Chapter 2: This Coven
MPOV
After a few days of travel, Domenic and I were almost to Alaska. It would be a little bit longer before we reached the Denali Coven's home.
I finished reading the three books. As far as Dom and I could tell, they were accurate. Some things were frightening to think of as accurate. Things like a large pack of werewolves and Edward trying to get himself killed.
Although Dom and I weren't "vegetarians" we understood the Cullen's way of life. It almost made sense that they'd brought a human into their lives. I began to wonder if they had changed dear Bella. With how clumsy she appeared in the books, it amazed me there was a possibility she was alive. And with vampires nonetheless! Only Carlisle would have something as strange as this going on.
"Maia, love, we're almost there. I can smell them." Domenic's sense of smell far surpassed my own. But he didn't have photographic memory like me. It made my life easier because I couldn't keep a library with me; I had to keep in my head. Well, apart from the mysterious books in Dom's pack. Those were going to Carlisle.
As we approached the Denali Coven's home I saw Tanya. We'd only met once, but with vampire memory we'd never be strangers.
I spoke first. "We're sorry to drop in unannounced, but it's extremely important. We promise to not hunt in your area." I could see that she heard the urgency in my tone.
"That's agreeable. What's brings you and Domenic here?" By now Kate had come out of the house to join in.
"Hi, Maia and Dom!" Kate's unmistakable energy almost felt tangible.
"Kate, it's not polite to interrupt," Tanya chided.
"It's fine. She's just happy to see us." Domenic was always forgiving. I couldn't grasp his reasoning, but accepted it anyway.
"You were saying…" Tanya prompted me.
"We need to know where the Cullens are." Tanya raised an eyebrow at my request. "We fear that they might be exposed. Your Coven too." I must've sounded crazy.
"How?" Kate looked serious. A vampire's entire existence rested solely on blending in and the Denali Coven tried harder than most.
"Maia found some books. They're about you, the Cullens, and a girl named Bella. The Volturi are even in them. We've been exposed and apparently we have been for years." Dom's expression showed his concern. It was this concern that made me want to be his mate.
We all stared at each other for a long while.
"Let's see these books then." Tanya held her hands out while Domenic took the books out of his pack.
"Just a precaution, there's one more book. The final installment is due out soon," I warned.
Tanya and Kate were frantically flipping the pages. Kate gasped in shock when she found her coven mentioned.
"It's all true…" Tanya's eyes were still trained on the pages, but it was clear she didn't need to see anymore. "We keep in fairly close contact with the Cullens. This all happened."
"Where are they?" I pressed.
"New Hampshire at Dartmouth College."
"Thank you. We have to head out, but we need the books. They need to see them." Dom almost sounded impatient. Our suspicions were very well confirmed. There was no denying it.
Tanya handed Dom the books and we took off. We didn't have a car or money for plane tickets. We'd just have to cut through Canada. It would be a few days and hopefully we'd make it in time. There was a bit of a time crunch: August 2nd at 12:01 am. We had to get out of this mess by then. If humans found out vampires existed, then they'd start thinking there were witches and wizards on brooms.
That's three chapters in one day. You can't have anymore today!!
