Vampire comes to India(#YourStoryIndia)

Chapter 5 - Spies

Day 10

Ravina's P.O.V.

"I don't care how, when, what. When I say do it. Get it done! Is that understood?", I told the whimpering new vampire hatchling, while pointing her the way out of my office. She rushes out with a speed of a bullet and a curse escapes my lips as the glass door bangs shut. It doesn't break. Great! Teflon glass, it actually is tough to break! I roll my eyes I am so bored.

The office is as glamorous as one can imagine it has three glass walls with modern lamps unnecessarily lighting up every corner and rich wooden flooring. The spacious room had more than enough space for basic office furniture complete with a sofa set and a small coffee table. Behind the cemented wall there was a hidden bedroom, where my coffin now rested.

Laying my head against the smooth black leather chair, I glare at my surroundings. I hated the glass walls, even though no one from the outside can know when I am watching them. I just hate this bloody job. Oh blood..how I wish I can have that fresh blood that comes here. But, alas I can't, yet.

As the latest owner of this happening club in Mumbai it is now my duty to make sure everything runs smoothly as it had been during Nethan's short regime here. The withering bodies of sweaty humans and new vampires make me cringe and I finally draw the blinds.

I pull out the contract, and the letter attached to it, re reading every word as if it's the first time I laid my eyes on it, when Suraj had brought me to this world.

Dear Aunt Ravina,

I know you were not expecting this and you may react out of proportion about what I am going to say next but please read this letter thoroughly and fulfill the promise you made to me 50 years ago when I had helped you in Baghdad.

Our kinds are once again being threatened by none other than William John. Yes, he is back. He along with other vampire slayers have spread over the world and we being the first ones are at greater risk. He had learned somehow that you are going to New York and had his men ready to kill you the moment that ship docked. I had purposely asked the Ship's captain to take off your coffin box first before he made the next stop to Africa, where your treasure will be kept safe, till the time comes.

William's brother Samuel was spotted in Kerala few days prior to your arrival. I think there is a rift between them and this time it is us who will reap benefits. I know you don't like getting involved in Vampire politics, so I won't bother you with more details.

I am however going to Kerala, with Ramesh, Suraj's father. He is my guide for now.

I have appointed Suraj to you as he is the best of the lot here in Mumbai. His blood will cloak your stench and hide you well from William's spies. I know you don't fear anyone, my fearless Aunt Ravina. But, I fear for you.

You are the only thread of humanity I have left. So please don't go on your usual rendezvous human blood spree and try to suffice on Suraj's. It's as pure as they come. I have drawn a Will favouring you as the new owner and all rights holder of the club till I come back.

The laws in India have become stronger than before so it will help you, may the need arise. Also all the hatchlings are only a few months old and all were singlehandedly picked and turned by me. They know that their training days are drawing near and promised their loyalty to us. They need to be watched over and soothed with the blood supply, before you can train them.

Yes, this is the promise I seek from you. Train them to fight the slayers, kill the slayers and I assure you that once we behead that William. I myself will help you leave to another country of your choice and will not try to seek you out till you desire.
