Clara's POV I have a feeling that this has nothing to do with Vlad. Noah and Zaria are written all over this. I feel that I have consulted with the local vampires and are using them to help them. I know the leader of the local vampire. He is an evil creature, and I have seen him many times visiting Noah. I know Ryder is the leader of the Shadow Lords, but does he know about Nikolai? Nicholai has a girlfriend who is a dark, powerful witch called Aurora. If there is one thing the WHC condemns, it is the use of Black Magic, which is why they will never work with Nicolai. Nikolai runs the most prominent coven in America. They are based in the city and are very close to our pack. Unlike werewolves, vampires cannot feel each other's presence, as they have no pack grounds. Vampires do have coven
