ZADE.
The meetingsted hours, but it is finally over, and a n of action has already been put into ce.
Zaia will meet with the president and Sebastian has already booked a meeting with a few officials,
including the head of the police in this area as well as the mayor.
Atticus is nning to get the microchips deactivated, and that’s where I put forward my input that I can
shut them down if they have the data. I could encrypt them so no one can ess them and wouldn’t be
able to break through them. I would just need a little time to figure out the system. Each microchip has
a unique number, just like a phone sim.
And, my mention of werewolves helping the Arkan had hit a nerve, with several pointing fingers and
turning on one another, but what I wanted to see was if the shock factor brought anything to light and
there were a few that I will investigate.
Then again, I will investigate them all.
But watching their weak trust in one another crack and break as they threw usations was amusing. I
learned that one of the packs suddenly bought arge amount ofnd not long ago. Questions of where
the funding came from arose, but I remained silent, watching usations fly and watching as
Sebastian, Atticus, and Zaia tried to bring order.
I’ll go over everything, making sure that I am not missing anything. We are now back at the mansion
where I mull over other things, things there’s no proof of and until I learn more, I
can’t assume more.
One that includes a certain disease… I nce down at Valerie’s phone, which she had asked me to
hold on to before slipping it back into my pocket. There are several missed calls from the doctor…
Sebastian is the first to rip his out and destroy it the moment he steps into the lounge.
“Don’t get blood on the rug,” Atticus admonishes, giving Sebastian a pointed look. It’s just the five of us
now and it’s pleasantly quiet, although I’m not sure if thepany is pleasant. My work is done here. I
would leave, but Valerie is suddenly acting ten years younger as she and Zaia whisper in the corner.
Although their half–sentences barely make sense. But their girl code is clearly understood between
themselves,
“I wasn’t expecting that…” Valerie whispers.
“Me neither. I just – you know I’m so happy though.”

“Me too. About that? I know!”
“Soo?” Z urges.
“Yes, ok!” Valerie whispers.
“Oh, my goddess and?!”
“Incredible.”
“Really?”
“Really really.”
“Oh, my! I’m so happy for you.”
They switch quickly between conversations and I’m sure half the conversation is being mouthed, but I
have other things to deal with, like getting Atticus to retrieve the data on every chipped werewolf fast.
“I’m going to go check on Adriana. Come on Zaia, I’ll introduce you.” Valerie says, now standing up.
Should I tell her about the doctor? Na, why should I? I’d prefer him ten feet under if it was up to me…
then again, it could be my choice…
“I’d love to meet her,” Zaia says as Valerie smiles at her and turns to Atticus.
“Atticus? Want to-

“No thanks. Youdies carry on.” He cuts in without even ncing up at her.
“Ok…” Valerie frowns but doesn’t say anything more.
There’s something definitely up, but I wait for the women to leave, when Valerie pauses at the door.
‘Will you be ok?‘ she asks, now second–guessing her decision.
‘Yeah.‘
“Don’t take too long. You need your chip removed.” Sebastian says to Zaia.
“I won’t be. Dinner’s waiting for us, anyway.” She walks back over to him, kissing him softly before she
leaves.
He’s still pissed off with the entire situation, which I assumed he would be. His short time at the Sable
made his temper very clear. He’s more like us than he’d ever admit…
Atticus is pacing again, and I just stand there against the wall waiting for the v footsteps to fade.
