Single Mother of a Werewolf Baby

Chapter 7 - Bloodline

As Fiona's proposal settled in, the room fell into a heavy silence. Each participant absorbed the implications of her words, their expressions shifting between shock, surprise, and contemplation. Yet, despite their varied reactions, a faint, almost imperceptible smile lingered on their faces.

Fiona's sister, who was currently in Las Vegas managing their casino empire, finally broke the silence. "Big Sis, don't get our hopes up unless you're certain. You know we've been waiting for another Elizabeth for more than 400 years since you were born."

Fiona exhaled slowly. "You know me better than that. No one has suffered more than I have because of this. I've had to be cautious my entire life. There were so many things I couldn't do simply because there was no other Elizabeth after me." She paused, then continued, "I've already sent a blood sample for resonance testing. We should have the results within the week. But I am highly confident. The connection I felt with her was far stronger than with any of you."

She hesitated before adding, "However, there is another possibility. The girl was pregnant at the time of her transformation, and the fetus also turned in order to survive. The child could be the Elizabeth, and the mother may simply be resonating strongly because of that connection. Since the fetus is still developing, we may have to wait a few more months to get a definitive answer."

Xavier, his face unreadable, asked, "Then how long do you propose we keep Protocol Eclipse Veil in place?"

"Until the blood resonance results are in. Once we have them, we can reassess." Fiona answered instantly.

Fiona's niece, the renowned actress Talia Raynor, sighed. "We already understand the stakes. If there's nothing else urgent, let's vote and conclude the meeting. I had to pause filming for this meeting, and my crew is waiting."

Xavier nodded. "Alright. All in favor of enacting Eclipse Veil, raise your hand."

The remaining three exchanged glances, then continued discussing various current affairs before parting ways. That night, dozens of shadow guards were deployed around the house, prepared to monitor
