Chapter 61 Aria's voice was filled with genuine interest as she questioned Xavier's motivations. "And how come?"The gravity of Xavier's response matched the intensity of the event. "Because I'd rather die at the hands of the lovely Alpha than at the hands of the horrible Demon."Those there had a variety of reactions to the statement. Despite the gravity of the situation, Adam couldn't help but be disappointed at Xavier's surprising turn of phrase.Aria's look was a mix of perplexity and fascination. "Is this some sort of flirtation?"Xavier's response was charming, with comments that were both honest and amusing. "Would it bother you if I were to be honest?"Aria's blushing was visible, even as she attempted to keep her cool. "Honesty is hard to come by these days, but it's a gem worth seeking."Xavier's reaction was seamless, his remarks continuing their lighthearted banter. "Like a pure beauty in a world full of fac
Chapter 62 Aria's eyes flashed with rage, her voice filled with deadly promise. "I will finish you," she snarled.Xavier's retort was sugary-sweet taunting that danced on the verge of arrogance. "Oh, my dear, you had plenty of possibilities, but unfortunately, the offer has expired," he remarked, his tone tinged with humor.Aria's voice rang with frustration and desperation, her remarks fueled by the coming confrontation with the Demon Army. "I cannot allow you to flee with my weaponry. What shall we use to fight the darkness that threatens to consume us?"Xavier's response was a brilliant combination of wisdom and impertinence. "If you seek advice, I might say that beginning a war you're bound to lose is a bad idea. Now, your only feasible option is survival—either engage in a conflict with us right here, a war you're bound to lose or, as you so sweetly promised earlier, extend your hospitality and spare the Oak pack. The option is yours, my bel
Chapter 63 My remark must have revealed my perplexity. "Me? Are you talking to me?"Xavier's gaze drifted away from the map and onto me. "You, indeed. Can't you see that I'm watching you?"The realization that he had been aware of my presence all along stunned and exposed me. It served as a harsh reminder that I was no longer invisible in this complex web of events."I knew you were aware of me," I said, my tone tinted with arrogance. "Why, therefore, did you choose to ignore me when I begged you? May I know?"Xavier's reaction was both calculated and unsettling. "There was no need for me to listen to your appeals at the time. But now my priorities had shifted."The conversation progressed, filled with layers of revelation and tension that emphasized our relationship. The connection between us, which had previously been concealed, was suddenly exposed, allowing me to cope with the complex emotions that determined Xavier's action
Chapter 64As the first shock wore off, the Oak pack members began to feel uneasy. Their expressions conveyed uncertainty, mistrust, and residual animosity. Nonetheless, their devotion to Xavier and the exigency of the circumstance held them hostage.Xavier, the enigma that he was, stood before us, a light of unexpected hope. He was noted for making decisions that challenged convention. This night was no exception, with a gesture that could determine our collective fate.We were about to embark on a risky adventure that would test not only our strength but also our potential for change and progress, with the enemy-turned-ally at our side.In a world on the verge of disaster, Xavier's decision rang out like a clarion call, reverberating through the hearts of all who witnessed it. The old fights would become legends, replaced by a new story of togetherness, teamwork, and unrelenting will to confront the evil that threatened to destroy us all.
Chapter 65Adam's watery eyes welled up as he began, his voice slightly shaking, "These times hold an extreme sensitivity." Towering darkness created by the invading dark army has sparked a desperate desire for salvation in everyone's hearts. Who, in the face of such impending danger, would dare to trust that their own pack would come to their aid? My mistake was a lack of faith, a failure to appreciate the breadth of your dedication."Xavier's words were gentle, and they could heal even the most broken hearts. "Buddy," he muttered, a delicate breeze carrying his words like a whisper, "In this struggle, I stand here not for myself, but as a protector for every soul among us. Our ties will stand the test of time."A stark difference emerged between the Xavier of old and the Elder Phycho Xavier who stood before me now, a tapestry constructed from two distinct periods of his life. Young Xavier wore his heart on his sleeve, drowning in sentiments and emotions.
Chapter 66"But be warned, I shall brook neither violence nor the stain of inappropriate behavior," retorted Xavier, his voice an adamant assertion. "Your home will be comfortable, but keep in mind that any irresponsible activity that leads to self-destruction will be met with rapid resolution. I hope you're not going down the same foolish path and make no silly mistakes as previously."My presence seemed to break through the curtain of their conversation. Elodie's eyes met mine, causing my heart to race and leading me to take two steps back, covered in instinctual unease."The journey ahead has many uncertainty for you," said Elodie, her voice laced with mystique reaching my ears. "There will be decisions to make, ones that will carry the weight of life and death, salvation, and sacrifice. You will face the most intricate issues to authenticate your way through these trials. I sense a stroke of luck and an unknown source with mysterious energy leading you
Chapter 67 My gaze stayed riveted on a heartbreaking scene amidst the upheaval and confusion that engulfed the battlefield. As three merciless Demons closed in on him, Xavier, the strong Alpha, confronted his imminent destiny with a courageous attitude. The Oak pack members and Vampires who surrounded us echoed my sense of helplessness, their features carved with dread in the face of an unbeatable foe.A revolver sat dormant in my grasp, its promise for deliverance thwarted by my hesitation. Though my heart desired to change the path of history, changing the past and the future, the intricate web of fate held me hostage. A bitter regret passed through me: if circumstances had permitted, I could have stood as Logan's beloved, free of Xavier's claim.If Xavier died here, he wouldn't be present to claim me, and the pronouncement of wonder law that united us would stay unformed. His death would not result in Levine's death, saving him from a gruesom
Chapter 68 Xavier, the calm voice amid the turmoil, interrupted. "Gentlemen, we must find a solution to close these mistrust and resentment gaps."Anthony, evidently irritated, fired back at Falkor. "Despite spending years hiding in the shadows, you appear remarkably self-assured, Falkor."Falkor, unfazed by Anthony's insults, reacted with a smug grin. "But, my darling vampire, the shadows frequently hold the most valuable secrets."The chamber became tenser with each exchange, weighted with hostility and the weight of history. Xavier's patience remained steadfast, a credit to his leadership. "Enough of this, you two. We are up against a shared foe who threatens us all. Isn't it time to set aside old grudges for the greater good?"Anthony's rage, a boiling tempest within, found expression in a final, cutting sentence. "I'm eager to work with anyone who sees that the past belongs in the past."Michael's voice trembled with real e
