Chapter 288

As a human child Colin never thought he would get used to sleeping on the ground. Maybe it was because he was now a vampire, but he was getting used to it. One day, in the middle of the day, Colin was woken up by Jessie. Jess said to be quiet, others were still sleeping. He said they had to go. Jessie walked Colin past the guards who were awake. He claimed the Master wanted him to take Colin elsewhere for now. None of these vampires dared to question the Master's orders. Once they reached the sewars Jessie knew they had to keep moving. They were past the point of no return. Perhaps they could rejoice later, for now they were too nervous to smile. It was freedom or death.
