Chapter 382: Avoiding War
EMMA
~
I listened to everything Tiger had to say and it was everything I expected, but I wasn’t so sure how long Grayson would keep his cool. Luther on the other hand was acting in the right mind as a leader, but Grayson let his impulse get to him and he might just fall into this trap and mess created by Dace.
They both might.
And I don’t want that... we can’t risk war with Dace, it’s like a death sentence, Dace has too much power and the vampires are foolish not to swallow their pride. That was why the meeting was needed in the first place, a meeting I had no idea how it went, not until Tiger told me just now, and just as expected the Lords were too stubborn to bury their egos and live.
The Lords were a Council created by the first Count and they held just as much power but ruled over the Count, but even I doubt that control sometimes ever since the first time I stayed a room with them during my introduction to the vampire society.
"Mistress?"
I darted my eyes to my cat’s hazel eyes. I forced a smile. "You did good finding me Tiger, your portal jumps are getting better" I praise him rubbing him just at the back of his ears where he loves it and he purrs.
Tiger gained the knowledge of speech as my powers grew over the years, I didn’t know much about having a Familiar but I knew Tiger was special in every way, even when his voice sounded like teenage boy but with deeper volume, a complete contrast to his age and his cute personality.
"That wound" he eased from my rub and settled his gaze on my shoulder where the awful bite was.
"It’s stopping me from using my powers... as long as it remains I can’t do anything"
