The supernatural community in France is on high alert. Two thousand vampire clan leaders were gathering in one place to figure out what to do about the recent uprising. Unexplainable killings, the countless missing human reports, all the new vampires running amuck around Europe and Asia as if we didn't have laws. I was here as clan leader for Vladimir's Coven, something I was never happy about. Apparently, he and his clan's elders decided without my knowledge long ago that in the event that he dies or steps down, I was to take over the Coven. I had no desire to rule a Coven of fifteen hundred vampires but I would have rather endure a thousand death than let Vla down. I took on the role and worked hard to be deserving of Vls's person. They didn't need me around for day-to-day things so I still got to travel and work.
