Xander growled at Nanny who had interrupt ? ” he hissed .
to her feet again and came towards him .
“ You dare
“ Let her go ! ” Nanny snapped .
“ She doesn’t belong to you .

like
She does , Sigma ! ” Xander smiled “ Does she know you’re not an Ome vou im ? ” Xander
chuckled .
“ L ! Would you rather go with the people who have lied to you all your life thane with me ? I cannot begin to even tell you everything you need to know about your so – called Nanny here .
”
Before I could react , Mr Dupree and two other Trinaxes had recovered enough and suddenly descended on Nanhy , pinning her down .
The Feral Wolves snapped and snarled at her , their teeth bared .
Nanny swung at the people holding her down , swinging with moves , I never thought I’d see .
She was fighting so skillfully- like a warrior , even better .
But there were too many , soon they overpowered her and pinned her on the ground .
“ See , Xander chuckled ,ing to where I stood .
“ Does she fight like an Omega ? ”
“ Let her go ! ” I said through gritted teeth .
“ It is me you want .
”
“ No , L ! ” Nanny shook her head .
“ He can’t have you , don’t listen to him .
He’s trying to use your to get his powers back .
All those stories about you being Neriah’s reincarnation are nothing more than a bait .
He wants you to release him from the prison she set over him .
”

“ What ! ” my eyes widened as I turned to Xander who had an amused expression on his face .
“ The blood oath – if youplete that ritual with him , it would awaken all of his armies tied and locked away through the years by Moonsingers .
And you’ll lift off the final ban on his power set .
by Neriah … please , you must fight this .
”
My eyes went to my palm and back to Xander who was staring at me with a smirk .
“ Maybe , I didn’t tell you all the truths but she’s kind of right and I wasn’t lying about you being Neriah’s
reincarnation .
”
“ You tricked me ! ” a tear rolled down my cheek .
“ You lied to me .
”
“ Would you have been willing toe if I had told you everything ? ” he scoffed .
“ Please save me the tears , L … you should be grateful that I told you the truth , the truth she has been hiding from you .
”
“ I didn’t know ! ” Nanny said desperately from where she was on the ground .
“ If I had known what you were , L … you know me , I wouldn’t keep it away !”
“ But yet she hid her identity from you ! ” Xander chuckled .
“ Come on , L , let’s finish up with the ritual .
You already awakened my powers .
You cannot stop me now even if you leave .
But if you y nice , perhaps , I’ll let you go .
”
“ Don’t listen to him ! ” Nanny shook her head .
“ Don’t allow him toe and inch close to you .

Mr Dupree reached down .
And struck her in the face .
“ Nanny ! ” I screamed , my voice trembling with fear and rage .
Xander’s eyes flicked back to me , cold and calcting .
Gone was the boy , who imed to love me .
“ This isn’t necessary ,” he said calmly “ We could have done this without violence but you leave me no choice .
”
The men began to beat Nanny , striking her as if she wasn’t a living thing .
When they stopped , Nanny was bleeding , blood running down her face , still , her gaze met mine .
“ I don’t care about my life , L … You can stop him if you want .
The only way , your blood can flow.
for the rest of the ritual is if you agree to him willingly and if there’s an affection that can easily connect both of you .
.
”
“ Shut her up for moon’s sake ! ” Xander growled and Mr Dupree pped her hard again , so hard that blood flew out of her mouth .
“ You see those Ferals , L , Xander came to me , cing his hands on my shoulders as he pulled me close .
I told you that most times they get out of control and destroy everything in their path .
Don’t make me tell them to tear her apart .
Come with me dear and let’s finish up the rituals , I’ll let her go , I promise .
Nanny shook her head , blood was pouring from the side of her face .
The sight of her beaten was too much for me .
Something inside me snapped .
Anger exploded from within me , igniting something primal and fierce .
Without thinking , I screamed – an anguished cry that echoed through the clearing .
I saw Dupree and Xander duck , covering their ears , but I was too angry to care at this point .
The Ferals were thrashed back at the sound of my voice , sailing through the air , and mming on the trees nearby .
Dupree and the others fell to the ground , looking overpowered , even Xander was on his knees , staring and trembling , his eyes wide with shock .
Nanny staggered to her feet , her bloodied face , looming in my vision , she was immune to my shout , at least , that was what I could see .
She suddenly grabbed my hand , hitting me at my back and immediately I stopped screaming and nearly fell to the ground .
“ You’ll be fine , darling … it’s over now …e on , ” she urged , pulling me toward the entrance of the clearing .
“ Let’s go .
”
I hesitated for a moment , feeling the remnant of my power coursing through my veins as the adrenaline began to fade and the exhaustion started setting in .
I was so weak that my legs were
barely able to hold me up .
But Nanny didn’t wait , she flung me over her shoulders like I weighed nothing , navigating through the fallen bodies of the groaning Ferals and Trinaxes .
The world was beginning to spin … my eyes fluttered
Just before they closed , my gaze met with Xander where he was sprawled on his knees on the ground and his lips were pulled back in a wide grin … his eyes shing in amusement as if something was funny .
62 The awakening I …
Just as I gave in to the darkness , I wondered why .
