"The Vile Queen will prevail," the commander declared as his eyes became emotionless balls of black while his lips smirked in pride. Saint had already grabbed me out of the way while Neo sighed in pure annoyance.
None of us were able to move fast enough as the blurred movement of a massive creature crashed into the man and sent him flying right through the glass windows. His final scream was cut off by the explosive device.
His remains fell with the rest of the debris, but I didn't feel satisfied after being so close to messing up.
My eyes moved to the massive wolf of shadows, which began to decrease as the spiraling energy danced around him until it licked his flesh and extinguished like flames - revealing Onyx.
"You know, I hate being interrupted when I'm about to have a good fucking," he pointed out.
Neither I nor Saint spoke while Neo huffed, "You had your fun at least five times now. Don't go complaining about doing shit."
"Admit it. You're jealous," Onyx said with a smug grin as he turned around to face us.
"You're making it harder for me to have fun later," Neo muttered. "I also didn't get any models for my session."
Onyx casually walked over to Neo, tapping his shoulder when he reached him. "I decided to be nice and gathered a few reinforcements that went to the wrong building. Go wild."
"You just want more sex time," Neo pointed out the obvious.
"I need at least three more rounds with Sugar. Then she's yours."
"She'll be a he by then," Neo acknowledged.
"That ain't stopping you." Onyx smirked but decided to acknowledge the room before his eyes landed on Saint and me. "So we're dealing with a vile bitch who’s ancient as shit, and it looks like Willow and Aurelia are approaching targets."
"That's what you summed up, huh?" Saint concluded. "We need info on that blazing wolf."
"We need info on a whole bunch of shit, but we have to get moving if we want our plans to commence," I urged. My brain was already putting the pieces together, but if I wanted to make sure we were on point with this theory of the Coven becoming a threat to our kind, we'd have to work faster.
"The Coven won't betray us," Neo noted.
"Unless they push the right buttons," Onyx countered. "And wouldn't that make sense as to why suddenly Aurelia's been promoted to the Coven Council when they've been delaying it because of her hybrid blood?"
"They wanted her to trigger me," Neo concluded. It made perfect sense.
"Do you think they know that it happened?" Saint inquired.
"No," Neo responded with a slight shake of his head. "If that truly happened, Aurelia would be dead."
"He's right about that," Onyx acknowledged.
"We're playing in the big leagues," I grumbled. "More of a nuisance."
"And yet you feel far too happy," Onyx pointed out, and I allowed myself to grin at the comment.
"I love when those in power underestimate us." It was the best weapon we had, and though we could have slipped up tonight -though I trusted Neo could have killed him and destroyed that bomb in a second -we got more than enough information to know what our next move would be.
"Saint, get Jayce up to date on what occurred. Start scouting a second office near here. If you can get the building across, that's fine with me. I don't care about the price."
"Oh, we’re moving?" Saint sounded intrigued.
Neo chuckled, which caught our attention, and I knew he already picked up on what I wished to accomplish.
"You could just ask me to buy out New York," he encouraged.
"I would, but I don't want to tip anyone off on this. Plus, you'd be stealing from William."
"Hmm?" Onyx was the one to question my statement. "Why is that?"
