At the manor, Selena and Jezebel ran into Liesel von Karnstein... literally. In their wild charge, they had knocked the undead hippie flat on her back as she tended Karnstein Manor's flower gardens. Liesel sat up, checked that her Amulet of Daywalking was still on, and smiled. "My, my!" she laughed musically. "You weretigers sure are powerful. Such magnificent avatars of primal night!"
"You can fawn over us later, Liesel," Selena said urgently. "Where's Carmilla?"
"She's with Tats at Delilah du Charme's house," Liesel answered. "Good luck making Tats see reason. This whole situation's been a total bummer. But be sure to come back and hang out with me and my girlfriend Claudia sometime. I adore the vibes of your beast bodies. They're far out!"
Selena and Jezebel nodded their thanks to Liesel and ran off to the du Charme house. They hastily shifted into their human forms, their fur, muzzles, ears, tails, and cocks receding. Jezebel unlocked the door, and the two entered. They found Tatiana, Carmilla, Delilah, and Morgana all gathered in the guest bedroom.
"Selena," Carmilla gasped. "I... I didn't expect to see you here."
"She knows everything," Jezebel explained, "and she has something to say about it."
"That's right," Selena nodded. "Tats, we need to talk."
Tatiana weakly raised her head to look Selena in the eye. Her ivory cheeks blushed blue with her thinned-out venom at the sight of Selena's deliciously nude body. "Selena, I'm sorry. I... I just wanted us to be together forever."
"I forgive you, Tats," Selena said. "I know why you did it, and it's my fault. I let you think I didn't care. I'm not used to having much of a love life, so I make a ton of beginner mistakes."
"Jezzie and I would be happy to give you some pointers," Delilah smiled. "It sounds like you could use a crash course in communication in particular."
"Thanks, I'll keep that in mind," Selena said before turning back to Tatiana. "Look, I'm NOT choosing Jez over you. I think I'm poly, and I treasure both of you as my cherished mates. I... I just want us all to come together and love each other. Without merging, I mean."
Tatiana smiled weakly. "I've been waiting to hear that for a month, Lena. And how does Jez feel about this?"
"You really think a succubus would turn down an extra lover?" Jezebel laughed. "I think it would be simply delightful to make delicious love to you!"
"But how can I be with you, Lena?" Tatiana asked. "I'm not a werebeast, and I can't become one like Jez can."
"There has to be a way," Selena insisted. "If not, then fuck what the other packs think! If I want a vampire for a mate, then I'll fucking HAVE one!"
"My offer to turn you into my succubus daughter still stands," said Jezebel.
Tatiana wrinkled her nose. "And lose most of my memories? Fuck, no!"
Morgana raised her hand. "There is another way. At last one. The possibilities of magic are infinite, you know. I am versed in the knowledge of a sorcerous ritual that would turn you back into a living, breathing human purged of undeath, Tatiana. You'd be a mortal, unburdened by necromantic energies. You would be free to be turned into a weretiger."
"It would be painful to release you from my vampire clan," Carmilla sighed, "but it's superior to you fading away to fuse with Selena or regressing to a baby and forgetting me."
Tatiana thought about Morgana's offer, deliberating whether she was willing to give up the gift of vampirism.
