"Alpha Brendan of the North eastern pack is the true identity of the mystery man and our traitor is still unknown", Noah says as we all walk into my council room. I let out a puff of air holding onto the door handle as i take a deep calming breath.
"What is it do you know him personally Rose", Damien asked wrapping his hand around my waist for support as i tried to reign in my emotions.
I'd known Alpha Brendan for as long as i can remember he was with the team that came with Julian to get me out of my parents house w..w..when they passed", i said not liking to use the word murdered , it caused a surge of pain i couldn't deal with right now.
"Im sorry my Rosie but dont worry this Alpha Brendan guy who ever the fuck he is will not be living long after this because I'll have his heart in my hand ", Damien said in a low voice that almost kinda scared me i guess that some of the rumors about the Prince of darkness and his cruelty might not have been just rumors. I cleared my throat as Jordan helped me into my Thorne giving me a small boost. Just as i got settled the council rushes in looking angry in frustrated.
"Attack plan?", Depfus said his fangs out as he snarls. The rest of the council looked just as pissed and a room of pissed off old power people never ended well.
Depfus was one of my oldest council members stuck in the ways of the old wolves and he was by for the stuffiest. We rarely ever saw eye to eye on any topic much to the annoyance of the rest of the council, sometimes our disagreements lasted several meetings and I really hoped to kick his ass some day soon.
"Why would Alpha Brendan even come at us like that when our forces strongly out number him", Jordan yelled banging his fist on the table. Then after that outburst everyone wanted to talk back and have their own loud opinions heard.
"Well i think we should invade and kill him he deserves worse but in light of your past with him my queen death will be his punishment ", Ethan the youngest of the council said.
"Why must we kill maybe we should trap him violence isnt the answer people please ", Andrea said pursing her lips.
"Trap him oh please woman we still don't know who the traitor among us is he could be out in under a week we need to kill him",someone yelled from the back of the crowd as other people joined in yelling out there opinions. This was chaos and it needed to stop.
" Enough!" I yelled loudly standing up hitting my hand against the arm of my Thorne, "This is my function i will have peace you will silence your concerns and opinions untill your queen gives you the command to speak so shut the fuck up!".
Everyone stares opened mouthed full of surprise even Damien. I might have been a newly crowned queen but i'd lived here my whole life and i think some people still knew me as that six year old little girl who was to sacred to use the bathroom alone.
But I was not a child nor would I let any of them roll over me. Some of my rage I think came from the betrayal of alpha Brenden and also from knowing there was likely one or more traitor in this room it hurt my heart deeply and the only way I knew to respond was anger.
I wish my father was here he was always such a patient ruler even calming my mom down at her worst but he wasn't.
"Our plan of action is not up for debate this might be America but this is far from a democratic", i said as i settled myself back in my throne . "Brenden isnt stupid he would never just blatantly attack us knowing that we are bigger in size with no back up or fall plan , no he has something or someone big backing him up or else he would never even try us like this", i said biting my lip. I had been thinking about this whole "mystery man" situation for a while now and some things just weren't adding up. I mean alpha brenden is a big guy how the hell could he have gotten in and out of a heavily guarded compound full of vampires with sensitive
Olfactory systems the day Alex got hurt?
How did he carry a body dripping with blood onto guarded vampire territory with no one seeing him? And why would he wanna hurt us in the first place? I just think there is a lot of unknown and i for one will not rush in to the unknown head first without a real plan or any basic information about what kind of situation were walking into.
"Our plan of action as of now will be to find all the information we can about Alpha Brendan and his pack and i will return to my chambers to make some decisions on how i want to handle this situation and anybody that doesn't agree with me can take it up with your mothers because that's the only person who gives a damn about what you think now i think this meeting is over", i said as Damien took my hand his face expressionless as he helps me down from my Thorne. My people looked at me like they had never seen me before there mouths wide hands over there heart like they might have a heart attack. I walked out like a true queen my head held high , my heels clicking against the white granite floors as i make my grand exit knowing im the only one with a plan.
"So how you gonna destroy Brenden", Jasmine said.
"I have no fucking idea", i said as i laid back on my bed. Damien had stayed with me for a while but then he'd left saying he had some urgent ass business to attend to but i didn't care i barley liked him anyway.
"But i thought you were a women with a plan Ms. Know it all you wouldn't know a plan if it smacked you in the head " , Jasmine said laughing as she drank her martini. After Damien left i was feeling bored so i asked Jasmine to come and help me brainstorm but she was actually just talking shit though that was no surprise.
"I know i know i thought i had a plan but when the x-ray vision and the time traveling plan I had failed i had nothing left to go on,"i said laughing. I really had tried to figure out a plan i set at my thinking desk for like four hours trying to figure out a plan that didn't evolve hamburgers and fries did i mention how hungry I was yelling at my royal subjects took lots of energy so did faking a plan.
"What the hell is that", Jasmine said pointing to the cigarette i had smoked earlier.
"Its just a cigarette Malaysia said it would help me stay calm down and mellow out and don't even go warning me about the dangers of breast cancer im immortal", i said laughing as she ripped the box from under my pillow.
" what the fuck Rose these are not cigarettes this is weed", Jasmine yelled.
"Huh no way your lying u stupid box what where would i even get weed from and why are there two of you", i yelled giggling.
"Did Malaysia say those were cigarettes or did u just assume they were Because as of now you are high as a kite", Jasmine said laughing as me as she took out her phone she was probably going to text Damien and tell him im up here acting all crazy and stupid well guess what i don't care he's not my dad and i don't care about what he thinks. In fact im gonna go find him. I stand up wobbling a little as i walk to the door ready to face my sexy yet irritating mate. The door opens a servant peeking around the corner with a tray in his hands. What the hell was he doing here.
"My queen here is your dinner i brought it to you with specific orders from prince of darkness lord Damien ", he say bowing slightly out of respect. Oh hell no now that pig face wanted to force feed my ass ohhh no just cause im high doesn't mean im stupid. Oh my gosh what if he got me high so i could be stupid but im not high enough so he put weed in the food.
"Go away you evil dragon", i said then i took off my shoe throwing it in his face as i made a run for it. All i could hear was Jasmine chocking on her laughter as i ran but i ignored her. I ran till i got to the top of the stairs and saw Damien talking with his brother.
"Damien you fucking druglord!" I yelled as i ran down the stairs at him. Things were going fine one stair at a time till i missed a step my ankle twisting as i fell and then my head smashed against the floor. My eyes closed and i could hear people running at me screaming telling me to stay awake but all of a sudden i was just too tired to stay awake.
"Bye bitches" , i whispered as i fell into complete darkness
