The call left Will and Jake speechless for a few minutes.

Snapping out of his trance, Jake took the receiver again, “Denise, I need to see all associates in the conference room, asap.”

Will didn’t know what to do or say. He wasn’t sure if he should stay or leave. The vampire stood up and prepared to exit his office. Before he disappeared, he turned to Will, “This will only take a minute,” Jake said. “Stay here, I’ll be right back.”

Will tried to relax on the chair, but he was too agitated for that. Instead, he listened to the commotion outside the office. With his supernatural sense of hearing, he followed the other vampires as they gathered in a room, eager to learn more about what was going on. Yet when the door closed, everything went silent. A soundproof room, he figured. Clever. In an office where lawyers and clients could overhear a conversation, it didn't surprise him they had built soundproof rooms. It made perfect sense. As perfect as it was, it disappointed him because now he wouldn’t be able to listen in to what they were about to say.

Will couldn't stay in the dark trapped in an office. Standing up, he walked to open the door, and from there, he could see the vampires inside the conference room listening as Jake debriefed them on the situation. There weren’t many vampires working for the firm - counting Jake, they were just three men and a woman. That made for four vampires in the entire building. Everybody else who worked in the office was human.

It occurred to him no witches worked there, either. If Lucius had announced the only surviving witches were on their way, it meant there weren't any in the building. Somehow it didn't make sense for the Head Witch to be disconnected from a place like this. The witches would have benefited if one of them worked for the law firm. Unless they had their own offices. Had. Crazy to think it was all gone now.

The vampires ended their meeting and Jake stormed out of the conference room to come back to his office.

“Maybe I should leave,” Will suggested when Jake was close. “We could do this another day.”

“Nonsense,” Jake dismissed the thought. “We can start.” The lawyer then stopped, studying Will. “Unless you have someplace else to be.”

Will gulped, “Uhm, no. Not really.”

“Thought so.” Jake fixed his tie and sat down behind his desk again, finally opening the folder waiting on it. “Let’s do this.”

Throughout the process, Will couldn’t help but wonder what was really going on outside those walls. He'd been the one who'd alerted them about the traitorous witch helping the werewolves. They'd all looked confused and surprised at first, perhaps even a little incredulous, when Will had suggested it. Maybe if they'd done something about it sooner, they wouldn’t be in this culprit.

When Rebecca called him the day before to let him know she was traveling to Virginia on her day off with Dylan, Will should've known there was something very, very wrong.
