Crystal’s step parents were seated in the large dark sitting room, they were in Count Rohan’s Castle, they had actually known the vampire from beginning as the both parties needed something from each other.
Crystal’s step parents wanted to attain the highest position in the werewolf society, while Count Rohan needed Crystal’s special powers to secure his tribe from falling into the hands of his illegitimate half-brother, Draco.
“Martha, please call him and let him know that we are here,” her mate, the Alpha of the red moon Pack said to her.
She nodded and grabbed her handbag to get her phone, but was surprised it was nowhere to be found. She had misplaced it.
“What is wrong?” Phillip queried.
“I… I think I left my phone behind,” she replied with a worried face.
“But you made use of it right before we left, check properly.” He advised.
She searched over and over again but it was nowhere to be found.
“Don’t worry then, we should just wait for him because I don’t have his number,” Phillip replied with a disappointed face.

Alpha Phillips and his Luna had been playing games with Crystal from day one, they had taken her away from Pasadena on purpose because they wanted to take her special powers, but unfortunately they were unable to.
So when Count Rohan came to see them months ago, he offered to pay them a large sum of money in exchange for Crystal.
He was honest with them on why he needed her special powers. Crystal’s step parents had something else in mind, something they needed more than money.
They asked the vampire to help them attain the highest position in the Werewolf society, in exchange for Crystal’s special powers.
Count Rohan did not trust the middle-aged couple, so he asked them to fulfill their own part of the deal first, then in return he would help them rise above the Blood Moon Pack.
Since Crystal’s step parents were desperate, they agreed to his demands. However Crystal had no idea who Rohan was at that moment, so they could not just go straight to her and ask her to meet with the Vampire.
They wanted the two of them to familiarize first before encouraging her to accept Rohan, then after the two were mated, they would release Crystal’s powers and let the vampire take it from her.
After which they hoped he would help them achieve their goals. They kicked off their initial plan by arranging a meeting for the two of them.
It was their plan to have Crystal attacked by a thug and then he comes to the rescue and from there forms a relationship with her, but Crystal’s love affair with Alpha Logan Stewart stood as an obstacle to their plans as Crystal showed no interest in the vampire.
Then there was a change in the original plan when Crystal made a deal with them to convince Logan to awaken their wolf clan sword if they released her werewolf powers.
The deal was an attractive one and Martha could not resist, they decided to forfeit the Vampire’s offer for the meantime and get their ancient wolf sword awakened.
At least that would get them up to the second position, as the new Dawn Pack Alpha bloodline was the second most powerful in the werewolf clans.
They had finally achieved that but they were still not content, so they came back to the Young vampire lord hoping he would help them get to the first position.

Count Rohan walked into the large sitting room with his hands folded behind his back, he looked towards the werewolves and noticed the sword wrapped in clothes and he smiled.
“I see that you have got the ancient sword awakened, congratulations.” He said in a plain voice and then took a seat at the other end.
“That is right, now we would need your support to overpower the Blood Moon pack and seize their lunar moonstone. That would make us the most powerful in the Werewolf society,” Phillips said greedily.
“If I must support you, then you know the price,” Rohan said in a cold voice.
“Yes. You want Crystal as a mate so that you can have her special powers, we would give her to you as soon as our work is done.” Martha replied with an evil smile on her face.
“And how can I be sure that you would keep to your word, how do you intend to convince her to be my mate?” He queried.
“I know we have failed you before, but it wasn’t entirely our fault then and things have changed a lot now.” Phillips said.
“Really? What is different now?” Rohan queried and placed one of his legs above the other, with his eyes fixed on the werewolves.
“Isn’t it obvious? We have the ancient sword of Selena and it is Awakened. Also, Logan and Aidan are Crystal’s weaknesses and Logan is weak at the moment, we just have to threaten her with one of them and she’s all yours,” Martha said with a smirk.
“Hmm… That is interesting but like I asked earlier, how do I know that I can trust you?” He queried.
Phillips raised the sword and the vampire repositioned immediately, being prepared for any possible threat.
He knows very well why the sword existed in the first place. The goddess had given it to the werewolves to help them wipe off their rivals, the vampires in the first Werewolf-Vampire war.
The sword lost its strength eventually and fell in the hands of the Red Moon Pack.
“Relax Rohan, I just want to take an oath with it,” Philip said and the vampire then sat properly.
He had feared that the Werewolf wanted to attack him.
Phillips took an oath to fulfill their own side of the deal as soon as Rohan helped them achieve their goals, only then was the vampire satisfied. He knew that no one goes back on an oath made with the ancient sword, unless they wanted to be destroyed by the merciless goddess.
“Alright, I guess we have an agreement. Prepare your pack warriors and assemble with them tomorrow, I will join you with my vampire army and together we will take down the Blood Moon Pack. We would snatch their lunar moon stone from them,” Rohan announced.
The couple looked at each other and smiled, then they turned back to the vampire.
“Alright Rohan, that would be a good plan. We will do as you have said, I will lead them to war alongside you tomorrow. With this sword and support of your tribe, I know victory will be ours,” Philips stated confidently.
“That is correct, feel free to leave at any time. I will keep in contact,” Rohan said and stood up, then he headed to his inner Chambers.
