Kate answered the front door around midnight to five cloaked figures that swept into the room uninvited and with an innate sense of entitlement. “Ah, Kate – you are looking well, how are you my dear?” the first enquired.

“Yes Tanya, we were getting worried we hadn’t heard from you regarding Catherine’s fate or” he paused delicately “or that of our other friends”.

It was Kate.

“Look – I nearly died because of you. The Cullen family and their members are greater and more powerful vampires than you will ever be, have ever been or could ever hope or dream of being. I won’t betray the Cullen’s after they have saved my life time and time again.” Kate spoke up.

Carmen and Eleazar stood motionless in the corner of the room, eyes wide and wary.
