Chapter 176: Rouse The Coven



He was now effectively immortal, with two wives and one fuck buddy. Yes, he wasn\'t the true owner of the wealth he currently had but he was rich. He had a mansion of his own and a car he could only dream of a year before.

He smiled to himself as he turned the page.

The door opened and Gen walked in, sporting her customary leather jacket. She shuffled to him and plopped into the space beside him before nestling into him.

He raised his arm to accommodate her, smiling at the sight. "Tired?" He asked.

Gen gave a hum, nestling deeper into him. "Not really." She answered.

There was a comfortable silence as Ezra read his paper. Before long, he finished the article he had been reading, setting the paper on the small table beside the couch.

"So," he turned to Gen, "what did you find?"

Gen raised a brow at him. "We\'re doing this here? Now?"

"Where else would we do this?" Ezra asked.

"Shouldn\'t we discuss this somewhere private?"

"Don\'t worry about that." Ezra smiled as he kissed her forehead. "It\'s just us here."

Gen raised her head and looked around before settling down with a huff.

"What did you find?" Ezra asked again.

"First, I thought Veran had skipped town, but that didn\'t seem right." Gen hummed. "He wouldn\'t be so quick to abandon all the wealth he had gathered."

Ezra chuckled. "We vampires are a materialistic bunch, aren\'t we?"

"Well, when you have immortality at your fingertips, money has to be a constant companion, don\'t you think?" Gen smirked. "As for Veran, I had no leads, so I decided to trace the money."

Ezra laughed. "That\'s a betrayal from a long-time companion."

Gen laughed along before continuing. "So, I tracked the purchases from his hidden accounts which I was able to find by trawling through Ascension Capital\'s documents and investments."

"I was able to triangulate the area where he is currently hiding out and you won\'t believe where it is if I told you."

"I\'m pretty sure I will." Ezra smirked.

"Get this." Gen sat up, a grin on her face. "Veran\'s hiding out in the middle of Griffin\'s territory. Right in front of his doorstep."

Ezra burst into hysterical laughter. "You\'re... you\'re right... I don\'t believe you." He wheezed.

"I guess the old saying is true." Gen laughed. "The hardest things to find are the things hiding under your nose."

After a while, Ezra calmed down. "Do we know his exact location?"

"No. But I was able to pinpoint the three possible buildings he could be in. He has to be in one of them." She proceeded to give him the address of the three buildings.

Ezra thought about it for a moment. "Can we capture them ourselves?"

"Unlikely." Gen answered. "We\'ll have to attack the three buildings simultaneously and we don\'t have the manpower to do that."

Ezra sighed. "I was hoping we could capture them ourselves. Gey Griffin off my back."

"It\'s either we do this with Griffin\'s help or Griffin does it himself. We don\'t have the resources to pull this off on our own." Gen pointed out.

"That\'s true. But I won\'t be reporting this now." Ezra concluded. "Dig more into this. There\'s no reason to tell Griffin at the moment. Let him stew for a few more days."

"Is this a tantrum?" Gen laughed.

"I prefer to call it selective information transmission." Ezra smirked. "Maybe this time, Griffin will learn to at least, appreciate the effort I put in to his tasks."

"And what about me?" Gen leaned forward sultrily, giving Ezra a view of her breast from the top of the tshirt she wore underneath the jacket. "Don\'t I deserve a reward?"

Ezra laughed, abandoning his plans to continue reading his newspaper. "Come here, you." He dragged a laughing Gen to himself and gave her a long, deep kiss. "I guess we\'ll be here all night."

As the duo continued their pleasure filled activities, a figure nodded to herself.

It had been a good call to sneak back in. When they thought they were alone, they would spill more secrets and now, she had valuable information.

With a twist, natalia teleported away. She appeared in the teleportation room in Griffin\'s sanctuary. This time, there was no one waiting. After all, her visit was unexpected.

She strode to the throne room where she knew Griffin would be at this time of day, nodding to her fellow wife who now manned the assistant\'s desk.

She swept into the room to see X giving Griffin a report. She dismissed the masked man from her mind, walking straight to her lover. "Griffin." She immediately stepped past the kneeling man, climbed the dias and sat on Griffin\'s lap.

"My love." Griffin gave her a quick kiss. "What\'s the matter?"

"I bring information. Valuable information."

Griffin\'s eyes narrowed at her words.

"The Mattens have discovered the probable location of the Blackthornes." Natalia stated, watching as Griffin blinked in surprise.

"And why is Ezra not the one to give me this information."

"He wants to appear more valuable in your eyes or some tripe like that." Natalia almost yawned. "He wanted to attack by himself and bring them to you but he doesn\'t have the resources."

"And I assume that we do?" Griffin laughed at Natalia\'s nod. "I guess I can forgive him for that."

"Let\'s capture Blackthorne ourselves." Natalia urged. "We still don\'t know Ezra\'s intentions. This will let us bypass him and get them without his help."

Griffin hummed at her words. He took a moment to think on it before he made his decision. "Very well. Let\'s do this."

Griffin stood up, carrying Natalia in his arms. He looked towards the masked man kneeling before him. "X."

"My lord."

"Rouse the coven." Griffin grinned, displaying his fangs. "I\'ll be leading this operation myself."
