It took several hours for us to get to New York state and we came to a small airport outside of Rochester, New York and there was a car already waiting for us on the tarmac.
We got into the car and it took us straight to a hotel.
When we got there we were shown to the top floor and Wesley was in the room next to mine and the bellboy showed me to my room which was a penthouse.
We had the only two penthouses in the whole hotel.
It was massive and it seemed a little extreme for people who were only going to be staying
here for a couple of days.
I guess he wanted to give me a good send off before he did whatever he was planning on
doing tomorrow.
Once the bellboy left I walked around the penthouse and saw all the luxuries that it had to
offer but then my phone went off.
DEAN – Did you arrive in one piece?
ME – Yeah. Meeting the council tomorrow. How about you? Anything happening?
DEAN – No. We suspect that they will attack while you’re in the meeting. So we can’t contact
you.
ME–That sounds about right. Wesley is doing everything to hide his thoughts from me. He’s thinking of everything except the meeting.
DEAN – What has he been thinking about?
ME – Nothing that a daughter should know about his father doing to his mate.
DEAN – I don’t know what to say. He’s doing that on purpose because he knows you can read
minds.
ME – I’m aware. Just be careful and I’ll let you know when we are leaving for the meeting.
DEAN – You be careful too. We’ve got everything covered here. Dad even called in a bunch of favors that are owed to him.
ME – Good.
As soon as I put the phone away I made a coffee and I sat on the balcony to drink it.
I was looking out at the view and it was really beautiful being up this high.

CHAPTER 67
I know that winter was coming on, but it felt so much warmer here than it did in Alaska. It would eventually snow here as well, but not for a while yet. Alaska was preparing for it to snow any day now.
I looked over to the side where Wesley’s Penthouse was but he was inside and the doors were
closed.
These damn hotel rooms were soundproof so I couldn’t hear anything that was happening in
there.
He wasn’t coming to see me so I knew that he had to be on the phone talking to someone.
When I went back inside I closed the door and I went to the bedroom and I laid down on the
bed, staring up at the ceiling thinking.
Wesley had already made it clear that the supernatural council had people planted all over this town as their own security so I wasn’t allowed to leave the hotel. At least not until the
meeting tomorrow.
I knew that this was going to be one boring ass night. I didn’t have anyone to talk to and I
didn’t have anything to do.
I did bring my laptop but that was about it. I could try and do some more research but I was sick of trying to find out information on the supernatural council.
They kept everything very close to the vest.
They didn’t let anyone know how their operation worked.
I was staring at the ceiling for ages when Wesley knocked on the door and invited me down to the restaurant in the hotel for dinner.
So I went with him and we sat towards the back of the room and ordered something to eat.
“Are you alright?” Wesley asked.
“Yeah. There’s just a lot on my mind.” I said.
“Yeah. I bet there is. There’s nothing to worry about. They just want to meet you. That’s all
there is.” He said.
“I hope so. But there’s nothing I know about them. And that makes me nervous.” I said.
“Yeah. I know. But they aren’t as scary as you think.” He said.
I just nodded my head and looked around the restaurant.
While I was sitting there I noticed a couple of people scattered around the restaurant that kept

I didn’t have to read their minds to know that they were only here to keep an eye on me. And I started keeping an eye on them.
It didn’t take long until Wesley noticed and he started looking around as well.
“Don’t worry about them.” Wesley said.
“Are they with you?” I asked.
“Not really. They work for the council. I think they are just making sure that we are behaving ourselves.” He said.
“Well, that’s not intimidating at all.” I said, being sarcastic.
“I know. I’m sorry but this is how things go around here.” He said.
When I finished dinner I couldn’t wait to get back up to my room and as soon as I went inside I locked the door.
I went to the bathroom and I had a shower and I got dressed for bed.
After that I went to the kitchen area to make a coffee and I sat at the table with my laptop.
I started searching through all the files that I had compiled on a lot of different people and started trying to search through all of them. Trying to make sense of what I was reading.
I knew that something was going to happen while we were here. And the triplets needed to
stay back and defend their pack from the impending attack.
I didn’t get to bed until late that night and I was tossing and turning the whole night.
When I got up in the morning I couldn’t even eat because I was so nervous about today, but I got dressed into a red blouse, black pants and black boots.
I did my hair and put on a little bit of makeup to look respectable and when it was time, Wesley came knocking on my door.
I grabbed my bag and I went to answer it and he was standing there in a very expensive three–piece suit and I closed the door behind me.
There was a car waiting for us at the front door of the hotel and it took us 20 minutes to get to the supernatural council.
We pulled up in front of a very old–looking yellowish sandstone building with all sorts of different symbols carved into it. One representing a witch, one a werewolf, one a fae and one a
vampire.

Obviously the symbols were subtle enough that humans couldn’t detect what they were. But I
looked over at Wesley who had come to stand next to me with a big smile on his face.
I stood there on the sidewalk staring up at the building in shock, with butterflies going crazy around my stomach.
Wesley walked up behind me and put his hand on my back and he led me inside.
We walked to the reception desk, and she allowed us to go right through. They were waiting
for us.
So we walked down the hallway to a flight of circular stairs and we walked up them until we got to the top of the building and we walked down the long hallway with ancient–looking
paintings all over the walls.
I was impressed by everything that I had been seeing so far, but when I saw the massive mahogany double doors at the end of the hallway, I had to stop and take a couple of deep breaths to contro
