Chapter 82
Daisy
The blinding light emitting from my wolf’s body is almost too much to handle. My eyes hurt. It feels like
my whole body is pulsating from the power inside of me. It wants to leave the confines of my body, and
I have no idea how much longer I can hold it within me.
“Stop fighting it, Sera growls inside my head. “Let it all out, Daisy
‘Let it all out?”
“Yes. You have to let it all out, Sera says. ‘It won’t be easy, but I believe in you, and so does Xavier.
And I’m sure the entire pack watching us from the ground believes in you, too. Everyone is looking at
you.”
I swallow thickly. ‘Do you really think I can stop the eternal night?
“Yes, but it means that you and I will no longer be able tomunicate. This spell will use up all of your
angelic powers, Daisy. Your wolf will stay with you, but your wings will disappear and so will your light
powers.
“But isn’t that bad? Lucian is still out there!”
He isn’t your enemy to defeat. The rest of the elemental wolves will seal him away, and then, once your
child has grown, they will defeat him… Now, let go and release all of your magic to chase away the
darkness”
Awhimper leaves my lips. My wings are fluttering in the winds and even though wolves can’t cry, I
swear my eyes feel moist at the thought of parting ways with my inner wolf. Sera has be such a
huge part of my life.
“Is this goodbye forever?’ I ask.
‘It is. Sera says softly. ‘But I’ve had a great time, Daisy. I regret nothing.
My heart clenches, but I have to be strong. Someone needs to bring back the daylight, and I’m the only
one who can do it. I’m the only light wolf in existence.
This is my burden to carry.
As my eyes well up with unshed tears, Sera’s voice grows faint. It is almost as if she is already fading
away. The thought of losing her fills me with a deep sadness, but I understand that I need to do this.
For the pack, for Xavier, and for the child 1 carry inside me.
“Here goes nothing!” A howl rips from my lips as I let the light inside of me pour out.
The blinding light bursts forth from my body in huge, brilliant waves. It feels as though I am shedding a
millionyers of myself, each one tearing away with a shattering force that leaves me breathless.
“It hurts!” I cry out in pain. ‘Make it stop!”
“But you’re doing it, Daisy!” Sera sounds amazed. The night is disappearing! Keep going, even if it
hurts!”
With her praise, I continue to banish the darkness. The light flows from me in endless rivers, cascading
across the sky and chasing away the darkness. It’s painful, but at the same time, it is incredible to see
the sun again.
The world below me gasps collectively as day breaks after what seems like an eternity of night.

It’s over.
I hang suspended in the air in my wolf form, every muscle shaking from the exertion. My wings, once
dazzlingly white and full of ethereal beauty, crumble away, dissolving into shimmering motes of light
that wisp away on the wind. The loss sends an aching pang through my heart, but there’s no time to
mourn.
My fur blows away in the wind and I be a human once more, exhausted as I fall towards the
ground. My strength dwindles away until there’s nothing left. This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org .
‘Sera
“You did well, her voice is sad and happy at the same time as if she is smiling through her tears.
‘Goodbye, Daisy”
I stare up at the beautiful sky with tears filling my vision as I fall ike aet through the clouds.
“Farewell, Sera”
I get ready for the impact with the ground, but something dark moves with the speed of lightning-Xavier.
He catches me in his strong arms as easily as if I were a feather.
“Are you okay?” he asks, but I can’t bring myself to answer him.
His beautiful face is a blur as my vision swims, but I feel the strength and warmth of his body against
mine, a solid anchor in the sea of loss that has washed over me.
I swallow thickly. “Sera she is gone…”
“Schh, save your energy” His rough voice is choked with emotion. “You brought back the light and
deserve to rest.”
I try to respond, but my voice is no more than a whisper, my body too drained to do anything more than
breathe. I can hear the cheers and howls of celebration from our pack below, their voices carrying such
joy that it lifts my spirits even as my physical strength fades.
“I feel dizzy,” I mumble,
“That’s okay. I have you. Xavier’s voice is low and soothing as he clings to me tighter, his arms cradling
me close against his chest. “Try to rx.”
With his permission, exhaustion creeps through my veins like crawling tendrils of ice, yet despite it all, I
manage to keep my eyes open to look at Xavier. His face is hardened with concentration as hends
on the ground.
I notice his wings have holes in them, and I widen my eyes in shock and concern when I realize that
even his face looks marred and burnt, “Xavier you’re hurt…”
“Don’t worry about me,” he says. “Your light was so strong I had to seek shelter not to get hit by it, but I
wasn’t able to create a shield strong enough to protect me.
–
“I’m sorry..” More tears swell up in my eyes. I lost Sera, and I hurt Xavier-this is the worst. “I didn’t think
my powers would hurt you…
“It’s not your fault. You had no control over the light when you released it, and that’s normal. He gently
wipes the tears from my cheeks with his fingers, trying to provide aforting smile I’ll heal in no time.
Just rest now.”
Despite his encouraging words, I can’t help but feel a wave of guilt wash over me as he carries me
through themotion of rejoicing wolves and into the car.
We sit in the back while Caleb wordlessly takes the wheel. Yato smiles at me from the passenger seat.
It looks like he is about to say something, but Xavier growls at him and presses the button that raises a
screen between us and the front seats.

I chuckle despite my tiredness. “What did you do that for?”
“He was going to say something soothing, and…I guess a wave of jealousy hit me,” he mutters and
hugs me closer to his body. “You’re mine. Not his…”
His familiar scent of pine and earth fills my senses, making my body rx in his armIS.
But the peace doesn’tst once I start processing what just happened out there.
“Sera,” I whisper for the second time, feeling my eyes well up once more.
“I know.” Xavier strokes my hair, his eyes solemn. “I know you miss her. But she’s in a better ce now,
Daisy. She is running on the evergreen fields now,”
The way he says it makes it sound so final. Sera is really gone…
“I’m here for you,” he whispers. “And I won’t ever leave.”
His promise hangs in the air between us like a silent vow. His constant presence might not rece
Sera, but it’sforting nheless.
“Do you promise?” I whisper back.
His hand strokes my pregnant belly gently, a small smile curving his lips. “I promise,” he says, that it’s
impossible not to believe him.
his tone so full of conviction
The drive back home seems both long and short at the same time, the paradox of emotions creating a
strange sense of disorientation. Iy my head on Xavier’s chest, listening to the steady beating of his
heart, findingfort in its rhythm. His. strong arms around me are warm and protective, shielding me
from the turmoil of the world outside.
Soon, we reach home. Xavier carries me inside, his steps heavy but unwavering, andys me carefully
on our bed. The scent of him is everywhere on the sheets, in the air- a constant reminder that I am safe
here with him. He moves to get up, but 1 grasp his arm weakly.
“Stay,” I murmur.
He looks at me with such tenderness that I am brought to tears. Of course,” he says softly.
Gently, he sits down on the edge of the bed to brush away the damp tendrils of hair stuck to my
forehead. His touch is soothing as he strokes my face, tracing the line of my jaw and finally resting his
hand over mine.
“I need to rest,” I tell him after a while, feeling sleep nipping at the edges of my consciousness
“Then rest, love,” he whispers back. “I will stay with you until you fall asleep.”
“No,” I hold
d his gaze. “Promise me you’ll be here when I wake up
He breathes augh. “I need to shower, but I will join you once I’ve washed away all of this dried
blood.”
“You can showerter,” I mutter. “Right now, I need cuddles, and you will give them to me.”
He winces at my tone before quickly moving his hands to the hem of his pants. “Of course, love.
Cuddlesing right up!”
Xavier swiftly removes his pants and undergarments, then slides under the sheets. His warm, firm body
against mine instantly bringsfort. He gathers me close, my back resting against his bare chest, his
arms holding me securely. I sigh in

Sera might be gone, but at least I still have Xavier…
