Another night passed and the burns on Samson's skin stopped bleeding. However, he is still in a lot of pain.Fortunately, this abandoned house still had an old water pipe left, otherwise, he wouldn't have known where to get the water to mix the blood and clean the garlic water on himself.The clothes rubbed against his damaged skin, making him wince and frown every time he moved.Trying to move for a while to get used to the pain, he quickly left the shelter and went to the street where the apartment complex for the rich was located.Seeing a lovely figure holding a rather large bag across the street, he quickly followed.It was early morning, the dew had not yet cleared and everyone in the apartment building was still busy preparing breakfast, so the hallways were deserted.Samson's moving speed was faster than the observation of the two security guards, so he easily entered the building without having to show any documents.After just one day of not seeing her, he missed her so much
Lucasta's hands suddenly grabbed the bed sheet so tightly that it became wrinkled. The nightmare was tormenting her, causing her extreme fear and pain.After struggling for a long time, her heavy eyelids gradually opened, bringing her back to reality to find out that it was all just a dream.However, the faint masculine scent still lingering in her hair helped her remember what had just happened.Reflexively, she threw off the blanket, got down, and moved slowly around the house to listen.When she was sure she was the only one in the apartment, she felt secure and went back to her room, changed, and prepared to go to work.The moment she came to the dressing table to comb her hair, she realized there was a letter with extremely familiar handwriting.- Samson.Her trembling hand reached out and lifted the letter. Perhaps he was in a hurry so his handwriting was not very neat, and perhaps he cried so there were smudged ink stains scattered all over the page torn from her notebook. The
After two days, William held a press conference to announce that he had found his niece, who was also the daughter of the late director Walter, who had been missing for ten years.Although Lucasta was very afraid of crowds, she could not help but follow William's wishes because, as he said, this was the fastest way to notify everyone that she still existed.Furthermore, he wanted her to be recognized by the upper class to start great strides in the future.Outside the press conference venue, reporters hunting for news were present early.Everyone wants to take the first photos of the official appearance of the daughter of the late head of the Institute of Medical Sciences and the late famous actress Sharon.The moment the luxury car stopped, the lens simultaneously pointed to the back door.Security forces tried to keep their distance, separating the crowd to make way for the main character.Lucasta clung tightly to William's arm and looked down at the red carpet as she walked.In her
The sudden return of Walter's only daughter, who had been missing for ten years, caused a stir in public opinion in the country.News reports continuously mentioned this issue and images from the press conference kept appearing on the television screen.- Please tell me the truth. What happened recently? You weren't with Lucasta after leaving that house, right? How could she so easily follow a stranger and leave you behind? – Harvey took the remote from Samson's hand, pressed the off button, and asked seriously.Knowing clearly that this friend was very smart, Samson didn't hide it anymore because he needed help from Harvey.After pursing his lips and pondering for a long time, he told Harvey half the truth, that Lucasta had discovered his status as a vampire, as well as knowing that he was not her brother.However, he only said that because she saw him drinking blood, she knew and ran away from him, but did not reveal how tragically he was harmed by her.Fortunately, before coming he
Murmurs filled with fear and anxiety echoed throughout the large room.The security team quickly used flashlights to check the incident and spoke up to reassure and ask everyone to stay in place and not move around.- Don't be scared, I'm here. – Samson hugged Lucasta's waist when he realized she intended to run away.- Please let me go. – Lucasta's voice became trembling.She couldn't see anything, all around was darkness. The hand of the man who was once very close to her now did not bring her a feeling of trust or warmth, but only fear and coldness even though his hand was separated by a thick layer of cloth.- I'll talk quickly. Listen carefully, Lucasta, the person who wants to harm you is your uncle. The car accident, the poisoned cake, and the murderer in the hotel were all caused by your uncle. Be careful with him. – Samson leaned close to her ear and whispered.As soon as he finished speaking, the light suddenly came back on. Very quickly, he let her go and stepped back, incr
- Are you sure? – Harvey was skeptical so he asked again. - Sure. Harvey closed his eyes for a moment and then opened them. He didn't expect that that person would appear again after thirty years. Didn't he die in the explosion a long time ago? Just one year after Vincent disappeared, the villa in the west of the city was suddenly destroyed by fire at night. There were no survivors and the bodies could not be identified, so the authorities had to bury them collectively. That mansion was where Thomas once imprisoned Maris and inside it was a quite modern research room. - I thought he was dead. - Evil people live very long lives. You can reconfirm it. Immediately, Harvey ran into the room, took out the laptop, and turned it on. After just a few operations on the keyboard, William's face was edited back to his youth, and that was Thomas's face, not anyone else's. - I have a feeling that behind this person there are many... many... - Guilty. Samson interrupted Harvey and then w
With extremely fast speed, and the guards deliberately relaxed their guard, Samson easily approached Lucasta's bedroom after mistakenly visiting a few empty rooms.As soon as he climbed in from the window, he saw his little blonde girl curled up in a fluffy blanket.The deep love and nostalgia overflowed so much that he couldn't control himself and rushed to her side.But when his hand was about to touch her shoulder, he stopped.Lucasta's steady breathing showed that she was sleeping. However, occasionally she still called out for help, her hands unconsciously clutching the blanket, sweat pouring out all over her body.- Did you have a nightmare? Don't be scared, I'm here.Samson quickly grabbed her hand and as a subconscious habit, Lucasta grabbed his hand, held it close to her face, and continued to sleep.Samson wished he could hug her and run back to the forest right now.He was afraid that if he did that, once she woke up, she would panic and most likely do crazy things that wou
When the clock struck eleven at night, Samson immediately jumped out the window and moved quickly through the streets to get to the villa.He really wanted to know Lucasta's situation so he couldn't wait until later. The image of her having a fever, shaking, and being scared because of a nightmare constantly appeared in his mind.After a few seconds of hanging outside the window and not hearing any movement inside, he slowly opened the window and walked in.Under the dim light of the desk lamp, he felt sad when he saw her thin shoulders trembling under the thick blanket.- Lucasta.Samson called softly and rushed to her side. However, when he was a few steps away from the bed, his entire body was covered in an iron net, and then a bucket of garlic water poured down on him.The burning sensation made him scream in pain and then fall to his knees.At this moment, the girl on the bed also sat up and looked toward Samson.He was stunned to see a completely unfamiliar face, not his Lucasta
Time passes quickly, four seasons pass one after another. Every day, Samson and Lucasta worked together to clean the two castles, grow flowers, and vegetables, cook, and paint. Whatever they do, they do it together. Although Samson and Lucasta did not know whether Maris and the owls would return to their old place or not, he and she still took care of the castle opposite and kept it clean. These days, Lucasta keeps singing all day. Whenever Samson caught her singing and teasing the wild cats and whispering to them that her husband was about to become human again, he felt a pain in his heart. He was also very happy because the day he was free from the curse was near, but every time he helped her draw blood, his heart felt like someone was cutting it with a knife. - It's time to take the antidote. – Lucasta grabbed a syringe and a glass, ran to Samson, and held out her arm in front of him. Samson smiled, gently rubbed her pale skin, then carefully inserted the needle, drawing out a
During their last days in the city, Samson took Lucasta shopping as well as taking her out to eat at delicious, famous restaurants and go for walks to ease her sadness over Harvey's sudden passing. He knew that for her, Harvey was no different than an older brother.Tonight, he took her to the banks of the Rose River, reminiscing about memories. The river heard his and her prayers but ignored Harvey and Aurora's wishes. Or maybe their wishes were also accepted but in a different way.- Aurora said that she and Harvey once went to this riverbank and made a wish. But now…- They're still together.Lucasta nodded, trying to swallow her tears. She is also trying to believe so, but she is too heartbroken and it is difficult for her to accept that she has lost two people she loves.- Tomorrow, William will pay the price for what he did. – She looked out at the vast river and spoke softly.- Uh. Tomorrow, we will return to our home.He intertwined his hand with her small hand and squeezed it
After a month, Harvey and Samson's bodies gradually recovered, and Lucasta's legs could also walk normally. However, Bella warned that with every season change, she will still be tormented by pain.However, for Lucasta, that pain is nothing when she has gone through so many incidents. As long as Samson is by her side, her heart is filled with happiness.Aurora's passing left endless sadness for those who loved her. And everyone understood that it was a deep hole in Harvey's heart.Although he still smiled and talked to everyone, his sad eyes proved everything. Previously, Harvey's eyes sparkled like the stars, containing no sadness.- When do you plan to return to the forest? – Harvey had just rearranged Aurora's beauty accessories, jewelry, and photos and asked.- This weekend, when that guy is sentenced. – Samson replied.Harvey didn't ask anything more, continuing to focus on the boxes in front of him. This is a way for him to ease his feelings of missing his lover. He arranged the
When the police thought they had deactivated all the bombs, a young police officer suddenly discovered that there was a bomb disguised in a container and the time to explode was being measured in seconds.He looked around in panic, screaming for everyone to leave, but his voice was only loud enough for a few people nearby to hear.Luckily, he saw a speaker thrown nearby, so he quickly picked it up and shouted.- The bomb is about to explode, get out of here quickly. The bomb is about to explode.Hearing the warning sound, no one told anyone, but both the police and the hunters simultaneously stopped fighting and rushed out through the doors.Aurora and the hunter she was trying to hold back were no exception, but her strength was exhausted so she only took a few steps before falling to the floor and unable to stand up.The scene before her eyes faded, and she could only see a few people running away in the near distance.Quite a distance from the factory, Lucasta could still hear the
When the clock struck seven o'clock in the evening, it was time for the police to depart. The car driven by Michael carried two couples leading the convoy towards the East factory.He originally thought that there would be some of William's henchmen guarding the place, but when they arrived, no one appeared even though he rang the bell several times.And what surprised him more was that the gate was unlocked.- Rush in.After Michael's command, the police team rushed through the door first. They held guns and walked step by step, looking around before signaling the people behind to enter.Samson and Harvey could see through the dark, so they both quickly moved to the electrical switch locations. Soon, the electricity in the entire factory area was turned on.- Captain, there's a lot of bombs. – Two or three policemen spoke up at the same time when they saw countless bombs placed everywhere.At the same time, Harvey and Samson also approached the place where Maris was being held. Heari
With support from police chief Jony, the next day, early in the morning, excavators and policemen gathered at the designated location, where a terrible fire occurred thirty years ago.Michael stood next to the scene and supervised the digging process. His face became darker and darker as he saw more and more human bones piled up.In his life as a police officer, this was the most cruel case he had ever participated in and had ever known. William is a devil, not human.- I'm listening. – Michael spoke up as soon as he picked up the phone.- Inspection notices have been sent to production facilities within the city and surrounding areas. – Bevis's voice rang out on the other end of the phone.- Good. Just prepare yourself mentally.After speaking, Michael immediately hung up the phone and approached the scene to observe. Among those shattered skeletons, there were also the skeletons of children.- William, you have contributed to the serious decline of this country's population.Accordi
At exactly seven o'clock in the evening, Samson and Lucasta also landed at the airport. Welcoming them was Michael.Seeing Michael, both of them quickly approached and followed him to the car.The car sped away and stopped in front of the villa gate. Lucasta recognized the two people standing nearby as Harvey and Aurora. Suddenly, a feeling of insecurity rose in her heart.- Sister Aurora. – Lucasta hugged Aurora as soon as she got out of the car.- It's been hard for you.- No, I feel like I just came back from a trip. Well, let me tell you this story.After saying that, Lucasta grabbed Aurora's hand and pulled her into the house.As she walked, she told the doctor about the village with people in the shape of vampires and the blood that Anatole bought to use as food for them, to help relieve their pain.The secret meeting took place in a tense atmosphere as the three of them told Samson and Lucasta about Maris' disappearance and suspected that it was related to William.Samson could
After finishing lunch, Aurora and Harvey went to the slums to visit the family of a boy with a strange illness. The boy's parents did not show any strange symptoms, but their child had this terrible disease.Although today was not sunny, because the boy felt an inferiority complex because of his appearance plus the pain was tortured, the boy kept hiding in the dark corner of the shabby house.When he saw Aurora and Harvey approaching, he raised his innocent eyes to look at them.- I bought a gift for you, come here. – Aurora put the bag of fruits and vegetables in front of him and seduced him.The boy reached out his hand, took it, and then cowered back in the corner, saying nothing.His lips were always peeling and bleeding, making him reluctant to open his mouth except when eating and drinking.Looking at this scene, Harvey's heart was hit hard, and painful as if someone was squeezing his heart.- When he was born, he was also stout, his skin was glossy and very cute. I didn't think
As scheduled, after three days, Samson and Lucasta were present at Anatole's villa.Fortunately for Samson, the prime minister chose to depart in the afternoon, when the sunlight was fading.Seeing the handsome guy wearing thick clothes and a hat like a terrorist, Anatole's face showed surprise.- The weather changed so he caught a cold. – Lucasta quickly explained.- When I return to my country, I will be fine. – Samson said.Anatole nodded and invited the two guests into his car. Today, he wants to lead them to a place that he has always hidden, a place full of pain.The car passed through bustling roads and drove straight to the forest about two hundred and thirty kilometers away from the capital.When they arrived, darkness had covered everything. Through the light of the car's headlights, Lucasta realized that the road they were driving on was full of mud, plastic bags and empty bottles were scattered along both sides, looking no different from a landfill.- Samson…- It's okay.
