nThere was a lot that we needed to discuss, and a lot of people that needed to be a part of that discussion. It wasn’t just me, Trinity, and those of us that had been a part of or watched the interview take place. We needed to make sure that the others were a part of this as well. They all needed to know what it was that was going on. They needed to know what we had learned.

nTo be honest, it wasn’t all that much that we learned, but there was something. We knew that this guy had been a part of the PAWs, before the majority of the group had been arrested for their attack on the stadium. We knew that this man acted alone, but he was a part of a larger group. And this man, along with his whole group, had some messed up ideals that they wanted to force onto the world.

nKnowing that we needed to gather the others for this conversation, we all returned to the castle, and once again to my Little Bunny’s office. It was, of course, the center location that we used for almost every meeting that we needed to have. It was large enough, comfortable enough, and private enough. Therefore, it fits all of the requirements.

nI was still raging mad even as I walked into the office. I had to exercise every ounce of my self-control so that I wouldn’t end up hurting that man earlier today. The man that had so openly talked about wanting to kill my children, and the children that I considered family. Some of them were family too, because Elias was there, and he is my nephew. Those kids, innocent in every conceivable way, didn’t deserve what that monster was going to do to them.

nI knew that I wasn’t the only one that was angry either. Vincent was pissed off because the man was going to kill the kids, and because he had insulted my Little Bunny. Yes, that pissed us both off, for different reasons though. For me, I was angered because she is my wife and mate, and I will not tolerate someone speaking like that about her. For Vincent, he is her faithful Beta, and he would not tolerate someone talking that way about his Queen. He was, in a sense, like another one of Trinity’s big brothers. And a very protective one at that.

nRight now, I was sitting at the big desk that my tiny Little Bunny usually sat behind when working. I wasn’t sitting alone though, I needed the comfort of touch, and only the touch of my Little Bunny would do. So, I was sitting in Trinity’s large throne-like chair with her positioned on my lap. This contact, the touch and warmth of her in my arms, was helping me to keep the raging wolf inside of me under control.

n…..

n“I think you all know why we are here.” My Little Bunny started to speak, looking out over all the attendees. It wasn’t just the usual suspects here either, there were more. Of course there were Shawn, Dietrich, Shane, David, Vincent, and Gabriel, but there were others as well. Trevor, Gloriana, Valerian, Samuel, Wesley, Riley, Landon, Noah, Carter, Bryce, Jackson, Devon, Rawlynne, Paul, Cedar and Juniper. Honestly, the assembly was a little sexist, and even I could admit that, but these were the ones that we usually relied on. It wasn’t planned that there were only three women other than my Little Bunny.

n“Yeah, is this about what happened at the school earlier?” Shane spoke in that rarely heard serious tone of his. He knew that this wasn’t a time to joke, and I was glad that he was able to turn off his jokes when the situation warranted it.

n“Yes, Shane, it does. More specifically, the interview of the would-be bomber.”

n“Were there any more bombs? Did you get out of him if there were more than the forty-five or not?” This was a slightly angry and slightly panicked question from Shawn. He wanted to make sure that the kids would be safe when they went back to school.

n“He claimed that there were more, but that was a lie.” Vincent told him in a tone filled with confidence. “He wanted us to be scared at the idea that there were more bombs that would go off after a certain amount of time. That was a lie though, he couldn’t get past me with those poor attempts at intimidation.” The last part was spoken just a little smugly. I thought that he might have deserved it.

n“So, Trinity was able to make him talk?” Gloriana looked at her niece with love and admiration in her eyes.

n“No.” I said almost immediately. “He refused to speak to Trinity. However, she was able to tell him things that were all pretty much confirmed to be true. He is the type of man that thinks a woman is beneath him, so I needed to speak to him once Trinity left the room for a break.”

n“Really?”

n“Holy **!”

n“Damn!”

n“Wow.” There were a lot of exclamations at my revelation, but I didn’t pay them any mind. They had heard me, they were just verbalizing their shock about it all.

n“Anyway, after she left the room, I was able to get the man to talk a little. That is until he remembered that none of us in the room were human. That was when he clammed up and refused to talk at all.”

n“Do you want me to take a crack at him?” Juniper asked with an evil smile on her face. She had helped us with some of the Jaegan, so we knew that she was able to make people talk.

n“No, I don’t think it will work this time.” I shook my head in defeat. “He hates it when a woman is in a position of power or authority. He would likely refuse you. And, as you know, we are trying not to give humans a reason to fear us. Forcing a mental change on him would only make us look like controlling monsters in their eyes. No, we can’t make him talk to you, but that doesn’t mean that we have nothing at all.”

nThere was silence for a few moments. They were all processing the words that I had just said. They were all a little on edge because of the events of the day, but they were also pissed that there was someone that was hitting us so close to home. We needed to do what we could to protect the city and the people here, human and nonhuman alike.

n“Alright, so the man refused to speak to my Gariníon 1, that is not pleasant, but we cannot do anything about it now. What was it that you managed to learn from him, Reece?” Valerian narrowed his eyes and looked at me seriously. “You had to have learned something, or we wouldn’t be here.”

n“You are correct. There is a lot that we know about this man, even if he didn’t confirm it all. We know that his name is Gerald Ramie. He is a student at the university, but he almost didn’t come back for this semester. Classes had already started before he came back from wherever he was. And initially, he had planned to stay on campus for the holiday, which means that he changed his plans last minute. Like, the day of the reveal.”

n“That makes sense. If he recognized Reagan and Rika from the news, then he would act hostilely. He would likely not want to return to the school because he was one of the extremists. And because most of his buddies were arrested, he would be too afraid to return without them at his back.” Samuel was speaking analytically as he proceeded to tell us what he had been thinking.

n“I agree.” Wesley spoke next. “If he was a lower ranking member of that group, the PAWs, then he would have panicked and not known what to do. Given that he appears to have had some sort of assistance with today’s attempted bombing though, I am going to guess that he is no longer scared and alone.”

n“You would be correct in that assumption.” My Little Bunny nodded at her dad and crossed her arms on my lap. I could still feel the anger radiating off of her. She was pissed as well, for the same reasons that I was.

n“Yes, he has another group now. He has been taken in by the DOE. I do not know if the DOE was an entity that worked in the shadows before the reveal, or if they were born of the unification of multiple extremist groups that wanted to form a more functioning army to fight us.” I added to what my Little Bunny had just told them.

n“Army?” Valerian narrowed his eyes even more, he almost looked as if he was squinting at this point, but I knew that it was all born of his anger and curiosity.

n“Yes. I think that they are trying to build an army to come after us. We already know that they consider us to be their enemies, that was known before today. However, we found out that the leader of the DOE is called ‘Colonel’ by the lower ranks. That was how Gerald referred to him anyway. And I have a feeling that Gerald idolizes this man. Most likely, today’s attempted bombing was his attempt to impress the man and gain attention from him.”

n“That’s one hell of a way to get someone’s attention.” Shawn shook his head. “Is he mentally unstable?”

n“I believe so, yes.” I nodded as I thought back on the conversation that I had with the man, as well as remembering the things that we had learned about him prior to the interview. “Even his professors advised that he seek mental help, so we’re not the only ones that think he is mentally unbalanced.”

n“He’s a **ing nutcase, that was evident when he tried to bomb the school. We don’t need to debate that fact.” Trevor crossed his arms and glared at nothing in particular. “In fact, that dumbass is in federal custody now, so there is no reason to be talking about him now at all. What we need to focus on is the rest of his buddies, and how we’re going to stop them.”

n“You are absolutely right, Trevor.” My Little Bunny looked at him thoughtfully as she slowly slid herself out of my arms and off of my lap. “In fact, there is something that Reece and I want to tell you guys. Something that I think will be just as important as talking about the DOE.”

nI knew what she was getting at. Only about half of the people in this room knew about this, about what my Little Bunny and I had experienced recently. And the ones that did know had been just as shocked by the events as we had been. I agreed with her though, they needed to know that there was something major coming, even if we didn’t know what it was yet.

nPart of me wanted to tell them on behalf of my Little Bunny. And the other part of me just wanted to watch her and all the glory that was her in charge. I didn’t know why people like Gerald Ramie and his ilk didn’t want to see women in power. They had no idea how much of a turn on it was to see a woman that knew what she wanted and how to get it. Or a woman that knew what needed to be done, and was willing to make it happen at any cost. They were seriously missing out, and they would never understand just what this was like. That was fine with me though, those of us that knew how to treat a woman understood it, and that was all that mattered.
