Salvation's Heart Ch. 01

"William, I am with her. We need to meet. Bring the packs to Flint, Minnesota. I will be taking Teresa to my compound. I will contact other families to come to the compound as well. We need to gather and get the elders together. Marcus, I am sure you can get into contact with Alexander and Victoria. William, I'm sure you can get hold of the Magi and the Satyrs as well. This is important for the safety of Teresa." Vladimir said as both Marcus and William look to one another.

"Yes. It will be done." William said as he walked around the conference table standing by Marcus' side. "Is she in danger right now, Vladimir?" William asked as Vladimir looked to Teresa's eyes.

"Her brother Gabriel is walking the earth, William. I don't know if he intends to take her away from us or help us make sure the demons don't come after her. I refuse to leave her side." Vladimir said as Teresa smiles and touches his cheek gently.

"I'm still with my family, Vladimir. I refuse to leave even if he tries to drag me away from everyone." Her voice drifts through the phone to the ears of William and Marcus as they smile. William chuckles some.

"We will get to the compound within a few days with the packs, Uncle." Marcus said as Vladimir smiles and kisses Teresa's forehead gently rubbing his thumb over her cheek gently. Marcus closes his phone and looks to his brother. "It is good to have you back, brother." Marcus said putting his hand on William's shoulder pressing some.

"It is good to be back and not dead, brother." William said as Marcus nods. "I will have my pack start to head up to Vladimir's tonight. Do you still have the contact numbers of the Magi and Satyrs?" William asked as Marcus chuckled and shook his head some.

"You could never keep numbers, William. How the hell did you ever keep in contact with people?" Marcus asked as William's jaw dropped some as a huff came from his chest.

"I went to see people. These phones being mobile now are weird. Back in the age of..." William trails off as his eyes go to the painting of Catarina on the mantle. "I wish father could see her." William breathed as Marcus pats his shoulder gently.

"Only God can bring back certain people brother. Not everyone can be returned to the land of the living in this world. It would break the balance." Marcus said gently as William looks to his brother.

"I was dead, brother. My pack was destroyed 30 years ago. Why did he bring me and my pack back and not our father?" William asks.

"I don't know brother. I don't have the answers to that." Marcus said as William frowns before running his fingers through his white locks scratching his head some before looking up to Catarina once more.
