The ballroom was breathtaking.

Massive crystal chandeliers hung from the towering ceilings, bathing the entire room in warm golden light. Gothic archways curved along each side of the hall, opening into different parts of the castle. The space alone was large enough to swallow the entire beta quarters whole.

Zara slowed to a stop just to take it all in.

She had never seen anything like this before.

Her eyes sparkled with barely concealed excitement as she admired every corner of the room. Kael

    The western tower had disappeared, this was not getting any better. Nobody said anything for a few seconds. The eastern tower had vanished only a few hours ago now another one was gone. What was really going on?Zara felt a knot tighten in her stomach, beside her, Kael looked really calm which was not a good sign at all. Selene rubbed a hand over her face and sighed."We need to go.""Go where?" Rynese asked looking worried."The council chamber, it is a place where people make decisions that are terrible and they call it leadership... Mtcheww." She sighed again.Rynese nodded thoughtfully.* * * * * * The council chamber was beneath the city, the further down they went, the colder it became.Ancient stone corridors were everywhere around them. They used torches to find their way through, this place was really old.It looked like something that had existed long before the people currently occupying it. Zara didn't like this place, her wolf didn't like it either.The farther they de

    Nobody laughed about the information the guard has just given, it was meant to be funny because it didn't seem like it had actually happened but still, a small part of Zara had hoped the guard would suddenly admit he'd made a mistake or maybe he'd been tired or panicking. Just something you know, or maybe he lost his way.Instead, the young vampire looked like he was about to be sick."The entire tower?" Selene asked.Her voice was calm for the chaos that the guard was panicking about or perhaps she was trying not to look like she was actually panicking."Yes." The guard swallowed."It was there during the patrol change.""And then, what happened?""It just mysteriously disappeared."Rynese blinked."I'm sorry." He said raising a hand."We're totally not accepting that answer, how do you mean a building disappeared, like a whole building?"Nobody looked at him, he looked offended because why the hell were they ignoring him.Valkyrie turned to him."We heard you, okay?""Then why is no

    For a long moment, nobody moved. They just stood there trying to process everything that had been going on, something was wrong.Rynese was the first one to recover or at least try to."What," he said slowly, "was that?"Nobody answered him."Fantastic."He looked around at everyone."Not a single answer. Again."Valkyrie was staring at the patch of ground where the hooded figure had stood, the snow there was still black and dirty, it looked burned.She walked on it carefully and immediately stood again."No.""What?" Zara asked staring at her.Valkyrie's face had gone pale."There's no scent and that's strange."The words settled heavily in them, how the hell was there no scent. Kael frowned a bit."What do you mean no scent?""I mean exactly what I just said, there's no scent." She pointed toward the dark patch."Nothing was standing there, we all saw it.""I know.""No scent at all?" Rynese asked.Valkyrie shook her head."Not even a vampire, a wolf or even a human."Nobody seemed

    Nobody spoke for several seconds, maybe they didn't know what to say.A countdown to what exactly? This wasn't helping Zara folded her arms."A countdown to what?" She asked.Selene's expression immediately changed which wasn't encouraging.Around them, the fringe vampires had gone completely quiet, they looked uncomfortable and confused as hell. You could tell from the expression on their faces as if this conversation was not what they expected.Zara was confused, she looked confused too. It was just strange to her that these fringe vampires were confused as her too.Nobody in her group looked like they knew anything and that was not good at all. Especially Rynese."What exactly is awakening?" he asked looking as confused as ever.Selene looked at him then she looked away almost immediately, then she looked back at him."That's a difficult question." She said.Rynese groaned a bit. What exactly was difficult here."No. It isn't. It's actually a very simple question." He said staring

    For a moment, nobody spoke, everywhere became quiet for a while. The Belmar's name rang in the air for like minutes, the weight of the name was so much that the lead Vampire didn't stop smiling, he seemed to be enjoying the silence. This was the name from the map they saw and those letters, this name has been a hell of torture to Zara, she couldn't understand why they wanted her. This Most especially, Zara was spite that the lead vampire was still smiling. His smile widened."You look surprised.""Of course, who wouldn't be surprised, we all thought they were supposed to be dead," Rynese said."I heard that."The vampire said , he sounded amused like it was normal for an entire bloodline to just re-generate like some sort of magic.Zara didn't like him, she never did. Zara felt like just hitting him on the face and smashing that smile off his face. Her wolf was even more angrier.The vampire's gaze shifted to her."You should be more careful."Her eyes narrowed to him immediately.

    For a long time, nobody moved. The sound of the horn just continued echoing through the mountains.Then it became closer and closer and closer.... The sound rolled through the damaged outspot.Zara didn't like the sound, she was both terrified and indecisive of what to do next."Tell me that sound is normal," Rynese said.Nobody answered him."Great! Just great!" He said loudly.Kael was already moving with his sword in his hands, his wolf was ready to devour. "How many of them are there?" he asked Valkyrie.The vampire closed her eyes briefly listening and counting in her head. When she opened her eyes, her expression went sour immediately."A lot... A lot." Rynese sighed dramatically."This is not getting any better, I thought they were three.""It's not three, they're actually five.""Ohhh.... Five. That's not a lot compared to how you were making it seem.""No, it's ten." Vikyrie said rolling her eyes.Rynese looked at Vikyrie offended."You're making this difficult on purpose,

    But that's not all." Wisteria turned the wooden piece she'd brought in with her over in her hands."There's a faction within the northern covens that's been pushing to dissolve the Delmar Accord for years. They want to hunt freely again. They want expansion." She looked at Kael. "If they're the one

    The vampire bite marks didn't stop being what they were just because they stared at them for a long time.Zara had learned this about problems. Looking at them longer didn't change their shape. It just gave them more of your time."Alright," she said. "So now we have to worry about vampires.""Appa

    The great moving, as Denice called it, took the better part of the evening.It was not elegant. Moving a pack, an injured contingent, four women with a Codex and specific opinions, and various amounts of accumulated weaponry across the territory line before dark required the kind of logistics that

    The silence after a battle was its own kind of loud.Not peaceful. Not the silence of rest or of a thing resolved.The silence of aftermath. Of men standing in a field that had been something else an hour ago, looking at what was left, taking inventory of what wasn't.Kael stood at the edge of the
