I took a step back,at my sides I had no idea what to expect from any of them, even Daemon at this point Horror churned in my stomach

Quincy ide like a linebacker, and the look in his eyes sent an icy whirl of wind over y balled low inHis eyesfeatures stark Quincy’s s back, I knocked his ar a rush of static over my skin

The smile slipped off Quincy’s face as his eyes narrowed

"What is this about?" Daemon asked

"I’m curious," said Rolland, his voice alaze flickered over to Daeaze bounced between Daemon and the Luxen There was a moment when Daemon didn’t move as he stared at Rolland, and then he pivoted on his heel I locked up, throat dry, as he stalked toward us

He cut Quincy a dangerous look as he stepped around me Theht I’d throw up Like literally hurl all over the s into Dae ers, but I couldn’t shy away Daemon was an unmovable wall

Daemon stiffened behind me as Quincy lowered his head so that ere eye level I never thought I’d ever be in this situation, that instead of Dae soet all up in my face Not since the day at the lake, the first time he’d opened up to me and told me about his brother

"She feels different," Quincy announced, his hands sliding down my neck to whereso in theaze flickering up to Dae, tapered fingers circled ry"

"Really?" Daemon’s hands flexed around my arms "Remember what I told you before? That statement still stands"

"Is that so?" Quincy hesitated, and then he placed his hand above my chest, the same place I’d seen the Luxen touch in the super my back, and I wasn’t sure if it was fro so badly The Luxen’s brows knitted in concentration, and then he glanced at Rolland

"Nothing," he said "I cannot assi My God, I’d seen what had happened to the humans after their DNA had been assimilated at a rapid clip He would’ve killed me! And Daeroin Anger burned its way through et free, because I needed space, but his grip tightened as furious tears stungdevelopment," Rolland commented "What else can you two do? We know that if one dies, the other does She obviously has access to the Source Is there anything else?"

"She won’t get sick Like us" Daemon’s words were short, to the point "And she’s fast and strong"

I sucked in a sharp breath as the blister of soly, of betrayal, curled around my heart

"Remarkable" Rolland clapped his hands as if we’d perfor there in front of hi wholly unimpressed

"Yes," Daemon answered, and my eyes widened, but I schooled ree Both of them had just blatantly lied by omission There was more When he was in his true form, Daemon and I could communicate the way he did with other Luxen I didn’t knohat to think about that, but hope sparked deep inat the wall as if there was so here? There was lory as Quincy, asn’t even looking atDaeht on h ust Every part ofacross the wood floor and bu into an empty leather chair Startled, I lifted th of matted hair that had fallen across my face

The two Luxen were locked in an epic stare-down, and across fro at the wall, but was focused on her brother It was so quiet in the room that you could hear a fly hiccup

And then Daemon exploded like a bottle rocket

{ Daemon }

Wrath tasted like a pool of blood in the back of my mouth, and I was unable to see or think past it There were a lot of things I could deal with, that I could forceher like that not only crossed the line, it blew a freaking hole in it

Shifting into my true form, I felt the immediate bombard in a vicious cyclone, butQuincy the second before he could shift, I flung him into the far wall, but this time with a hell of a lot more effort than when I found him in her room
