As they reached the hotel their pack was staying Mika and Philip parted their ways. The young man had decided not to quarrel with him, knowing nothing would change. He felt bitter about what happened and he did believe that Mika had been left off the hook easily but still he was too focused on other things. 

The hotel was enormous, a true skyscraper with soft red carpets and detail tapestry on the walls. It did not have a minimalistic style, it was actually perfect for those who wanted to flaunt their wealth like their Alpha. Killing vampires and selling their part has definitely been a very good source of income in the last few years. His pack had been upgraded, not that it wasn't one of the most powerful packs but now it was clear that Moonshine was the most powerful.

Instead of taking the elevator and having to meet with the expressionless staff they had for just pressing a button he decided to go up the stairs even if the room he was intending to visit was in the upper floors.

As he got up the wide stairs with the golden railings, touching the cold metal with his palm he began thinking. Kai's words were still very clear on his mind. Bloody People. Who could they be? He wondered and his impatience was causing an itch to his whole body. He had never considered himself a curious person and he never really liked to meddle in other's business but two times now he had heard misfortune would find him one way or another and that had to do with Kai. 

No matter how unbothered he was in general when a whole mystery was unraveling before him in the form of a pair of captivating blue eyes he couldn't just sit still. 

After a while of walking and a lot of thinking he finally reached his destination. He stood outside one of the many doors in the hallways checking a few times the number to make sure he was right before he knocked. At first there was no answer and he knocked again, this time a lot louder with a frown on his face.

"I know you're there. Open up!" He exclaimed and rushing footsteps were heard from the inside of the room. Philip heard the handle turn and soon from the little rip the door created he met a pair of annoyed green eyes. He smiled. "Hello there. Didn't wake you up, did I?" He asked the woman behind the door as she opened, letting him in. 

Her room was different from his. In the tones of beige and gold she had a huge queen sized bed with scattered silk pillows on it. The sheets were a complete mess, part of them hanging on the marble ground. She had a small nightstand where she had a glass of half empty wine and a pair of glasses, a book left opened at the top of a pillow.

"You already know the answer why are you asking" the young woman said. 

Philip had come to visit Reina, the third member of the wolf warriors. An eighteen years old girl with stunning long black hair styled in bangs and green eyes that popped even more surrounded by her tanned and flawless skin. She yawned dressed in her pink pajamas and drugged her feet to her nightstand. She grabbed her glasses and wore them, blinking a few times so she could focus.

"You still haven't unpacked?" He asked her, noticed three huge suitcases at the side of the room. They were old looking, made of brown leather and her green eyes looked at them too with a tired stare. 

"We will be leaving soon anyways so why should I bother?" She asked him back and Philip shrugged his shoulders realizing her point. 

In Reina's room also existed a couch made of soft velvet with golden flowers in its design. Seeing as she couldn't lay on the bed she plopped on the couch taking all of the space until Philip smacked her legs, making her move. 

"What? Why are you here? Why are you disturbing my sleep?" She asked him scratching the back of her head. Reina except from a very skilled fighter was also very smart, book smart. She was like a walking encyclopedia remembering everything she might have read only once. That's why Philip had decided to visit her, if someone knew anything it would be her.

"I need your help with something."

"That's unusual." She said.

"I want you to promise me though you won't tell anyone. Not even Mika."

"Oooh it must be spicy. Did you get some kind of magical STD from sleeping around?" She asked, her eyes lighting up.

"You look too excited while saying that but no. I want you to tell me what you know about someone." 

"And who might that be? It's rare of you to want info on other people."

"Kai Avger." Philip mouthed Kai's name. It felt good leaving his lips, like a melody. He enjoyed saying his name, his image appearing before his eyes. "Kai Avger" he repeated mostly because he wanted to hear it.

"Yes, I heard you the first time." Reina said. She took a few seconds to think, her mind was like a maze filled with information, sometimes it got hectic in there. Once though she remembered her beautiful almond shaped eyes widened.

"The prince?"

"Yes. That one." He said and the girl gasped 

"Why would you…"

"Please answer my question." Philip told her with a smile and she sighed. She of course wanted to know more but Philip was not going to make the same mistake he did with Mika. Reina was great but now everything that he felt would be left for himself to judge and deal with. 

"Well, okay. He is the third son of the Kai Monarchy. Basically vampires, the ones who still live in Bloodbound the little vampire capital have a royal family. The first ones that got cursed the same way we have a few alpha's like that. So there is a royal family. He is the youngest son, he has an older brother and an older sister. He was a scholar at the order of the Night I think? I don't remember the name well, it's an Academy for the rich of some sort. He used to date a guy named Soran who also of royal status…."

"Wait….wait did you just say Soran? How do you know that?" Philip asked with a frown.

"The part about dating it's just rumors, you know the monarchy two hundred years ago did not accept homosexuality. I don't know what they're doing now to be honest but yeah. After that there is not much actually. Just that he killed someone and disappeared." She said.

"Who did he kill?" Philip asked. Maybe that was the reason why he was a fugitive, he thought. It could be some royal vampire or something and they are after him to punish him. It didn't make much sense though, Kai was the prince he could have gotten away with practically anything. Was there something he was missing?

"That I do not know." She said and shrugged her shoulders.

"I see...also, one more question." Philip said.

"Spill it so I can go back to sleep." Reina said but she had a small smile on her face. She actually loved it when people asked her for information.

"Do you know what the...Bloody People are?" He asked her. She took her usual seconds, remembering.

"Why would you even want to know about them. Philip...are you involved in anything dangerous?" She asked him, filled with concern.

"No! It's just that I heard it from somewhere and got curious, that's all"

Reina didn't seem to believe him. She adjusted her glasses and sighed.

"Are you safe?" She asked again and Philip gave her a comforting smile.

"Yes. Don't worry."

"Okay then…the Bloody People are…" Reina started saying when an aggressive knock was heard on her door. She flinched surprised as both of them looked towards the source of the sound.

"Open up. I know Philip is there." 

That sounded like something Mika would say. It wasn't him though. The voice was deep and strict. Both of them recognized it instantly. "Open up!" He shouted again and Reina stared at her friend with wide eyes.

"What the hell did you do that the Alpha is calling you like this?" She asked him.

Philip had no idea.
