After the alpha left, Mykel contacted all of his connections to see if they could compile all the of the information, they have regarding vampires that they have in stock. It took them roughly five days to organize all of it into a single file before he contacted the alpha.
Elder Leonides together with the alpha visited the mayor to get the file. "Sorry if it took a little bit long to give you the file. We needed to organize all of the data and information first before I can give it to you." He pointed at the bounded file placed on the table. "All information we collected about them are in there. I don't know if it will be helpful to you but I think you can find relevant information in there."
"Thank you and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here," Amber nodded at the elder's direction. Elder Leonides picked up the file and started to go through it while the alpha and the mayor continued on with their conversation.
"How is the pack and the issue with those rogues?" Mykel asked with concern since according to the alpha, it seems that vampires were involved and if that was the case then it will only make things more complicated than what it is now.
"We are doing what we can and besides the other packs have tightened their security and the special unit are doing their best to investigate the leads we have so far. Once we confirm that vampires are indeed involved in this event, we will have a clearer clue as to why they are doing this." Amber looked at the elder who was busy reading the information then returned her attention to Mykel.
"Vampires, I'm glad that we have included them in our archives. I did not think that a day like this would come when all those almost forgotten information will be useful to us." Up till now, Mykel could not yet believe that there were still vampires that would be willing to work with rogues to create chaos among the packs.
"That's why I want you to be careful Mykel if news that you were helping us get out, then you might be in danger." She had a frown on her face while speaking those words. The safety of her people was still her priority.
"You don't need to worry. I'll be careful and besides I have also upped the security of Cartnan after that conference and I have instructed my people to keep a look out just in case something might happen." Even without Amber's warning, Mykel was a cautious person so after the conference that the alphas held, he did not fall behind and immediately instructed his people to be alert.
Amber nodded and did not answer. It was very like him to move into action which was good. "If any problem may arise in the future contact me immediately."
The room fell into silence and only the sound of paper being flipped could be heard. They were waiting for the elder's assessment on the information if it will be helpful for them of not.
After a long silence, the elder was finally done with the last page then he carefully placed the file on the table. "How was it?" Amber was leaning on the chair and was expecting good news from the elder.
"It has a lot of information and they will be useful for us. Although it only contains a small list of vampires, it was still a big clue for us because from that we can track their subordinates one by one." He was satisfied with what he had read and there was a huge smile on his face while he was nodding his head continuously.
"That's good then. Thank you for the help, Mykel," she stood up and patted Mykel's shoulder. "You can contact Ceurian anytime."
They left the mayor's office while Amber went to visit Xander once again since they will be leaving. They already got what they had come for in Cartnan. She was hoping to have one last dinner with the man before they leave.
"Let's have dinner," she invited him after he was done with his work. Xander looked at her in confusion at the sudden invitation.
"Did something happen?" he stood up from his seat and fixed the documents on his table then picked up his coat.
"Mykel already finished the thing we needed him to do so now we will be returning to Ceurian so I want to have dinner with you before we leave." She was saying all of this with a smile on her face but Xander was not feeling happy at all. He had asked so many times if everything was alright at Ceurian whenever he called to check up on them. He was aware of the problems with those rogues but ever since he left, he had no way of knowing how everything was going on in Ceurian.
"Okay, I'll let Lillian reserve a table for us." Both of them left the office, Xander spoke to Lillian first before they left the building. "Would you like to walk around for a bit?" he asked to make the atmosphere around them a bit relaxed before they go for dinner.
"Let's go," she then walked forward followed by Xander. They went and look around where Xander bought gifts for Amber and for the others in the pack house. She refused at first but he was insistent so she had no choice but to accept his gifts. He also specially picked out many things for the children that he thought they would enjoy.
Amber knew that Xander doesn't lack money but seeing him buy all those things without blinking was impressive but a little bit concerning too. "Do you usually spend money like this?" she asked after one more item was placed on the shopping cart.
Xander looked at her then he understood the meaning behind her words and he laughed, "Don't worry, I don't spend money like this every day. I'm a thrifty person."
Amber could only lift an eyebrow but Xander only shrugged his shoulders and picked one more toy to put in the shopping cart. After that, she remained silent and watched as Xander picked out more things. They ended up with five carts which amounted to a large sum but he was not surprised at the amount and just paid it directly.
After that, Lillian messaged Xander the address of the restaurant that she booked for them. Xander drove to the place and saw that it was a luxurious French restaurant where he had never been before.
"I didn't know that you have this kind of taste," Amber commented after they were seated on the private booth that Lillian had reserved.
He could only sigh and shook his head, "It's my secretary. She has the tendency to go overboard sometimes since I don't like spending that much money on things like this but since you are with me, I don't mind entering a luxurious place like this."
"I could see that. You are very different from other wealthy people I have met. All they wanted were extravagance but you on the other hand don't care about those kinds of things instead you like spending money on other things." She teased but in reality this was one of the things she liked about her mate. He was not a snob nor haughty because of his status in human society and he did not try to brag about that during his stay in the pack. He was actually amiable and her pack members had finally accepted him as a part of their pack even though she did not introduce him as her mate yet, officially.
"That is all thanks to our parents." A fond smile appeared on his face at the memory of their parents that flashed in his mind. "Did you finally solve the problem with those rogues?" he changed the topic instead since he was not ready to talk about his parents yet.
"Not yet, that was the reason why we went to see the mayor but you don't have to worry too much because we can handle it. Focus on your project instead." She casually brushed of the question so Xander knew that she did not want to talk about it.
Since the topic was cut off, they then continued with the plan of having dinner together wherein there was no conversation about the pack came up again.
"How did it go?" that deep voice sounded once again in the empty room.
"We have already commanded to commence the attack. There should be no problem since the special unit arranged to investigate us were not able to find anything useful for now so we can proceed as planned." The person kneeling before him answered in a casual tone.
"It seems that Alpha de Lune visited Mayor Mykel and is currently in Cartnan," he started then he drank some wine while waiting for the kneeling man to answer.
"Yes, it seems that she was there to ask the mayor for some information about vampires," they had been monitoring the alpha's movements ever since she stepped foot inside the city. Although it was a bit difficult, they still managed to know why the alpha had visited.
The man who had just drunk wine grinned, "They're faster than I thought but even so before they could reveal everything, every pack has been wiped out. It's such a pity that they will be too late."
"Are we going to let them keep those files?" the servant asked. Even though his master was sure that they won't be able to do anything, it was still important for them to conceal their identities longer so as not to expose them and hinder their plans.
"Let them be," he waved his hand, "they won't be able to do anything even if they have that information. Besides we have an ace card that we can use against her in the future so no matter what she does to stop this, in the end she will be the one to be destroyed."
After the dinner, Amber invited Xander to their temporary residence and offered him some refreshment. "Since you are here, I want the elder to check your body and the 'darkness' inside it. You've already told me that you did not feel any discomfort but just to be careful, we will check."
Xander did not refuse so the checkup was done smoothly. The elder did not notice anything unusual so there was nothing to be worried about. Xander thanked the man and was glad that he was fine. He then subconsciously touched the part where the mark was imprinted after the checkup.
"As long as the Alpha's mark is in you, there would be no problem because the 'darkness' will remain dormant and would not cause you any problem." The Elder explained after he saw Xander's actions.
"I understand," he caressed his neck before avoiding the elder's gaze and when everything had been turning into an awkward silence a frantic knock sounded on the door.
"What's the matter?" Amber asked after opening to door only to see one of the warriors who were with them with wide eyes.
"Yulian, Yulian had been destroyed."
