Leonardo went to New York with a heavy heart. He was worried, his Grandfather was already sold on the idea of him taking a stand and joining in whatever was going on but Leonardo needed time to think about it. He even wanted to talk to Viola about it. She was going to be his wife and his Luna, it was time he started involving her in his decision making process. He had left Loki in Italy to handle the issue with Jack and his werewolves, laying out strict and precise orders on how the werewolves were to be punished and then sent back to their alpha with the scars to show for it. He had been merciful enough, but he didn't tolerate insubordination. On arriving to New York, Leonardo was welcomed by Sylvester, another member of his pack who was at the forefront of handling things and a few other elders in his pack. There was a man next to Sylvester who Leonardo had no idea who he was. He was no werewolf and he was also no member of his pack. He furrowed his eyebrows as he saw the man s
“She’s lost a lot of blood.” The doctor said as he came out of the room where he was in with Lyra. Viola sighed. “What’s going to happen now?” Viola said as she watched the doctor closely and he shrugged. “I don’t know honestly. I’ll try to get her stable and see if we can get some more blood into her system…” “We'll watch her closely for now.” Leonardo sighed. He was seated at the far end of the room, sighing. Viola had called Leonardo instead of calling 911. He had sent people over, as soon as possible while Viola tried to keep Lyra stable. Few minutes after they had arrived and took them away. Viola still held on to the vampire, insisting that Leonardo’s men take them with him despite his numerous protests. The doctor that Leonardo had, had attended to Lyra right away and Leonardo arrived shortly after, straight from a meeting too. Viola felt sorry for disturbing him. He had not started asking her questions, but Viola knew that very soon he’ll start to ask her why she
Leonardo’s condo was situated at Park Avenue. It took them approximately ten minutes to get to his apartment. His condo was at an elegant 90-story building that enriched the city’s famous skyline and showed the breathtaking views of Central Park and the Hudson River visible from the top. Viola was tired and sleepy. She had been skeptical about leaving Lyra but she was sure she was in good hands and she needed to rest after such a long and tiring day. She had dozed off a few times in the car, Leonardo had gently tapped her when they reached his apartment and gently brought her out of the car. “Your place is nice.” She said settling in a sofa and Leonardo nodded. “Thank you. Do you want something to drink?” He asked and she shook her head. “I think I’ll just go straight to bed.” She said as she looked at the sofa. It wasn’t too uncomfortable. She’d be able to sleep in it. “You’re not sleeping there. Come with me. You can sleep on my bed.” He said and Viola nodded. She didn’t
"We have to talk." Leonardo said as Viola appeared at his living room the next day. All groggy eyed tired. She had an uneventful night, her sleep plagued with nightmares and thoughts of Lyra. She would wake up frightfully and then force herself to sleep later on. "Did you have a good sleep?" Leonardo raised his head as he noticed Viola's tired eyes and her eyebags. She looked even more stressed out than she was before and he could tell she must have had a lot on her mind even while she slept. "Can we talk about it later?" "I'm so tired. And I must see Lyra this morning." Leonardo nodded. "it's very important please. I was hoping we could talk about it during breakfast. It's about the Bureau." "what about them?" Viola asked, her interests piqued. Leonardo shrugged. "so much for you to learn. They have requested for you to be part of a meeting." "What meeting? Is this about that woman?" Viola asked. "That woman I hurt? Is this about her?" Leonardo shook his head. "It's no
Viola had promised to meet and talk with Leonardo later, she had more pressing matters that morning. Although the doctor had assured her that Lyra was in much better condition, Viola still rushed to see her that morning. "So when will she wake up?" Viola asked as she peered at Lyra's unconscious body. She had still not woken up after her ordeal and the doctor had assured her that it was normal. Although she strangely felt that something might be off but she didn't push it. He was however a doctor and she wasn't. "And the vampire who bit her? Did he leave?" Viola asked trying to remember the events of the night. The doctor nodded. "Yes. He did." She nodded. "And you're sure she's going to be okay?" The doctor nodded. "Her vitals are okay, she should wake up any moment from now. Please don't fret anymore." Viola nodded. She sat with Lyra for a while, while also taking a few calls. Her grandfather called to ask how everything was going and she sent a text to Lyra's parents who
Viola had woken up. Leonardo made her a cup of coffee. She looked much more better. He had one of his men bring some of her clothes from Lyra's place and they arrived shortly before she woke up. He urged her to change into something more comfortable while he got ready to talk to her about the situation of things. She came back out of his room looking much better. And in better clothing. She dropped her phone on the coffee table, an eager smile on her face. Lyra was finally awake. The doctor had told him that about an hour ago but he didn't want to wake her to tell her. She was back to normal and fortunately, she didn't remember much. All she remembered was that she had been attacked by a strange man in a dark alley. Leonardo even had the chance to speak to her, and he concocted a lie that although her attacker was still on the loose they were going to find him soon. "I just spoke to Lyra. She's doing so much better now!" Viola said as she collapsed on the sofa and Leonardo nodded
One Manhattan West. That was the Bureau's headquarter office. Fitting that it was in New York, one of the most famous and busiest cities in the world. Lyra had made a full recovery and started attending her Cousin's wedding. Viola had to come up with an excuse to not attend, since she was going out with Leonardo. They stepped in the elevator together, accompanied by Sylvester another one of Leonardo's betas. She preferred Sylvester to Loki. He was kinder, gentler and he seemed to be genuinely interested in her. Not like Loki who walked about all day with a scowl on his face and his scowl deepening when he saw her. "Remember. You cannot show the Bureau any sign of weakness or intimidation, they would notice and use it against you." Leonardo repeated and Viola nodded. For some reason, she was not as nervous as she had thought she would be. Maybe because Leonardo and her had spent the night together in each other's arms. Her cheeks warmed at the mere thought of it. He had wante
Shapeshifter. Elf. Vampire. Witch. Faerie. Hunter. Demon. It seemed like every possible group of supernatural that could exist was there. But Viola still felt that the council was inadequate. Grossly inadequate. There were so much more supernaturals she had heard of, like the sea folk, and the druids and the nephilims. Albeit very small minorities but still important. They all had old boring names, something Viola feared would make it harder for their names to stick. But at least she could remember them by what they were. “Is this the Viola who attacked our agent?” The woman was a faerie said and Viola raised her eyebrow. “You mean your agent who provoked me? Or did she not tell you the full story?” The woman scoffed. She turned to Leonardo. “I should think the woman who is to be your Luna Queen should have a much better temperament.” “But then again, the Santangelos are not known for being levelheaded.” She murmured. Viola caught that, but decided to ignore the remark. The
