Twylyght stood up and spoke. "How about we start this meeting?"

Valentina sighed and tossed the papers to the side. "The rumors."

"Since Duke Colesing wanted this meeting let's get straight to the point." Valentina point at him. As the old Duke stood up.

"Your Imperial Highness, the territory of Blackfur, The Archduke may be a wolf." Twylyght raise her eyebrows and everyone else stays still and stares at Colesing. Twylyght relax and shake her head.

"That a bold statement, Duke Colesing." Kumo lean over the table playing with his pen.

"It could be a rumor." Valentina repeated.

Duchess HuntingShard speaks up. "Yes but wasting money over a rumor?" Colesing turn to her.

"Yes, Duchess it is a waste but what if I am right and we let the wolf free?" Colesing asked the Duchess.

Silhouette spoke softly. "Why does it matter if the territory is fine?" 

"True but wolves have always been profits, right Lady Claw?" Kumo tease her.

"That Duchess Claw and Marquess Kumo if the territory is under a wolf we could at least check." Dy-Leah agreed with Colesing. As the meeting was going on debating about Blackfur. Two little wolves creep inside. Silhouette look over to them.

"Hello little ones." Silhouette smiled. As the councils look over at them, a little girl and boy in sailor uniforms.

"Is this the Dark Council Meeting?" The girl was named Silentrose.

"Indeed, are you with the other servants?" Kumo was really hoping for some tea.

"No our father is here for the meeting." The boy was behind his sister. His name was Fangblade.

"I only have one son." Kumo point at himself.

"No kids." Wynter shake his head.

"NO our father Archduke Blackfur!" As the twin yelled. As the councils was silence no one say a word until Archduke Blackfur show up himself.

"Sorry I'm late, my Imperial Highness."

"Aunt Twy!" As the little wolves ran to her.

"Now, now children this is a meeting." Blackfur greeted the other royals. "I am the Archduke Asteroid Blackfur." He took off his hat. Silhouette opened her mouth to shock to speak. "A wolf?!"

Archduke turns to her. "Yes Lady Silhouette I'm a wolf." Valentina tap on Silhouette and point at Twylyght. Who was snickering under her mouth as she pet the Blackfur twins's head.

"My Empress?" Colesing was scared to say anything.

"Blackfur I want to expose you, not fair." Twylyght pouted. Blackfur chuckled "Sorry, Empress but you can exposed the others."

"Others?" Kumo smirked. As Claw, Snowblood, and HuntingShard took off their hats.

"No way." Colesing almost slid out his chair. Twylyght walk over to him.

"Your right Duke Colesing, Archduke was a wolf but so was Dy-Leah, Wynter, and Nightsoar." Colesing relax back in his chair and look around.

"Wynter?"
