Cassidy was once again up early, keen to get the planning underway. She could hear some staff already moving to put things in place, and the last thing she wanted was to build the impression that she and Nathan were leaving everything up to them.She got showered and as she left the bathroom, Nathan stirred. He didn’t need to ask her to know what she was thinking. Instead, he too got up to get ready for the day, and she decided to wait for him.When he was done, the two of them headed out. They decided that it would be best to eat their breakfast in the kitchen with everyone else, something that surprised the staff. Once the initial awkwardness had passed, they settled into light conversations as Cassidy and Nathan got to know more about the other people living in the castle with them.Once they were all done eating, Nathan held a short meeting with them to confirm that they were all aware of what’s needed of them. Once everything was confirmed and set in place, they went their separa

He ran through the trees, chasing the scent. It was a peculiar scent, and he hadn’t caught it in weeks. He knew that it was his biggest lead in weeks, and that he couldn’t lose it. He masked his own scent, making sure to go undetected.The scent led him straight to a massacre. The blood was still fresh, and as he inspected the scene, he realized that different creatures had been slaughtered. It was the third massacre in three months, with some of his own people being victims.It was what brought the massacres to his attention.From their silence, he knew that the other species weren’t aware of what was going on just as yet, but because him and his kinfolk are connected, they all felt it the first time their people were brutally murdered.And he knew they were aware of the latest deaths too.He scouted the area, looking for any clues, but he found none. Much like the other two sites, there was nothing to point towards the possible murderer, or if it were just one to begin with.He need

From the moment he set foot into the castle, the hybrids in her stirred. She hadn’t even seen him, but she knew. She tried to avoid him as she’d been avoiding the other Alphas, but he specifically scented her out, stopping her from leaving the room.“I’ve found you again,” he said lowly.“Let go Tyson. I’m already trying to keep my cool as is,” she warned. Killian was somewhere else with Nathan, leaving her to face her enemy alone.“I’m not here to make you mad. I’m just checking up on my mate,” he insisted.She turned to him, eyes glowing a bright blue. “I am not your mate Tyson, and I’m getting tired of saying it.”“That’s where you’re wrong Calypso. Did it ever occur to you why you’ve had three mates in the first place?”And with that, he let go of her, vanishing into the crowd of other Alphas. She was seething, a bolt of electricity unexpectedly leaving her. That drew enough eyes her way, with Samantha taking her outside to calm her down.It didn’t work much, but Killian took over

The conference talks went well into the night, with the Alphas debating on how best to handle things going forward. While the gang thought that there were cliques amongst the Alphas, the debates proved that even if that is true, the Alphas were all choosing to speak their minds, despite what anyone else thought.They let Jordan go, counting on him to tell Jeremiah and Tyson not only what had happened to him, but what had happened at the conference as well. They had shared various strategies on how to handle the trio, but they hadn’t reached a conclusive result on the next step.Penelope and Moira had spent the time making sure that everyone had sufficient drinks and snacks, and when the Alphas opted to not take a dinner break, they had their food brought to them. The Alphas enjoyed everything about being hosted, including the menu.By the time the castle settled down, the gang met up in one of the empty rooms, where Amaya put up a barrier to keep them being heard from the outside. The

Cassidy and Remy were in charge of facilitating the sparring, with different Alphas taking on each other. The whole event was adrenaline charged as each Alpha sought to not only prove themselves, but save themselves the embarrassment of being beaten by anyone beneath them.They sparred for hours, with Cassidy and Remy going from bottom to top. There were some surprises along the way, with some Alphas finding themselves moving up in rank. It eventually came to Garrett, and he fought Nathan, eventually losing to him, but maintaining his spot beneath him.They’d left Calypso for last, which had the Alphas beyond baffled. “Are they suggesting that she’s better than the King? Isn’t she just a Princess?”“She may just be a Princess, but she’s a hybrid,” another Alpha reminded as the siblings circled each other.“Take it easy on me, will you? I still have the talks to facilitate,” Nathan linked his sister.She laughed before linking back. “Won’t even bring my full power. Might let you shine

Zen was immediately intimidated by the men and women around him. He may be royalty, but he knew that the men and women he was in the room with, had the power to take that away from him. They all eyed him, not a single one speaking up.“The men and women before you come from the prestigious families that have kept the vampire kingdom running behind the scenes for all these years. They all have something to lose by betting on you, but before we get to them, I need to teach you the history of the order,” Frazier told him, leaving the room.He assumed it meant that he had to follow, and he looked back to check if the other men were coming along, but they weren’t. Instead, he could hear the silence break as they all discussed their first impressions of him. He was too far gone to hear what they were saying, and eventually, they were out of earshot.He and his uncle walked for a while, before coming to the dead-end of one of the hallways – or at least he assumed it was a dead-end, until the

He ignored every call telling him to return.He was furious and confused, and just couldn’t deal with having to take any more orders. He needed to first run the anger out, because he knew it would work out better for him to not return in the mood he was in.All his life he had been brought up to be an Alpha, and for four years, he got to live that dream. But now, in one night, everything had been taken away from him in the blink of an eye.He could remember the look in the King-to-be’s eyes – taking away his Alpha lineage was personal for the man. He wasn’t sure yet how, or why, but that man enjoyed taking away his powers.He hadn’t seen his pack for weeks, couldn’t even trace them, until his powers were taken away from him. He could feel them somewhere in the castle, until his link to them was completely lost.Not only had he lost his power, but he’d lost his family as well.He grown up around those people, and he’d seen them through different stages of life. They’d seen him through

Samantha was frozen, despite what had just been said to her. She was breathing, but she couldn’t believe that he was finally standing before her, that he’d finally revealed himself. He didn’t say anything either, taking her in.Killian was suspicious of what he could sense between the two of them, and when no one was speaking, Calypso took control. “Who are you?”He turned away from his mate to look at her. “My name is Hale.”“And what are you Hale?” Killian asked him.Hale raised an eyebrow at him. “If I ask you the same question, will you furnish me with an answer?”Killian was cornered. “How can we trust what you’re saying? Why not stop the attack? How do we know you’re not one of the people who were a part of the attack?”“I’m fast, but not that fast. You know the attack is fresh. When would I have had time to clean up and show myself to you? Besides, my people got attacked too,” Hale replied.“And you did nothing to stop the attack?” Nathan asked him.“I had to be smart. I watche
