Meanwhile, while Niki and his future wives made their pacts of faith, Nagisa sat in an office with Dimitri, Ivan and dimir''s wives. The walls of the office were lined with cabs and bookshelves containing books on every conceivable subject rted to monsters and legends.
All the chairs were old-fashioned leather one-seaters that Nagisa enjoyed using. She satfortably and quietly in the back of the office, gazing at the visitors with a smirk on her lips.
"I summoned you here for no other reason but Niki''s future with those girls and how we will move to protect them." Nagisa''s eyes narrowed, forming a sharp and aggressive gaze. "You see, even though I approve of my daughter''s engagement, I refuse to let either of them be in danger because of our n''s past actions."
Nagisa made her stance clear, causing the others to nod, smile or quietly contemte their answers.
"What do you have in mind, Nagisa?" Ivan asked, curious about how she would move and act; though he trusted her many years ago, time could change people, and he feared she might not be the same woman he trusted with his life.
"I will be their protector, living close to them to help Niki and the girls." She tapped the arm of her chair using her nails while leaning back and crossing her legs. "I know the girls well, what they desire from him and how to help him manage the rtionship to avoid any issues with polygamy, " she said with a smile.
"How will we exin your involvement as our protector?" Dimitri asked with his head resting against his hand while he leaned on the table, appearing bored and tired of her ns, having heard it
"I''ll tell Niki and the girls honestly."
"Okay, I support Nagisa being the protector." Dimitri, although her wife, didn''t speak without taking a long thought, although he disliked his beloved daughter sharing a man with another. Continue reading on empire
He understood that both Selene and Nikita carried affections that wouldn''t be lost to the other for Niki. "I also need to mention that the Hati n have been making strange actions recently..."
"How?" Ivan and d both asked at the same time, with curious expressions.
"They have been purchasing real estate close to rocky outcrops, orndscapes while also doing a lot of work investigating caves and other simr parts ofnd." His tone was low, but there was a deep concern within his pupils—he looked towards Ivan, who stroked his chin with a focused expression.
Nagisa noticed the information and considered what Niki said. Her mouth opened wide, and she quickly hit the desk and spoke in a louder, more urgent voice. "Everyone, the Hati n seems to be doing something dangerous. Niki gave me information about something strange—the northern Wrath nest, do you remember?"
She gazed across the room, and everyone nodded, though some knew more—Nagisa sighed and began exining bout the corrupted cave and the strange aura matching the tower''s lower levels.
"Hmmm..." Ivan tapped his chin, a strange look in his eyes, as he looked at d, who nodded.
"I think you''re thinking something simr to me, Ivan?" d questioned while sighing. "There is a high likelihood the Nosferatu n is involved with this strange phenomenon, also... the current head of the Nosferatu seems suspicious... a younger that powerful isn''t normal."
d''s voice seemed to indicate his certainty of opinion, but Dimitri and Ivan also nodded at the sudden change because they found it strange.
"You''re right. We confirmed that the new patriarch isn''t a hybrid, so this kind of power isn''t possible with a normal vampire."
udia, dimir''s second wife, suddenly stepped forward, taking out detailed reports on his actions andparing them to several past elders and ancestors with several matches. "If you all remember, the goal of the Nosferatu''s n is to create the ultimate undead that can inherit the powers of the past lords and ancestors..."
udia carefully highlighted with a light each of the different things that matched, causing the others to gasp and clear their throat with stern faces. "These are the ones that act too simr to the past leaders of the Nosferatu n. Is it possible that the new heir is in fact an artificial or reincarnation of one of their former ancestors... it might exin his immense power at an age below two hundred."
"This is quite amazing udia, I didn''t realise you and d were looking so deeply into this." Ivan gave a sincerepliment, but d also looked shocked.
"No, this is all udia... amazing." d patted udia''s head, stroking her hair. The pretty woman blushed, squirming slightly at her husband''s touch.
"Darling wait... it''s not time."

The meeting continued, with various facts and information being shared between the strongest ns in S-City before their future goals were organised.
d and his wives would look into the issue of the patriarch and his movements.
Dimitri would focus on the Hati n and their purchases and try to discover why they wanted such properties. Meanwhile, Nagisa would live close to the mansion and protect, train and support Niki and the girls without needing to worry about anything else.
"I will help back up Nagisa in dangerous moments, while helping Anastasia recovering from her state, then we will have another powerful ally, someone who can crush the enemy, and that damn Nosferatu Patriarch." Ivan added that while looking at the documents rted to Niki and Ryan,
Their voices became hushed before udia stepped forward and asked something.
"We should send Anya to the mansion," Anya''s mother asks in a soft voice. For a long time, she has treated Anya badly because of her state, but now she realises Niki did something to her, and her bloodline awakens.
"Why?" Ivan''s eyes narrowed before she continued, pointing at him with a sharp re that resembled Selene''s despite not being rted.
"Ivan, what will you do about my poor girl now carrying Báthory blood... how can she marry another vampire with his scent and bloodline so deeply ingrained in her body!"
Ivan shrugged and didn''t see the big deal. Instead, he looked at Anya and smiled. The girl who used to be arrogant had be more mature and modest.
Anya didn''t speak at the meetings because they needed to focus on Niki, Selene and Nikita. She came with her mother, though udia brought her for the current reason, which made Anya''s chest feel stuffy and strange.
"If the girl wants to live with them, fine, but I won''t condone forcing anything, be it friendship, love, or a partnership." Ivan loved his son and wouldn''t force anything on him anymore.
d then added his piece. "Let it be as fate decides. If she can make him turn her way, I won''t step in orin. The deed was done before he realised the significance of such an act, but that doesn''t excuse that yboy ruining the lives of my lovely princess."
"Anya, you can live and act as you please." Ivan expressed his feelings while patting her hair and messing it up roughly.
"Father... I..." Anya blushed when thinking about living together with Niki, Selene and Nikita.
"It''s fine, just live as you wish, I will allow it." d showed a rare smile to his daughter, causing even udia to cover her lips and smile.
As a result, the meeting and roles became organised, with Anya preparing to move into the new mansion with the others for protection and to soothe her growth. She carried a lot of Niki''s blood within her, and being separated for too long while adapting would negatively affect her.
"What are the kids nning to do tonight?" Dimitri asked while noticing the maids rushing to the mansion near the edge of the forest.
"A weing party." Nagisa chuckled. "My darling daughter likes parties, but unfortunately, I have no taste for them after seeing your kind, d..."
dughed. "You liar, we all know you enjoy drinking the most here!"
Nagisa smirked and nodded her head. "You''ve caught me out! I like parties for alcohol and cute men, like my husband."
Dimitri blushed at his wife''s words, then shook his head and looked at Ivan. "Will you let those guys have a good night without your involvement?"
"Hmm?" Ivan raised an eyebrow, then he shrugged and rxed into his chair. "Of course, Niki and the girls are already adults... you know they''ve already be mates. We should try to keep a distance, and watch gratefully."
Ivan chuckled. "He has grown far stronger than I ever imagined, so... a little rxation isn''t bad right?"
