Blood Claims and Broken Vows
"Dear Isolde, you are cordially invited to attend the negotiations between the Eternal Blood Group and the Crimson Moon Clan."
The card was handwritten. I recognized my brother's script.
"You're negotiating with the Crimson Moon Clan?" I asked, my eyes wide. "How did they agree to that?"
"They have no choice," my brother said, a predator's smile on his lips. "Their blood sources are nearly depleted. They negotiate with us, or they wither into dust."
I remembered my brother telling Draven's mother that he would make her family pay, but I didn't expect him to do it in just six months.
