Chapter 2
While everyone at the church was wondering what was going on in explaining who everybody was. The hunters moved further and further away with Kenzie. The night was sending down upon them as the fog was rolling in. The hunters had reached their destinations for the night. They got out of this murky rundown hotel. Then pulled Kenzie out with her hands tied together and pushed her into a room. Brett the leader of the hunters untied her hands and handcuffed her to the headboard of the bed. He checked the surrounding area to make sure it was secure before he laid down to sleep. Has he laid there his mine started to wonder? He knew that Kenzie could not go anywhere, that he had her handcuffed to the bed, yet something was still bothering him. He just could not put his finger on what was the cause. Brett drifted off to a dreamless sleep.
Back at Deming Park where everyone was gathered trying to figure out how to get her back. There were many questions still need to be answered on both sides. 
“There are still some things I need to know. Why did it take you guys so long to get in contact with Kenzie? Why suddenly are you guys all concerned about her safety now?" Adam asked with suspicion in his voice.
These are the things he had going on in his mind that happened just could not help but ask. He also knew the others were thinking about the same thing. 
“Well first let me introduce Kenzie's other grandfather. His name is Dusty, and he is a Wolf shifter." Scott said as Dusty step forward to shake Adams' hand.
“I do not talk much business then I have to. So, I am going to get straight to the point, Kenzie's real father was my son. They loved Kenzie dearly, but when Kenzie was four years old her parents were murdered by her mother's sister. Luckily Kenzie was with me that day. When I found out what happened I went to Scott and we decided to make Kenzie disappear. We had a wizard block her memories she would never remember who any of us were. Then we found a family who had some siblings to convince them all to take care of Kenzie as she was their own. Then we backed off and stayed away, it is not that we didn’t care about her that we did what we thought was best for her safety." Dusty explain with pain in his eyes.
The Council stood in silence why Dusty told the story of their beloved Kenzie and her family. 
“So, you are telling me that not only do we have to worry about the hunters. We have a crazed aunt after Kenzie now as well?" Adam screamed.
Adam was getting frustrated because he had so many questions that he needed to know about as well if Kenzie was still alive. 
“Yes, in a way you have Kenzie's Aunt is looking for her. Then we have answered and explained some of our situation on our side we have questions of our own that we would like answers to." Dusty asked.
Scott stood and stared at the group that swore they were friends of Kenzie. 
“It is only fair we answer your questions explained our part as you did to us," Adam said as he agreed with Dusty.
 The whole group stood and shook their heads in agreement with what Adam said.
 “What hunters have my granddaughter? Why do the hunters want my granddaughter? Then I want an explanation on how five vampires, troll, a cat shifter, a Wolf, an empathy, a sightseer, and two hunters are supposed to be friends with my granddaughter and how they swing their loyalty to her?" Scott spoke with force in his voice.
Councilmembers all shook their heads in agreement, but none dared to speak any more than what Scott had already said.  The look on all the Council members faced said they wouldn’t be settling for anything less than the truth.
“As for me, I am Kenzie’s true mate and her fiancé as well. That alone should tell you where my loyalties lie. We both dreamed of each other. It is also her wish to become a vampire. It is what she dreams of becoming. But for the others, I will let them explain their own side their version of why their loyalties lie with Kenzie." Adam explained to some degree.
 Adam bound and walked to the side so one the other could step forward to speak. 
“Hello, honored Council. My name is Connor as you know I am the sightseer. I have known Kenzie since you brought her to the family she knows. And let me tell you she did not have a happy childhood. We have gone to school and other things together and have bonded my loyalties will always be with Kenzie even against you."
 Conner side steps so Dylan can step forward. 
“I did not grow up Kenzie I met her in college when I met my true mate. Just so happen to be one of Kenzie's best friends. I have learned that Kenzie would do anything for her friends and anyone else that she cares about. I have seen her give up things for herself, so she could give to others. Which that alone shows me that Kenzie is worthy of my loyalties. I may be Wolf and should be just loyal to my pack alone, but I cannot and neither does my pack they all admire and respect Kenzie. So, she did not only have my loyalty but my packs loyalty as well."
 Dylan bows and takes a step back so ShaSha can step forward and tell her story. 
“Like, Conner I grew up with Kenzie from the time you brought her. She has always been an adventurous person but only when they weren’t around. The so-called family that you left her with verbally abused her. They took advantage of her because she was so smart and so trusting so they use that and manipulated her to do things that they wanted her to do. She learned how to fight back in different ways, then she left for college and never looked back. They do not call her, they do not write, and they do not acknowledge her existence. When the mother died they did not call her until after the funeral was over to let her know. That was a week later so when it came time for them to sort out the woman’s will that Kenzie new as her mother. Kenzie was sure that she would get nothing. They were sure they got everything and was going to sell off the restaurants that Kenzie owns. What they did not know, was that she had everything switched over into Kenzie's name when she got sick, so they couldn’t sell it. They were not happy that they could not touch and had no say in what happened with it. So, they told her she was no longer welcome at their home. She had to leave and that was her senior year. So, Kenzie came and stayed with me. She finished her last year of high school living with me and together we showed up for graduation. We are the only true family she knows. The group you see before you are and always will be Kenzie's family. My loyalties are with my family which includes Kenzie. I would follow her to the ends of the earth if need be." 
She walked back to her children and told him that she loved them and that they would get Kenzie back. The children were crying for their Aunt.
