Both Tala and Ray found themselves in a limousine for the first time, they sat in awe over its length and the ample seating space inside.
Raphael and Ray sat across from each other in front, Duke, Jane and Asena in the far back.Tala felt the tension in the air next to Ray, she sensed a bad omen on the horizon, her only wish was it would end, not too badly.Raphael had his phone out "Nel, send message to all the leaders, meeting tonight at the conference hall in New York" he closed the line and threw the phone on the seat next to him "What happened?""Where should I start?" Ray answered."Start with why you decided to marry a wolf!?"Tala flinched."At first I didn't know she was one""That is a useless excuse!"Ray showed him the ring of Sol "This dampens my senses""Then after you realised she's a wolf!? Why not turn around!?""It was inevitable, I fell for her"Raphael rubbed his face "Then your father?""A coup aga"Sparked your interest I see? Are you that lovestruck!?" Raphael asked."Of course! I'd do anything for her!""Even... Be a test subject?""You, you already have a way don't you?""Its still in it's test phases""How does it work?""Basically our bodies have hearts Ray, they just don't beat, have you noticed?""I ripped the hearts of many vampires out, they where obviously cold""Then what's stopping us from figuring out a way to make it beat?""Will that take the vampire out of us? Will that finally get that thirst for blood out our mouths?""I'm not sure" Raphael sat back "But you can help me test it""How then? Why not test it on any other vampire?""Because one it's illegal, just like humans don't experiment on other humans, we follow the same law, but you can't die from just anything right? If the serum doesn't work you'll survive...""You have tested it on a vampire before haven't you?""We did, but that one
Asena got the bottle and sat down with it, even so she still poured a glass full "I don't remember the last time I got drunk"Tala saw the smile on her face, she clearly had not a worry in the world, it must be nice to be high alpha. She looked down at the glass of whisky, Tala smelled everything, the alcohol, the barley, even the wood of the keg it matured in, panic stricken she grabbed the glass and downed the lot, but that made her cough violently."Slow down pup!" Asena said laughing.Tala still coughed unable to speak, but Asena took the glass from her and poured another, Tala frowned through teared eyes."You want to get slaughtered, the worst is yet to come""What can be...*cough* what can be worse than death!?""Your little dream world, your happiness, the promises, the love, all shattered into thousands of pieces"Tala suddenly stood up and paced up and down, she didn't like the way Asena said that, even the semi cheerful expression on her
17 Years ago...The large man gave a deep laugh, Claire was at this point so fed up with that voice she'd rather just drive the silver stake through her own heart, but she had to finish it here, the Fey queen had her people build this tomb, and she being the last one standing, couldn't let the efforts of everyone who fell here be in vain.It was the only way Claire could stop someone who can't die, stabbing him in his heart only turns him into a corpse, but take the stake out he awakens into a mummified state, blood is then needed to restore his strength but for Vlad Dracul, the Lord of all vampires, that is not a hard feat.Then the four rings forged by the witch Elaine, to be carried by the two kings of vampires. They use the strength in their stones to hide this tomb from everyone, the two rings of Sol covers it in the sun, the two rings of Luna, blankets it in the dark, The Luna rings also there to help a twin venom force a wolf, but no more twin bloods remain,
Skyler grabbed her magnefying glass again and was over the map, the first thing she saw was the pyramids, if looked at from the very top the pyramid was a square shape, but take away the left and right triangle, the top and bottom would be in the shape of an hourglass... Was this what the contact talked about? Or was it just false hope!?She scanned the dessert again and sure enough, very faintly she found another hourglass shape, she looked at it very closely, the quality of the photo was good enough to allow her to conclude that this wasn't a pixel misform of the dunes, there was something there, just like the pyramids she saw a clear indication of human construction, not natural formation.Skyler's eyes grew, this is it! It's another tomb! Right there! She placed the magnefying glass down right on top of it and grabbed the photo Frank gave her, but matching the two she saw no ruins there at all, the date on the photo showed that the satellite took this photo in th
"Miss..."Skyler groaned, slowly opening her eyes."Miss Stan...er"Her vision blurred, but she saw the two shapes in front of her, instinctively she backed away but hit a wall with the back of her head."What the fuck!?" She yelled and instead of feeling the pain in her head, she grabbed her neck, and sure enough she felt that pain as well, the two prick wounds healed yes, but soft patches of skin confirmed it."Meekah has alot of self control miss Stander, if I bit you I would have drained you dry""Are you for real!? Does this mean I'll become a vampire!?""No, only when our blood mixes with yours do you turn, but if you want to stay human, you will take us to that tomb"Skyler swallowed still rubbing the two marks on her neck."We can turn you of course, it would mean keeping a closer eye on you, bitten by a vampire means you become enslaved forever, so you have no free will. But we'll keep you human miss Stander, vampires canno
Claire fell on her bed, the heat was unbearable, even a cold beer only did that much to cool her down. Plans ran through her head, as long as there are vampires everywhere her movement are also limited, sure she can pick one or two off here and there, but by now they all know of Skyler, Claire keeps their communication under close eye.She looked over to her almanac, there is a full moon tonight, its the one night she can beat them at everything they throw, at the cost of being discovered, unlike vampires she doesn't necessarily blend in as a werewolf.The only thing Claire thinks she can do is save Skyler tonight, but she needed close contacts to help her disappear, its worth a shot, for better or worse she had to get Skyler away from those two, otherwise she'll have bigger problems to deal with if she doesn't.Claire sat up and took her phone, dialled a number then placed it on speaker."Jason hello""Hey Jason it's Claire""Claire! I take it yo
In the large room there was a round table, for obvious respective reasons, enough to hold more that twenty seats, though the room was wide the tension made it feel small.Raphael sat down on one chair, Ray next to him, on the complete opposite side Asena had her seat, but Tala had to remain standing, she was not a leader."They will start arriving shortly, I suggest no greetings to those you know, no speaking out of terms" Raphael said looking at those with him.Duke, Jane and Leopold stood behind Raphael against a wall, Ray could clearly see they where there to protect him.The first to arrive was Lilith, she gave the room a scan but upon seeing the familiar faces she just blinked and headed over, taking a seat next to Raphael.Farah arrived after, her seat next to Asena. Tala could see the pattern here, wolves one side, vampires on the other, still divided even if they are willing to be in the same room together.She felt bubbles in her stomach when s
Asena smiled "Yes, I am high alpha now""How?""Its hard to explain to a vampire, say it like this I've lived long enough, us wolves have enemies on all sides right? We are mindless beasts under the moon""Age? You say live long enough and high alpha might be achieved?""In a manner of speaking, I also found a new respect for the wolf and the moon, you'd be surprised that looking at the moon is one thing, but chasing it is a different story""Explain?""Try basking in moonlight for a week, it has to be that, I found a way to it"The entire room wasn't following her."I ran, a werewolf is faster than you might think, run from one side of the planet to another, where you can of course, and insure you follow the moon""You lie" Fitzgerald said."Yes, I'm sorry, it's a lie""How dare you!?" Raphael said."There are loads of secrets you vampires keep from us as well Raphael, why should I share my ultimate achievement with you?"
