Expect The Unexpected

Chapter 19

"Your majesties the throne room is set up for you."A vampire wearing a nice suit told Tanya, Rosalie and Isabella when they entered the castle with the rest of the group that traveled with them from Forks except for Anne, Irina and Victoria. Rosalie wished she had the chance to go with her sisters to meet Anne's mate but they had to many things that needed their attention first. Addressing their new subjects and some of their allies being the most important. Rosalie was excited to finally have the chance to be involved in all the work Isabella was doing. Even though Isabella had both Rosalie and Tanya completing tasks Rosalie always felt she wasn't really doing much to help her beloved. Now that everything was out in the open she would be able to an active participant in how the vampire world was going to be run and it wouldn't all just fall on Isabella's shoulders.

"Thank you Thomas. Are the representatives from the Russian and Japanese royal families here?"Isabella asked.

"Yes they are."Thomas confirmed.

"Give us a half an hour to take care of some things then bring them into the throne room. In the mean time I want you to have the assistants for Kate, Eleazar and Carmen meet us there immediately."Isabella told him.

"Yes, my queen."Thomas bowed and took off to complete his tasks.

"Who was that?"Kate asked.

"That was Thomas my personal assistant."The kings had assigned Thomas to Isabella when she first came to the castle and the pair had become very close over the centuries they spent together."Each of you will be given your own as well. They will be able to assist you in getting acclimated to not only the castle but your roles as well."

"We all appreciate that thank you."Eleazar was happy that he would have someone to ask questions about the many things he knew that were going to come up while living in the castle and starting his job in the archives.

"How come we haven't seen anyone wearing robes?"Carmen had seen numerous vampires that were obviously guards all dressed in black suits.

"For two reasons. The first being we didn't want any reminder of the old kings' reign and the second was that the guards hated wearing them. I asked what they wanted to wear instead and the majority picked out black suits."Isabella explained.

"I wouldn't want to wear a robe either."Kate was happy that the uniform for guards had changed. As she was a member of it she would have hated them. Plus everyone looked a lot more badass in black suits than they did in robes.

"Your team will get top wear whatever you want because you will going undercover most of the time."It made Tanya happy to be able to give Kate the opportunity to do something that she would love doing. Her sister deserved to be rewarded for putting up with everything Tanya and Isabella put them through. Hell everyone in her family did.

"We will be going undercover?"Kate had thought that were just going to be acting as a hit squad not doing any spying.

"You and your team are going to be sent on many different kinds of missions. Some will include you infiltrating different groups of people who wish to overthrow us to get information on the inner workings of each cell of enemies."Isabella told her.

"Sweet!"Kate was even more excited to get started on training with her team.

"Thank you."Rosalie said to the two guards standing outside the throne room who opened the doors for them. As soon as they entered the three dozen vampires in the room all went to one knee.

"You may rise."Tanya was pleased with the gesture. Isabella had promised that they wouldn't have any problems with the vampires left in the castle but Tanya was still going to keep her guard up.
