Lucian was taken out every night to transform into his Lycan form and run around, just to be free in the wilderness.
Also just like everyone thought Viktor started to use Lucian's blood to create new Lycans.
Also, Hadrian started noticing Sonja and Lucian's interest in each other.Sonja was slightly paranoid like her father, she had doubts about Hadrian mainly because of the things her father drilled into her head.
But she got along with Hadrian over time, he was her trainer after all mainly because of Amelia pushing it, while Viktor thought he would get more information about Hadrian from his daughter.
Hadrian looked down at a panting Sonja and said"Come one, get up."
Sonja got up and replied, "You are making this hell for me."
Hadrian smirked and said, "You wanted me to train you and I am not one to hold back with such things."
Sonja grumbled while Hadrian questioned, "You have a century free from your father's overprotective care.So whats your plan?"
Sonja nodded, even though she is a very powerful deathdealer.Her father didn't allow her to go on missions to hunt the other werewolves a lot.It annoyed her to no end,she knew he wanted her to take the council position, when the time comes.
A part of Sonja considered Hadrian more of a father figure than Viktor, himself.When she first met Lucian and Hadrian,she could tell the bond between Lucian and Hadrian is nothing like the bond she had with her father,what she had with her father was a fragile bond with nothing like them.
Sonia with excitement answered"Finally, I can take the mission to kill the werewolves."
These are from William's kind,they are continuously attacking the areas the human nobles hold.It was the Death dealers duty to keep the humans safe from werewolves,in return nobles provide them with silver.That is used against the Werewolves.
Hadrian once warned these nobles about vampires and werewolves, he told them to move away.But the nobles were arrogant and believed this was their land and they wouldn't have any issues.Well, when Viktor arrived and pretty much conquered them.None of these idiots could do anything and now there decendants go through this trouble.
Hadrian grinned and asked," How is everything with Lucian?"
Sonja blushed and thought"So he noticed."
Sonja ignored the teasing and walked away,Sonja and Lucian have been getting closer with time, while Hadrian waved goodbye to her and walked away to meet Marcus, who was awoken from his slumber, just 2 weeks ago.
This was the Chain,it follows a never-ending rotary cycle that involves the three Elders taking turns in ruling over the Vampire Coven and it is seen to be established that while one rules, the other two slumber in coffin-shaped tubes hidden within the various headquarters of the coven.
Marcus and Hadrian were discussing the creation of the new race Lycan's, Marcus in annoyance said to Hadrian"Is he crazy, I mean creating an immortal race to be slaves won't end very well."
Marcus was very knowledgeable and traveled a lot, thus he knew the oppressed will always rise up and fight the oppressor,It was the truth.
Hadrian nodded and replied, "He is paranoid about me and wants this immortal slave army to intimidate me."
Marcus scoffed and muttered, "Like that would work."
Marcus knew Viktor has been trying a lot to isolate any kind of power or influence he has, Amelia normally followed Viktor.But she is keeping it to herself, she even talked with him about why he hated William.
Flashback
Amelia was meeting Hadrian and Marcus to clear the air about William.Amelia was slightly nervous about Hadrian,but soon spoke up"You must understand, William and his kind have killed many of my coven members and students. So it is hard for me to show any kind of sympathy for you or him."
Marcus reluctantly nodded, after all he had seen the damage William caused during his rampage.
Amelia then added "I understand it is not fully his fault, so I will support you.If you find a cure for him."
Hadrian shook his head and said, "You know, Viktor won't allow this, right?"
Amelia nodded and replied"I know, but Viktor has lost some of his control after what happened between you too.If you use this chance, then Marcus could gain more influence among the council members.After all, many of them are curious about your power and some want to get close to Alexander Corvinus himself."
Marcus looked at Hadrian, who nodded.
