"Where is Jack?" asked Circe as Paul entered the mansion.
"Dead, your hunter killed him," said Paul.
"And you're still alive, why did he let you go?" asked Circe.
"He wanted me to deliver a message to you, he said that you can't scare him and he's confident that he'll beat you," said Paul.
"If you want to regain my favour you'll have to kill him, its obvious now, I should have seen it. The psychic is to become his bloodmate, it's a physical and emotional bond that binds two of our kind together we have slightly different blood. You have a much harder job to do then," said Circe.
"Oh and Paul you're not allowed to feed for two days since you failed me on this,"
"Yes my lady," said Paul.

"That vile bitch, she's going to get our husbands killed. We have to do something about this," said Amy.
"I know Amy, but how are we going to do that? Steven and Joseph do everything she says, its like she has some sort of weird vamp thing over them," said Megan.
"I did overhear Marcus talking to Cole, he was saying something about powers we'll be getting," said Amy.
"What did he say?" asked Megan.
"We'll have the power over men like Circe has, so maybe we can find out what Circe is doing to them and break that influence so we can have our husbands back," said Amy.
"That doesn't help one bit if we don't have that ability yet Amy, lets talk to him. See what he knows?" asked Megan.
"Bad idea he's been walking around like a zombie for a while now, I think Circe found out and put a stop to it, she's probably also watching Cole. She's the head of our bloodline so she'd be able to read our thoughts," said Amy.
"Well there's only one way to do this then, we have to go out and test it, we need to be able to use this ability to our advantage before Circe sends out our husbands and gets them killed," said Megan.
"Sounds good, I need to feed anyway," said Amy.

"Are you alright Karen?" asked Julius as he sat down next to her.
"No, this is such a massive change for me, some how the visions stopped coming. I had this strange feeling of blindness. I should have been able to see what was going to happen to you and then what was going to happen here," said Karen.
"It's not your fault, Circe is most likely clouding your ability to see, she can cast a mental smokescreen over an area to shield people or places against psychic visions. You won't get anything from them," said Julius.
"What's going to happen with you? Have you fed?" asked Karen.
"I have, I filled up on a cow I found in a ditch. It would have died anyway it at least stopped the cravings so I could think properly then I found myself just heading towards you. These instincts are hard to get used to, also I don't have to feed on humans. I can do just fine on animal blood I just need more," said Julius.
"We need to figure out what we are going to do next they'll be looking for us. I need your help Karen, I can't use some of this stuff now. Silver burns me just from being close to it, I haven't even been turned a day yet so I'm very vulnerable to these things,"
"What do you need help with?" asked Karen
"The cross will be effective against her fledglings, sanctified holy items from any religion will do just fine though. You still need to protect yourself against them, even from me. The beast seems to be sated for now but I have no way of controlling what just happened,"
"How are we going to do this? She's your sire how are you able to resist her?" asked Karen.
"Sheer willpower, she's a very strong vampire. What she has planned will not sit will for anybody. Victor Delgado is the master of Circe's family, she was exiled after a power struggle. She plans to overthrown them with her fledglings, she knows a lot about them and Marcus Santos is an excellent hunter he would know the best way to get in, he was the first hunter on her trail and we've kept in contact. She needs to be taken care of, she's far to dangerous because if her plan succeeds she'll have control over the wealthiest and most powerful of the Families in this country,"
"Marcus is latin?" asked Karen.
"Yeah, you saw him in one of those visions?" asked Julius.
"Before I even knew what they were," said Karen.
"I know how to get in there, before I sealed that connection I was connected to them. None of them really want to be there, there's two married couples, a security guard and a pissed off shapeshifter,"
"The security guard is the one who came here?"
"Yeah, the women don't like it and they'll probably be of use to use when we go in there,"
"Of course they wouldn't, from what you told me those Venus are very seductive,"
