Chapter 2 Council meeting
Zoey
The American high council had gone their separate ways in order for America to find peace again. The red fledglings appearing all over the continent had people worried but with a council member visiting and explaining how things are now people started to calm down again. I knew their visits were not done yet but with this wolf suddenly turning up I could not do anything else but call them back to Tulsa. They all understood the necessity of coming back. One after the other returned and reported on their visits to the other Houses.
I called an official meeting as soon as they had all returned. I tried to explain everything as well as I could.
"Wolves? Seriously? Our world was already weird enough as it was with vampyres, Raven mockers, immortals and the white and black bull." Aphrodite exclaimed. It did not happen often but I absolutely agreed with Aphrodite. Our world already had enough supernatural creatures.
"Isn't it awesome that there are people who can shift into wolves? I mean hello… wolves!" Stevie-Rae, always the optimist. I do think that the fact that her affinity is with Earth and wolves are very close to nature also helps with her optimism. It's nice that at least someone likes the idea of shapeshifter wolves being added to the list of what-makes-this-world-a-weird-place.
"No, pumpkin, it's not awesome." Aphrodite retorted. Always the sunshine of our group. I know she keeps things real but sometimes she could do a little less bitchy. At least she's our bitch and doesn't make my life into a living hell anymore. Though the world seems to have taken it upon itself to make sure it still happens.
"So…" Darius started. "We're just going to that camp of theirs and assume they have the world's best interest at hand?" Darius was right to question them. I did too.
"I know it's all confusing and I don't know why those wolves kept themselves a secret but they show up when we need them so for now we just have to trust that they don't have another agenda. I doubt they have, the girl we met was very kind. She reminded me of Thanatos. They all nodded and put their hands over their hearts in honor of our fallen priestess of the dead.
"We have to trust them and as soon as they give us any reason not to we will make sure they don't do anything that could harm you guys." Stark said speaking for all the warriors gathered. Darius and Rephaim nodded at his comment. Those wolves wouldn't know what hit them if it came to it.
"I have an address where we can park our cars and then we have to make our way through the rest of the woods on foot. Rysen promised she or another wolf would be at that address to guide us. All I can say is wear something comfortable because I have no idea how long we have to walk. Anyone any questions that I might be able to answer?" No one had questions so the council was dismissed. We would go to those wolves and we had no idea what to expect. I just hoped their alpha was as nice as Rysen.
