Chapter Twenty Four
Chapter Twenty Four
Daisy walked into the healing room; I could see the instant alarm in her eyes the moment she spotted Gloria’s corpse.
“Daisy.” I called silently, but her eyes wouldn’t leave the corpse.
“Let me take care of this.” Daemon said to me. I feared for a moment that he would kill her, but he doesn’t; instead he… kisses her. To my surprise, she kisses him back. “You won’t tell anyone about this, would you, Daisy?”
“I won’t, if you don’t want me to.”
“Good girl. Now go get the Alpha, make no mention of this to anyone.”
She nodded before walking away and shutting the door behind her.
“What did you do to her?”
“Nothing, at all.”
“She… likes you?”
“Obsessed is a better word.”
“You shouldn’t use her that way.”
“Riley, she wants to be used.”
Just like Daisy, Thane paused the moment he saw Gloria, dead; of course, he knew how exactly this happened, the puncture marks marring her skin was all the explanation he needed.
“I’m sorry.” I said to him, and those amber eyes trailed down on me.
“Did you kill her?”
“No, of course she didn’t; she is… better than that.” Daemon said. “She is just too good a person to do that, but I, not so much
“You mess with my pack, you mess with me” Thane said, his silent threat chilling.
“Your pack? The same people who want her dead?”
“What are you trying to say?”

Chapter Twenty Four
“She is dead because she tried to harm Riley It was a win–win; I fed Riley her blood to help her heal before I killed her.” Daemon said simply, he walked over the corpse. “She is my priority; anyone that proves to be a threat would be killed; you are not an exemption.”
Thane was barely holding back; I expected him to lunged at Daemon, but he didn’t.
“Thank you.” Thane said to him, and my mouth dropped open.
“I didn’t do it for you.”
Daemon left the both of us alone.
“He killed Gloria.” I said to Thane.
“I would have done the same. How did she get in?”
“She seemed to have been waiting for you to leave; she said ‘she thought you would never leave‘, and I don’t think she was alone on this; they believed killing me was the right thing to do, to get rid of the ‘evil.‘
“I’ll find all that had been involved in this, and I will kill them all,” he promised.
In some way, Daemon and Thane were very much alike.
Thane got rid of the body.
IN THE IN
“You recovered faster than I ever thought was possible.” Daisy said to me, even if we both knew what had happened, she was going to carry on with the act like nothing had happened.
When I was finally alone with Daisy, I thought maybe I should bring it up.
“So you and Daemon are… a thing now?”
“I don’t speak about it.” She said and that sounded a bit cryptic, I arched my brow. I’m sorry, I just don’t want to.”
“It’s fine; I am not against it.”
“You don’t understand; he doesn’t want me sharing things that go on between the both of us, and no, we aren’t a thing. I wish, but he made it clear that we aren’t.”
“Are you okay?” I asked her.
