It was after eight o'clock in the morning but William had no intention of going to the office. He still sat quietly in the study room and stared at the photo of the girl in a red dress. Thirty years have passed and she is still the same, unchanged except that she knows how to dress and uses a bit of makeup. - Maris, if you weren't a vampire, maybe I would keep you by my side, cherish and take care of you like my wife. Unfortunately, you have something I need to get, which is... your blood. He turned off the phone, leaned back against the back of the swivel chair, and closed his eyes. That year, he took her home when he saw her in an accident on the road and gradually developed feelings for her. However, the day he caught her stealing blood from the laboratory to drink, a crazy idea appeared in his mind. - Dear Sir. The sudden call did not startle William because he was waiting for this person. Just now, although he heard a knock on the door, he remained silent, not wanting to a
As soon as Michael entered the office, Jony called him to his office. He guessed Jony already knew something.Henry discovered that the police were secretly investigating the activities of the hematology and blood transfusion institute, so how could Jony not know?Perhaps someone in the institute spread this information because his subordinates were all trustworthy people.- Hey, why are you investigating the hematology institute? Did I give you an order? – Jony leaned forward, clasped his hands, and looked seriously at Michael.- Ah, I assumed that the vampires would buy blood from there, so I secretly investigated. During the time we increased patrols at night, there were no disappearances, and there was only one recent murder, so I assumed they had to find another source of blood, and there…- Yes, your secret is that William knows everything.Michael took a deep breath and bowed his head, not knowing what else to say.William has a lot of henchmen, Michael doesn't know where they
After collecting more evidence about the illegal blood sales at the hematology and blood transfusion institute, Michael personally called the director to ask him for an appointment.Of course, the director of the hematology institute quickly agreed. However, when he heard the suggestion from the policeman, his face turned stupid.- What do you need to buy blood for? – The director asked curiously.- None of your business. Just answer whether you agree or disagree.Michael's elegant appearance and words made the head of the hematology institute quite upset because, after all, he was old enough to be Michael's father and uncle.But because he was in Michael's grasp, he couldn't scold him. Now that Michael told him to kneel and worship him, he did as well.- Of course, I agree, but you also have to keep your promise and destroy that evidence. – The director nodded miserably.- Sure. By the way, to let you know, the General Inspection Department is about to have a surprise inspection, so
- Although he wanted to have my contact number and be closer, I refused because I saw that he was quite close to William and was also William's customer. I was afraid that he would find out something from me and that William would also know. After all, at that time, I was hiding from William that my father had successfully concentrated the blood. – Aurora shrugged and said.- Did you say Anatole was William's customer? What did he buy from William? – Lucasta asked.- Medical masks, medical gloves, and some accessories in the medical industry.Next, Aurora said that in addition to working at the medical science institute and running the business and production facilities that the late director Walter and his wife left behind, William also runs his own business.He has a factory specializing in the production of medical supplies located in the East of this city, very large, with a large production team.Not only did he provide goods domestically, but he also exported them abroad, earnin
The result of Samson and Lucasta's last night of prowling was the discovery of two more cases of smuggling and consumption of stolen goods.Although the list still had names from neighboring provinces, Michael suggested they stop and rest for the time being, waiting until the day William shipped the goods to the airport for Anatole.Michael also now places all doubts on this prime minister. No head of state visits another country so often.Even if he was worried about the goods, he could still send someone else to replace him, so why did he have to go himself like that?- Lie with me a little longer, I'm not hungry yet.Waking up after a good night's sleep, Lucasta still did not leave the bed but snuggled her head into Samson's arms, reaching out to hug him tightly, not letting him go make breakfast.Calantha once told her that if two people saw each other every day and were close to each other every day, they would gradually feel bored.However, she felt that Calantha was wrong, she
After receiving an invitation card from Calantha with Michael's help, Samson and Lucasta successfully boarded the plane.Although Lucasta wanted to see the floating clouds drifting close by, this flight departed in the evening, so she could only see the city with thousands of sparkling lights gradually shrinking and then pitch black.She felt so happy because before returning to the old forest, she experienced a long flight with him, across many lands and great seas. She will consider this a trip of a newly married couple.- I don't feel like I'm flying, it's like the plane is standing still. – She whispered, loud enough for the person next to her to hear.- Uh, if you feel like you're flying, I'm afraid you'll be worried for hours. – Samson nodded in agreement.When both of them left the territory, Maris also came to find William according to his previous appointment.He kept delaying, so she told herself that if he didn't keep that promise today, she would force him because if she k
- Lucasta.A girl's voice made Lucasta and Samson turn around at the same time. Amidst the crowded crowd, she saw the beautiful face of Michael's sister.Although Lucasta had never met Bella as an adult, because he saw her photo hanging in the house, Lucasta quickly recognized her.- Miss Bella.Lucasta pulled Samson and ran towards Bella and when she arrived, she immediately let go of his hand and hugged the girl opposite.Luckily, Bella lives and works here, otherwise, she and Samson still wouldn't be able to go to France because Michael hasn't found anyone to ask for help picking them up, booking hotel rooms, and most importantly, buying blood.- Michael sent me your picture. You look much prettier in real life than in the picture. – Bella said excitedly.- You are also very beautiful. Michael said his sister was the most beautiful girl in France.Bella lightly pinched Lucasta's cheek then turned to Samson and bowed to him.She heard the thrilling story about this vampire from her
As soon as it was dawn, Lucasta got out of bed, pushed the door open, and walked out to the balcony, looking around.The Eiffel Tower, the romantic Seine River, and the boulevards made her feel like she was dreaming.Previously, even though her family was very rich, her parents were always busy with work and never took her abroad to travel, only occasionally going to parties and going to some neighboring provinces for a change of atmosphere.And after that death trip, she no longer had the opportunity to sit in the same car with them anymore. She had forgotten them for the past ten years.- Lucasta woke up early today, I'm afraid it will rain all day.As soon as Samson finished speaking, it started raining and that made Lucasta's face sad, like a flat tire. She reluctantly turned back and crawled under the blanket, continuing to curl up like a lazy cat.- I didn't do it on purpose. – Samson gently stroked her hair and said.- I know, I'm angry at the weather, not angry at France, not
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.
