Katherine stood next to Alexander while a circle of people formed around them in the main hall. Apart from them, there were two men and three women of the high-class society.
"The last two years the council was busy, but this year there has been less paperwork," the man named John who wore a grey suit from the group of people spoke.
"There were rumours that Reuben has been planning to retire from the head council's position. Is that true?" Travis, one of the aged vampires, asked, tapping his walking stick softly on the ground.
"The man loves his job. I doubt he'll be leaving the position open for anyone anytime soon," Alexander chuckled as he said and few of them nodded their heads in agreement.
"That's true. We haven't heard anything about it. It must be a rumour," John replied with a smile.
"John dear," John's pregnant wife tugged at his hand and whispered something quickly making him nod.
