Everyone had their own problems but in the end they decided to follow Reina's words. They put their differences aside, they left matters open and simply waited like soldiers before a lethal battle for everything to be put into place. It was true, the witches had eyes all over the city and found them with no difficulty, delivering a black colored liquid stored into a round bottle. The woman that had brought it wore a black hoodie, hiding half of her face. She dropped it on Reina's hands and walked away not sharing a word with them. 

And later, when night fell two things happened at the same time. At first Lun sent a human into the hotel, giving them the very specific instruction to inform them once Mikain had left his room. The human had agreed, having his mind and memories altered with little help of Soran's powers. Purebloods and powerful vampires also had an extra set of abilities, powers that separated them from the rest, used to show their authority and superiority. Kai had them too, Xan also and even Lun but they preferred it to keep them hidden. There was actually a little superstition in BloodBound that if people knew of your special power they could take your soul, using it in powerful magic. It wasn't true of course but the spreading of such superstition helped to stop some obnoxious royals from causing unnecessary fights. 

So after the man had run to the hotel, unaware of what he was actually doing Lun had left the hotel. A black limousine stopped in front of the shabby alley and the vampire had gotten in while Kai and Soran stood outside making sure that he was okay. Of course he wasn't, he made sure to flip them off just before the car started. 

That left Philip. He had been trying to prepare himself all day thinking and thinking how he should proceed with things. This would be his mission, he was all alone in it and he couldn't mess it up. Reina had handed him the potion, him storing it lazily in his jeans' pocket and after a hug from her the werewolf had set off. Kai had looked at him from afar, giving him a faint smile as he walked outside. Philip did not blame him, he was aware that if he touched him, if he found himself standing close to him he would turn into a coward. That way at least his mind was clear. 

He had to go in first, then the human would alert the royal brothers and Soran so they could follow. The young wolf warrior had climbed the stairs, dressed all in black, trying to match the secrecy of the night so he wouldn't be noticed. His footsteps sometimes made noise in the metal staircase and he hissed from time to time, looking manically around him to make sure he wasn't seen. 

He stood at the small platform waiting. The door in front of him would open at any moment, allowing him to enter Mikain's floor. He patted his pocket, wanting to feel the small bottle in it and he exhaled, relieved. He had been worried he would lose it but thankfully it was still there. 

Philip waited for about five minutes, out in the cold, feeling his fingertips slowly turn cold before the door opened, revealing the hypnotized human. It was past midnight, the hotel was drowned in a resting silence and he walked in, leaving the cold behind him. 

"Thanks." he mumbled but the human did not respond. He just closed the door and began walking, expressionless. Philip stood for a while at the entrance of the hall, taking out the potion from his pocket. He held it close, clenching his fist before he scanned every corner of the wide hallway. He checked twice, before he heard the human speak. 

"The target has left his room to visit a man named Hans. The room is empty. He left exactly four and a half minutes ago." he told him as if he was a robot and Philip nodded, finally entering the floor. 

If he said he wasn't nervous he would lie. Every muscle on his body was tense, every breath he took short and while he walked he made sure his footsteps were quiet. He stood in front of the door, finding himself unprepared about how he would open the door. 

He looked at the lock with wide eyes, not believing how he could have forgotten something so important when the human pushed him to the side. He placed a card on the lock and instantly it was unlocked. The werewolf turned his head, wondering but he didn't even think of asking. The man was unconscious but actually conscious at the same time. It was probably an order from Soran, he concluded. 

"The target is missing for six minutes." The human announced, being his own personal timer and Philip gulped. He jumped inside the room, closing the door behind him, not concerning himself what the other man would do. 

He looked around. His body was shaking as he tried to push away the happenings of last time. He took a deep breath, his hazed eyes closed as he felt the weight of the bottle in his hands. 

"You can do this." he told himself and headed towards the bar in Mikain's room. 

Philip grabbed two glasses, pouring the liquid in one of them and then almost filled them to the brim with shaking hands with alcohol. He placed the drugged glass a bit further away, marking it by a scratch it had on the rim and scanned the room. 

All of his senses were heightened, a command he gave to himself to be wary and soon, as he paced in the room, preparing himself for his little act he heard footsteps outside the door. His eyes widened and he blinked frantically. The footsteps were approaching rhythmically, the werewolf recognizing their pace and he sat at the edge of the bed, waiting for Mikain to appear. 

The familiar click was heard and the door opened slowly, revealing a ray of light from the corridor. 

It wasn't Mikain the one who entered through, it was someone else, leaving Philip frozen. 

"What the fcuk are you doing here?" A loud voice screamed and the man was ready to run away. Philip stood up, he couldn't let him alert the others. 

Before he knew it, he was attacking one of his own pack members.
