Michael was standing stunned by the table where he had just sat with his brother. He watched Sam go, and he didn't care that everyone in the restaurant was staring at him.
What had Sam just said? Michael couldn't believe it. That was absolutely impossible! Michael had seen with his own eyes that the vampires were destroyed! He had seen with his own eyes what was left of Paul and Dwayne! Paul was nothing more than a skeleton, and you could only identify the tall, blonde vampire by his clothes.
Dwayne was still recognizable, but his head was torn off in the explosion and one of his hands was detached from his arm. Back then Michael and his grandfather had freed David's body from the antlers; David looked so innocent and peaceful at the moment of his final death, almost as if he was relieved to be finally allowed to leave this world.
Back then Michael had felt nothing but pity for the leader of the Lost Boys. How had David become what he was?
Later that night Michael and his grandfather dug three graves behind the house. There, David, Dwayne, and Paul should get their final resting place. After the graves were done, the two went back to the almost destroyed house and wrapped the remains of the vampires in old sheets that Lucy had picked out in the meantime.
Micheal was certain he would never be able to forget the sight of the three vampires he had sought to friendship with as long as he lived. Michael couldn't classify his feelings at the time.
Was he relieved that the whole haunt was over now? Did he feel hate because David wanted to drag him into this darkness? Maybe it was grief because he had lost his new friend, or it annoyed him that he had thrown away the offer of eternal youth. After all, it was a very tempting offer! Didn't people generally strive to stay young forever?
Michael simply didn't know what he was feeling at the time, but it was as if an important part of him was lost forever, gone with the vampires! Michael was definitely horrified at how undignified he and his grandfather had dragged the remains of the vampires into their graves.
He often wondered if every deceased person deserved at least a few nice words at the end of his life, no matter what had become of him. After all, the Lost Boys were young, mortal men once!
Michael was only twenty years old at the time and was no longer a child. He wasn't stupid and realized that his grandfather knew more about the vampires than he wanted to admit. The old man refused to talk about it, taking his knowledge of the dark side of Santa Carla into the grave.
The old man, however, had sent Edgar and Alan home after the vampires had been destroyed, he didn't use very kind words. It was clear to see that he absolutely disliked them. Only then did the old man immediately had pulled off David's body from the antlers with Michael's help.
That night, of course, Sam was not at all enthusiastic about his grandfather's behavior. After all, Edgar and Alan were the only friends he had had in Santa Carla. Ultimately, however, he didn't say much to defend them, since he was just happy that his brother was saved.
After Max bit the grass that night and Michael, Star, and Laddie were finally free, Michael quickly noticed that his feelings for Star had changed. He was nowhere near as drawn to her as before. At the time, however, he could not explain this change.
Actually, Michael expected that his girlfriend, who just stayed with them, should be very happy that she was now free of David and the others, and that she was, initially. However, the young woman's feeling of happiness did not last very long.
It hadn't been a week since she started crying in sleep and calling for David, and while she was awake, she talked a lot about the vampire. She never said it directly, but from the choice of words Michael could tell how much she missed him, and to be honest, Michael missed that sarcastic asshole too!
The sarcasm was only a small part that made David's character. The leader of the Lost Boys had a lot of knowledge, humor, and serenity. That must have been because he was probably much older than he actually looked. He must have experienced a lot in all the time he had lived, as a human being, and then as a vampire.
After the massacre of the Surf Nazis all those years ago, David had visited Michael at home. Michael could never explain why David had asked for this conversation, but for some reason, it was important to the vampire.
After Michael had let him into his room, which required real persuasion from David, the two had been talking for a while. He had admitted to Michael that the vampires sometimes enjoyed something like this and that a good hunt was always exciting, but usually, their food intake was much less noticeable.
They weren't mindless killing machines that killed everything that came their way. They couldn't afford it, and usually, they didn't want to. But human blood was a necessity for the vampires, elixir of life. Without it, the creatures of the night would become very weak!
Nevertheless, David repeated again and again that the Lost Boys rarely allowed themselves the pleasure of a "real" hunt because it was simply too dangerous for them.
Michael just didn't understand at the time why there could be something that would be dangerous for a vampire. Because, strictly speaking, these creatures still stood above humans on the food chain.
It was only from Edgar and Alan that Michael learned that vampires were vulnerable during the day because they fell into a death-like sleep and could not use their powers as at night.
During the conversation with David, Michael mentioned that he had noticed the posters of the missing people and he assumed that David and his men were responsible for them.
David then laughed at him and explained that few of these people were accounted for by the Lost Boys. He claimed that by wiping out these people, the vampires had done a great service to humanity. Like everyone else, the vampires just wanted to live.
David had also explained to Michael how he had met Star and that he had finally developed feelings for her. Yes, vampires felt something, only a few of them were really without feelings. Most vampires had never forgotten that they once had been human themselves!
Back then, David could have imagined sharing his eternal life with this young woman. What value should an eternal life have if you were doomed to spend it alone?
At first, things went pretty well between David and Star, they enjoyed the time together, but at some point, the vampire decided that it was time to tell Star the truth, she was slowly becoming suspicious at the time. David was no fool, so he first gave the young woman Max blood mixed with wine to drink.
After Star knew the truth, she hated David, at least that was what the vampire believed. Michael knew better after the many years he had spent with Star, of course.
Star didn't want this dark life that David and his brothers enjoyed so much. With Michael's help, she had managed to escape the darkness. But after the vampires were destroyed, she quickly realized how much she was missing them; even Marko and Dwayne, who mostly ignored the young woman. During the time she spent with them in the sunken hotel, she had had liberties that her parents had denied her, even though David was quite possessive. She had met cohesion that she had never seen before.
Although Dwayne and Marko ignored her after realizing that the young woman refused to really become one of them, they protected her. If anybody got too close to Star and David wasn't around, Dwayne and Marko were right there.
Star had always felt that Marko had disagreed with her presence in the cave from the start, and she was absolutely right. When David decided that Star would stay with them, he devoted a large part of his attention to her. Before he had spent much more time with Marko. Marko simply got jealous and knew from the start that Star had no interest in this lifestyle. Marko always wondered how David could be so blind! And yet Star could always rely on the vampire's protective instinct, after all, she was part of the family!
Michael hated that his girlfriend could not stop talking about her time with the Lost Boys. He quickly realized that it was in no way love that connected him and Star, it was just the extraordinary experience together with the vampires!
Michael and Star still remained a couple and even got married shortly after Christina's birth, but it was more of a community than anything else. When Star noticed then that she was pregnant, she was not very pleased, just like Michael and his family.
Star initially lied to Michael and claimed that she had never slept with David. It took a few weeks before she took courage and confessed the truth to Michael. Michael had never mentioned it to Star and never told her about David's visit to him, but by talking to the vampire, he knew from the start that Star was not honest with him.
Michael was aware that Star maybe would give birth to David's kid, but he would stay with her after she had decided, that she would raise the kid. The young man felt obliged to his girlfriend because either he was the father of the child himself or he had destroyed the father of the baby. Either way, Michael felt responsible for the life that grew up in Star!
Basically, Michael would only have had to deal with the calculated date of birth to recognize the truth, but he was simply not interested in it at the time! What would that help him? The child would be born soon and there was nothing to be done about it!
Star's pregnancy was difficult. She was happy to be able to go out in the sun again during the day without feeling tired and enjoyed spending time in the garden, but with each month as her pregnancy progressed, it became more problematic because the child, Christina, seemed to sleep all day and was very active at night. Star was unable to sleep and was very irritable and slept almost every day, during the night she was haunting the house. Her strange habits naturally had an impact on the entire household.
Stars' eating habits during this time were also not quite normal. She insisted on eating her meat, and she ate a lot of it, more or less raw! Her doctor had advised her against this because raw meat was not good for the child, but Star ignored the doctor's advice.
Christina probably didn't feel like waiting until the expected date of birth, no, she wanted to get out of her mother's womb almost two months earlier, and without warning. There was no time to go to the hospital, Christina was born at home.
Still, what slipped out of Star was a fully developed, healthy girl, but she was really tiny. After the midwife, whom grandfather had summoned, gave the first assessment, Christina was wrapped in a blanket and put in Michael's arms.
Her little head was full of hair sticking out in all directions, she had the exact same hair color as David. Her eyes were pale blue, just like his. She smiled up at Michael and he felt David was smiling at him. Although Michael was well aware that he would eventually raise David's child, it was too much for him at the moment, he felt cheated somehow.
In the meantime, the whole family was gathered in the room and everyone congratulated the young mother. Michael then shoved the child into the hand of the person standing next to him. It was his grandfather.
He took Christina gently and looked at his grandson reproachfully. Michael also noticed how his grandfather looked at the newborn girl and heard his words. "Well, none of us is left with a choice about our parents, all of us had to take what we got."
Michael could still hear Sam calling him, but by then he had already closed the door of the room and had walked halfway down the stairs. Michael sighed as he thought back to Christina's birth, standing by the table for almost ten minutes.
The other people in the restaurant were already busy with their own affairs. Michael left the restaurant without a word to follow Sam. He was totally agitated.
His brother looked at Michael reproachfully when they were finally back in the SUV. "Sam," Michael started, but Sam held up his hands defensively. "I don't want to talk about it now," he moaned. "But maybe you should know one thing because your fang friends are not the ones who are threatening Christina's life. There are hunters in town. William and Tedrick, we met once when they still were kids. Edgar told me that they were both are completely insane. They want to get Christina out of the way."
Michael opened his mouth again to say something, but Sam didn't allow it. "No, Mike, not now! Or you can get out of here and see how you get on alone!" Then Sam started the car and pouted back onto the main road. If what Edgar Sam had said on the phone about Bill and Ted was true, Sam feared the worst for Christina!
The young woman was still sitting on the slaughtering block looking in the direction from which she had heard Marko's voice, she could literally feel the vampire staring at her.
"I have to get out of here," she murmured, getting carefully to her feet. Pain flashed through her entire body and she felt that her head was about to explode. Groaning, she clung to the block.
"We have to get out of here," she heard the vampire say, staring angrily in Marko's direction. "You only got me into this position," she shouted angrily at him. Marko laughed. "What are you talking about?", he asked. "Who played stand man on my motorcycle and caused this crap? Just a few meters further and we would have left the asshole behind! But no, Madame had to act like her mom couldn't have done better! I'll tell you the truth, Child, if you really think we are your biggest problem, I have to disappoint you! There are worse monsters like us in this city, and the funniest thing is that the worst of them are humans. Unfortunately, your friend got very close to one of them!"
It took Christina a while to register what Marko had just told her, then she noticed that the vampire had mentioned her mother again. Marko, like all vampires, could see perfectly in the dark. He grinned when he noticed how stupid Christina was looking.
This kid really seemed to have absolutely no idea. He wondered how much vampire was really in her, it couldn't be that her father's blood wouldn't affect her! How had the child managed to survive that long?
Christina looked down at her boots somewhat embarrassed, but the embarrassment quickly gave way to anger. She took a step in the direction she thought Marko was and groaned again because her head ached with every movement.
"What are you talking about my mother all the time?" She asked with desperation in her voice. "You didn't know her at all!" Marko laughed again. "Oh, baby," he finally answered. "I knew this woman better than I liked. I knew immediately that she meant nothing but trouble for us, but your Da ..., uh, David didn't want to listen to me!"
Christina listened, what was it that Marko just had not said? With a frown, she took another step towards him. Why did Marko know her mother? And what did David have to do with it? She just didn't understand what Marko was talking about!
Everything was too much to take right now for Christina, too many things had already happened that night! She had ignored her fear of the dark and was just going to her favorite club.
There she had met Laddie, who had obviously been in Santa Carla for a while and hadn't told her about it, Christina was very disappointed. Then she'd met the scary bikers and learned that just these men were Laddie's friends.
Christina had seen Paul again, who was part of this gang. Christina liked Paul very much, but he had simply passed her on to Marko to disappear with this rigged chick. That was the next disappointment.
Christina initially liked Marko, but not as much as she liked Paul. This man immediately seemed odd to her, well, now she knew why! On the way home, Marko and she crashed on his motorcycle and then Christina noticed that Ted had been following them in his car.
Christina witnessed that vampires actually exist, Marko was a vampire! Did that mean the others were vampires too? And what about Laddie? And anyway, what did these guys want from her?
She had remembered what had happened in the forest. Dwayne actually wanted to kill her, but then suddenly there was someone else who prevented it! At last, she realized that it was Paul who had protected her from Dwayne, it was his voice that she had heard that night!
And now she was locked up in a dark, cold room, with Marko, a vampire. And to top it all off, he had also revealed that her mother had something to do with these guys!
She remembered a conversation with Laddie that they had had when he was visiting her. He had said something that was related to all of this, but Christina was so exhausted and confused that she couldn't grasp it. She just knew it was important to her! How old were these guys? Actually, they looked younger than Christina herself!
Desperation spread again in the young woman, she just wanted to go home! She just wanted to get into her bed and pull the covers over her head and hide from the whole mess! How had she gotten into this trouble? She dropped to her knees and tears fell from her eyes.
Marko sighed. David's child was a disturbing factor in his eyes! She was somehow interesting too, but it still bothered, just like her mother did back then! On the other hand, he knew that she was not to blame for the tricky situation and he somehow felt sorry for her. After all, she hadn't chosen this situation. The circumstances of her life had plunged the unsuspecting young woman into this chaos.
Star and Michael should have better told her the whole truth about her father, then she would have been prepared. Christina sobbed loudly and put her hands over her face.
Then suddenly she stopped crying and jumped to her feet. "My bag is gone," she screamed with a horrified face. "I must have lost her when we crashed on your bike!"
Marko shook his head, rolled his eyes, and sighed. "Is that really your biggest problem right now?", he asked annoyed. Christina looked blankly in Marko's direction. "Yes, no, yes, because, I mean ...", she stuttered and started to cry again. "Do you have a cigarette?" She asked sobbing and put her hands in the pockets of her sweatshirt.
She winced, stopped crying again, and her eyes lit up when she felt the object in her pocket. Grinning, she pulled her smartphone out of her pocket and turned it on. In the chaos, she had simply forgotten that she never kept her phone in her purse.
The first thing she did was use the flashlight function and just pulled the light into Marko's face with a grin. He was blinded by it, which made him angry, his true nature was revealed. "Damn it, take that thing out of my face," he hissed.
But Christina didn't think about it at all since Marko was in chains, he couldn't harm her. She looked curiously at his changed face. Marko growled at her and closed his eyes. After a few seconds, he had regained his human face.
Satisfied that she could finally see more, Christina illuminated the room and finally ran to the door. She pushed the handle down and found that the door was locked.
"Did you seriously believe that it was so easy to walk out of here?" Marko asked mockingly. Christina turned the light back on his face and he hissed again. "Damn it, leave the shit!" He shouted angrily.
Christina grinned and finally did the vampire the favor. She took the smartphone down and opened the list of contacts. "In my right jacket pocket," said Marko suddenly. Christina looked at him in confusion. "My cigarettes are in my right pocket," he said. "You wanted to have one. You could also light one on to me, unfortunately, I can't do it myself!"
Marko smiled very charmingly, he had a plan, the young woman only had to get close enough to him. He had been thinking about how to get her to close the distance to him all along.
However, Christina had her own plan and ignored Marko. She would call for help with her phone, she's been stuck here for far too long! However, she never got the idea to contact Donald, who was definitely still in the pool hall.
Christina called Zoe instead, but she had obviously turned off her phone. Christina sighed in frustration and pressed Laddie's number. On the second ring, someone answered her call. "Christina, where are you?", a voice that was definitely not Laddies asked.
Christina picked up the phone and looked at it in surprise. Marko had recognized the voice immediately, of course. "Christina, is Marko with you?", David asked impatiently.
He had sent Dwayne and Laddie on a mission and asked Laddie to leave his smartphone with David, just in case that Christina would call. Christina didn't respond and instead looked helplessly at Marko.
"David, we're in the old slaughterhouse," Marko said, watching Christina hesitantly approach. "It would be great if you could remove the blockage from your thoughts! I've been calling you for a while," Marko then complained.
Christina looked at Marko in astonishment. What was he talking about? And how did he know where they were trapped? She heard David swear because the old slaughterhouse belonged to the wolves' territory, then she ended the call. She didn't feel like talking to David.
She desperately needed a cigarette to get a clear thought and went to Marko step by step. Again and again, she hesitated because she didn't trust the vampire, even though she knew deep down that he wouldn't kill her, because Marko could have done that long ago. For some reason the vampires didn't want to kill her, except maybe Dwayne, that much was certain. Paul would have had the best opportunity to just make her disappear last weekend, but he hadn't one hair on her head. Christina just couldn't get the puzzle together and wondered again what these guys wanted from her.
Marko watched the young woman with the eyes of an arbor. 'Come on,' he thought. He was weakened and urgently needed some blood. In his condition, he could not simply tear the chains out of the wall to get free, nor manipulate Christina. A bit of Christina's lifeblood would change the situation for the vampire immediately. "Come on here," he whispered so impatiently that Christina couldn't hear it.
Christina actually went closer and closer to Marko, just a few more steps, and he would be able to finally get hold of her to take what he needed. "In my right jacket pocket," Marko said again to make her hurry up. He was hungry and was getting impatient. Just like Christina, he finally wanted to get out of this prison.
Christina was almost within Marko's reach when the two heard that a door slammed somewhere in the building. Christina and Marko heard footsteps, someone was approaching their prison. A key was put in the lock and turned, then the door was pushed open and crashed into the wall. Next, the light came on, it was very bright. Christina held her hands in front of her eyes because the light blinded her.
When she took her hands away again, she narrowed her eyes at the figure standing in the door frame. "Ted, why did you lock us up here?" She asked angrily and ran over to him.
Ted only looked at her with contempt and pushed her back into the room. She fell to the floor and shouted at him, "Are you losing it? What's this about?" Marko growled, but Ted just grinned confidently at him.
"I am pleased that my guests have recovered a little," he said with a slight smile and closed the door, but left the key in the lock from the outside. "Then the show can finally begin," he announced cheerfully.
Ted placed a tool case at a safe distance next to Marko on a steel table. Christina looked at him questioningly and then looked over at Marko. She got up from the floor and ran to the door, but Ted was faster and pulled her to a chair that was next to the table and pushed her into it.
"Please take a seat," he said, grinning. "Then I can prepare everything for an amusing night." Christina tried to get out of his grip, but couldn't. "I want to get out of here," she yelled at Ted, but he just laughed at her. "Well, little one, unfortunately, I can't let you go," he answered spitefully. "And apart from that, you definitely don't want to miss this!"
Christina got up from the chair, but then noticed Marko's warning look. He wanted to prevent Ted from tying her up at all costs. Tied up she would be useless. Marko secretly hoped that there was enough David in Christina and that she would take to his side. Christina didn't really know how to react and ended up just standing in front of the chair. Marko sighed in relief.
Meanwhile, Ted had taken a pair of pliers from his tool case and put them on the table sorted by size. He looked proudly at the selection. Marko watched disgustedly every move Ted made, but Ted only smirked at Marko.
"We want to test how resilient your fangs are," said Ted, pointing to Marko's mouth with an object in his hand. Ted held a stun gun in his hand that he wanted to use to stop Marko from reaching for him. Vampires were damn fast, Ted knew that he had to defend himself if he wanted to stand a chance against the bloodsucker.
He walked up to Marko and used his weapon in a flash. Marko roared and his face changed. He growled at Ted. Ted was not impressed by this and laughed. He had gotten what he wanted, Marko's face now showed what he was.
Marko's eye color had changed, the pupils were now framed in yellow with a blood-red ring. Ted could see the vampire's fangs, and the contours of his face had changed too; it was truly a terrible sight.
Ted dragged Christina over to Marko. "There, look at him closely," he shouted into her face. "That will become of you too! Do you want that?" Christina tried to pull away.
"You really lost it completely," she yelled at him. "I want to get out of here right now!" Ted laughed and shoved her back into the chair. "You're not going anywhere, girl," he said very calmly.
Then he went back to Marko with the stun gun and gave him another electric shock. "You'll regret that," growled Marko, but Ted just laughed at him and took one of the tongs off the table. "Well, bloodsucker, if you open your mouth voluntarily, it may not be so ugly," Ted said, dripping with sarcasm. "But as I know you, I have to help anyway. Guys like you destroyed my family and took a dear relative from me. You will pay for that now!"
Marko grinned. "You know that is not the truth," he defended himself snappily. "You know very well that it was not us, but those who howl at the full moon! And it is not our fault that part of your family is howling with them now!"
"Werewolves, vampires, I don't give a shit, you're all the same," Ted said. "I was a very happy kid once and you destroyed that happiness!" He approached Marko with a threatening pair of tongs and a stun gun.
Christina was totally shocked because she had just learned that werewolves were actually existing. Ted and Marko portrayed these creatures as living in the middle of them in this city, and Christina was frankly fed up. She had been locked up with a vampire by a man who must have been completely sick. Ted urgently needed therapy!
Christina watched Ted horrified that what he was going to do could not be serious. Ted stood in front of Marko, the two staring at each other with hatred. Then Ted looked over at Christina and grinned.
"She doesn't know, am I right ?!", he stated. "You didn't tell her?" Christina looked at Ted in confusion, then turned her questioningly to Marko, who rolled his eyes in annoyance and sighed.
"What didn't you tell me?" She asked. Ted laughed. "So I would finally tell her the truth if I were you," he advised Marko. "Or do you want to let her die stupid?"
Now Marko was the one who laughed. "She won't die," he replied stubbornly. Ted grinned and was about to give Marko another electric shock when his phone rang. "Well, it was about time," he said contentedly.
Christina noticed that Marko was pointing into a corner of the room and followed his gaze and saw a broken slat on the floor. Marko nodded and gave her an encouraging smile. Christina realized that she would only have a chance to escape this situation if she worked with the vampire. So she used Ted's carelessness and left her place. The man fumbled on his phone and ignored her.
Christina really had enough of him, he was completely crazy. The young woman picked up the crossbar and gathered all her courage. Marko nodded impatiently and Christina struck as hard as she could. She screamed and struck again, and again. Ted dropped the phone and crashed to the floor. Horrified about herself, Christina threw the bar into a corner.
Marko looked at her with raised eyebrows and whistled through his teeth. Apparently, he had underestimated the girl, she had more courage in her bones than her mother.
Christina smiled in relief at Marko. "What now?" She asked. Marko now had a new plan, he didn't need to use Christina as a blood bank anymore, Ted was there now. "What a question," laughed the vampire. "See if you can find anything in the box to free me of it." he clinked his chains. "And if there is a hammer in the thing, keep it with you just in case the ape gets up again," he instructed, pointing his head at Ted.
While Christina was rummaging in the toolbox, Marko wondered why his brothers hadn't shown up, but on the other hand, of course, he knew that not much time had passed since talking to David on the phone.
"Hah," Christina suddenly said, pleased. "It doesn't get any better than that. She held up a key with a smile." I hope that's the fitting one, "she added. Marko had put on his most charming smile again.
"Come on, try whether it fits in the lock, " he asked. Christina became suspicious again and stopped abruptly. Marko became impatient. "Come on, go on," he begged. "He's way worse than me. You saw for yourself what he is capable of!"
Finally, Christina went to the vampire and with trembling hands, she put the key in the lock that held Marko's chains, it fit! Marko freed himself from the chains in no time.
He ran to Ted and bit his throat. Frozen, but somehow fascinated, Christina watched Marko drink. She was ashamed of not being disgusted, on the contrary, she got hungry.
Marko wanted to tear Ted to pieces but he was in the werewolf territory, so he fought his urge and only took as much as he actually needed. The guy was going to pay for what he had done, the vampire was sure. When he drank enough, he grabbed the frozen Christina by the hand and pulled her out of the room.
"What happened here?" suddenly asked a tall figure who came towards them in front of the room. "Shit," was all Marko said then he pushed Christina behind him.
Christina peeked out from behind Marko and recognized her boss, Donald. She left her cover and started to run into his arms, but Marko got a hold of her arm. "No, don't," he said.
Donald looked at Marko and Christina. "Christina? This is really a surprise! So she is the prodigy kid that David told me about?" He asked in astonishment. "Where's my nephew?"
Marko sighed and pointed into the room. "Is the idiot still alive? I really hope so. I want to teach him a lesson," Donald said sourly. " And you two better get out of here before the rest of us show up!"
Marko nodded and pulled Christina out of the building. He didn't bother to explain anything to her, he just took her in an iron grip and flew with her Sunken Hotel. Christina cried out once when Marko left the safe ground, but she was just too tired to fight it.
At the same moment that Ted was knocked down by Christina's blows, Zoe's doorbell rang. Bill had just left, surely he had forgotten something. So Zoe didn't think long and opened the door. The young woman was very surprised that it was not Bill, but Laddie, who was accompanied by a brunette man. Zoe had seen this man before, he was one of those ominous bikers.
She looked at the two men in astonishment. "Laddie, what are you doing here at this time? I was about to go to bed," she said. "Did something happen?" Laddie smiled a little tortured. He didn't like the idea that Zoe was now being drawn into the story. But she was the friend of one of the hunters who had Christina and Marko, and so she was good leverage, he had to agree with David and Dwayne. In addition, Christina's wellbeing meant a lot more to the newborn vampire, after all, she was part of the family, even if she didn't know that!
"I'm sorry," Laddie apologized. "It's about Christina, she's in serious trouble!" Zoe looked startled at Laddie and regretted neglecting her best friend in this way.
"What's going on?" She asked. Laddie looked at her seriously. "Can we come in briefly? Then we'll explain everything to you," asked Laddie. Zoe couldn't know what she really was doing by inviting vampires in. "Yeah sure, come on in," she replied, stepping aside to make room for the two.
Zoe closed the door and looked at the men curiously. "Well, I wanna know everything," she stated. Dwayne cleared his throat. "How well do you know your friend's buddy?", he asked.
Zoe looked astonished. "Well, he was at the club with us a few times," she explained. "But Bill has known him forever, he makes a very nice impression! Why do you want to know that?"
Laddie was about to answer, but his sire raised his hand, silencing him. "We suspect that guy kidnapped Christina," said Dwayne bluntly. He didn't think to waste time with small talk.
Zoe stood there, stunned. "How do you come up with such nonsense?" She asked. "Why should Ted do something stupid like this? Although he showed interest in Christina, he had to find out that she doesn't want to know anything about him. But that's no reason to kidnap her right away!"
Dwayne grinned. "I have known your friend and his buddy a little longer," he said. "Did your brothers introduce the men to you? They're friends.
"Zoe looked at the dark-haired vampire in confusion and then shook her head. "Bill never mentioned my brothers, I didn't know he knew them," Zoe admitted. "You see, we are worried about Christina," Dwayne explained. He wanted to sow distrust into Zoe, and obviously, he had.
Zoe took her smartphone from the table and realized that Christina had called. She called back immediately, but Christina didn't answer the phone. Zoe put the phone down, she looked very worried.
Why had Bill just hid from her that he knew Edgar and Alan? Zoe had talked about her brothers so many times. Bill had been given a chance to tell her so many times. Zoe just didn't understand.
She turned around to face Laddie and Dwayne. "I get dressed, then we go to Bill's place and clarify that together," she offered. "It must be a misunderstanding." Dwayne and Laddie smiled at each other. 'Bingo,' said Dwayne in Laddie's thoughts. 'Exactly what we wanted.'
Zoe climbed onto Laddie's motorcycle a little later. "Have you ever sat on a bike?", he asked. "Okay, just go with me when I make a turn and hold on tight! You'll love it!"
Dwayne was still standing next to them. "Zoe," he said. When she looked at him, he manipulated her and just let her fall asleep. Laddie looked at him in astonishment. "Vampire," said Dwayne, laughing, and took the sleeping woman in his arms. "We'll get the motorcycles later," he said, rising into the air. Laddie grinned and followed him to the sunken hotel.
There they were already expected by David and Dwayne. Dwayne made Zoe wake up again and put her on a sofa. She looked around in astonishment. David sat across from Zoe with a gallant smile. "Welcome to our humble home," he greeted her. "I'm really happy to finally meet Christina's friend!"
Zoe looked at him completely perplexed and wanted to reply, but she had looked into David's eyes a little too long, she couldn't know that he was a master of manipulation. "Dwayne said you were about to go to sleep," David stated with a smile. "Laddie will show you where to sleep, and tomorrow evening we'll have a little chat!"
Zoe got up like a puppet and followed Laddie into one of the back rooms. Paul and Dwayne watched her laugh.
"Did she call?", Dwayne asked worriedly. David nodded. "I wanted to take matters into my own hands and tear the assholes apart, but we don't want to start a war, so let's wait and see," he explained. "We'll get our revenge later, they'll pay for threatening our family!" Paul and Dwayne nodded in disappointment. A minute later, Marko stood next to his brothers with a completely exhausted Christina. "I was waiting for you," he complained. "What kept you from getting us out?"
