Mike POV
“No.” I muttered through a bruised and cut lip, hearing the voice of the demon from the hallway. “Don’t listen to him.” I tried to say, but even I could hear how mumbled and broken it sounded. I attempted to open my eyes but struggled and knew instantly the blonde–haired fucker had swollen my lids closed.
“How did you get in here?” One of the Alphas asked; I suspected it was the one I had watched beat Anthony almost to a pulp.
“Does it matter? I can help,” The demon replied. I could hear the smile in his
voice even if I couldn’t see it.
“You have helped enough!” Kane’s voice cut through the air, anger crackling off his tone like thunder off a cliff top. Without my eyesight, my other senses had heightened, and I could smell the death and corruption infecting the air from the demonic presence in the room. How had I not noticed that earlier?
“Hear me, Kane Maddox, if I wanted you or your brother dead, you would be. I simply wanted some pre–show entertainment. So if you don’t mind, I would like to skip the whole dick–measuring part of this exchange and get to the damn point.” I heard the demon spew from his poisoned lips. Given how the air changed around us, the twins were less than impressed with the attitude rolling off the demon.
“See, now, was that so hard?” He asked; I couldn’t help but note that Knox’s usual cocky attitude was gone.
“Get to the point, filth.” Kane growled, the floor creaking under someone’s
footsteps.
“It won’t work because the moon goddess has linked the deal to the bloodlines. Your father and her.. cousin… Is that right?” The demon asked, my mind whirling with confusion. What deal with their father? Does this mean Alpha is alive? If so, does he know what happened? Who was behind the attack?

Chapter 125. Fight Fatel
“Scared, little pup?” a voice whispered through my mind. I swallowed through my dry throat as panic settled at the base of my spine, but I resolved to stay silent. Like I had a choice anyway.
“What deal have you made, Kane?” Liam’s shocked voice erupted into the room. When no response came, a scoff left the demonic scum’s lips, and he continued.
“So you see, the sacrifice needs to contain your blood or hers, and as Daddy dearest is not actually Daddy at all, and Mr Green is not related to the Royals, the deal will be rejected.” The smugness cutting each of his words had my lips pulling tightly into what I hoped resembled a smirk. I might hate the demon, but hearing the twins get knocked down a peg or two was fantastic, even if I couldn’t see it. I could imagine the look of disappointment on Knox’s cocky, self–assured face.
“How do you know this?” I heard Adam ask, his voice devoid of emotion and all business like the standard for an Alpha.
“I know it well because I can smell the magic weaving through Lottie and attaching itself to her.”
“Is there a loophole?” Adam’s calm voice asked again, although a tinge of anger clung to his words, making me curious.
“You haven’t put two and two together yet?” The demon asked into my mind, my bruised lips pressing together into a thin line at the amusement in his voice. I wanted to reply but knew he was trying to bait me and I couldn’t trust anything he
had to say anyway.
“Or help you!” His voice bounced around my head before I felt him slide into the back of my consciousness.
“Yes, but Tweedledum and Tweedledee here have clarified that they don’t want my help.” The demon laughed into the small room, a growl emitting from Knox’s lips.
“How will you help me?” I asked the demon as he continued to taunt Knox and Kane, my head pounding so much the voices of those around me floated away; I couldn’t keep up with their conversation and the feeling of the demon floating around my head and had no choice but to pick one to focus on.

“I can return your wolf, and you can heal.” He admitted, hope finally slipping back into my bones. I had thought I would die in this room, but if I had my wolf, maybe I would stand a chance against the wolfless Alphas.
“Now who is cocky! You wouldn’t! But I could protect you- for a price!.” The demon chuckled privately into the depths of my curious mind.
“What will it cost me?” I asked internally, but did it matter? I would do anything
to survive, and the demon knew that.
“In the coming months, I will approach you for a favour, and you will agree no matter your feelings on my request!”
“Done!” I replied flippantly, a deep, spine–chilling chuckle exploding into my mind, confirming he had heard me. The fear washed away when instantly I felt my body strengthen, a bond snapping back into place as my body relaxed, alerting me to Flint’s return. I wanted to scream with relief, jump up and tell those in the room to go fuck themselves, but I knew better than to play my hand just yet,
so instead, I stayed silent and allowed Flint to heal me slowly, my attention flipping back to the chaos exploding around me.
“No chance!” Kane seethed as I breathed my first easy breath, as the swelling eased around my face, and my ribs silently cracked back in place.
“Hold up.” Adam interjected, stepping in front of Kane and closer to the demon I was apparently now teamed up with. “You have your wolf; why don’t you let us make that decision, yeah!” He snapped his eyes, meeting Kane’s with suspicion.
“What’s the price you mentioned?” Adam asked, my lips pulling tightly with bitterness when I realised that I had been naïve to think I was the only one he had
offered this deal to.
“Aww, did you think you were special, princess?” The demon laughed into my mind, the sound like nails on a chalkboard.
“They know what I want–her! Or a tiny piece of her heart anyway!” the sly serpent announced, nodding to Knox and Kane seconds before all hell broke loose before my eyes. The twins lunged forward in a pointless assault on a demon that it

seemed had and always would have the upper hand.
“Fools! You can’t fight fate!” The demon announced as he vanished, leaving behind spine–chilling laughter and a sinister sense of dread that had even my hate–filled heart nervous for the girl I once loved.
“Loved?” Flint asked into my mind, making me grin and re–split my lip.
“Well, something like that.” I laughed, pleased that my wolf had finally returned and the demon had made good on our deal at least.
Author Note: I just wanted to take a minute to thank everyone for the support over the last 4 weeks. I know I have already explained, but I am grateful for the support, kind words, the DM’s and the amazing comments, reviews, etc. I ended up having surgery on my eye in the end to repair the drum, as it was in a bit of a mess (we didn’t know until we got the swelling down.) That knocked me on my ass but I am feeling better already. Although I still can’t hear and sometimes get bad pain, so bear with me, but I plan to update every weekday to start with, and once I feel back to my normal dickhead–ish self, I will be back to 7 days a week!
Thanks again guys! Your amazing X
