Andreas's POV
In the aftermath of Phillip's demise, his final rites were conducted as befitting a ruler. His body underwent cremation, and the resulting ashes found a resting place in a dedicated room within his estate. Following the ceremony, the women associated with him returned to their families, and the omega wolves serving at the estate were promptly relieved of their duties.
A week had passed since the arrival of the vampires. The persistent absence of their return heightened my anticipation, signaling that their prolonged delay was indicative of strategic planning on their part.
One evening, while in the company of Isabella, I sensed the approach of a group towards the mansion. Alarmed, I decided to investigate and was surprised to find the old werewolves alongside Alphas from the other eight packs. Uncertain of their purpose, I hesitated to welcome them.
