the other man, his voice hard and offering no room for mistake. “We didn’t know that the Alliance was behind that. We just received the information today from the tech team. It took them a while to hack into Brun’s computer and trace his steps. And we found some other information.”

Finally, Julian sat, although he didn’t seem happy. Axel didn’t care if the man was in a good mood. As long as he followed commands, he would be alright. Julian was the best at dealing with other people. He was charming, but he didn’t stand for injustice.

He knew that Julian’s anger was appropriate. Nothing piqued the blonde man’s anger like injured innocents and the fact that the woman was a Witch didn’t make her any less innocent.

The Hidden were mythological creatures that were alive and well, just hiding in the shadows. There was enough evidence of the Human’s potential reactions.

The Witch community never recovered after all the drowning’s and burnings.

Not that the Hidden were helpless.

Warrior Angels protected Humanity from Demons. But they weren’t the only ones capable of destruction. Hidden and Human alike could demolish whole civilizations, taking out the good with the evil.

It was why he chose to Fall. It was why he made this organization.

The innocent needed protecting. And the Human police couldn’t possibly do enough.

“Well.. M..most of the Alliance are actually Hidden, you know, rather than Humans as they want us to believe. There are, umm.. som…some other inconsistencies, as, umm, well. The head of the Alliance has far gr..greater power than we, umm,  had thought.”

“Kellan Tolk is the leader, right?” Jai supplied helpfully, her voice cutting through the silence.

“Yes,” Axel concurred. “He is a Werewolf.”

“A Wolf-Shifter?” Malyk asked, his voice thin and calm. Out of all the seven, Malyk was the warrior that concerned Axel the most. The Dark-Elf had come from Faerie not too long ago and had rose up in the ranks. He was best at undercover work because he seemed to transform himself into anything. That level of deception was why Axel watched him closely. Right now, his hair was blue, shaved on the sides allowing the middle to be messy. His black eyes watched the room from under a pierced brow. His tattoos drew the eye.

“No, Elf He’s not one of us.” Jai growled, “The guy isn’t a Shifter. He can’t turn into an animal, isn’t even connected to an animal spirit. Just becomes a weird…thing. Like Bigfoot mixed with a jackal. Has to shift with the moon too. Weak and pathetic.”

Before the room could erupt into a shouting match about the Hidden, Axel stopped it. “Enough!” he said without raising his voice, however the command in his tone was sufficient.

“Tolk is a Werewolf. However, he’s something else too. There were reports that he has the ability to coerce some into working for him. We lost one witness who decided to join the other side.” Axel explained.

“Couldn’t she have just switched?” Connor asked, leaning in closer.

“No. We’re sure it was not a choice she would have made. Her father was captured, vivisected and killed by the Alliance. She wanted to hunt them down. Now she helps them get rid of bodies.”

“Literally,” Gage spoke for the first time. The large man was a Berserker, a Demon race that changed into a monster with uncontrollable rage. He was also Axel’s second in command, and best friend.

The man knew everything that Axel himself knew and so Axel wasn’t surprised that he had stayed quiet this long. He was generally a loner by nature, avoiding things that could bring on his killing rages. He was too controlled.

Axel understood Berserkers. They gained power from killing, and became uncontainable when outraged. They were also technically considered High Demons. Gage hated his species.

“She could have been tortured, or threatened.” Jai suggested. She would know about torture.

“No,” Malyk amended, “She was seen by one of my people out shopping just after she broke contact. She appeared happy and healthy.”

Malyk had people undercover all over the world, they spied for him. He had some extra resources too, which he didn’t share. Axel allowed that, as long as he was loyal to the Hunters.

“So, what does this mean? Tolk has someone in his company that has mind control powers. It’s not unheard of,” Julian surmised. He was always the most vocal of the group. He asked questions, gave opinions.

“Wait, did you say that he has been seen using other powers?” Connor asked, getting to the main problem. They could consider and argue about what might or might not be happening to others, however if he had been seen using them, that was different. It was proof.

“Yes, Sasha’s team interrupted a meeting at a club when they went to investigate some missing Humans. They fought and several of Tolk’s people died. The rest self-destructed. Tolk was there, vanished when Sasha was cornering him. He was there one moment, and gone the next.”

“How did they know that he’d be there? He’s never seen anymore.” Connor asked. He was a Human, and the smartest person that Axel knew. He relied on Connor’s insight.

“An anonymous tip was, umm, given to the police. Umm… About…the fight before it happened.” Eden explained.

“Speaking of Sasha, has anyone seen her lately?” Julian asked.

While some looked concerned, and others indifferent, Eden blushed, the pink evident even through her mocha skin.

“Alright, so we are working under the theory that Kellan Tolk has gained powers. Eden, Connor, I need you two to look into the source. He might be working with a group of rogue Witches, or possibly a Demon. Julian, keep investigating the Witch abduction. Everyone needs to watch their teams. Humans are learning of the Fallen from somewhere. The police had been warned of Alliance attacks. Either we have a leak in the Hunters, the Alliance has one, or they
