*Vicky*

I took a closer look and saw that it was the familiar face of a middle-aged man.

"How did you find me?"

"I followed your bat here."

The Messenger pointed to the reconnaissance bat on his head. It was originally placed near my house in New York to be responsible for guarding. If there was something important, the Messenger could use blood to communicate directly with it and ask it to locate me.

I put away my claws and looked upstairs. Leon hadn't woken up yet.

"If you have something to say, then hurry up and say it so you can leave already."

My tone was a little anxious. Now that The Messenger had appeared here, there was a high probability that the Elder's Church already knew about what I'd done.

The Messenger took out a letter inside a black envelope, on which was stamped a blood-red seal with a flame emblem. The moment I saw that emblem, I immediately understood what it meant.

"I'm sorry, my lord. Please return quickly. Before that

    *Vicky*I stepped forward and the members of the Elder's Church who'd been waiting on the sidelines draped me in a ritual robe. Afterwards they would then drive a long nail into my heart, which was stained with the blood of Lord Primogenitor, allowing me to maintain my strength while falling into slumber.Kristen pulled the switch next to my sculpture. The sculpture slowly descended, and a pure white coffin rose up. I stepped into the coffin, waiting for them to drive a long nail into my heart.

It seemed someone had barged in."Silence! Don't you know where this place is? Don't disturb the slumber of Lord Primogenitor and the Kindreds!"Kristen tried to silence his men when the guards at the door came rushing in to report."Lord Tybirus, we have visitors.""Wh

    *Leon*I knew Vicky had to leave at some point. Our sweet time together couldn't last forever, but I didn't expect that moment to come so quickly. Although I knew that moment was bound to come, and although I had prepared myself mentally, I still felt lost when it really happened. It seemed like something had been taken away from my heart, and it suddenly became empty.I was actually a particularly timid person who was afraid of loss. The more I remembered those beautiful times, I couldn't help how sad I felt because of them. But now there was no time for me to drown in such emotions. After Vicky left, I immediately arranged a flight and returned to New York in a hurry. After that night, Jaydan never appeared in the office again. I heard from Vicky that they were, in a sense, a similar kind.As a normal human being, I had become a minority instead.Now I felt that the answers to all those questions should be within my family.

    *VICKY*Drip, drip, drip…Blood trickled down onto my face, giving off a deadly alluring aroma. I tried to restrain my desire, but my pupils still slowly turned red.A thought flashed across my mind. I knew exactly what I needed.A tranquilizer.It was the only way to stop my thirst. Every Kindred would carry these bottles with them, but I couldn't find any in my pockets.Why didn't I bring it? I knew better—it was so important. I sighed. Was my brain getting worse from sleeping too long? Then it striked me: where am I?I looked down and saw a sturdy, porcelain bathtub. The blood had already reached my ankles. The fragrance was getting really hard to resist. I couldn't hold out anymore. Fangs slowly appeared in my mouth. I had no choice. This was my nature. It was like a jackal seeing rotten meat.I closed my eyes and took a deep breath to try and get a hold of my desire for blood. When they opened, they immediately fixated on a cross on the other end of the bath.A man was trussed up

    *LEON*I sat at the dining table and looked down at the failed works in front of me. The more I stared, the more I wondered what I was doing wrong as a chef and as a leader. I furrowed my eyebrows and frowned. "What are these?"I could tell Frank was anxious. There was a slight tremor in his stance, and his pupil size increased as he twisted the ends of his perfectly curated mustache.I could also hear his thoughts turning over instead of his head wondering what was going to happen next, and how he was going to afford to replace his son's worn out sports gear if he were docked as a result.I pinched my nose and sighed."Frank, instead of spending all of your time fixing your mustache, why don't you spend some time studying the dishes? This is your job. Take control, or I'll do it for you. Understood?""Understood, chef. I'll take care of it."Frank took out a handkerchief and wiped his sweat. I pushed the food away from myself as his thoughts flooded into my mind's eye. "You're the dev

    *VICKY*Earlier that day…I looked down at the pile of scraps in front of me and pictured the dish forming right in front of me. I reached and opened my pristine tool bag. Before I knew it, I was skillfully slicing whipped cream, trimming the cake base, and baking it. It was almost like I was on autopilot. Finally, I added a cherry to top it all off.The experience was perfect—all that I had ever imagined it would be.The sous chef—Frank, as I came to find out—watched me operate closely. His eyes were fixed on my hands as I curated the desert. I smiled as he inspected the dish from side to side, confident that no matter what I made him, it'd be sure to wow.Suddenly, a sweet, salty smell pressed into my nostrils.This was definitely not the smell of apple tart. Its fragrance was similar to that of roses, but when I smelled it carefully, it also smelt a little like steak that had just been cooked. It was so delectable, and its scent tasted like blood but that much sweeter.Then it click

    *VICKY*The woman pushed herself off the bookshelf, causing a few items to shake, and stared down at Leon with her hands on her hips."You didn't even properly research her! Her resume is clearly forged—what if she's a criminal!? For fucks sake, she could be a murderer! You're a Knightly, she could easily be someone using this to get close enough to kill you, or even worse…get to your fortune!"At this, Leon scoffed and rolled his eyes. He turned his gaze to her, his distaste clear on his face. Whoever she was to him, he didn't care one bit."Her background is clearly written here. She has all of the qualifications required, and judging by the apple tart I tasted earlier, the talent."My heart skipped a beat. He just admitted to liking my dessert. I'm already on the right track."Now, do you have anything else, Osip—"Osip. As in Osip Spenser. It made perfect sense now why she felt entitled enough to grab the resume from Leon's hands and stomp my way. She slammed the paper into my ches

    *VICKY*The man let out a cough and moved against my hold. "L-Let me go…" his voice croaked out."Not until you answer my question," I growled. "Who are you?! How did you break the barrier?!""T-the Blessing—"The Blessing? Shit. He was a church official. I let go, and the man's hands instantly rushed to his neck as he hunched over and coughed continuously."That's quite a grip you've got there," he stated with a smirk once he caught his breath."Sorry," I murmured.That explained the Shadow Form. All Elder church members and assistants had access to the Blessing—it was like a magical key, allowing them entry through any barrier for government purposes. However, it automatically put the user into Shadow Form as a protective strategy for larger-scale matters.Besides businesses and parliamentary buildings, the only other Kindred with barriers were those with seniority. As a superior, I was seen as a viable target for enemies of the clan. The barrier was a way to prevent such individuals

    *Vicky*"Leon, we discussed this last time. Right now, the situation at hand isn't over. Even if we run away, they'll find us. I have to stay.""Alright then, I'll stay with you.""No, Leon, you still have things to do, and your mother wouldn't want to see you waste your life so casually.""You're wrong. During this period, I realized we were all caught in a misunderstanding. You and I always want to carry everything for each other, but we've never thought love is a matter of two people. No matter what happens, we need to face it together. Therefore, I won't leave today. We'll never be separated in the future."Leon grabbed my hand. I stared at the determined look in his eyes and finally let go of all my worries. I nodded."Okay…okay, just as you said, let's go to a new place and start over. No matter what happens, I won't leave you again."I leaned on his shoulder, the happiness sweeping away my exhaustion.Suddenly, a car hurried to the entranc

    *Vicky*Arthur was afraid of death, and now he was so frightened by me that he couldn't say a word.Of course, I was happy to see him like this. I waved my right hand with First Snow and viciously pierced his other leg. In an instant, the freezing air sealed his whole leg. He howled loudly in pain, and now the unbeatable king of the underground was like a lost dog, unable to even escape."Laugh again. Go on, why did you stop?"I slowly slashed his clothes with my claws."No, don't do this! Please let me go!""Let you go? There should be many people who've begged you just like that, right? Have you spared them? You didn't even spare your own brother for the sake of profit, and you wantonly take innocent lives in order to gain your father's favor."Swish. I flicked my claws and tore a piece of flesh from his leg."Ahhh!"Painful screams echoed through the warehouse, but no one could come to his aid now."Do you remember the boy named Lou?

    *Vicky*Men poured in endlessly from all around the containers and docks, forming what seemed to be an endless ocean of people. Despite that, I enjoyed the thrill of the kill. I didn't know how long it had been since I last had such a feeling.The crowd wouldn't stay a crowd for long though. After I killed a few people and created an opening, I flew to the window and used the echoes of the guns for the scout bats to find the snipers who were hidden and shooting at me. I appeared in front of them in an instant, and they, who had thought they were in a safe place, looked at me in surprise as I rushed towards them. The last scene they saw was me waving First Snow to take their heads off.I wandered in Shadow Form and appeared behind them silently, slicing their bodies one by one like cutting a watermelon, and after licking the blood from my lips, I began to get more excited.After cleaning up the borders of the place, I returned to the warehouse and found that the grou

"Leon, if I come back alive, I'll be there to see you, and if I don't make it through the night, I want you to be happy and take Osip and go live somewhere where no one knows you."I took a deep breath, zipped up my backpack, and walked out of the room.Just as I was about to enter the shadows, Jaydan suddenly called out to me."Vicky! Vicky, wait a minute. Don't go yet!"He came running towards me, panting and looking a little panicked."Something's wrong. Leon's been taken!""What? How did this happen?""A large group of people, supposedly Arthur's men, came to the hotel today. They said they were there to take over the hotel business and forced me to hand over all my management access codes.

    *Leon*"Are you wondering how we found out you were scheming something?" Conrad continued, "I know about everything you've done since you arrived here, including that smart-ass little tunnel of yours. Did you really think I didn't know? I knew about it before your mother passed away, and I left it there on purpose."Why? Why couldn't I read the thoughts of the people around me? Not just Conrad, but also Arthur and his subordinates—I couldn't read any of them. How was this possible? They couldn't have professionally trained everyone, could they?Conrad saw my puzzled expression and seemed extremely pleased."Hahaha! Well, well, well, curious as to why your little trick doesn't work anymore, aren't you?"He casually pulled one of his subordinates over and showed me the electronic bracelet on his wrist."This is a blocking bracelet, a small device recently developed by our scientists.
