The Mark Of The Immortal

Chapter 13

I was in minimal pain from Derick and I sex session last night, but now I wanted to stay on the floor mat and become part of the decoration. My trainer was this very big man named Roy, he looked like he could eat me but he was really nice. He helped me up off the floor and muscles ached from five hours of training and being thrown around the room.

“How are you feeling?” he asked.

“Everywhere hurts.” I whimpered.

“It’s because it’s your first training session.” He said handing me a bottle of water.

“Okay.” I said and stood it was almost time for dinner but I had a meeting with the leaders. “See you tomorrow Roy.” I said slowly walking out of the gym. I made it up the stairs with great effort, I wanted to fall on the bed but I had responsibilities and I needed to bathe. I filled the tub and got in, I had been practicing my powers. Fin folk. Had a mermaid tale so I’d say good try and a gold star for me.

The water helped soothing my aching muscles. I got out after thirty minutes feeling way better. I put on decent wear and went downstairs to the office where the meeting had already started.

“Sorry I’m late.” I walked over to Derick and sat beside him.

“We need to know the plan.” Arogon the dragon leader said.

“We need someone to play the part of traitor.” I said leaning forward. “I know the perfect traitor.” I smiled.

“Why a traitor?” Matteo asked.

“If they attack us in our environment then we’ll have the upper hand.” Derick said.

“But won’t that destroy your territory?” Neptune asked.

“That’s what we want we want to get rid of all these territories and boundaries.” I inquired.

“Why?” he asked shocked.

“Over the years we have noticed that the traditional mating has been eliminated. We want everyone to be a community where they can pass through areas in search of their mate and not be attacked.” Derick was all about this plan.

“That is anarchy.” Arogon said.

“Get your head out of the smoke.” I hissed at him.

“Come forward.” I told him. He was hesitant in his action. “I’m not going to kill you.” I assured him. He came forward and I sniffed him taking in his sulphur and cologne smell. “You have not found your mate and I know exactly where she is.” I smiled.

“How did you know that?” He asked confused.

“I don’t know but your mate is in Silvermoon Pack, her name is Katya.” I smiled.

“Fine.” He gave, he was smiling. He was thinking of Katya.

“And I know that some of you are tired of hiding your existence because people use your skins and scales as decoration or weapon.” I stood.

“So all for the demolishing of territories.” Derick said, they were all like the Queens council.

“The Alpha’s and Luna’s will stay in place to keep order.” I said.

“The leeches are in.” Matteo said laughing.

“We are all in.” they said.

“Good.” I smiled.

“So who is this traitor?” Derick asked.

“Paul.” I said. He was the one that gave me my first beating when I came.

“No!” he yelled.

“He’s the best candidate.” I snapped.

“He hates you.” He hissed.

“I know isn’t that fun.” I grinned like a goofball.

“No.” he kept saying.

“Anyways I’ll go over to his house or tell his wife or I could just plant it in his head.” I said to them. Someone was at the door, I put my finger on my lips and stretched out my hand pulling the person inside. “Ethan what are you doing here buddy?” I asked the little boy. I looked in his memory to see if he heard anything but he was clear.

“Gina and I wanted to see if you wanted to play.” He looked down at the floor.

“Sure I’ll be there in a few minutes.” I looked at the little boy as he ran out the room after my response.

“So I’ll be at Paul’s house with the kids.” I smiled my plan was coming into play.

“Is everybody okay with this plan? Except Derick.” I looked at the leaders in front of me.

“Yes.” They said in unison.

“Good. Dinner will be ready soon.” I said as they left Derick and I alone.

“I don’t think you should go over to Paul by yourself.” He turned his back. “That’s why I’m coming with you.” He turned and I kissed him.

“Thought I’d have mesmerize you.” I joked.

“You’re gifts don’t work on me.” He said.

“Really?” I held out my hand and I tried to get him to do anything but it failed.

“Mhmm. That seems to be true.” I was okay with it.
We met up with Ethan and Gina outside and made our way to Paul’s house. His house was like all the other’s in the area colonial style all around porch. We knocked and told the children to play in the front yard. Paul’s wife Sue opened the door and she smiled broadly.

“Alpha, Luna.” She ushered us inside and we went in. “What brings you to our humble abode?” She smiled but some uncertainty was in her smile. Like a fly in a trap. Just like her husband she couldn’t be trusted.

“Actually Derick is here to speak to Paul and I am here to ask you about a recipe that I want to try to cook.” I smiled sweetly.

“Oh sure.” She smiled. “Paul is in the den. Straight down the hall.” She continued smiling. Derick followed her direction and she and I headed for the kitchen.

“Do you have kids?” I asked.

“Oh no hate the little suckers.” She said.

“Oh okay.” I smiled. “I want the sponge cake recipe.” I told her.

“Oh here it is but add extra sugar emphasizes the taste.” She said. I was terrible at small talk and I dove right into what I had to say.

“I want to bake before we go to war.” I said innocently.

“War?” she asked.

“Oh my I shouldn’t have told you that.” I covered my mouth.

“No it’s okay. We are recipe buddies now.” She smiled sweetly.

“Okay. So we are bringing war to the council. We are tired of their leadership.” I smiled.

“Really?” She choked the celery.

“Yes but you can’t tell anyone Derick is asking for Paul to fight too.” I said I heard a loud chop I swear she chopped off her finger.

“Okay.” Her smile wasn’t genuine and I’m glad she took the bait. Paul and Derick came from the den smiling and Paul greeted me with a big smile and I smiled back.

“It was nice seeing you guys again.” I said as we stood by the door about to leave.

“Great seeing you guys too.” They said and we left them to build up a plan to betray us.
