Xavier.

　　I stood up from the bed and walked to my closet picking up a white t-shirt and quickly putting it on. The knock came again as low as it was before and I walked towards the door, unlocking it and opening it.

　　It was Nathan.

　　My eyebrows furrowed as I saw Nathan looking alarmed.

　　“What is it?” I asked, hoping that something bad had not happened in my mind.

　　“Nexus Soldiers,” Nathan said and I felt my heart skip.

　　I walked out of the room and closed the door.

　　“They are the border and they’re going to use force if we don’t peacefully give them Valerie in 30 minutes,” Nathan explained and I shoved my fingers into my hair, ruffling it violently.

　　“Wait.” I said and went into my room, picking my phone on the table and coming back outside.

　　I quickly put a call thought to General Rudolf and the phone rang for a while before he accepted the call.

　　“Xavier. Hello.” Rudolf’s coarse echoed from the phone.

　　“Why are you doing this?” I asked and there was silence on his end for a while.

　　“Xavier, what are you talking about?” Rudolf asked and I scoffed. What he really going to do this now.

　　“Oh, don’t play dumb with me.” I retorted and I heard him scoff on the other end.

　　“Xavier?” He sounded surprised.

　　“What about the soldiers outside by border right now, hungh?” I asked and there was another few seconds of silence.

　　“Soldiers? Xavier, what are you saying?” Rudolf replied and he sounded really surprised.

　　“There are Soldiers outside my pack right now and they are threatening to use force if I don’t do what you want in 30 minutes.” I said, gritting my teeth in anger and I glanced at Valerie’s room door, realizing I was raising my voice too loudly.

　　“What? That was not me. I didn’t give any order,” Rudolf said and I sighed in frustration. He really isn’t the one that’s responsible for this.

　　“Okay, sorry for disturbing you,” I apologized and was about to cut the call when Rudolf talked.

　　“And Xavier, if Nexus Services wants anything from you, I’ll advice that you don’t resist,” he said and cut the call.

　　If he didn’t do it, who did? I thought and then sighed as I realized who else must have given the order.

　　I quickly dialed his number and he picked up the call immediately.

　　“Hello Xavier, I believe you’ve seen the message I sent,” Senate President Griffin’s voice hit my ears and he sounded indifferent and unconcerned.

　　“Griffin, how can you do this? Why are you doing this?” I asked and I heard him clear his throat.

　　“In case I didn’t make myself clear, you have in your possession, a very dangerous supernatural criminal and she has to be returned to the Prison facility to ensure safety of the United States citizens,” Griffin said and I scoffed.

　　“It’s just one Vampire and Valerie is not a prisoner, she’s my Mate!” I yelled and glanced at Valerie’s door again. I didn’t want to wake her up or let her know about any of these.

　　I walked down the corridor and turned into another corridor with Nathan following behind.

　　“This does not mean that we would Lowe our standards or bypass the law,” Griffin retorted indifferently.

　　“The law?” I scoffed, “how can you talk about the law when you arrest this Vampires based on scientific data and imprison Rogues too.” I accused.

　　There was a silence for about 15 seconds until Griffin cleared his throat.

　　“We act based on crimes committed and we arrest supernatural criminals, Vampires and Werewolves alike,” Griffin answered, “you now have 5 minutes,” he said and cut the call.

　　I dropped the phone in my pocket and I faced Nathan.

　　“How many men are there?” I asked.

　　“About 20 soldiers with Silver ray guns,” Nathan replied and I sighed.

　　“Gather 10 men to go through the other side and attack from behind. I’ll round up those who would face off directly against them.” I instructed and Nathan nodded before walking away.

　　I sighed and threw my head backward before running to the training ground.

　　I created a mindlink on the way there and waited until enough people were connected.

　　“I want 20 armed men to come with me now, we have invaders at our borders.”

　　I walked towards the door dressed in a leather armour and about 20 men walking behind fully armed.

　　As I attempted to open the door, I saw a door open down the corridor and Jenna’s walked out of her room. She was holding her water bottle and probably heading towards the training room, but she stopped as she saw all of us.

　　She looked stunned for a bit before regaining composure and walking towards us.

　　I moved away from the door and gestured to the men behind me to keep going.

　　As they left, I closed the door.

　　“What’s happening?” She asked and my lips quivered as I thought about what to say.

　　“No, don’t lie to me,” Jenna said.

　　“There’s an attack going on right now and I need you and Valerie to stay here and lock yourselves up,” I lied and Jenna looked surprised.

　　“An attack? Who are they?”

　　“Um….they are Rogues, but we’ll handle it, just make sure that Valerie doesn’t leave this place,” I said and she nodded.

　　I walked out of the building and closed the door before getting into my car and starting the engine quickly. I drove into the forest path and pulled the gear, driving at full speed.

　　Eight minutes later, I suddenly brought the car to an halt and climbed down as I neared the border.

　　I could hear loud growls of my men, groans and the bullets flying in the air.

　　I never expected something like this to happen or at least, not so soon.

　　I and the rebel group were going to wait until we had enough evidence to know Nexus Services’ real intentions expose them.

　　My eyes narrowed and turned to a bright golden color as my claws extracted and I leaped into the air, growling loudly.
