but he was also worried for the people that lived here, in Denver.
    If those wielding dark magic brought their fight into the city then there were going to be casualties...probably humans. That didn’t sit well with him and he sipped his coffee as he thought on what to do.
    Ronan decided to place more teams on the outskirts of the city as lookouts for possible trouble. The last thing he needed was to have to deal with the mess that dark magic wielding Witches could bring down on the humans, living oblivious of any danger.
    They were fragile, most still unaware of the vast amount of Supers that actually lived in and around them. Humans had ruled for so very long, that they were complacent to the threats that were right there on their doorsteps. Most of them still thought they were at the top of the food chain...stupid, naive, uninformed, primitive.
    It was still his job to ensure they weren’t harmed by any of his own kind. A hard job...but someone had to do it.
    He sighed as he finished his coffee, realizing it was stone cold, and then checking his watch to see that almost an hour had passed while he sat and watched the slow rise of the sun. Standing up and stretching his body he then went to place the cup in the sink, grabbing his small packet of blood as he did so. His fangs descended, as they usually did when he was about to feed, ripping the pack at the top and drinking down his sustenance for the day.
    As he finished, his fangs retracted and he licked along his lips, making sure there were no visible telltale signs of the red liquid. The empty packet he placed in the waste and walked to the bar, retrieving the weapons he had worn yesterday.
    He carried them in his hand as he left his apartment, making his way to his office. Still too early for most of the staff, although he did see a few folks already in and working at their desks. Ronan nodded once or twice to a couple of them as he carried on, thinking he should really take note of who was putting in extra hours.
    The first thing he saw when he entered the office was the paperwork he had left behind. He groaned, knowing he really should get through that today. If not, then the funding would get held up, and folks’ wages wouldn’t get paid on time. Sometimes he actually wished he had passed the promotion up, preferring a much more hands on approach to keeping folks safe, and he knew he wouldn’t have to worry about hiring an assistant.
    Steeling himself, he sat down and started trawling his way through the mounds on his desk. He was almost finished when he smelled coffee– fresh, strong, black, coffee. Raising his head his eyes met Sam’s who stood at the door with two to-go cups of Starbucks in his hands.
    “Thought you might need this. I saw you earlier so went out and got us some decent stuff.” Sam sipped from one as he moved in and held the other out to Ronan.
    “ Thank you, I’ve just about finished this and could really do with a break.” Ronan took the offered coffee and swallowed some of the black liquid, almost moaning in appreciation.
    “ Yeah, I guessed you’d been in a while––most of the paper is gone from your desk.” Sam sat down, placing his feet on the edge of the desk.
    “ I didn’t sleep well last night. So I got in early and got rid of all this shit. I really need to get an assistant to help out. If not, I’m not sure I can carry on...I hate all this paperwork.” Ronan carried on savoring the coffee as he spoke, even the smell of the caffeine perking him up.
    “ I know, I’ve got a lot less than you and it bores me shitless. Can I get an assistant too?” Sam cocked his head to the side, waiting on Ronan’s answer.
    “ If you do get one...no women...if you’re that desperate for help then help is what you’ll get. That means a male and I’m not kidding around, Sam. I won’t approve anyone else for the job, so don’t try and pull one of your tricks.”
    Ronan had enough to do, without dealing with an office romance just
