"Attacks? There were attacks again?" Elder exclaimed in a pissed tone. 

"Gunshots straight to heart, recuperating is very slow. At least a week. The attacks happened in different locations, but all in the same pattern. Bullets pierced their hearts." 

Elder gave another exasperated sigh, his teeth gritting. 

"Do you think it's the Parks, Nana?" 

"No one knows about the Phoenix blood apart from them. We are not really sure if they obtained her blood, but there couldn't be anyone."

He slammed his both hands on the table. 

"Are the Parks asking for war against us?" His pale face showed his jaws clenching. "The audacity to go against my power."

"Just tell us if you wanted an attack—

Nana stopped when the Elder was suddenly in front of her. 

"Where does your loyalty stand, Nana?" He whispered. 

"It will always be on you, Elder."

He caressed her face using her knuckles. Until he gripped her neck, gagging her. 

"Over your clan?" 

"Yes." Nana answered, sucking her breath. 

"Over your father Samuel?" 

"Over my father." Her gaze didn't falter. 

He smiled triumphantly. 

"Just shaken them a bit. Let them remember who reigns among the Nethers." Elder hummed against her earlobe. 

"I want it done tonight. Move." His cold voice commanded.

"An attack?" Samuel's pitch echoed in the library, Louis making his report. 

"Eight warlocks in Spain. Found inside the woods. Ripped hearts."

Samuel's brows creased tenth fold.

"Werewolves."

He stood up from his seat, walking back and forth, uneasy. He stopped by the window, looking outside. 

"It was a warning from the Elder, Samuel. We need to have the phoenix blood in our hands. The Coven only got a single drop of blood from her and she woke up fast. We only got to test Jinyoung's blood and when we injected it among others, it didn't work. It needs to be her pure blood."

"We will die in the werewolves' hands if war starts. Do you know why they attacked us?" Samuel asked. 

"We were attacked unprovoked."

"They always attacked us unprovoked, flexing their superiority. That Elder needs to be humbled for once." Samuel hissed angrily. 

"Or you need to take that lead seat of the Council." Louis answered.
