Yes, another chapter. How is it that I always end up getting slapped by inspiration at midnight until 3 am? Why can I not write at a normal time…
Anyways here is another chapter, a shorter one then the last unfortunately, but hey, I'm four chapters behind and this one has to be shorter anyway because of the plot.
Well, except for a few characters, I've introduced everyone I need for the plot…except Bran but that comes much later…What? I happen to like Bran sort of…and I really don't like Marsilia…though she's fun to write about…
"Ummm…" Warren said awkwardly aware that everyone in the house was probably listening in. He added a sarcastic 'thank you' to Ben in his head. "Well, when Jesse took her time getting back from her walk with Mercy we got worried and sent some wolves to make sure they were alright. When we followed their trail it suddenly seemed to disappear."
Adam tensed up, worried for his daughter but other than that not a move was made. "And…?"
"We split up to search the area, thinking to catch the trail nearby but there was nothing," Warren continued, "a few moments ago Jesse called and said she was fine. Mercy is with her…and so is Stefan."
Adam relaxed, if Mercy is with her and Stefan then they probably are alright, he thought. The Alpha looked out at his wolf, there was more. He waited patiently for Warren to finish.
"The vampires are making threats again; apparently that is why we couldn't find the trail. At least that's Stefan's guess. He said some vampire named Wulfe was the cause, and somehow one of our wolves is MIA. The pack ties say he's alive but there's no way to find where he is being held. My guess is that this Wulfe has something to do with it." Warren stood in front of his suddenly very pissed off Alpha hoping that Adam could keep his temper.
"I'm sure there's a good reason Warren is avoiding answering your question," Stefan said trying to be logical so neither of them would do something stupid. "But I don't that any reason would be a good enough one this time since it puts you in unnecessary danger.
"You're a good man Stefan. " Mercy said, "though they probably withheld the information simply because they want to 'protect' us. As if we aren't perfectly capable of protecting ourselves," Mercy grumbled.
"I'm not 'good', not even a 'man'," Stefan said. "Sometimes I wonder if you don't deceive yourself on purpose. Try to forget what I am or what I am capable of and trust me when I say you do not know what I am capable of."
Mercy glared at him, "you are a good man if I sayso Stefan. No, I don't know what you're capable of since you seem determined t shelter me from that particular aspect of yourself. For which I am mostly thankful for, but I have not forgotten what you are, vampire."
Both Mercy and Stefan turned their head at the sound of surprise; they had forgotten Rayvn was even there. The only thing Mercy could think of was 'oops'.
"You didn't know" Jesse stated.
