it pointedly clear why he was in charge. "We get to the bottom of this before I have the Arch Demon on my ass sending his men out to see what this Crave is up to."
"Let the demons come." Night chortled and took another shot from the bottle when Fangs leaned forward and took the bottle from him.
"If we let the demons come, then it makes the Vampire Nation look like we’re hell bent on killing. We don’t want it going that far, we run things not the fucking demons." Fangs knew his hatred was prejudicial but his Vamps were not about to get in a battle with the demons over one of their own.
"Just because you hate demons-"
"I don’t hate demons, I just prefer to never deal with them. I want to maintain a cordial undertone. If they think for one minute that we can’t control our ranks then what?" Fangs snarled trying to keep his voice low. He wasn’t looking for a demon vs. Vampires war here, he simply wanted to maintain his spot at the top.
"All I'm saying is let them think it. They aint stupid enough to bend a war out of steel."
"What?"
"Bending steel ya know like make a war out of the impossible." Night said and leaned back as if whatever point he was making had been met.

"Look why don’t we all do our part on digging up the Sire for this Crave character and make sure all of us are on the same page. That way whatever territory he crosses over into we can battle it out on our terms and keep the devastation from unwanted ears." Burn had been the “go to” Vampire when he had been in leadership of Fangs Posse, knowing he was leading the Spokane vampire’s relaxed Fangs measurably.
"I agree but this problem gets handled fast and efficient I don’t care who his Sire is. The entire state of Washington is mine with the exception of transfer on Spokane, until then I want to know the name and Sire of every Vampire in my area and suggest you do the same. Find Crave and get him nice and tight and leave him for sunset."
The meeting dwindled on a little longer until most bases were covered. Burn let Fangs know that a few Bear Shifters had been killed in human accidents for not taking care during hunting season. A few of the Shifters from the Bear’s family wanted to go after the humans but knew they didn’t have the fight and wanted the Vamps to get involved.
Fangs gave an 'Oh
