Alpha Maximus The Last Lycan novel Chapter 55

Blood trickles from the wound. Hope lunges at him, biting into his neck with all her strength, almost ripping his whole head off ferociously. Alpha Cal drops dead.

We shift back into human form. Hope runs over to me and places her hands over my neck as I begin to lose consciousness.

"Maximus! Don't you fall asleep! You need to stay with me!" she cries.

Her hands glow, and her eyes glimmer with silver.

The large wound on my neck slowly closes over.

Hope wraps her arms around me, "Maximus!" she says, and helps me to sit up.

The warriors in the room are all dead, but new ones enter and bow down around us as their new Alpha and Luna.

"Unchain him!" Hope orders, pointing to her father.

He is in shock and speechless at witnessing Hope healing Maximus.

"You shifted into a wolf, and you were able to heal?" Levi says, stunned.

"Yes, Papa, I was blessed with the best of both you and mother," she says to him, smiling.

As the chains drop from his wrists, he wraps his arms around Hope and hugs her tight.

"My daughter, my beautiful, sweet daughter. You don't know how much it means to me knowing you're alive!" he cries.

He suddenly collapses to the ground.

"Take him to the pack doctor and get him some food, and if any of you harm my father, I will personally rip your head off just as I did with your Alpha Cal!" Hope warns the warriors.

Nathan and Alex help me sit at a table where food has been brought to us.

"Eat. You need to regain your strength," Hope says, passing me a plate of food. Hope is a true Luna. She immediately took control ordering the guards and warriors to bury the dead and to release any other prisoners. Then ordered the warriors to remove all of Alpha Cal's belongings from the packhouse and burn the items with his body. Afterwards, she was in the kitchen, telling the pack members to make a great banquet to celebrate her father's freedom. I was proud of her and greatly admired watching her lead the pack members and warriors.

We're escorted to a large bedroom, "I can't believe we did it, we killed him, and my father is now free," Hope says as she leans down and kisses me passionately.
