Jacob handed the male a piece of paper with the names Pepper Stone and Lisa Anderson. Once that was done the most powerful of the council, a vampire Ancient who made Derick look like a new born stood up and looked at Jacob. How many Lycan's were injured in the assault? Twelve Sire. And two perished? Yes Sire. I understand you yourself were injured? Jacob nodded as he turned and his men rolled the shirt on his back up. One of the female council gasped since his back hadn't fully healed. He was covered in bullet holes, his back was covered by bandages but the darker spots of red showed where there was a hole and there were quite a few of them. The elder male looked to Derick and his eyes began to glow. I would expect more from you Derick. Jacob and his clan have stayed clear of injuring or killing vampires. Jacob himself has spared several of your kind. However your clan has already killed over one hundred Lycan for being on your territory since the start of this council. Not bothering you, simply being there. Jacob? Jacob looked up and bowed slightly. How many vampire to your knowledge have been on your lands since this council was made? Over fifty. Mainly from hunting. And how many have you killed? Two. They attacked females. My men were defending their mates. The elder looked at Derick and shook his head a bit as he rubbed his temples. Derick. Until this matter is resolved, you and your people are confined to your territory alone. You will stay out of the Neutral Grounds period. If the matter is not resolved in six weeks...you will step down as head of your Coven and a new Master will take your place, one that we are sure will do your job much better then you seem to be capable of. Jacob looked a bit concerned as well as everyone else who wasn't a council member. The female council member, a Lycan, spoke up. Derick, you are an amazing soldier and you seem to be doing right by your daughter, minus some hypocritical statements here and there....however you seem to be unable to control your men and that is something all leaders must know first and foremost. When Derick looked confused about the part with Raven the Master vampire smirked. You tell your daughter to grow up, how she needs to be strong and stead fast, but you refuse to allow her the space she needs to do that. Children do not learn when you are shadowing their every move, they learn through experience. You have to let her out of the nest some time Derick. Our spies that we have in each clan tell us how the leaders are when they aren't in front of us. Jacob, while he's a bit aggressive with his men, he is still an Alpha and they know that the aggression is needed. Lycan's all follow the strongest wolf, the Alpha. Vampires follow the one who was put in charge, not the one who's earned it. You need to start earning your title Derick. Jacob felt like he was the teacher's pet at the moment and sighed a bit as he looked to the council. Might I make a suggestion? When the council nodded Jacob turned to the female. Put her in charge. If a father doesn't trust his own child, there is no way he trusts his own men. The Master smiled a bit and looked at Derick. Leave us while we debate. Wait out in the foyer.
