Kathy was surprised as to where her nose led her to. She stared at the statue up front and then, the words on the wall that spelt 'City Hall'. Although her day had been awful so far, this seemed to lighten up her mood as she tried to stop herself from bursting into laughter
'To think the second strongest demon general, Xavier Grey would be working at City Hall' Kathy thought 'A fox phantom from Hailey's side, this is almost too hilarious' she shook off the thought and started scaling the stairs 'However, the main reason I'm here is for a refill. I need his seed and dreams to help the Princess' she continued on until she was at the receptionĀ area and staring at two women in office wear
"Hello there, what can I do for you?" one of the women with the name tag 'Harper', asked with a fake smile
"Xavier Grey. Tell him to get his butt out here or let me in" Kathy said
"Mr Grey doesn't need someone like you coming to look for him" the other female with the name tag 'Rea' said
"I'm his friend, Kathy" Kathy said
"Oh" Harper said before picking up her phone and dialing Xavier's office phone. Before she could even speak, she heard from the phone
"Let her in"
Harper was surprised as she dropped the phone and excused herself from the reception desk "Please follow me" she said and Kathy smiled at Rea before following Harper, who was leading her out
Rea bit her lip in frustration 'That woman is just another one of his bed warmers. He'll be done with her in minutes' she smiled at the thought

Meanwhile, Kathy stood in front of the door to Xavier's office while Harper stood outside. To Harper's surprise, Xavier himself came to open the door for Kathy
"It really is you" Xavier said. He was slightly on the darker side with his baby pink suit shirt hugging his muscles nicely, a black tie loosely around his neck and black dress pants. He had ruby fusion hair that was cut straight to his shoulders and amber eyes.
He further opened the door before leaning against the doorframe which make him look sexier than he already was
"So, what brings you here, Kathy?" Xavier asked as her fingers gently held his tie before clutching it
"We need to talk in private" Kathy said as she let herself into his office and pulled him along by his tie "I need you to do something for me"
Xavier smiled before going along and shutting the door behind him. She finally let go of his tie and rested against the table in his office
"So, what is it you need me for?" Xavier asked
"Can you not play dumb with me?" Kathy said through gritted teeth "You knew that James and Laura..."
Xavier's smile completely disappeared as he went over and sat in his seat "James and Laura are dead. Along with Elias, Scott and Mackenzie. The Princess too" he said
"The Princess is alive" she said as she turned to look at him "She's in the spirit world. That seed and her bloodline seems to be mixing together too. I could tell from the magic power"
"Judging from where this is going....you came for a refill using my seed" Xavier said "You can use any other man to get what you want and be done with it. There are very few men who can resist you in this town. So, why me?"
"Other than the refill, I need you to come with me to the spirit world at the end of today" Kathy said "Two years should have passed by then and the process I'm about to go through needs my total concentration. Any disturbance and she'll die"
Xavier stood up from his seat and walked around the table before picking up his phone and calling the front desk
"Cancel every other thing I have to do today. I'm gonna be busy" Xavier said before dropping the phone "How much of my seed do you need?"
"Enough to last three days" Kathy said
"That really will take almost the whole day. I'll be dry when you're done with me" Xavier said surprised "We better get started" he added as he lowered his head and kissed her. She kissed him back while she activated some of her powers; her eyes began to glow and her horns were sprouting out from her head.
Outside, Harper who accompanied Kathy was still standing there staring at the door 'What are they doing in there?' she wondered as she heard something crashing down in the office and the next thing she heard were Kathy's moans coming from the office. Her face turned red, she made the sign of the cross, and then, she left.

Southern Werewolf Estate
Zuri was on her way to turn in her report to Marcus and Rebecca when she noticed a small black mouse on the ground, staring at her. What was even more abnormal, was the green color of the mouse's eyes that stared into her red eyes. Before she knew it, the eyes of the mouse turned red and it exploded.
At the same time, several other areas in the estate were experiencing the same thing. Marcus and Rebecca had to come out from their mansion along with the maids and butlers
"What is going on here?" Rebecca mumbled as she looked around and noticed Zuri on the ground with a large burn wound which didn't look like it was healing. Marcus and Rebecca were both at her side as she was panting and wincing
"Zuri, can you hear me?" Marcus asked
"This wound is really bad" Rebecca said as she gathered water around her hands and placed it on Zuri's body. Zuri flinched as Rebecca began to poured her magic into her hands.
The whole of Zuri's front side, had been hit by the blast. Due to using magic on time, only her legs up to her stomach and the side of her face had been burnt.
"Spread out. All of you" Marcus shouted to the maids and butlers "There are a lot of werewolves who can't fight....and a couple of others from the Fallens. Protect them and find out the damn number of the attackers. Now" he shouted and they were on the move "Rebecca"
"I can't seem to heal her" Rebecca said "Something is preventing me"
"Forget about her injury. Louisa will handle it" Marcus said "The injured and anyone who can't fight will have to be moved to the underground safehouse. We need to handle the attackers" he said as another chain of explosions went off. Rebecca stared at Zuri for a while before she stopped using magic on her and followed Marcus into the eye of the storm.

Kathy opened her eyes to see she was in Xavier's office with his suit jacket being the only thing to cover her nakedness as she laid on the office sofa.
"Finally awake" Xavier said while looking out the window "You were calling out for Edward in your sleep" he turned to look at her "Kind of hurts my feelings after what we just did"
"What time is it?" Kathy asked as she sat up while holding the suit jacket to her chest
"Eleven in the night" he replied back "You missed the fireworks"
"Fireworks?" she mumbled as she snapped her fingers and her clothes were back on before she ran to stand next to him. She could see from a distance...the southern forest was on fire.
"The civil war has entered its part two" Xavier said with a chuckle as he handed her a plate of cookies "Want some?"
She silently took the plate from him and began to crunch down on the cookies as her eyes started to glow and she looked around "Seems like everyone is fine. Though, Marcus and Rebecca look quite bang up and there are quite the number of casualties" she said
"They've been at it for hours. Reinforcements keep arriving from the North and Marcus hasn't been able to call for back up from the East and West. Even for a werewolf with a lot of energy, it's pretty hard with all those numbers" Xavier said calmly as he grabbed a cup of coffee from the table and sipped it "From here, it looks just like fourteen years ago. Leon...I wonder what changed him. Everything about him, from the very beginning....went up in smoke and this happened. He even dared to kill the last dragon keepers who kept balance"
"It's almost as though he wants devils to pour into the real world and disturb the balance" Kathy said "That doesn't seem like the type of thing Leon would do. Even though I know that....I can't get the fact out of my head that he burnt Edward to ashes right in front of my very eyes"
"It seems like Leon still can't handle rejection" Xavier chuckled "When we all refused to follow his command, he killed two of the twelve and turned us into ten. He stole the souls of four of them and implanted devils who couldn't materialize into them. And now, we remain six"
"He probably wanted the Kendell family's bloodline but as you can see, Marcus probably said no. He doesn't seem to understand, that many were loyal to Reese and Hailey"
"So..." Xavier started as he took another sip of his coffee "...how are we going to get passed that army?"
"We'll simply clear a couple of them on the way. Nice way to let out all of my pent up frustration" Kathy said as she finished the cookies and kept the plate back on his table "I'm still in mourning after all" just as she finished saying that, Xavier dropped his empty mug on the table
"For me, it'll just help me pass the time. We still have one month left" Xavier pointed out as he walked away from the window and picked up his gold wristwatch from the table
"That's gonna break if you go into battle with it" Kathy giggled as she tossed his suit jacket at him and he put it on
"It'll be fine. I won't even need to use my powers a lot on them" Xavier said as he grabbed his keys while walking her out
"Speaking of which, how many tails do you have now?" Kathy asked already outside the office as Xavier finished locking up and they started walking down the hall
"Six. Three more to go" Xavier said "I can only control up to five. My body is slower than my powers so using six is almost suicide for me" he said while they walked passed the reception area and noticed the two women at the reception desk were still there
