    That exins why Aron and Logan joined forces with the Deluxe pack,” Xavier says as he strokes his


    chin.


    He is sitting inside our kitchen after my dad called him, and his resemnce to Lucas is so uncanny


    that I feel dizzy. Lucas truly is his father’s son.


    “They joined Alpha Max’s pack?” Lucas growls.


    “They did,” Xavier confirms, looking at his son with his own intense, different-colored eyes. His eyes


    are red and greent but not any less intimidating. “Logan listens to everything Aron says and Aron


    wasn’t too happy being demoted from his Alpha position.”


    “Aron doesn’t deserve to be an Alpha,” Lucas mutters, his gaze flickering towards me. He swallows


    hard, his desire for revenge palpable, yet he manages to maintain hisposure. “The Bloodmoon


    pack is better off with me as their Alpha.”


    I agree with him, Jinx says inside my head. ‘Aron is a pedophile and a rapist-I can’t wait to bury my


    teeth in him.”


    I smile a little at my wolf’s words but try to focus on the conversation at hand so that I don’t miss


    anything important.


    “Agreedy Xavier sighs. “Alpha Max is leading alone as well, but he has made Aron and Logan Ga


    *mas. They are, in other words, war leaders. So are their sons.”


    My mom and dad exchange a look before my dad decides to speak up. “Alpha Lucas, may I suggest


    something?”


    “Sure,” Lucas says. “I’m all ears.”


    “Great,” my dad smiles. “So, ording to my daughter,” he looks at me. “Alpha Max is about to open a


    portal to let all kinds of magical creatures into our world. His goal, of course, is to make a demon army.


    But demons aren’t the only creatures that will pour in. Elves, mermaids, mermen, witches, wizards, and


    even fae might enter. This means we should open ourselves to make allies with creatures that dislike


    demons, fae for example.


    Irma’s eyes light up at that. “Fae?” she asks, and I can’t help but roll my eyes. Ferngully is her favorite


    movie, and I can see the excitement building within me.


    “Yes, fae,” Daisy smiles.” Perhaps you should be the one in charge of finding them, youngdy, seeing


    that you’re so interested in them.”


    “That would be fun,” she grins and ps her hands in a way that reminds me of a kid at Christmas.


    “Are they easy to talk with?”


    Daisy and Xavier exchange a look, but while Daisy looks amused Xavier’s face turns pale. “Trust me,


    Irma. You don’t want to meet a fairy.”


    “Oh, hush, sunshine,” Daisy swats her mate’s arm. “Fairies are fun”


    “Fun?!” Xavier looks at his mate as if she is insane. “Do you remember our anniversary?!”


    Daisy grins. “When you identally opened a portal to the magical realm, and we fell asleep under the


    oak tree only for you to wake up to the smell of burnt skin?” she giggles. “Yes, I remember. The fairy


    shrunk you and tried to make you it’s dinner. It was fun watching you roll around on that spitroast


    before you realized what had happened. The fairy was very unhappy when you repelled their magic,


    and they no longer had a free demon to eat for dinner.

    Xavier shudders. “I can’t believe I didn’t wake up when the bastard shrunk me. Fairy dust is scary, and


    so are the fairies themselves,” his haunted eyes meet the ones belonging to Irma. Never show a fairy


    your fear; it amuses them. Also, never tell them your name.”


    “Oh, that does sound scary.” Irma grimaces. “How about the elves, then? Are they any friendlier?”


    Xavier makes another face, and that’s when Caleb steps in. “How about we don’t let my daughters


    recruit the new allies? I would very much like them both to stay alive.”


    I shoot my dad a smile. “Thanks.”


    Irma, however, pouts. “But what if elf boys are cuter than werewolf guys! I’m still trying to find my


    mate…”


    “Your mate won’t be an elf,” Caleb huffs. Elves are proud creatures, and their magic is ancient. It’s


    better if you find a creature less unpredictable than the elves.”


    “Mermen?” Irma asks in a hopeful voice, and I have to stifle augh with my hand when our mom


    res at her.


    “How about no?” she says.


    Irma groans. “But what if the moon goddess decides to hand me a mate that isn’t a vampire or a


    werewolf, huh? What then?”


    “Irma, Xavier cuts in, a serious tone to his voice that stifles the room. He might not be the Alpha


    anymore, but he still speaks like one. “Your mate will likely be a werewolf or a vampire since I doubt the


    moon goddess had nned for Lucian and Alpha Max to open portals to the other worlds.”


    “Well, I think it would be exciting to have an elf or a merman as a mate!” Irma huffs defiantly.


    Xavier chuckles, breaking the tension in the room. “Trust me, child, you do not want to deal with the


    complexities of interspecies mating. The cultural differences alone could drive you insane.”


    Daisy snorts. “Nice wordsing from the tribrid, but yes, I agree. You, for example, are very hard to


    deal with when you’re in a bad mood,” she teases


    Xavier res at his mate, but his eyes grow soft when she leans against him. The affection disyed


    makes me nce at my mom and dad, who are also cuddling.


    ‘Sure would be nice to be that close with Lucas, Jinx teases, causing me to blush. ‘Are you going to


    make a move on him anytime soon?”


    I stiffen and quickly shoot my wolf a mental message. ‘Jinx, focus! We have more important things to


    worry about right now.”


    ‘Do we really?’ Jinx teases. ‘Because I think finishing the mating ritual with Lucas would make both of


    you stronger.


    Her words make me steal a glimpse of Lucas. He is listening intently to the others, but when he notices


    me looking at him,


    shes me a quick smirk that has my heart pounding in my chest. His eyes hold a promise that stirs a


    longing within me,


    I’ve been trying to suppress for so long.


    nx wistfully sighs within me. ‘See? The chemistry between you guys is off the charts.


    Jknow! I like Lucas, and he knows it, but I’m too shy to make a move. Gah, what am I supposed to


    do?!’


    Jinx chuckles internally, her amusement trickling into my thoughts. ‘Well, first off, you could start by not


    panicking!’

    I draw in a deep breath and let it out slowly. Thanks for the advice, I retort sarcastically.


    Jinx just chuckles again, her amusement doing nothing to calm my nerves. ‘Don’t worry, you’ll figure it


    out.”


    ‘I hope so because right now, I’m acting like a love-struck teenager. I can’t even look at him without


    feeling as if I might fa from a heart attack…”
