asked.
                  Anton and Caleb looked to the man with anticipation.
                  “Again, I have to point out that the enchantment failed to show me who or what you are. Both of your werewolves here can attest that the memories were cut all of a sudden.” He noted.
                  “But I did find out one important thing. You have a keeper.” Gustav said proudly.
                  Unfortunately, the rest of the group did not really understand how this piece of information was at all relevant. In fact, they had no idea what a keeper was.
                  “You are all so confused.” Gustav giggled. “A keeper is someone tasked to make sure you would never come to know of your existence or your true nature.”
    Gustav looked at the waiting faces of the three. “You see, your kind – you pure sacrifices – are indeed special, but once you figure out what you are, it would automatically create a way for you to be tainted. For some, tainting a pure sacrifice could be so bothersome that a keeper is not required anymore because even if the sacrifice wanted to taint itself, it would be too hard to do so.
                  “For some, just like you my little doll, it could be as easy as a kiss from a prince or a prick on the spindle to taint you, and that’s why a keeper is sent to hide your identity and in turn, keep you clean as a whistle.”
                  “So I have someone making sure I’m prepped for sacrificing?” Hailey said almost defeated. “How is this, a good thing?”
                  “I get it.” Caleb remarked awkwardly but thoughtfully. “Now that we know that Hailey has a keeper, we know that tainting her isn’t at all impossible.” Caleb looked to Gustav for affirmation. Gustav simply nodded.
                  “Wait just one second. How do we even know that she really does have a keeper?” Anton inquired.
                  “Someone had to wipe out her memory of her childhood.” Gustav said.
                  “Right.” Caleb responded. “Someone had to have made sure she stayed away from what could taint her.”
                  “If that’s all correct, then this keeper must have been close to her ever since she was a child, up until she met us and the harvest moon started to rise.” Anton added.
                  “Exactly. And here I was thinking you little wolves didn’t have enough brain cells to figure this out.”
                  “What do we do now?” Hailey asked
                  “Simple. We find your keeper.” Responded Gustav with a slight smile.
    *****
                  They had left the voodoo hut that was disguised as a Dental Clinic immediately after they sensed a cold chill looming in the distance. It could just have been that typical east coast mist rolling in from the Atlantic, but both Caleb and Anton wouldn’t take the risk.
                  The Khiones were a formidable foe, and a foe that had a reason to hate Anton and had every reason to try with all their might to capture Hailey, the pure sacrifice.
                  It is important to point out how the Dominguez wolf pack and this Alaskan pack were related. In general, there was bad blood between them. The Dominguez’s feared them not because they were stronger or even more powerful, but simply because they had this deeply rooted hatred for the Dominguez family. They couldn’t really count on the Khiones to play a fair and honorable fight at any time.
                  The story is of a love lost and a betrayal perceived. It was not or did not seem to be something that was quite significant to the Dominguez’s, but the Khiones took it all too badly. The grudge they had was so strong that they even chose to move the entire pack as far as they possible could from the Dominguez
