Chapter 84
Xavier
Since my mate is pregnant and no longer capable of using magic. I left her sleeping in her bed this
morning. She will be mad at me once I return, but that doesn’t matter.
This mission needs to be done without Daisy. I can’t risk our unborn child just because my mate’s pride
wouldn’t allow her to sit back if she knew where I was going.
Nah, this is a mission for me and the other elemental werewolves. They are walking behind me,
gasping once their eyes lock on my father’s castle in the distance.
Caleb shudders once his eyesnd on it. “Such a creepy cliff,” he mutters. “Why do all vampires and
demons pick the scariest ces to live?”
L, who decided to tag along, grins at her mate. “Because they want to keep intruders away.”
“Good point,” Caleb says, looking at me. “What’s the n?”
“I will go inside first and weaken Lucian by challenging him to a fight. He may be more powerful than I
am, but I believe I can wear him down. Once I’ve done that, you guys wille in, but not until I give
you the signal.”
I look behind me to make sure all the elemental werewolves heard what I said. They all nod, all four of
them. And yes, that’s how many of them there are. The water wolf is Logan, the earth wolf is Aron, my
brother is the wind one and my dad is the psychic one while I’m the fire one.
“I hope this goes well,” Sabrina tells my dad. I’m not sure why he brought her alone, but I have no room
toin.
As soon as the elemental werewolves and I banish my other father back to hell, all of our elemental
powers will most likely vanish as well.
1 doubt my demonic dark powers will vanish, but my fire ones will. So, yeah. I will be fine, but the
others will be drained from expending so much energy to send a powerful being into another realm.
This is why I brought Caleb and L with me: they can assist in escorting the other werewolves back
home when this ordeal is finished.
“I really don’t like this ce,” Yatoments from behind me. I can feel his difort as we walk,
which is odd. I don’t think I’ve ever seen my brother scared before.
“Well, you’re not alone in that,” Aron pipes up, rubbing his arms even though it isn’t that cold.” This
ce gives me the creeps, too.”
“It isn’t intended to be inviting.” I offer, my gaze firmly set on the dark silhouette of my father’s castle in
the distance. “Much like L said, it’s meant to be imposing, to keep out those who aren’t wee.” I
don’t add that we fall into that category; it goes without saying,
We continue our trek in silence, each step cutting through the dark fog coating the forest ground.
As we get closer, I sense a shift in my powers. The heat that usually radiates from within me cools
slightly, responding to some unseen and powerful force. It’s a disturbing feeling, one that tells me
Lucian knows we are here. But there is no turning back now.
“We’re here,” Yato announces needlessly, his voice subdued as we stop before the massive entryway
of the castle.
I step forward. “Remember what I told you,” I say, addressing everyone but mainly speaking to the
elemental werewolves.

“Stay back until I give you the signal.”
With onest look at them all-my friends, my pack, and my family-I push open the heavy doors and
step into my father’sir. Alone.
The castle echoes ominously with my entrance, and soon, the door ms shut behind me. I wince at
the loud noise but keep on walking. This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org .
As expected, my father is waiting for me. He is sitting on his throne, his white hair flowing around him
with demonic energy before he smiles wickedly at me.
“Well, well, well, the son is finally back,” his tone is sarcastic and cold. “It didn’t take you very long to
recruit werewolves willing to fight me. It’s just sad that you’ve made them all believe they can take me
down when, in reality, you’ve brought them to their funeral.
Anger pulsates in my veins, but that’s when my inner wolf, Fenrir, decides to speak to me after what
feels like a decade of absolute silence. “Don’t let him get to you. Remember why we are here. Xavier,
my inner wolf growls.
I breathe augh. “How bittersweet to hear from you again when this is most likely ourst fight
together.”
“Mhm, and I can’t wait to finally be rid of you, Fenrir says, meaning every word. ‘First, you can’t ept
help from your own mate, and then, you go losing all of your memories. Life with you has been so
freaking painful”
“But it’s better now, right?”
I guess…” He mutters before adding, ‘Congrattions, by the way. You’re soon going to be a father.”
A smirk spreads over my lips. ‘Let’s defeat my father before we celebrate, shall we?”
“Good idea.
With my unique, mismatched eyes locked on my father, I let the tribrid within mee out and y: my
wolf-like senses heighten, and my teeth elongate like those of a vampire, while my dark hair, tail, and
leather wings serve as symbols of my demon heritage.
My father freezes before heughs. “So you’ve finally epted who you are…how interesting. Sadly, it
won’t be enough to take down an ancient demon like me.”
I don’t tell him that the goal is to weaken him before sealing him away. Instead, I watch his true,
gruesome demon self rece his human body. His skin turns into onyx scales while his eyes turn into
two pitch-ck pits. A stank of rotten flesh wafts over me, and I grimace when his face turns into a
lifeless skull.
My father is frightening to behold, but his transformation isn’t even done yet. He is still growing taller
and taller to be his true self: Lucian, the demon giant from hell.
As hepletes his transformation, I steel myself, ready to confront the beast before me. The ground
quakes beneath his enormity, and the entire room darkens further under his nightmarish shadow. His
laughter rings out once more – a bone- chilling sound that echoes through the castle halls.
“Scared yet?” Lucian roars down at me, voice echoing in the cavernous throne room. The question
hangs in the air between us like a challenge.
“No,” I reply with a confidence I didn’t know I had. “Not even close.”
I spring into action without further hesitation,unching myself towards him with my power aze. My
father meets my aggression with a bellowingugh and swipes at me with his colossal hands. I dodge
swiftly and strike back with a st of

mes.
Hisughter stops abruptly as he recoils from the heat. Now, it’s my turn tough as I surge forward,
darting between his lumbering attempts to grab me and retaliating with unrelenting assaults of fire.
“I thought you said I wouldn’t be enough?” I taunt between breaths.
Lucian growls in response and lunges towards me again, this time nearly clipping me with his massive
wed hand. But it only fuels my determination further.
With a swift pivot, I shift my weight and soar above him, using my demon wings to their fullest extent.
From this vantage point, I let loose a barrage of fireballs, each one striking Lucian’s thick scales with a
satisfying sizzle.
To my surprise, his growls turn into chuckles. “This is what you’ve be while you were away? A
fire-wizard annoyance?” He swats at me like I’m an irritating fly.
1 evade him once and twice, but the third time, I am sent flying into the castle wall.
Lucianughs. This is too easy…
I groan at the pain, but I can’t give up here. I have a mate and son that count on me, not to mention an
entire pack that expects me to bring down this demon.
So even though I’m hurting. Ind on my feet and re up at my father. “Is that all you got?” I call out,
taunting him.
Hisughter fades, reced by an eerie silence that only amplifies the loud thud of my heart against
my ribcage. Without warning, he lunges at me faster than before. I manage to sidestep his strike but
barely have time to recover before he tries to step on me.
“Watch out! Fenrir shouts, but it’s toote.
Pain shoots through every nerve in my body when Lucian’s massive, ck foot pins me to the ground.
Then, like I’m a cigarette on the ground, he grinds me into the stone floor beneath, my screams
echoing in the empty hall.
Hisughter is like thunder. “Is that all you got?” he mocks me with a cruel twist of my previous taunt
Those words make me re at him. While fire might not work, he hasn’t seen everything that I can do.
Darkness is a part of me, 100.
With every ounce of strength I have left, I fight back. My wings beat frantically against his ck scales
as I gather energy. Darkness builds within me, darker and more evil than ever before. Then, with my
eyes set on Lucian, I snap my fingers to lift Lucian with the sheer power of my mind.
“Wh-what the hell?!” He growls before I throw his gigantic body into the wall. It takes a lot of my
strength to lift someone so heavy, but I do it
His massive form crashes into the stone with a deafening boom, scattering debris and dust. Lucian’s
laughter has turned into curses as he struggles to regain his footing. I don’t give him that chance. I’m
hurling myself at him again, this time transforming my tail into a sharp scythe-like weapon to sh at
his onyx scales.
Lucian screams. “You f*cking bug!”

“Calling me a bug when you’re the one getting owned is hrious,” I taunt, grappling onto his scaly
forearm before slicing at it with my ws and tail.

Chapter 84
Lucian roars in pain, and it’s more satisfying than I care to admit. My relentless assault gradually peels
away his ck onyx scales-proof that my newfound powers are causing some sort of damage.
“You…!” Lucian snarls, finally grasping me by one wing and yanking hard. The pain is excruciating, but
the satisfaction of damaging him eclipses it all.
“I what?” I spit out defiantly, wing at his hand until he lets go. My body falls towards the ground;
there is no time to soften mynding. The impact jolts me hard, rattling my bones and knocking the air
out of me.
“Enough!” Lucian bellows, charging towards me once more.
But I have a trick left up my sleeve.
As he lunges, I roll out of the way and nt my hand against the cold stone floor. A ripple of dark
energy surges away from me, spearing toward Lucian with deadly precision. It hits him square in the
chest.
The monstrous demon staggers back, a look of surprise on his skull-like face.
I use the opportunity to call for my friends. “We have to send him back to hell. Now!”
Yato, Logan, my dad, and Aron all burst into action. They focus their energies on Lucian, sting him
with their elemental powers white chanting. I join them and smile when a portal opens inside the castle.
“Game over, father.” I say.
hell forever. I will only grow stronger there and
His ck eyes meet mine. “For now,” he mutters. “But you can’t keep me once I return to earth, not
even you will be strong enough to put up a fight against me.”
A shiver races down my spine. I know he is right; the seal will eventually break, but hopefully, my
firstborn child will be strong enough to defeat him in the future.
“Goodbye, Father,” I say, my voice steady, “You were never w
rthy of the title.” worthy
A final st of power from all of us pushes Lucian back, closer to the portal. Panic shes in his eyes,
but it’s toote. With a howl that echoes through the castle, he is swallowed by the vortex
He is gone.
