B1)A Wanted Love

17) Oh Damn

Drake-

"Bye, see you after school." Salome got on her bike and left with Sebastian and Veronica. The kid had woken up with no memories of what had happened or done.

Dracula still hasn't come and explained who the child is.

For some odd reason, he had a terrible feeling. He will take extra precautions. He can't risk the girls getting hurt.

He went inside, and Tiara was with her brother, eating breakfast. Drake gave in to Tiara's demands. The woman is stubborn and knows how to play him.

Well, it doesn't matter; Drake will grant her any wish she wants,

The morning dragged on; Tiara had her daily check-up. She and the baby are doing well.

"I'll be back later; I have work to do," he kissed her before leaving to check up on the destruction left by the hunters days ago.

Tiara smiled. "I'll stay put this time, I promise."

Drake finds that hard to believe. "Don't do anything dangerous."

He kissed her one last time before leaving.

He will entrust the witch to look at her and the house. He spent most of the day dealing with paperwork and planning new strategies.

The woods are starting to grow again, but it'll be for a short time; winter will be around the corner. He also needs to prepare for that. Thankfully, since Tiara came to live with him, she's been the one who plans for winter. She's good at organization.

She has a planner and books with the last five years of winter. The clan has grown since then, and it'll continue to grow. His family will continue to grow.

"Sir, we did find a few campsites and personal belongings that the hunters left behind."

"Take those items to the research group. All suspicious items will go to them."

"Yes, sir."

Those hunters will regret their attack. Even if the other clans don't fight, Drake will fight alone. He will defeat the hunters.

He frowned. "What's this?"

He crouched and dusted the dirt off a book—a journal. He picked it up; it somehow survived the fire. He opened it, and a photo fell out. Picking up the photo, he snickered. In the picture is the man they capture. So, he has a family. Drake doesn't like playing dirty, but he will. They already got everyone out of the man with potions. But Drake could make him cooperate another way.

He flips through the journal, and it's some diary. He wrote everything down; isn't this illegal among the hunters?

"You, take this to the X group."

The guard stiffens at his request. "Sir, are you sure?"

"Yes, take that picture and give it to them; tell them to find them and bring them to me."

The guard gulped and looked nervous. "Yes, sir."

Drake created a 'special' group of wolves called X. They do the most, dirtier work. Tiara would feel disgusted with him.

But he needs to take drastic measures.

He was heading back to the office, reading the journal. This guy had a list of names, but Drake did not recognize them. Who are these people? 

The list of names was seven pages long, back and front. They had dated, and some names had a red X. Drake worried that the X meant they were no longer part of this world.
