"Those wolves are possessed wolves, being controlled by a rogue witch. The wolves have attacked our packs and even the witch covens too," I continued.
He snarled again, reaching out with his super speed to grab me by the throat. I felt the pack get ready to attack but I mentally told them to stay down.
"You're lying," he hissed, fangs bared dangerously close to my face.
"No I'm not. In fact, I invited three witches to discuss a possible allegiance to find whoever is behind these attacks. We didn't expect your covens to also be attacked too otherwise we would have extended the invitation," Slowly, I lifted my hand and wrapped it around his wrist, using my strength to pry his grip off my neck. He complied, dropping his arm along with his snarl.
"It's true," Seraphine spoke, making her way to the front of the lines. "My sisters and I have come from the Crescent Sisters to sign an official treaty between wolves and witches," The head witch casually made her way towards us stopping when she stood besides me.
"We realised that old grudges must be forgotten with the threat of new enemies looming ever close," She gave the vampire a calm smile.
"New enemies?" He asked, his hostility disappearing but apprehension still lingering.
"Yes, we all have a common enemy that's currently trying to threaten all that we've built," she continued.
"It seems the hunters have tried instigating a war between all species in the hopes that we would destroy each other," I added.
"Hunters, they were disbanded long ago," he frowned.
"They've come back again with a vengeance," I moved my blazer and top to the side to expose the dark scar over my heart where the arrow had pierced me. Despite my accelerated healing and powers, it had left a black ring which was the effect of the dark magic around the arrow.
The vampire looked shocked, his fingers touching my mark for a second before he pulled at the collar of his shirt to reveal three similar dark circles scattered across his chest. Just like mine, the black ring was slightly jagged and raised.
Letting go of his shirt, he stood up properly, and gave us a small respectful nod. Instantly, the masses of vampires behind him stopped growling and hissing and stood upright, looking less hostile but still tense.
"It seems we have much to discuss," he hummed, watching me intently for a while. I didn't waver under his gaze, meeting his black eyes steadily.
"I am Viktor, leader of the Andrei Clan," he held out a pale hand to me which I shook firmly.
"Artemis, Spirit Wolf and Luna of the Phantom pack," I reciprocated. One of his eyebrows twitched as we released each other's hands.
"A long and impressive title for such a young woman," he mused, his black eyes receding to give way to crimson irises.
"What can I say? I'm a busy woman," I shrugged. He let out a minuscule chuckle before turning his red gaze onto the witch besides me and shaking her hand as she introduced herself.
No, she had always been a leader.
I smiled at the thought, squeezing her hand gently. She glanced at me from the side of her eye, her lips lifting at the corner as she squeezed my hand back, still listening to the incessant ramblings of the vampire.
For a split second, I imagined what she would have been like as child. Unfortunately, she didn't have much of a childhood, which was heartbreaking to hear and it annoyed me that I couldn't do anything about it.
The image of a young Artemis running around, giggling sparked something in my chest. Suddenly, I was imagining several mini Artemis's and mini me's running around, their laughter filling the air.
Was I ready to become a father?
I was brought out of my thoughts by the vampire clapping his hands. I scowled at him, but he didn't seem to notice.
"I'll have what we discussed typed out to sign by tonight," Artemis said, standing up. Everyone else stood up and she shook hands with the bloodsucker.
"This a historical feat Dear Artemis," I scowled as he held her hand for too long. "This simply calls for a celebration,"
