the flames engulf him. His once proud and monstrous form is now nothing more thanwrithing charred flesh falling to the earth, his screams slowly dying out. He has no strength left to fight. But even as we stand over Julian, watching the flames do their destructive dance, I can’t help but feel ashiver of unease. Our victory feels hollow, empty somehow. Like it’s just a prelude to something worse. Sera seems to pick up my thoughts. “What’s wrong?” I look at her in response, my mind failing to find words for the dread that is pooling deep within me. Butbefore she can press further, laughter breaks the silence. A cool, feminine voice speaks up, applauding sarcastically. “Impressive,” she says, clapping her handsmockingly, “You’ve managed to defeat most of my army. But unfortunately for you, they will all beresurrected once I dispose of you.” I know who the voice belongs to without asking, and Caleb confirms it by saying she is here. With fear in my heart, I follow the sound of the voice and stop breathing. She has long black hair,yellow eyes, and a white dress that hugs her slender body. The vampire queen is the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in the flesh, but her smile is all wrong.It’s a smile that could drop you to your knees, a sunile laced with an icy promise of death. 4/5 Get the App. Get All of XM Cam your ?
