Chapter 2
It would have done little good, actually it would do harm if the coming conflict were to become public knowledge. Humans and Vampyres were not the only species to realize that eventual victory meant combining several strengths to overcome inherent weakness within a group. We had enemies also.
What was that old saying about the weak not inheriting this world. It also applied to those of us who ignored the obvious need for 'partners' that could compliment each other. The shark and remora have such an arrangement. There are countless other such symbiotic relationships.
Time was not on our side unfortunately, but if anything was to last of such a teaming, it must be based on some level of acceptance, trust and mutual understanding of why the bonding was necessary for both species to survive. The use that the female 'Black Widow' spider makes of her mate is not the preferred outcome, however, of such a partnership.
Yes it was a slow process, but good things come to those that are patient. Things were finally developing. The option I had planned for Hans now seemed to be that deciding 'value add' we could offer the humans.
The arrival of Fern at the party had provided me that very opportunity to try it; she had been turned by another female, perfect for what my plan needed. Her new 'temp' form transformation would need to be repeated over time. As she was to be the instrument for Hans and even Marge, that effect would be further diminished on them or any others she might turn; and would reverse itself naturally, over time though. If anything went wrong, I was to be there and could, at the very worst, make such an attempts 'permanent'.
