Chapter 11: Lucy's POV:
"Wolf pack? As in Zane's Pack?" I said panicking. Zane was the leader of our families werewolf pack. There was an equal amount of werewolves and vampires however, there wasn't and still isn't an equal amount of witches to look after the two species individually so the council of Witches made it a rule that for every witch family there was a vampire family and a werewolf family or pack. I dropped my materials and rushed over to Ivan. "Zane! Zane is he okay? Well is he? Ivy why aren't you answering my questions!" I yelled panicking.
"Calm down, Lucy! He's alright!" Ivan said placing his hands on my shoulder.
"Who's Zane? Lucy?" Nicholas said irritated. Oh he is so hot when he gets like this.
To answer his questions I walked over to him, sat on his lap and kissed him. The kiss was like any other kiss that we shared. It started off gentle and sweet, immediately becoming hot and blissful. My arms slid up and around his neck, his arms sliding around my waist. His lips were so tender against mine. He kissed me so sweetly. Nicholas left hand slid up under my shirt towards my bra. I couldn't believe he doing this here, in front of everyone. God was he sexy! He pulled me closer to him and positioned me so that my legs were wrapped around his waist. I couldn't help the moan that escaped my lips. He was just so sexy! By now his shirt was off and my hands were exploring his broad muscular chest. For a vampire that's supposed to be cold, he was definitely giving off some serious body heat.
Nicholas was about to take my shirt off when a set of hands grabbed me by my shirt's collar and hauled me off of his lap. Ivan pushed me into his back and gave me a stern look meanwhile Nigel Drake was giving his grandson a serious talking to. Oh my gosh, this is totally embarrassing!
"Ivy! What the hell!" I was answered by a furious look from both him and Nigel Drake.
"Lucy! What in the…." Ivan was interrupted by a knock at the door. Geoffrey got up and answered it, letting in Constantine. Oh how I hate that vamp! He took Solange away from Kieran. I would just kill to take a stake and run it right through his fugly little….
"What're you doing here?" Nicholas roared. "Get out!"
"Now, now, you don't need to be so angry. I just stopped by to take Solange out for a little hunting." Constantine said walking up towards Solange.
"We don't think so!" All seven brothers stepped in front of Solange blocking his way.
"Maybe you should leave Constantine" Liam said getting up from where he was seating.
"All I want is Solange. We had booked to go hunting today." I guess he stepped a little too closer because at that moment Liam and Sebastian sprang for him, knocking him down. Unfortunately, they didn't see the stake in his right hand. However, before he could stake Liam, Nigel grabbed them by their shirts and pulled them off of Constantine. Still with his hands on their backs, Nigel kicked Constantine in the chest making him go flying into the wall.
"Get out NOW!" Liam yelled.
"Make me!" Constantine said laughing.
"My pleasure" Ivan took the Medallion and started speaking in Latin. In no longer than I second, Constantine felt pain everywhere. His skin started to turn bright red, and smoke began to rise from his flesh. Everyone turned towards Ivan shell shocked. He was burning Constantine alive. "Leave the Drake compound now! OR I WILL SET YOU ON FIRE!"
"Arghh!" He started to charge my brother. Big mistake stupid Vampire! I jumped in his way, ignoring the objections from Ivan.
I placed my hands out in front of me, closing my eyes and chanted the words of the Burning spell. Once I opened my eyes, everyone was looking at me completely horrifies; Quinn was grinning with excitement (though I don't know why) and Ivan was smiling at me proudly. "What?" and to answer my question, they all pointed to the pile of burnt ash sitting on the floor against the wall. I stared at the once was vampire with wide eyes. I did that? To a vampire? Son of a….
"Lucy?! What did you do?" Solange screamed, cutting off my vulgar thinking. She ran straight for the 'what was Constantine' and broke down sobbing.
"What? Are you telling me that you wanted me to keep him alive after he tried killing your brother, father, grandfather and my brother? Seriously Solange, what's wrong with you?"
"I HATE YOU!" She yelled with tears in her eyes and stormed upstairs, slamming her room door in emphasis.
"YA WELL YOU'LL GET OVER IT! AND YOUR WELCOME!" I yelled back.
"YOU'RE NOT FORGIVEN!"
Before I could respond to her tantrum, Ivan put his hand over my mouth silencing me. "My apologies for my baby sister. She doesn't quite… have control on her gifts yet" he said to Liam Drake. "And again I apologize for her incompetent manners towards your daughter. I will put her in hand as soon as we leave your home." And with that he took me by the elbow and led me outside, into his SUV. We drove in silence towards the academy however; to my surprise we didn't leave the vehicle. We had just stopped to pick up Dimitri and were now heading to the location of where the werewolf was killed.
When we arrived at the scene, the werewolf's body was still there as so were his fellow pack members and Zane. While Ivan and Dimitri went to look at the body I ventured over to the pack to see how they were doing. "Hey guys, good news!" they all looked over to me with sorrow filled eyes. Sasha, Zane's wife was crying in his shoulder carrying her baby son Ben. She slowly looked up, not leaving Zane's shoulder and looked me in the eyes. I could tell she hadn't stopped crying since they found his body which was forty-eight hours ago. Poor woman, she never gets a break these days. Being the wife of the werewolf pack leader isn't as it's quite up to being. It's a lot of work. I wish I could do something to help her and the rest of them.
"Well…What's the good news?" Charlie the second in command asked.
"We found the murderer and I killed him" I stated.
"You killed someone?" at that they all started laughing. "Sorry Luce but that's just hilarious! We needed a good laugh"
"Good one Luce! Whoever told you that you weren't a comedian?" Brandon said.
"That's not funny guys. I did kill him!" Dum werewolves!
"Sure!" they all said in unison.
Even Ben laughed at that statement. I didn't know if he knew what was happening or it was just instinct for babies to laugh but still, not funny. That's one thing I will always love about our local wolf pack. Even in the hardest times, they know when to lighten up the mood.
"Don't celebrate too soon boys. We still need to bring him into the laboratory where Uncle Henry will see what Cause of Death (COD) was."
WELL! What did you guys think! Is Constantine really dead? Will Solange stay mad at Lucy forever? What about the dead Werewolf's body? What do you think will be the COD? Stay tuned for the next chapter. But before that how about we play a little competition. For every few chapters I will put a quote up from one of the Drake Chronicle books and you must tell me either in your review or PM me for who said the quote, what book it was from, what chapter, and page #. You have until Sept/2/12! Here is this chapter's quote:
"Mom was vicious when cornered, but dad had a way about him, like a snake hypnotizing his supper."
