“Does this mean you’ve officially joined the Society?” His golden eyes hold fire, but a very different fire from what they held moments ago.

“Not yet.” I hold my chin up and glare at him. “Not until tomorrow night. But, I guess like a lot of things lately, my magic has a will of its own.”

“So, you’re committed to this path? No turning back?”

“I gave up my magic once,” I growl. “And I’m never giving it up again. Not for you. Not for anyone.”

He looks angry enough to punch the wall. “Well, then, we have nothing further to discuss.” He turns and starts to stalk off.

“What the fuck, Xander!” I try to yank my pants back up, which doesn’t cover much since they’re torn, and storm after him. I’m yelling now. “What is your deal? Why do you hate the Society so much? It seems pretty bigoted if you ask me.”

He spins, and the look in his eyes makes my heart stop. “The Raven Society killed my father. And I swore an oath then to do everything in my power to take it down.”

Shock pulses over me. I stand there, speechless, as Xander strides from my room, rage fuming off of him.
