423 Out Of The Bag

Power crackled in the air and Maxi's clenched fists indicated that she was prepared for war. The enemy, Anya, had been defeated in the first round, but her sore loser mentality prevented her from retreating. Instead, she called for reinforcements. However, Maxi would not allow anyone, especially Anya, to take Isaac away from her or ruin the beautiful relationship she had built with her family. Today, Maxi would deal with Anya.

Anya turned and saw Maxi at that moment. Perhaps it was Maxi's intense gaze, or maybe it was just a trick of the eye, but the blood drained from Anya's face. A shiver traveled down her spine. Anya could have sworn she saw Maxi's eyes flicker black.

When Isaac noticed Maxi's arrival, his expression paled upon witnessing the murderous look on Maxi's face. Her dark Fae side was on the verge of being exposed. Isaac's panic-stricken eyes caught the attention of his mother, who had never seen him look so scared. She sensed that something was amiss.
