Chapter Eight

TEN DAYS AFTER making arrangements for Annie’s safety in Keller’s condo, they were no closer to finding the rogue werewolves. It was early Wednesday afternoon, and Sarah had a few errands to run before she needed to be at the studio for her first lesson of the day. Since the singer was busy, Keller made arrangements to meet Louve at a martini bar to discuss their situation. She was nursing her first drink when the Frenchwoman walked through the door. Keller didn’t even wait for Louve’s first drink to arrive. “Have you found out anything?”

Louve gave the barest shake of her head. “Non, we have nothing. I have spoken with Raph and he is coming to Columbus with his two eldest sons.”

Keller raised an eyebrow. “What are they going to do for us? And who will be running his farm?”

“His wife, Rosaline, will be running it while they are away, and his brother and sister-in-law, Marcel’s parents, will also stay in Quebec. He is afraid that Jean and Adrienne will not allow him to harm their son, even if Marcel proves to be a danger that needs to be eliminated.”

The vampire was surprised that Louve’s friend was willing to truly take care of the problem with Marcel. “Well, that is certainly good news. And when will they be arriving?”

Louve’s drink was placed in front of her and they waited until the bartender walked away before the werewolf answered. “Raph said the three of them still have some arrangements to make so they cannot leave until this weekend. It’s about a twelve-hour drive from the Village de Labelle, in Quebec. Their farm is a few kilometers outside the village. They will of course be staying with me at the farm house.”

Pale eyebrows rose. “Driving?”

Louve nodded. “Yes, that is easiest for them in case he does not want to return home. They may have to subdue him for the trip. And if he is killed, it will be much easier to transport the body without involving the authorities.”

Keller was skeptical. “I know the border between Canada and the US is pretty lax, but how would they pull that off?”

The werewolf gave her a little smile. “My people have their ways, as you should well know.”

Keller nodded and sat for a few minutes thinking about all that Louve had said. They had known each other for a long time and the silence was not uncommon between them. Finally, she looked at her friend. “So what is the next step? Should we all meet again when Raph and his boys arrive?”

The circus manager nodded solemnly. “I think that is the best we can do for now.”

“Has Marie said anything yet?”

Louve gave her a frustrated look. “Alain has spoken with her many times and she denies that she has been running with Marcel. She also denies that she has done anything wrong other than show interest in your wolf. I don’t know what to do with her, mon ami. I have always been protective of my people, and I would hate for her to think I do not trust her word.
