Chapter 14
The vampire ran into the woods with him at a scary speed.
He then recalled that his mum also said vampires were faster than them werewolves. It would not be easy to defeat a high level one. They were also lone vampires, and this was clearly one of them. Lone vampires feasted on human blood whenever they wished! He was done for!
As the man sped along the woods, Pedro wept.
“Please, save me someone.” he thought, his little heart beat faster than normal.

Regina bit the neck of her opponent rogue wolf and he immediately died from the severe blood loss.
The other rogue wolves were dead except for Leonard. He could solo both their mates.
Carmelia was nearly killed by a wolf sneak attacking. Luckily, Regina discovered in time and killed the wolf. But Carmelia fainted after reverting to human form.
Soon, Rolandro killed Leonard’s wolf after seeing an opening. He had to admit, this pack was very strong. It wasn’t an easy kill like other times. They had to be more careful when leaving next time.
He and Mel shifted back to their human form, panting.
“We made it!” Mel said, giving his companion a high five.
Rolandro saw that his mate had fainted and hurried to carry her bridal style.
“Honey, are you alright?” he asked in distress.
Perceiving her mate’s scent this close, Carmelia opened her eyes weakly.
“Did we win, honey?” she asked in a hoarse voice.
“Yes, my princess. We won!” he replied and kissed her forehead. “Please, listen to me next time. Okay?”
She nodded and fainted again.
He sighed and looked at the other couple, who were kissing like there was no tomorrow.
“Shameless couple, let’s lodge a hotel and then you can f*ck however you desire.”
They broke the kiss.
“Didn’t Carmelia tell you not to curse?” Mel reminded.
“Well, she is unconscious now but not her wolf.” said Regina.
“Bella, don’t you dare say a word or I won’t let Kyle pound you when you want it.” he warned.
Kyle was his wolf’s name and he is a kind of reserved wolf spirit. Only at rare occasions does he speak up. He just likes to sleep or watch over him.
There was no reply, as his mate’s wolf didn’t feel like taking control. But he hoped she’d consider it.
They headed to the car.
“Pedro, please, take out the blue bag from the back.” said Regina.
“And the white one at the side too.” added Mel.
But no one replied.
“Huh? Did he fall asleep or what?” Mel muttered in puzzlement.
He opened the back door on the right side of the jeep, and color drained from his face.
“Rolandro…” he muttered in a shaky voice
“What happened to my son?” Rolandro ran to Mel’s spot with Regina and they became pale too.
“How did we not notice? How could we be careless?” Regina cried.
“A vampire was here. A lone vampire!” Mel said in shock.
Rolandro howled in pain.

Back at the island, Lavana was running back the way she came. She could see the sea now. She became glad in her heart.
Who could tell her that this was a snake island? She had no interest in staying here one bit. Not with the dozens of unknown snake species currently after her life!
She extinguished the levitating fireball above her right palm and ran into the sea. When it was deep enough, she dived in and changed into her merform.
The damn snakes still didn’t want to let her off. Over 30 of them were still chasing her.
“I’m so unlucky!” she thought as she swam faster than she ever thought she could.
10 minutes later, she was able to lose those wretched things and swam towards the nearest shore. This was a forest, and she decided to come ashore.
This place was much better than that island!
But she won’t make the mistake of going so deep in. She just needed to gather some firewood and light them up to keep her warm.
After transforming, she rose and surveyed the environment.
>>>>>>>>>>>
She finally found enough sticks to light a fire. She was about to head back the way she’d come when she smelt something bloody and rotten.
What was it? Could it be the carcass of an animal? Or was it some other creature that she didn’t know about?
She heard the rustling of leaves and decided to hide behind a tree.
After a second, a man wearing black appeared with a kid in his arms.
He was laughing maniacally.
“This must be another supernatural being. He runs really fast. What is he? Gosh! He smells really bad.” she p[inched her nose.
She saw his teeth were elongated and his eyes were … red?
She remembered something from her childhood. Her mum had told her stories of pale-skinned people with black veins, red eyes and fangs. They fed on blood. Some simply fed on animal blood but others chose human blood.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Her eyes widened in realization.
This is a vampire? A vampire’s bite can kill a werewolf and that kid in his arms that had fainted, was a wolf pup! His parents must be anxiously looking for him.
She became distressed. This lone vampire here was stronger than her. Fighting him was a death wish and her three spirits were sleeping. She couldn’t afford to disturb their slumber.
What would she do?
*************
“Pedro!”
“Pedro!”
“Pedro!”
Mel, Regina, and Rolandro (who was carrying a still unconscious Carmelia) yelled almost at the same time.
They were in the woods, following the scent of that damn vampire. They were running as fast as they could, hoping o catch up with him or her. Nothing should happen to that boy. They wished they could arrive in time.
“Don’t be scared, Pedro, my son. Daddy’s coming to get you.” Rolandro yelled, not reducing his pace.
“Rolandro, I think it’s best for the ladies to stay behind.” Mel suggested telepathically.
“No, I’m coming with you.” Regina telepathed stubbornly.
“Please, trust me. You girls stay behind and wait in the jeep. Rolandro and I will go on. We’ll take him back. Promise!” Mel pleaded.
Rolandro stopped running and turned to face Regina.
He sniffed.
“Here, I entrust my mate’s safety to you, Gina. Please take care of her. Don’t let her know that he’s missing.” he placed Carmelia into Regina’s hands. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but Mel shook his head and placed his left index finger on her lips.
“Await our return.” he said before running forward with Rolandro.
Regina sighed and looked at the stressed face of Carmelia. She kind of wished her friend wouldn’t wake up anytime soon. Until Pedro could be found.
She turned around and made way back to the road.
“Mel, Rolandro, please be safe and I wish you good luck with finding Pedro.” she said in her heart as she ran.
