Chapter 66 Xavier I look down from my seat on the windowsill, rolling my eyes at the candles on the floor. My mother is performing skind of ritual with the other vampires.
"Summoning Lucian is a terrible idea,” I tell her, and I'm not even lying.
She immediately glares up atwith a dagger in her hand-it's covered in virgin blood from the willing participant, a young woman whose body now lies limp on the floor. It's sickening, so I look away, but my mother won't lethave the last word.
"Xavier," she hisses, the nsliding off her tongue like poison. It is not your place to question me, especially since you're the sole reason I'm doing this." I raise a single eyebrow in disbelief. "I'm the one to blame?" "Yes." My lips curfinto an irritated smile. "How?" "I can't trust you. I told you to kill the light wolf, yet you're keeping her alive-you're slipping and acting weird. If I didn't know any better, I would say you're second-guessing our whole operation." Instead of answering, I glance out through the window at the eternal darkness outside. I might have been the one who summoned it, but I can't take it back...
Shit, what am I thinking? Why would I even want the eternal night to stop? Maybe my mother is right. Perhaps I am slipping because every tI close my eyes, I see the face of that godda*n light wolf.
Daisy.
My insides sizzle with discomfort. Daisy isn't one bit like her past life, Serena. No. That bitch was cold and wanted all of the vampires dead even before the war came. But Daisy? Her Beta is a vampire, so she couldn't possibly share the ssentiments as Serena.

...bet she thinks I'm a monster. It would make sense. I am Daisy's enemy, the vampire prince, the one who brought the eternal darkness.
But I'm also confused and suffering from bad migraines because I'm constantly fighting back my werewolf side. I have to do it, though, since I would probably disappear if I let my two sides mix.
"You're not even listening to me!" my mother shrills, bringingback from my reverie.
A heavy sigh leaves my lips. "I'm heading out." "Wh-what? No, you need to listen-" Lopen a portal underneath my feet and leave the vampire castle without listening to her lecture. I'm over a thousand years old, for God's sake; J can't be expected to let my mother bossaround like I'm still a child.

They smell funny, but oh wow, what is that in their hands? It's a see- throught container of ssort, and it smells like coffee but different-sweeter.
I can feel my mouth watering even though coffee isn't blood. Is it because I'm a hybrid? Either way, I enter through the glass. doors, following the intoxicating smell.
Inside, bright light and clatter fill my senses. There might be an eternal night outside, but here, people are sitting at small tables or on plush couches, fingers tapping against little boxes with glowing screens. It's like the world isn't going under, and I immediately take my place in the line.
"I just wish Xavier remembered me.
I freeze when I hear Daisy's voice. She is standing in line with her friend, and I have to think fast. Do I leave? No, I want my coffee with my nspelled on the cup, da*n it! This is a dream of mine! He will, eventually," her friend says and looks around so fast I have no other choice than to alter my appearance in the blink of an eye.
In a split second, my usually dark hair turns blonde, and my piercing red eyes becan unremarkable brown. I even add a few scars, shorten my height, and give myself a tan. I'm now a young, naive surfer.
"Who is that?" Daisy's friend murmurs, looking directly at me.
Even though I seldom smile, I try my hardest to look friendly. It pains me, but what don't you do for the sake of coffee? I wait for Daisy to look at me, holding my breath even though I don't need to.
She won't be able to recognizeright? Daisy finally follows her friend's gaze and stares at me. Her pink eyes widen, and for a moment, recognition flickers. Just as quickly, it disappears and is replaced by confusion.
"Hi," I say, trying to sound friendly. "You don't happen to have any money? I'm broke." Daisy and her friend fall silent before Daisy whispers, "You wont believe this, but I think that guy is my second- chance mate. I feel weird looking into his eyes. There are bubbles in my chest." does she think I can't hear her? I guess I don't smell like a vampire since I've masked it, but seriously? I'm not deaf! Who do they think I am?! "He is kind of hot.." her friend says. "Would you like to buy hima coffee or frappe? Talk to him a little?" Daisy blushes and looksup and down before whispering back. "Do you think he minds that I'm pregnant? If he is my second-chance mate, maybe I should at least hear him out? I would hate to be rejected since I know how it feels." Frustration courses through me.

"No, not at all," I say, my voice taking on the laid-back tone of a surfer. "I'd love coffee, actually. And for the record" I point to my ears and shrug nonchalantly, "I can hear everything you're saying. But it's all good, really." Daisy reddens even further, her blush spreading from her cheeks to the tips of her cars. Her friend giggles, apparently delighted by the turn of events.

"No need to," I say, my smile never leaving my face. "Happens all the time." Her friend, the dark-haired girl with the devilish smile, nudges Daisy playfully before looking at me. “Do you want to join us? The coffee is on me." Should I? These two are my enemies, but...
I glance at Daisy, who squirms in her place. I'm confused about her callingher mate. I don't feel anything, but this is the perfect opportunity to spy on her. And no, I'm not interested in her or anything. This is just part of the cat-and-mouse gthat we are playing.

Daisy's friend stifles a giggle. "Well, Matt, who likes seashells and stuff. I'm Lola. And my lovely single friend who is looking. for a man is Daisy." She points to her friend, who has now managed to blush an even darker shade of red.
Nice to meet you, Lola. Daisy," I add quickly, letting my gaze linger on Daisy's pink eyes. She is extremely nervous aroundand I smile evilly to myself. This will be fun...
