Claws and code

I know, I'm late. I'm sorry! So this is an extra long chapter for you to make up for my slacking...
And remember, this should only be on Wattpad, if you read it elsewhere, it was stolen.
Enjoy...

I didn't need to do much to break the encryption. It was wrong to create a hack for a product I sold legally but it helped now. And the fact that nobody could crack it or find my entry to the code helped ease my conscious. Meanwhile David had already started to decode the identifying markers in the program. While everyone else had been trying to crack our software, he had been looking for the product code because it was our own software. Books Security was a legal business and every program we sold had a product code hidden in the software. It was done so the police could track criminals even if they couldn't get the encrypted information, they could get seller details if they came with a warrant and we could track where it was used last.
We'd installed this when the police came to inform us that our software protected child molesters. This way they could track them to where they were and access the original computer with the data, thereby bypassing the self destruct function. These guys were smart though, they had several product licences, meaning there were several codes to decipher. This proved that they worked in cells and we had attacked their main hub. Purely luck for us but also more to track in different directions.

The Alpha appeared in the doorway with an unwelcome visitor. I knew that I had to remove Jack from my side without being told. After another mind-blowing kiss, he reluctantly left. Cameron informed us when Jack had left hearing distance. There were a lot of security measures in place to protect my identity from all the strangers. The vampire looked on emotionlessly until my Alpha started to speak. "Mr Castellino would like to speak with us. He assured me that it was of utmost importance that nobody be included in this conversation."

Daniel was a strong Alpha but it took a few Lycans or specialised weapons to take out an ancient vampire, so he was on edge.

"My vow to your son and the woman stands. They are family now. You have no reason to fear for her safety... even though she is human."

BOOM. After he dropped that bomb an eerie silence fell in the room. The vampire never stopped looking straight into my eyes. Almost like he was trying to say something but was waiting for us to confirm or deny. We obviously couldn't deny, he knew.

"Can you smell it?" I finally asked.

A small smile graced his lips and suddenly he didn't look so intimidating anymore. "I could smell human blood on all who had been near you in the fight. I confirmed it when I met you but I can understand how the other packs haven't picked it up. I am surprised that your mate is unaware of this though. His wolf seems to know on some level, it is the only reason I have seen in my history where a berserk Lycan moved aside for assistance to a wounded mate. If their mate is wolf, they wait for nature to choose if the mate lives or dies. It is the animal's way."

Both David and Daniel looked surprised. The Lycans hadn't know this about their own species. David nodded. "That actually makes sense."

"Just how old are you?" I asked bluntly. David smirked at me as our eyes met. "He might be old enough to know better." To which I replied. "But we're still too young to care."

"That's quite rude." The vampire said with a bigger smile.

"Can't help it, it's a human habit I guess." I shrugged. To our surprise, he laughed. "It is indeed. I'm glad you are family now. An Alpha pup and a little human. You two will liven things up."

David frowned, he immediately caught something I hadn't. "What will we liven up?"

"As a blood vow has been made to you both, the whole coven is now your coven as well. Not all the coven lived in the building they targeted but upon the alarm they fled their resting places as well and all were saved. You both will need to come to the next gathering. To meet those who owe you both their lives. For them to see you and learn your scent, so we may protect you as we protect our family."
