Chapter 5

Chapter 5

Dawn has just arrived. I had finished getting patched up and tell mom, dad, Alex, and uncle Shawn what happened after I was taken. To say they were outrage would be an under statement. Of all of them Alex handled it the best but he has had more time to come to grips with it. Mom has attached herself to my hip an hasn't let go of me since. Dad got quiet really quiet. He looked at uncle Shawn.

“Make the calls.”

“John are you sure about this.” His I eyes narrow at his long time friend. “You know I'm with you. Now and always. But if we go much farther than this there will be blood old friend.”

“I know man but we can't let this slide.”

“You know the others will say you are just pushing this because it Rain.”

“I hear what your saying. An you know I would stand for any one of our people if this happen to them. But if we are not willing to make the covens toe the line when its and alphas child. Then why would we do it for any normal pack member.” He say's this all with the air of an ethics professor giving an impassioned speech talking to his class. This is nothing new to us and from what I'm told his speeches where instrumental in uniting the packs. Shawn smile's tiredly an rest his hand on his shoulder.

“Yes professor. I will get to it then.” He quietly leaves the room.

“Alex does he have a wallet? We can't just keep calling him the human.” Alex picks threw the bag of my protectors belongings and fishes out his wallet.

“His name is William Hawkins say's hes twenty eight and he lives in Rock Springs.” Dad grunt's upon hearing his name.

“Will indeed to survive this long after the beating he's taken.” Dad rubs his chin looking through the observation window at Doc Franklin struggling to save his patient. Fathers head turns toward the door. He gets a far away look in his eyes for a second. He turns to mom and me.

“Daniels has entered our lands an is asking to speak with us my dear. He says Raphael sent him fearing something happened. James is bring him in.”

A small growl rattles out of Alex chest. I raise an eyebrow at him. He waves me off and turns away from me. His wolf is acting up about a vampire come no to are pack land. That's what I thought. Daniel has been nothing but good to us an Alex knows this. My wolf woofs her agreement.

“Raphael must have come across Charles before he could get rid of your scent honey.” Says mom as she rubs my shoulder an givings me a squeeze. About thirty minutes late Daniel arrives.

He comes through the door an scans the room. He nods to each of my family members in turn then his eyes land on the last of the fading bruise on my left cheek. His eyes go wide his hand clenches and he goes still. It is a stillness that only a vampire can achieve. Alex an dad watch him very closely. Then a slow breath sighs out of him. He looks me in the eye and there's a question in his blue eyes.

“I'm okay Dan. He didn't get to finish what he started. Not even one drop of my blood reached his lips.” His shoulders slump in relief. I am the only person he lets call him Dan.

“It was a near thing Dan.” I turn a look at Will through the window.

“What is his name so Raphael and I can show are gratitude properly when he wakes?” He says to dad.

“His name is William Hawkins an you and Raphael will have to get in line with the rest of us. That's if he survives the goddess willing.” Dad intones the last part softly.

“I will offer my prayers to the veiled moon goddess as well.” Dan bows his head in silent prayer.

It is some what odd to hear a vampire talk about praying to the goddess but Raphael and Dan are part of a growing number of vampires that do. These vampires are generally know as progressives for they prefer to work with us as well as pray to the goddess.
