The events of Lupercalia seemed so long ago now, but Remus could not forget it. As much as he had looked down upon the lycans back when he was a vampire, that was a long time ago now. It seemed like he had lived several different lives with many different faces. This one that he was currently inhabiting had been one stolen from a man that knew no better. He had been a witch that Remus took from and had no care for if he lived or died. The terror had a one track mind. He knew what he wanted and he made sure it was going to happen. At some point. It took too much time to really handle this whole Romulus thing and he wanted to get it done as quickly as possible now. What point did he have in waiting? There were others in the way that would make it difficult for him, but it seemed these lycans had a common goal. Not in killing his brother, but in making sure the Senate got put down quickly. Plus, he did like the idea of bloodshed. That seemed to be something only the lycans could provide to him right now. He certainly wasn’t getting an army from the drow.

His in to make his way to the alpha had been to mimic one of the many lycans that could make their way through the thick fog that blinded those that did not wield the proper tools to wander through it. Once he had gotten to the bar, he let go of the face for the one that he had been wearing for many years now. A drink was in his hand as he waited for an appearance from the one they called Alek. A volatile alpha. Remus was a bit of a fan of someone who would rip a heart out and eat it in front of a large crowd of people. He would never admit to such a thing though. His own ego was large enough for one room. He certainly didn’t need someone else’s blowing up as well. The terror was a bit selfish in that way. 

“Alek Gray, correct?” That was the name he had remembered being said and the face he remembered. “We have a lot to discuss.”

Vinny had wondered what had happened to the younger guy. It seemed like he was there one moment and then gone the next. The former witch had bit the dust in the worst way and looking for the lycan hadn’t exactly been top priority when he came back as a ghoul. The last word he would have ever used to describe their relationship was ‘friends’, but there was a part of him that had been concerned. What could he do though? He wouldn’t have even known where to start. Even if he did, there would be nothing he could have done. It had been a relief to see Alek at Lupercalia. They hadn’t spoken, Vinny thinking it was best if he steered clear. He didn’t exactly want his heart to be eaten in response. This was as good of a time as any though. The alpha could brush him off and Vincenzo would probably just go about his business just as before. “Hm,” was all he said as he looked at the lycan before stepping closer. “You know, I thought you had just kinda left. How wrong I was, huh?” He took the cigarette out of his mouth and blew a circle into the air above them.

Alek, oh Alek. To say Serkan had not expected this day to come would have been a lie. Ever since Halloween, he had told himself that this kid was going pay him back for what he had done. He guessed the alpha wasn’t a kid anymore though. When the former alpha thought back to when they first met, he just thought about how green the other was. Then came the attack on someone from the senate and he would have applauded if they didn’t constantly have a foot on his neck. So he had done what he felt needed to be done. A show of strength that had turned into anything but. It had ruined so much and fixed absolutely nothing. Now, the only memory he had of the volatile was that look in the other’s eyes as he ripped the heart from another lycan’s chest and consumed it. It was just as entertaining as hearing about any of the former Arno pack causing a problem in Rome. The only thing that made it better was that Serkan had one less rival to worry about. It had felt like a gift placed into his hands with just a single look.

It was why it had taken him less time than expected to decide on what exactly he felt he needed to do. This new Lupo pack that the new alpha had came up with was going against the senate and, if there was anyone Serkan hated, it was them. Alek wasn’t his enemy by any means. After all, the alpha had left him alive when he could have done anything but. He considered that another gift. Stay down, Serkan. That was exactly what he had told himself. That was what he always told himself, but he was tired of staying down. The foot on his neck had been lifted and he felt a freedom he hadn’t known in a long time. It had brought him right to the Lupo doorstep. As his eyes met Alek’s, he held his hands up in what was supposed to be a show of respect that he was not there to cause problems. “Have you got a minute?”

“So what do you do in your spare time, Alek?” The younger man had just recently joined the pack and Serkan still felt like he knew nothing about him. Burak had made this problem for them, but the younger lycan fit in too perfectly for the alpha to complain about the new addition. “I might have a proposition for you.” He realized how that had sounded after the fact. “Not like that though. You’re not particularly my type.”

“Where are you coming from?” He took a sip of his whiskey as he looked at the younger man. Their living situation wasn’t exactly ideal, but Vincenzo barely had money. All he had was what was in his bank account when he left to come to Rome. It would run dry soon so he was actively looking for a job. “Want a drink?” Lifting up the bottle, he held it out to Alek. “Grab some now before I drink it all.”

Lupercalia. It felt like just yesterday that the two of them had been down there fighting each other for that alpha spot. Now the two of them were without a title and only Serkan was fighting for it again. Alek had been through two brain surgeries so there was no way in hell the other was going to even bother becoming alpha again. As far as he was aware at least. It wasn't like he was going to question it constantly. Maybe he would've enjoyed round number two for them, but that didn't really have to be for a spot at the head of the Lupo table. Placing his shades on his face, he lifted a beer to his mouth with his free hand. "Why the fuck didn't anyone mention that fucking Valamir was doing this shit?" He didn't much mind it, but that was sure as hell jeopardizing his chances here. He'd have to be smart about that fight if he really wanted to win this whole thing.

Remus usually kept to himself when he decided to wander into New Rome. However, that also meant that he hadn't spoken to Alek in quite some time now. Not since all these lycans had decided to show up at least. It was really an interesting situation, but there was a lot going on that he wasn't going to be privy to. That wouldn't do though. He wouldn't be left in the dark about this. Which was why he had made the trek to their little lycan meeting room, his feet tossed up onto the table as he waited for the alpha to show up. He'd sent a message so he assumed Alek would give him the time of day. After all, they were working together here.

Freedom still seemed foreign to him which was why Nash was always on edge. And nothing put him more on edge than the lycans that seemed to roam about so often. Things had changed as of recent to where they weren’t as common to see outside of New Rome. He was sure it wasn’t just him that wasn’t a part of the pack, but he was also a danger to them. The Cannibal knew that and so did the alpha of that ragtag group of lycans that stayed within the forest. Alek was more interested to him than the rest though. A volatile turned alpha. He wondered often just how much power the man had, if the lycan was stronger than him. They wouldn’t need to test that out now, but it was a thought he had and a reason he had not attacked on sight. As feral as he was, he preferred to live as long as he possibly could. Smoke blown into the air between them, he eyed the alpha before speaking. “How long you think you have left?” Nash himself had damn sure lost count.
