Sorry this was later than usual. It took me longer today. I don't know how much longer the story will be. I could make a guess and say another 50 chapters, but since I haven't actually written it, I don't know for sure. I keep thinking the story is going to go a certain way, but when I get to writing that part, the characters do something different than I thought they would. I do hope to have the story complete by the end of the contest.
Xavier’s eyes went wide in surprise too. “It’s the metaphor that came to mind,” Allegra said. “Vampires are not my area of expertise.” “He is physically stronger than I’ve ever heard of a vampire being,” Thea said. “And obviously, he’s mentally stronger.” “The full potential,” Allegra said. “Tha
Allegra looked at them questioningly. “He doesn’t care for blood,” Thea said. “He hadn’t tried witch blood yet.” “Fascinating,” Allegra said. Thea knew Xavier was uncomfortable with all the attention. She changed the subject. They talked about Thea’s gift, what she knew of it. “So your goddess g

Thea saw the pride in Alpha Ulric’s face. She felt it flowing from him as he took in the scene. Two decades of work, faith, and waiting were worth it. He was proud of her, the Delta team men and their sacrifices, and himself for making the right calls. Proud of his sons for being worthy of her and s
Xavier saw Thea’s body give out, blood leaking from her eyes and nose. He snapped his guy’s neck and sprinted over to her before she hit the ground. He was holding her in his arms before everyone else had snapped their guys’ necks. He sucked the Life energy leaking from the canine holes away from T
“Are you okay?” Alpha Ulric said. “Before we do anything else, how did this affect you? What do you need?” “I feel okay,” Thea said. “It was awful in the moment. Something new came out when you snapped their necks. I couldn’t concentrate to figure out what it was. Then the pain lightened—I don’t kn
“We weren’t sure how we would handle this part,” Thea said. “But we need to act fast before it all turns to chaos. Does anyone have ideas?” “We need to call in the Alphas we’re giving the packs to,” Alaric said. “Let them know what we’ve done. They’ll need time to get their warriors organized.” “W
Soon, Alphas started showing up to the school cafeteria. They took in the scene with shock on their faces. Alpha Knight came over to Thea and Xavier. “How are you doing?” “I’m okay, thanks to Xavier,” Thea said, looking at Alpha Knight. She sat up. “He’s already saved my life.” “I don’t know if t
