Chapter 141

Skylar

Since Lucas and I don’t have a plan, we just walk straight into the room where his Dad is fighting Lucian. He looks a bit shocked when he sees us.

“Uhhh…who are you guys?” Xavier asks while a gigantic Lucian is pressing him up against a wall.

“The backup,” Lucas says. “We are basically here to make sure you don’t send Lucian back to hell but actually get rid of him once and for all.”

Those words make Lucian snort, and damn, I got to say he is the ugliest demon I’ve ever seen. He looks like a grayish stone giant with rotten teeth and seeing them makes me grateful Lucas isn’t just a demon, but a quadbrid. He is so much hotter than his enormous demon grandpa…

‘Woah, look at you daring to be bold and speak your mind!‘ Jinx laughs inside of my head.

‘Hush, I’m trying to focus on the enemy here!”

‘Right! Sorry…”

I set my eyes on Lucian, who looks extremely confused. “Look, I have no idea who you are, but this battle…” He trails off with a gasp. “F*cking hell, I know who you are now! You’re my grandson!”

Xavier widens his eyes at that. “Grandson? But that means…” He tilts his head to the side from his spot against the wall. Lucian’s giant hand is pressed into his ribs, but he doesn’t seem to care at all. His sole focus is on Lucas, not Lucian. “You’re my son? Shit. You are! I can feel your aura now. It’s like mine, but…different.”

“That’s because I’m a quadbrid,” Lucas folds his arms over his chest. “Anyway, you can call in the others now. We need them to weaken this guy.”

“Right…” Xavier mutters before yelling, “YOU CAN ALL COME OUT

NOW!”

The other elemental wolves immediately come to Xavier’s aid. Yato, Logan, Christian, and the old psychic wolf are all impressive. It makes me happy to see them here, but the second I see Aron, my blood runs cold.

‘Don’t waste your time on him,‘ Jinx tells me in an attempt to calm me. ‘He hasn’t raped you yet. This is his past self, someone who hasn’t committed. any crime yet.”

“And how do we know that?!‘

…I guess we don’t, but we can’t kill him before he has used his powers on Lucian. We need him.’

Even if I know Jinx is right, I can’t push back this will of mine to f*cking kill the guy. He is helping the others now, and Lucas is yelling orders at me, but I’m too deep inside my head to listen. The only thing I can think about is Aron. I mean, if I kill him here today, then I will never have to suffer in the future.

‘Skylar, no!‘ Jinx is panicking inside me. ‘We can’t kill Aron in the past. I know he is terrible, but what if you mess up everything else by murdering him?!”

Again, I hear her, and I know I should probably listen to her, but I can’t. My sole focus is on Aron, who, together with the others, is busy erasing Lucian from this world.

Christian is using his psychic powers, weaker than mine but still effective, while Yato is using wind magic. Logan is calling forth the water, and Xavier and Lucas have both shape–shifted into dragons to unleash fire and darkness. Everyone is fighting Lucian, even Aron, who is controlling the earth.

“You must help them,‘ Jinx says. ‘Open a portal to send down rocks on Lucian’s head or something. Make that giant demon pay for existing!”

With a decisive nod, I push aside my thoughts of vengeance against Aron for now. My focus should be on Lucian and the calamity that awaits us if
