The Pack's Dragon Meguitte Takes Control
Havermouth, Present Time The river was noticeably lower than when she had seen it last, Meguitte noted numbly to herself as Tony took them along a parallel road. Where the water had receded there was a crust of rubbish and debris left behind, amongst which she picked out the carcasses of sheep, wildlife and probably domesticated pets, their species unable to be identified in a quick glance from a car window, just the impression of soggy fur. “Are you looking like I am, making sure that the dead creatures are actually dead?” Connery asked her quietly as she leaned over him in order to look out of the window. “Can you imagine being overrun by small, sharply teethed zombie rodents?” She shuddered. “Let’s not even imagine it,” she told him. He took her hand and held it between his on his lap. “How are you doing, Meguitte?” “I think I’m in shock,” she slid back into the seat and leaned against him. He released her hand in order to put his arm around her shoulder, drawing her towards hi

Havermouth, Present Time“Where is August Mason?” Meguitte asked as they left the bedroom.“Below, where Jules’ body is,” Tony told her.“Hmm. Convenient,” she stopped by the kitchen and searched through the spice rack. “Do you have a pestle and mortar?”“Here,” Connery retrieved it from a cupboard and set it before her. “It’s clean, I washed it after using it.”“Thank you,” she smiled up at him tightly, her mind on her task and her hands already combining spices and herbs into the bowl and grinding them into dust.“An interesting choice of components,” Connery commented mildly after inspecting the little jars. “Do you have any absinthe?” He asked Tony.Meguitte’s grin up at him was spontaneous and bright. Of course, Connery would know what she was mixing and what other ingredients would be required.“I do,” Fatima responded, eager to have a task. “I’ll go get it.” She hurried out of the room.“What is this for?” Tony asked warily from the other side of the kitchen bench. He was not a
The Pack's Dragon A Nice Walk Through Rideten
Rideten, Present TimeIt was safer to walk according to Phillip’s contact, and so they set off down the pretty Rideten streets with their heritage buildings shaded beneath ancient trees. Talen had probably seen them grow from saplings, Aislen thought to herself.With her mates in agreement that Talen, Cameron, and Heath would follow, and Rhett would go with her, Aislen should have been able to focus on the problem ahead of her rather than fretting over all the egos of her menfolk. She tried to do so, but the nagging resentment remained.She hadn’t missed that Talen and Heath had been working out the future together, including her future, without consulting her. She had only caught the tail end of the conversation, but it had sounded like they’d reached an agreement on how it would be between them, and that pissed her off more than a bit.The Triquetra had been arseholes to her in the past, but she’d honestly thought they’d worked that out, and everyone would settle in and be happy wit
The Pack's Dragon Victor of the Galgulit HaLevana
Rideten, Present TimeTheir movements echoed hollowly round rooms that were bare of furniture. The house was in mid-renovation from the way the walls and floors had been stripped, light fittings hung, and boards or plastic covered many windows.“Dwayne,” Phillip had greeted their guide and turned now to them. “You, of course, know Stella, and my son Rhett. This is Aislen Carter, the Havermouth Triquetra’s mate.”“Hi,” from the way Rhett spoke, he had no idea who Dwayne was.“This is one of the backup entries,” Dwayne told them. “The Van Helsings having taken over the main facility. We’ll go down to the bunker now.”“You mean the church?” Aislen asked, shocked.“It came up for sale a while ago,” Dwayne snorted in amusement. “It seemed appropriate that we build our base under something that they would see as sacred. And the renovations were a good cover for building the bunker. The location however attracted their attention when they moved into Rideten, and they took control of the surf
The Pack's Dragon Public Perception
Rideten, Present Time“It’s a matter of public perception,” Victor continued. “We cannot be seen attacking a peaceful population that is simply afraid of us and pursuing legal steps to protect themselves against us. We need to respond in kind. We have some very good politicians and lawyers working on representing our interests.”“They are killing and torturing us. We are responding in kind in attacking the Van Helsings occupation. Tabitha Marie has been reporting on what has happened in Havermouth and the Van Helsing torture of our people, surely that is justification enough,” Aislen said immediately, but her tone lacked confidence as the thoughts of the werewolves in the room were on how to dispute what she was saying, and how she was wrong, and they were so loud and certain that an edge of self-doubt wormed itself into her heart.“We have seen Tabitha’s reports on the internet,” Victor’s tone was indulgently patient as if he were speaking with a child. “However, they’re not being pi
The Pack's Dragon Leaving the Bunker
Rideten, Present TimeChoosing the church as the base for the bunker had many disadvantages Aislen learned as Victor and his council went on to discuss how to mobilize their army without exposing their location to the Van Helsings above. The peaceful occupation of Rideten meant that their vehicles would immediately attract attention and panic.It was decided that teams of soldiers would exit through the various backup locations, such as the house that they had brought Aislen, Rhett, Phillip, and Stella through, and obtain their vehicles before making their way in stealth to Trayrock. Once in position within the town, they would contact the local werewolf pack and army, and co-ordinate a fast and hard attack aimed at driving the Van Helsings out.Aislen and her mates, would return first to Havermouth, and then travel to Trayrock in the wake of the battle with the reporters.“If they’re ignoring Tabitha Marie and putting it forward as a hoax, how are we going to get them to come with us
The Pack's Dragon Talen Learns About Harry and Jules
Rideten, Present TimeWalking through the Van Helsings with Heath and Cameron whilst keeping an eye on Rhett and Morgana as they entered the house behind Phillip and Stella had Talen’s nerves on edge. What the fuck were the fool werewolves playing at inviting his mates to a meeting directly across the road from a Van Helsing headquarters? That people often overlooked that which was directly under their noses was a sound theory, but this was taking it too far.They must have experienced one of those moments of bad luck, he decided, and built their bunker, only to have the Van Helsings move into the same neighbourhood. It would cause issues with Morgana’s hopes of using the Rideten army to rally the other branches if mobilizing the army would expose the werewolves’ stronghold.However, that was a problem for the future, and he had more immediate demands for his attention. He led his mates around the block until they reached the house directly behind the one into which Morgana and Rhett
The Pack's Dragon The Hand
Havermouth, Present TimeMeguitte set the phone down. It had not been an easy call to make. She knew that the weight of guilt on Talen’s shoulders would be heavy, and he had already been so weary. He had not said whether he would tell Cameron or not. She had not asked the question knowing that he probably had not decided for himself, though his question about the security of Havermouth made it clear that he had understood what she was suggesting.She looked down at the man before her and stroked his hair back from his face tenderly. Such a handsome man, she thought. Harry’s blood had been reversing the effects of age, and Jules Edison looked no older than his son, his thick ash-brown hair free of silver and his skin uncreased by time and exposure.“I am sorry that your eternity with Harry was cut short,” she told Jules softly.“What did Talen say?” Connery entered the room and placed his hands on her shoulders, the contrast of the heat of his palms to the chill of the air divine. “Ah,
