Nosferatu: the Vampires

Chapter 3

Amyra returned to her apartment. She gave a small cube of apple to Fifi and laid on the coach watching her eat.

She felt asleep on the couch itself and woke up in the middle of the night to howling sounds. The voices were getting deeper and louder.

"Creepy" whispered Amyra and  went inside her bedroom shut the door and slept until she was disturbed by her alarm.

"Good morning sir" chirped Amyra.

"Good morning. Any new breaking news?" asked Len.

"Yes sir. Yesterday night I was passing by the road when a gang of 3 goons harassed me. We can write a report on the crime rate and for the public to beware" replied Amyra.

"Are you okay? Did you file a complain against them?" asked Len.

"No not yet, but i'm okay" replied Amyra.

"Austin, where were you yesterday?" asked Melwyns.

"I saw a girl walking towards the forest. To keep her away I gave her a ride to the hotel" replied Austin.

"Who was she?" inquired Melwyns.

"Some girl named Amyra. I saw it on her ID card" said Austin.

"I warned Yusif to keep an eye on that reporter. If she comes to know about us she will expose us in front of the media" said Melwyns.

"I won't let that happen dad. Leave her to me. I won't disappoint you" replied Austin.

*****
"May I come in sir?" asked Amyra.

Len stood up from his chair and ordered Amyra to enter his cabin. His cabin was huge. Most of the furniture in here had books lying around. Len was fond of books. Mainly, stories that included fiction.

"I'm going for a business meeting. Will return in 2-3 days. Make sure to update me with our daily work and progress" ordered Len.

"Sure Sir". 

"And yes...if you are fond of reading you can borrow books from my small library" said Len.

"Thank you sir" replied Amyra.

Amyra opened the bookshelf and started scrolling her eyes upon the books. Horror, religious, crime, mystery, romance, fantasy, science fiction, inspirational, Len had everything stored in his bookshelf.

She narrowed her eyes upon a thick dust covered book kept in a corner on the down row. She gently removed it and wiped out the dust from the brown cover page and opened the book "NOSFERATU" she read.

"Holy blood of Jesus! That was the last thing I expected to happen today. Choose something else. This book can make you go crazy" said Len.

"Why?" inquired Amyra.

"I got this book from my grandfather. I used to read it during my teenage, around 25 years from now. It made me curious to investigate as in what's there in Fernia forest that is hiding the identity from the city people" replied Len.

"Did you reach to any conclusion?" asked Amyra.

"Yes...that everything in this book is nonsense. Pure shit. I even had blamed Mr. Melwyns, a billionaire one of the most respected person in Fernia for being a ..."

Len was interrupted by Sancia.

"Sir. The car is here to drive you to the airport" informed Sancia.

"Okay Sancia. Take my suitcase and yes Amyra, read this book but don't go crazy over it" warned Len.
