Author's Note:
This is a quick chapter, but for a reason. I will do my best to make sure I keep the chapters coming so you don't wait too long. Thank you again for support and I look forward to all reviews whether they be nice or mean. Again… the concept and characters do not belong to me; I take no credit.
Enjoy!
Noah knew something was wrong the moment his senses awakened. His sensitive ears could hear the strong heartbeats of several men surrounding his coffin and the hurried whispers of desperation.
"Quick before the blood sucker starts moving around." A strong male voice harshly whispered.
The coffin shifted and then hoisted into the air and started rocking as it began to travel with the rhythm of steady feet. These men were obviously skilled to have discovered his hiding spot, but they had made one fatal mistake, they stayed after dark.
Noah slammed his weight into the top of his coffin looking forward to his free meal, but the coffin lid didn't budge. Then he could smell it. Silver. The aroma burned his nostrils and throat. That single breath had lit his lungs on fire as if someone had pressed cigarettes against their lining.
"Told you," sprang from the lips of from the same male voice.
"There is enough silver wrapped around here to stop Dracula. Stop being a pussy," snarled back another male voice.
Several thoughts passed through Noah's mind, who were these people, where were they taking him, why was HE taken, and who was the traitor in their midst? Noah settled silently back into his coffin and did the one thing vampires were excellent at; he waited. They would pay dearly for this.
Steve Newlin felt like a kid at Christmas when he received the text message confirming that his small army had captured yet another vampire for him. This time it was older than the last one; much older than the last one.
He would surely enjoy watching it writhe in pain as he learned their deepest and darkest secrets of that disgusting race, no abomination. Their kind didn't deserve the reference of humanity. They were an affliction on this Earth. The others he had captured had died much too quickly to learn much information from so the older vampires made more sense.
Just as his thoughts started turning to ideas of torture and glee his phone rang.
"Yes."
"Sir we have a lead on your sister." It was Sydney.
"And?"
"I found an auto rental store who says they've seen her. She rented a car and returned it in Las Vegas. They wouldn't give me the name she used. I didn't think you wanted me to cause a scene so close to base." His voice was always devoid of emotion and so monotone.
"Las Vegas. Good. The new package arrived. She will have to wait. And Sydney?"
"Yes Sir."
"She is not my sister. She is an enemy. Don't let me hear you say that again. Is that clear?"
"Yes sir."
With that Steve hung up the phone and started getting ready for the arrival of his 'guest'.
