Scarlet

Unexpected Meetings

“Let us talk with everyone present,” the older male says. “Introductions are necessary not only for your new consort but for our refugees.”

Standing, he gestures toward the door and we all file out of his office into what I would assume is a common room. Several men are seated on couches doing various things. I spot a book, a tablet, and a laptop. Before I am able to take in more of the room, a familiar face fills my vision.

“Here you go,” Lily says, pressing a glass into my hand. “A promise is a promise. And you’re going to need it.”

The sweet scents of pineapple and coconut float to my nose and I can’t help but smile.

“Thank you.”

Kyson draws me away from her, leading me to the opposite side of the open area before taking a seat on a tan couch and pulling me down beside him. Everyone in the room is staring. First at us and then at the two new vampires before moving back to us once more. A smart retort sits on the tip of my tongue but I bite it back.

The man from the office claps his hands loudly, drawing everyone’s attention.

“Tonight has been busy. First, I would like to welcome Scarlet to our coven officially as Kyson’s consort,” he says with a restrained smile. Hoots and hollers erupt from the men and I can’t help but blush as I take a big sip of my fruity cocktail. “My name is Aziel and I lead this coven. Kyson is responsible for you, but you are now part of our family. If he ever does anything to hurt or betray you, come to me. I will be the one that separates his head from his shoulders.”

Shock courses through me. This man that I’ve never met essentially just promised to kill his friend if I asked. These people really are fucking nuts.

“You will get to know the other members of the coven in the coming weeks. Kyson will introduce you,” Aziel continues as if he hasn’t just rocked my world. “Second, we have some guests.” He gestures to the men standing beside him. “I have offered refuge after their Coven was destroyed by Jagters. Randy and Simon are welcome here as long as they adhere to our rules.”

Everyone nods, including the newcomers.

“What about the Jagters?” A man with dark hair and an Irish accent asks from behind a laptop. “Do we know where they are now?”

“We know they were in town some time ago,” Kyson supplies from beside me. “We know they wiped out our sister coven on the other side of the forest but that is all.”

“What is the plan?” Lily asks from her seat beside another unknown man.

So many faces I will have to get to know in the coming weeks. For now I am just trying to retain as much information as possible.

“That will depend on Kyson,” Aziel says, looking in our direction. “Now that his consort has accepted him and joined the Coven, he can return to usual duties or he can choose someone to replace him.
