[Jane's P.O.V.]
It was finally over. I was a little surprised when Alpha found us, revealing that we had been brought to the Hungarian capital, Budapest. Based on what I've read in vampire stories, I was expecting Nicholas's lair to be somewhere in Romania since it has a famous vampire resort.
Nicholas had been killed on his own turf by Rose's wolf Charlotte. Now, his corpse lay headless, rotting and stinking since no one could collect his body - his subordinates had already been eliminated and burned to ashes.
I was also shocked when the Council of Elders' troops arrested a werewolf named Frankie - or rather, that he had turned himself in on the grounds that Nicholas had captured and asked him to work for him. He was being interrogated now but the rest of us, especially Mona, felt a little suspicious.
