Back at the nightclub, Charles was seated in front of the bartender ready for his order to be taken.
"Hello Charles, you are here earlier than usual, where are Angela and Nicole?", the bartender asked, trying to be friendly.
"I left them both at Nicole's place. Please can I get two human blood bags?", Charles said, placing his order.
"Sure coming right up", the bartender said, as he quickly left to get his fresh human blood. As he did Charles rested his head on one of his hands. His mind was still filled with what David had told him about the mystery vampire girl being linked to the vampire hybrids.
"Here you go Charles, two human blood bags as requested", the bartender said, placing the bags in front of him.<
Charles continued sipping his drink of human blood. He was now quietly reflecting on his next line of action. He couldn't go back to Nicole's apartment to see her tonight because he had agreed earlier to let the girls have some alone time together. Now he wished he hadn't done that, he would bring up the matter to Nicole tomorrow.The next thought on his head was the identity of the mystery female vampire. Now he had a way of finding her based on the intel of the bartender. He had to look for a lady in any club making large orders of human blood bags, dressed in black with a face cap and sunshades. Of course he knew the intel is top secret and he had to be very discreet in his investigation because the vampire hierarchy was also actively investigating the case and also not to implicate the bartender. It won't be easy finding her but he had to visit as many nightclubs to see if he could find h
It was now dawn at Nicole's house. The previous night had been blissful with Angela, too blissful in fact and Nicole loved it.She had gotten up and made her way to the bathroom to pee leaving Angela still sleeping on the bed."I can feel it, it's going to be a wonderful day!", Nicole said to herself excitedly. She had a lot to look forward to today. She was going to have the opportunity to do what she loves doing at work- which was drawing wonderful tattoo art on the body of her clients. Above all she was also going to reunite with Lucas after spending a day away from him. She just couldn't wait for the time to arrive!She heard a knock on her door, after which she heard her doorbell ring while she was still in the bathroom. Normally her front door
Charles remained quiet after he had his question to give room for Nicole to clarify herself. He had asked Nicole three urgent questions she needed to give answers too."I want to say I am very sorry firstly for lying with your names. You are my friends and I didn't mean to lie with them intentionally. It was a big mistake on my part and for that I am sorry", Nicole said, looking at her feet."That fateful night some few weeks back, I bought 12 human blood bags from the night club and I bought it for a good cause", she said slowly. Her confident way of speaking and composure wasn't yet back."There were some group of vampires who couldn't come into the club because they would be judged for how they were, so they begged me to help them purchase
It had been a busy day at the tattoo shop with a lot of clients coming in for their body art work. The day had been stressful but finally they were done as they headed back to Nicole's apartment in Charles' car.It was Angela's idea. The plan was simple, Angela and Charles were to escort her back to her apartment and stay with her there until she was ready to leave for Lucas's place and that was what they did. They were now back at Nicole's place."What time will you be leaving for Lucas' place?", Angela asked, as she sat on the couch in the living room. Charles was sitting on another couch watching television."I'll leave by 7 PM", Nicole said as she made her way down the passageway of her apartment to her bedroom. She had gone there to freshen up and ch
Charles looked at her and kept quiet. His silence was the positive affirmation that he was."How could you even think of such Charles, I am totally disappointed in you!", she yelled at him."We are friends, we are family! We literally have each other's back and have been totally honest with ourselves!", she yelled trying to convince him of Nicole's innocence."My story hasn't finished yet, there is still more I haven't yet revealed and this is very important",Charles said to her calmly.Angela could tell from his calm disposition it was something he had thought about and arrived at a conclusion already. A conclusion that was against her best friend, Nicole.
They waited in the car about 10 minutes after which Nicole emerged out of the club, carrying two nylon carrier bags. The nylon was opaque, so they couldn't see what was exactly inside but they could make out the shape of the items it contained - it was human blood bags!Charles and Angela were in shock as they both watched her speechless as she opened the booth of her car and dropped them in, before getting into her car and driving off.Charles didn't utter a word in the car as he started the engine and quickly followed Nicole trailing her at the back.Angela was still in a state of shock as she struggled to make sense of what she had just witnessed. She was already getting emotional as she struggled to control her emotions while taking deep breaths.
"Okay, I'll tell you all you need to know", Charles said, looking at her."I always trusted Nicole as you did, I never had any reason not to. She was my friend, your best friend and our colleague. We both knew she was different when she rejected several vampires that wanted to date her, especially my late friend Smith", he said, remembering Smith was 1 of 12 vampires that first got missing one fateful night, some time ago."After I learnt of the death of Smith and the others that died with him that night, I remembered disclosing to you and Nicole in that same night we spent together at Sir Paul's mansion, that there was a rumour of a super vampire; a vampire hybrid and that the vampire hybrid could be the possible cause of the mysterious deaths"."I remembered
"What do you mean exactly?", Angela asked, seeking clarity. She knew what he meant but she was too scared to even utter the words. It would shatter her soul and live a void in her no one will ever be able to fill. There was only one Nicole and forever it would remain so."We have no other choice...", Charles said, pausing, as he looked away from Angela, seeing the pain already in her eyes. He couldn't stand to look her straight in the eyes as he planned to utter his words. There was no easy way to say this but it had to be said."We have to identify her as the mystery female vampire to the vampire hierarchy, that is what we must do now with Nicole", he said quietly, mustering all the courage he had to say it. It wasn't easy for him to say, nothing had been easy for him tonight. But he had had to swim the shark infested
