Chapter Twenty-Nine: I Found You
It was past midnight, and most of Barton had fallen asleep, and Zach drove Benjamin's van through the dimly lit streets.
Zach knew that the hunters hadn't left Barton yet, and the reason was simple, it would be a full moon tomorrow night. While dealing with David the Shapeshifter, Benjamin unleashed a new rumor that there was an Alpha in Barton City. The aliens who left or lurked because of the shock will spread the rumor. A hunter who doesn't want to hunt alpha is not a good hunter.
Of course, it would be foolish to provoke the werewolf clan on a full moon night, but the full moon's forced transformation will reveal where the werewolves are hiding, and if hunters want to discover the identity of the werewolves, tomorrow night is the best time.
While the Hunters were being tortured at the Grande House, Zach had already asked about the traps that the Hunters had laid in Barton's territory. According to the habits of werewolves, the transformation will be in a large area of the woods, avoiding contact with people. The woods south of Grand House, crossed by Highway 27, the woods west of Barton and Newton, and the woods west of Paisteen...... These places have been set up by hunters to track down werewolves.
An herb called aconite grass that can remain in the werewolf's body, leaving traces on the human body even if the transformation is lifted. Once a wolf eats an animal infused with aconite herbs, his human identity is revealed, and the hunter can use this as a clue to discover the entire group.
But they had clearly made a mistake, Benjamin's clan was the only one, wrong, one.
Zach didn't inspect the woods, as he had said before, it was foolish to touch a werewolf when the moon was full, and it was foolish to stay in those woods for three days before the full moon. Because the responsible alpha will check the safety of the transformation place for the safety of the race.
This has made it easier for Zack, who has reduced the number of places he searched, and he has eliminated three hunter bases from torture, and if he can, the vampire will now burp to show his satisfaction at this point. Now he is heading to the last place, because his main target has not yet appeared.
From Route 27 into the South End of Barton, the truck turned into the slip road to the east of Yansheng, leaving the North District, and the street lamp became a luxury, and it often took half a kilometer to see a crooked pole on the side of the road, with a broken lampshade on top.
I don't know how long it took, but the road got narrower and narrower, and the sound of the waves reached Zach's ears. The vampire stopped the car and began to walk in the dark, and five minutes later, a rusty sign was erected on the side of the road - 'Private property, no private entry', and the vampire held out a finger, and the red spark stood out in the darkness. Now we know why Zach ended up here.
Barton is a young city, so it's not uncommon for failed investments to occur. For example, in front of you, a hundred meters away, there is a villa erected by the sea that was abandoned by the owner.
The vampire turned in the darkness, not taking his eyes off the villa in front of him, and began to circle to the left.
A man's voice came to his ears.
"What happened! They didn't answer my call!"
The vampire recognized the voice as the one he had tortured, the hunter who had chosen between 'become a vampire and die' and 'say everything'. Of course, he won't remember betraying his teammates.
"Maybe they shifted. ”
This is the hunter who used fire to make vampires shed a layer of skin.
"Tomorrow, tomorrow we'll go into the city and have a look. ”
The voice speaks with a pronounced pause and inhalation, accompanied by the sound of a bandage tearing. It should be Rivenci Hurricane, who has not yet healed from his gunshot wound.
"Where's that woman?"
The vampire had circled to the left side of the villa, and his steps stopped, looking at the reef in the darkness ahead.
"I don't know, it's outside. ”
"Hey, Louise, do you want a cold, come in!"
The vampire watched as the woman standing on the reef turned her head to the sound of shouts, the night breeze by the sea ruffling her loose curls. Louise gathered the blanket around her, ignored the cries in the villa, and continued to turn her head, looking at the dark sea, not knowing what she was thinking.
Our vampire, Zack, frowned, why is Louise here?
"Louise. Zack's figure was hidden in the cracks between the reefs, but he didn't go up, not because he was afraid that he would be spotted by the lights, but because if he took one step further, he would be wiped out.
Louise seemed to shudder, and turned her head vigilantly, there was no one else on the reef but her. Louise smiled helplessly, her slender fingers pulling the blown hair behind her ears.
"Louise. ”
Louise was stunned again, she looked around, moving her feet, and even craned her neck to look down in front of the reef, crashed by the night waves, and there was still no one. Louise sighed wistfully, but this sigh was heard by no one but vampires.
"Left, below. The vampire reminded this beautiful woman who didn't know what she was thinking.
Louise's big eyes were stunned, and this time, she confirmed that she was not having auditory hallucinations for some reason!
"You ......"
Louise lowered her head and looked down at Zack standing in the gap from the reef, her surprise call stopped by the vampire.
"Go over there. Zach looked up at Louise, who had a sparkle in her eye, and gestured.
Louise blinked, and the person in the gap was gone.
Louise jumped off the reef, and someone in the villa shouted, "Hey, don't get out of the confines of this house!"
Another voice of normal volume said, "Let her go, there will be no vampires in the wolves with alpha." ”
Well, common sense is how to disappoint people in unexpected places.
Away from the reef of the villa, Zach leaned against the cold black rocks and watched Louise walking towards him with a blanket, "Why are you here?" ”
Louise's joy at seeing Zach was blown away by a sentence.
"Why are you here!" Louise stared into the vampire's eyes.
Zach frowned, not ready to answer Louise's question, and asked persistently, "Why, you're here." ”
Because of the cold night breeze on the seaside, Louise, whose lips were a little pale, bit her lower lip and looked at the vampire quietly: "Why ask, with your red eyes, it's not faster." ”
"Do you want me to twist your will?" Zach looked at the woman, and there was already red in his eyes.
Louise didn't speak, between her slender eyebrows, the eyebrows slowly approached each other, and her bitten lower lip was trembling slightly, but she didn't look away from Zack's eyes, and a little disappointment was forming between the eyebrows of this beautiful woman.
Red occupied Louise's field of vision, and the vampire's voice, cold and calm: "Sue me, why are you with the hunter." ”
Louise's disappointment didn't show up in front of Zach after all, and Louise's face became calm, looking at the pair of red eyes.
"I was scared. Louise didn't say anything, and began to answer the questions that the vampire had asked at the behest of the Eyes of Charm.
"Every day, every night. I'm scared. ”
"In the crowd, I don't know if the people around me have become some kind of monster. On a road where there are no people, I fear that something will suddenly appear behind me that consumes me. ”
"I'm getting paranoid. Whenever I get home, I check to see if anything has been moved. Whenever I talk to someone, I don't dare to look them in the eye. Whenever I unintentionally touch someone else, I have to carefully remember if the other person is cold......"
Zach's brow furrowed.
"I'm scared, I'm scared of everything, people, things, day, night, streets, buildings, I don't know what to do. ”
Maybe this is the time for a normal man to say, 'You can go back to the House of Grande'. Zack, the vampire, opened his mouth.
"And you. ”
Zach shut his mouth.
"You say, 'If you don't feel safe, you should trust your instincts and get out of here. (ii, Chapter 5)
Louise's calm expression became excited!
"What kind of man would say such things to a woman!"
Zach's brow furrowed even deeper, and Louise didn't stop.
"Of course I'm insecure because you won't tell me anything!What do you mean by 'your offspring?!Will I still be myself?! What am I to you?!
"So I left! I left the only place where I wouldn't wake up in my dreams, I wouldn't worry about touching people, I wouldn't worry about being hurt by monsters!
Louise squatted on the damp and cold ground with her shoulders crossed, her hair covering most of her face, her voice filled with sadness and grievance.
"So I went to James. Although he is an overly idealistic and unrealistic person, at least he is honest and responsible. I just want to borrow a little bit of security. ”
Zack's brows furrowed, and he looked at the squatting woman in front of him with some helplessness.
"I think no one is safe. Louise looked up, her already tear-stained eyes looking at Zach, "I'm just happy, I've helped him at least a little." Then I realized that I shouldn't have pinned my security on someone else at all. ”
Crystal tears crossed Louise's face, but her face, grievance and sadness, had disappeared and turned into a somewhat cold and hard firmness.
"So, I found the lucky, undead, hunter in James's mouth, Riwench. At the very least, I'm going to learn to protect myself!"
Louise's misty eyelashes were stirring, she had already explained why she was here, she had never intended to show her vulnerability in front of Zack again in the first place, and she had already realized that the vampire had really used the Pupil of Charm on her.
Louise held on to the blanket on her body and slowly stood up, she avoided Zach's gaze, not wanting her to be disappointed in the eyes of the man in front of her.
"I answered your question, it's time for you to answer yours. Louise's voice calmed down.
The sound of the waves floated in the air, like a rhythmic heartbeat, all together. In the damp and cold night, our vampire Zack looked at Louise, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and the stars reflected in his light green eyes: "I'm here for you." ”
Louise's gaze could no longer avoid the vampire, and under her long eyelashes, there were stars.
"Now that I've found you, it's time to go home. ”
