24 Undercurren (1/2)

”Relax, they are safe. They were smart enough to avoid vampires until now, unlike some other werewolves.” Said Spider, staring at Michael.

Michael sighed and sat down again.

”Good.”

”Not really, they must stay low. Don't worry Hawk will help them.”

”Can you help me with something?”

”What exactly?”

”Can you do something to let my brother join my class?”

”You don't have a brother.” Spider turned his head to one of the monitors around him.

”If you have the information about me in front of you, you will see that I was adopted.”

”Ah yes here it is, wow you have a brother? Doesn't matter what's his name?”

”Jonas.”

”I need his full name.”

”I don't know it, wait a minute I will send him a message.”

Michael used his phone to send the message and Jonas answered a few seconds later.

”Jonas Millenio.”

”Alright consider it done, he can go tomorrow to the school.”

”Thank you Spider, how can I contact you?”

”My number is already saved on your contact list.”

”What? How?”

Spider laughed, ”Have you already forgotten? Professional hacker?”

”.....Yeah right.”

”Haha I will contact you if something comes up, see you then Alpha.”

”Wait...he hang up on me.”

Michael stared speechless at his phone. He turned off the lights and went to sleep.

An elderly man with a long white beard read a letter and frowned. He was sitting on a archaic armchair, changing the position of his legs. There were many old looking books around him and the place looked messy.

Two woman clad in robes stood silently beside him like statues.

The one to his right asked with concern. ”Did something happen , Elder Pelion?”

The elder didn't show any reaction. The woman didn't mind, continuing to stay beside him.

His gaze moved away from the letter, letting it slip past his fingers. The letter caught fire while it was falling down, burning to ashes before it reached the floor.

”Susan Millenia send me a report, she wrote that that useless brat doesn't want to come back to our circle. He wants to study like a normal human.....”

Both women nodded silently.

”They didn't find any clues about the origin that caused the magical disturbance. Something fishy seems to be going on there.”

The old man lifted his hand that had big rings on each finger and a glass filled with wine floated into his grasp.

”I want the both of you to go to that town....Palmer Falls is its name. Watch them closely and immediately report to me if something isn't right.”

”Understood.” Said both woman at the same time.

They moved in sync and left the room without making any sounds.

The emotionless eyes of the Elder stared at the wine inside his glass, before taking a sip.

”What do you mean you can't find that b*tch?” Shouted a young man.

He kicked one of the two kneeling men that were scared sh*tless, sending him crashing against the wall.

The man tried to stand up, but fell back. Spilling blood all over the floor.
