The plan wasn't a bad one.
Semi was a tad resentful that it had come from Danielle.
'We'll have to pick an environment we can control that doesn't set of alarms for Harris.' Osei said.

They were all comfortably seated outside the patio behind the meeting room so the wolves involved in the scheme of things could participate.
Loki, Malaki, Lupé, Liza, with Bozer and North: the mates of Liza's sisters.

Athen and Mira sat next to the other and listened in as well and offered words of advice when necessary.
The sun had just set and the warmth with it.
'There's another problem.' Valentina said.
'Getting Nicholae to the meeting place, of that's successful we still don't know how we're going to exorcise the demon from his body.'

Clarissa raised her hand.
'I can help there.'

'You know exorcism?' Cayden asked surprised that such a naive looking girl dabbled in such a gritty line of work. That was the same thought running through Semi's head. Osei was also surprised but at the fact that she made the offer in the first place. Her soft features and large doe eyes gave her an air of innocence and fragility, like even a gust of wind would spook her.

'I could.' She replied.
'There's a book Danielle grabbed, from the Alpha's house. And it has an exorcism spell but we might need a number of things.'
Semi frowned, not recalling leaving any of her Gemma's books behind at the house.
'What are the chances of everything being in one place?' Cayden asked.

'Thank you for offering to get these things with Clarissa, Cayden.' Osei smiled grabbing his shoulder.

'But did I really?' Cayden batted his eyes as Osei, who only smiled back too.
Liza and her twin brother snickered.
'Then I'll need backup. Lupé and the runt.' He meant Liza since he pointed at her.

'Agreed.' Osei said in agreement.

Liza simultaneously groaned with Lupé and rolled her eyes at Cayden who sent her a mocking smile.
'I love it when a plan comes together.' Danielle smiled.

'We're not done. We'll need a test subject for the exorcism.' Semi sassily interjected.
'I'll have to practice on an actual demon first before we try it out on Nicholae.'

'Who the hell told you you're performing the exorcism? You're not even going to be in the same section of the map as Harris. You're staying here where it's safe.'
Semi looked sardonical.
'Well I'm saying so, you're not the boss of me. I have enough experience to handle the situation when things go south. Clarissa won't be very useful to you then- no offense.'
She said to Clarissa.

'No offense, Semi,' Danielle interrupted. Semi tensed ready to take offense.
'But I'll have to agree with Osei here.'

'Of course.' Semi muttered under her breath.

'You're too delicate to be let into the crossfire.'
Semi wasn't sure if Danielle really meant it or if she was being sarcastic. Maybe she was just over imagining things.
'And that's final.' Osei added.
'This meeting is over.'

Osei, we talk. Athen walked away expecting Osei to follow, which he did.

'Come on Clarissa lets take a look at this list.' So Danielle, Cayden and Clarissa left as well.

So now she's the boss?
Loki scoffed.

You have to admit it is a good plan. And I'm sorry Semi I'll have to agree with her.
Malaki said risking the scornful look from his twin and the Alpha female.
We have to forgive her at some point Lo, she's here to save Osei and she's helping Valentina. She's trying to make things right.

Well then she shouldn't have made it wrong in the first place.
Malaki shook his mane at his stubborn brother.
Sometimes I think your head is made of bricks.
