All Chapters of Shadows of Bloodlust: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

"Who?" asked Alex impatiently. He wanted to know who exactly was behind all this."That person is Lucius. He's a young scientist who's very eager to carry out the king's orders." Hector mentioned."Lucius?" she exclaimed in disbelief."Wait! How can that be? I didn't see what you said when I held Lucius' hand. On the contrary, I saw him being sacrificed. He was one of the many scientists forced to become guinea pigs. I saw it very clearly. Alex said, still unable to believe that Lucius was the person her father was referring to.Hector smiled slightly at his son's explanation. He knew, of course, why, the memories of Lucius that Alex had seen were only when Lucius had been forced to become a guinea pig. Whereas Lucius' earlier memories were not visible at all.It was all because Lucius had some kind of memory protection. If his body detected that there were vampires or witches who could read his memories, those memories were automatically blocked."Of course you cannot see everything

"How about we try and make him remember, Dad?" Alex suggested. "If he remembers who he really is, maybe he'll side with us and fight Lucius." Hector shook his head."It's too risky, Alex. Lucius must have taken precautions to prevent Victoria from remembering her past. If we try to revive her memories, Lucius will know and he will be furious. He'll kill us all.""Then what are we going to do, Father?" Alex asked desperately.Hector looked up into the dark sky. He searched the shining stars for answers. He felt there was no hope for them."There is no other way, Alex. We have to sacrifice Victoria." Hector said with a hollow voice."Sacrifice? You mean kill her?" Alex asked incredulously.Hector nodded. "Yes, Alex. It's the only way to defeat Lucius. We have to kill Victoria in front of him. That will make her angry and weak. That will give us the chance to attack him."Alex did not agree with his father's plan. He couldn't imagine killing the woman he loved with his own hands. Even fo

Alex felt the explosion that shook Lucius' car. He saw flames and smoke rising from inside the car. He stopped running, feeling scared and sad. What happened to Victoria? Is she still alive? Did she manage to escape from Lucius?He had no time to think. He saw several other black cars following Lucius' car. They were also carrying guns and shooting at Alex and Hector. Alex immediately took cover behind a tree, while returning fire."Alex! How are you?" Hector shouted from across the street. He also took cover behind a parked car."I'm fine, Hector! What about you?" Alex replied."I'm fine too, Alex! But we need to get out of here fast! There are too many of them!" Hector said."We can't just leave, Hector! We have to check on Victoria! I can't leave her!" Alex insisted."Alex, I understand how you feel. But we have to be realistic. Victoria is most likely gone. The car exploded, Alex. It exploded!" Hector tried to advise Alex."Don't say that, Hector! I'm sure Victoria is alive! I hav

Finally, after thinking for a while, Alex and Hector decide to help Victoria and Lucius to stop The Syndicate. They feel that they have a moral responsibility to protect the world from a terrible threat. They also wanted to know the fate of Lucius, who had dared to sacrifice himself for the truth.Victoria was relieved and thanked Alex and Hector. She said that they had to move quickly, before The Syndicate launched their attack. She also said that she had contacts in The Order who could help them find Lucius.They leave the hospital and head to a secret place that Victoria showed them. There, they meet a man named Marcus, who is one of The Order's agents. Marcus tells them that Lucius is being held in a secret facility of The Syndicate located on a remote island in the Indian Ocean. He also tells them that The Syndicate plans to unleash their biological weapons on several major cities in the world within 24 hours.Marcus gives them a map showing the location of the facility. He also

I will try to help you continue this story. This is the part I added:Alex and Hector manage to defeat Natasha and get into the torture chamber. They see Lucius tied to a chair with wounds on his body. They immediately untied him and hugged him."Lucius, are you okay?" asked Alex worriedly."I'm fine, thanks for coming," Lucius replied weakly."We're not leaving you, buddy," said Hector happily."We need to get out of here, The Syndicate must know we're here," said Alex."Alright, let's go," said Lucius.They ran to the helicopter that was waiting for them. Victoria saw them coming and smiled with relief. She opened the helicopter door and helped them get in."Lucius, I'm glad you're safe," Victoria said with emotion."Victoria, I apologize for making you worry," Lucius said."It's okay, the important thing is that we are all safe," Victoria said.They hugged and cried together. They felt grateful for escaping from The Syndicate. They also hoped that they could find a way to stop the
