Chapter 8

Terrified

Ram was thrilled when he saw Annie coming into the holding area. She was just in time for lunch. He stood and pulled her into his arms as soon as she came near. The kiss he gave her told everyone present that she belonged to him and him alone.

“I’m glad you made it for lunch. It’s about to be served and I ordered a plate for you,” Ram informed.

“Thank you. I’m hungry.” They both sat but Ram noticed they had drawn everyone’s attention. He really didn’t care. If they were going to be working together, they should get used to it. His people, in general, demonstrated affection regularly.

“Anything exciting happening?” Annie asked.

“We are creating a list of potential paranormal groups that haven’t been heard of for ages. A few I’m not sure ever existed,” Nite offered.

“They existed,” Ram assured. “If you were a rare unicorn whose horn was coveted for health and sexual benefits by humans and paranormals alike, you’d hide too,” Ram assured.

“What about big bad dragons?” Nite challenged.

“They were hunted for their hordes of gold and jewels. A king would gather his best warriors and a magic user and even badass dragons would fall,” Ram explained.

“Mermen?” Dae asked.

“I know they existed. They used to come to my people for charms that allowed them to stay on land for long stretches of time. Others hunted them because they were exotic and said to be incredible lovers. Mermen die in captivity,” Annie explained.

“Any more questions?” Ram asked.

“Yes, how will dwarves and trolls help us? They are rumored to be extremely disagreeable,” Nite wondered.

“That is true, but they have worked with other groups in times of strife. They don’t wish to be slaves any more than we do,” Ram said.

“How will we ever find all these groups? They are all hiding for a reason.” Dae observed.

“That’s were Annie comes in. If we can find an object that belongs to them, she can locate them.” Ram explained.

“It’s that simple?” Nite asked.

“Few things are simple. Some have been hiding so long it will be difficult to find objects they owned,” Annie pointed out. “Even if we locate them, some will be in isolated areas that are hard to access, like the bottom of the ocean.”

“The dolphin shifters can find them,” Nite suggested.

“They must already know where they are and they haven’t shared the information. They may have an agreement that won’t allow them to do so,” Annie observed.

“Maybe, but they can still take them a message,” Dae said.

“That’s an excellent idea. Anyone know a dolphin?” Ram asked.

“I know a few. I swim from time to time,” Dae explained.

“Vampires don’t need to breathe. I imagine you go deep,” Ram observed.

“How did you know?” Dae asked.

“Sometimes you forget to breathe for too long to be anything else,” He explained.

“Vampires do need to breathe. We can just go longer than any other kind without doing so,” Dae remarked.

“All this is almost like entering a dream. I’ll believe in pretty little unicorns and flame throwing dragons when I see one face to face,” Nite challenged.
