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

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

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

On the flight back to Milan, Viola contemplated everything the Bureau had said to them. It was wild. She had never heard anything like it. Was it even possible? To enslave the whole human race? It sounded like a stupid idea. From all sides. Leonardo has not said anything to her after the meeting with the Bureau. Nothing to suggest whether or not he was contemplating the idea. She felt like he was, because he had been unusually quiet, but she couldn't understand why he would be. Lyra was feeling much better, they had even attended her cousin's wedding together. She could only stay a little while though, she had left shortly after. There was much to do, with the wedding coming up, she realized that she had not picked her wedding gown. Which was wild considering they had three weeks and a few days before the wedding. She would have to go shopping for a wedding dress since she didn't get one in New York. God there was so much to do and it all seemed so rushed. She felt like they could

"Mr Leonardo? Your beta is here to see you."The staff said after a brief knock on his study door. Leonardo rubbed his tired eyes and looked at the time. It was almost midnight. What was Loki doing at his place so late. "Send him in."He said and the staff nodded and left. Closing the door slightly.When Viola left he had taken a shower, then a small nap. Then after dinner he went to his study to look at financial reports for the company. He was lagging behind at work. Especially with everything that was going on.He hoped whatever Loki was coming with wouldn't give him more stress. "You weren't answering my calls."Loki said as he walked into Leonardo's study.Leonardo opened the first drawer on his table and fished out his phone. He had switched it off. "I wasn't aware."He said as he showed him his phone. Loki sighed."What was so important that it couldn't wait till tomorrow morning."Loki sighed."I just got word from the pack house. Apparently the pack elders had a meeting.
