Hematophagous

Chapter 29: A Hot Bath

The night had been long, hard and above all... tedious. very tedious Too much.

Lucy managed to find every living thing, except for plants and animals, that was on the territory of the castle. At least fifty soldiers, twenty "servants" and three vampires that roamed the place.

An hour after her departure, Victoria returned with a whole horde of vampires ready to rip the head off anyone who got in their way. Were they loyal? Yes of course. Nobody wanted to die at the hands of a Fersi and even less knowing the madness of Folke Fersi. Because yes, Victoria also returned with her entire family... father, mother and... brother. "I couldn't help it." She whispered to me when she saw my face realizing that her brother was also in the compound.

Nearly a hundred vampires and yet they hadn't found a single infiltrator.

-It looks good on you- Thomas whispered before getting into the car.

And it is that Hilaria did give me a good surprise: a combat suit made to measure of the best fabric, one that I had not seen in a long time.

- Thank you.-I turned to see them better.

-Are you sure?- Victoria asked biting her lower lip. "You don't have to.

-With your brother here I don't want to play it.-I tried to omit the smile that Folke was sending me from the entrance of the castle.-Besides, Thomas has to go for Lucy's mother.

- Yes, but...stay with her?-Hilaria narrowed her eyes worriedly.-I don't know if it's a good idea.

- I told her that I would train with her, if I don't she will come again.-I opened the car door.-And nobody wants that.

- Be careful, we don't know what he's capable of.-Victoria reminds me.

- I will have it. Who knows? I still get him information about his next moves.

- He won't open his mouth even if you force him to. She has always been...- Hilaria was silent for a moment, trying to find the ideal word.-...she was silent about that kind of thing.

- Quiet?

- It could be said that way, yes.-they both looked at each other.

- I think I don't want to know why you know that.-they both turned to see me quickly.-I have the advantage that he likes me, so...I could get some things out of him.

- He likes you, but I don't think he's that kind of good.-Victoria stifled a laugh.-Be careful and if you see even the slightest suspicion...

- I'm leaving, yes. I remember the plan.-I cut him off.

- Well.-she opened the door more for me to enter inside.-See you soon.

-Be very careful.- I rolled my eyes at Hilaria's comment. -Don't do that to me- she said sarcastically. -See you later, Maia.-

- See you later.- I finally managed to say goodbye.

-And what about me?- Thomas yelled, making me laugh. -Aren't they saying goodbye to me or what?-

- I don't think you want our kind of goodbyes.-Thomas returned to his seat as soon as he heard Victoria's comment.

- Maya? What time did you have to be there? -He asks, pretending to be nervous.

- Goodbye, Thomas.-they said goodbye at the same time.

- So yes.-he started the engine smiling.-Thank you.

- See you later.-they both smiled before closing the door.

- What a tense situation.-he began to accelerate.
