The pretty young man froze for a moment before squinting his eyes at Jamie. “A Strigoi? Really? How dare you….”

Jamie cut him off. “Stop bullshitting. It's futile. Your disguise won't work here. I've observed you long enough to pick up on it. Your aura, just like the rest of your mind, is incredibly foul to be sensed.”

He smirked as he gazed up at the pretty young man with cold, calculating eyes. “You hide it very well, if I'm being honest. But you can only go so long without revealing a hint

    Stacy took a deep breath. “What about Nathan and Jonathan? Did they know?”Jamie nodded his head. “Of course, they do. They were in on most of the plans.”Stacy gazed up at Jamie with a brief sharpness. “And how are you so sure about all of these? How did you even get your hands on this footage spanning almost two decades?”This was a valid question that Jamie was prepared to answer without ratting himself out. “The Ashford subordinate backing me, Ethan Lincoln.”“I've always wanted my mother's name cleared publicly. Benard had made her countless ridicules a public spectacle through their marriage. You know this.”Stacy's gaze dulled at the truth she knew in those words. “Oh, so you asked the Ashford subordinate to help you retrieve that footage, huh?”Jamie nodded his head. “This was before the truth we know now. Back then, I only wanted to compile evidence of the many of the countless injustices my mom faced at that mansion while she was alive.”“It was recently that a compiled foo

    Jamie stared at her for a while before patting her hand one last time and retracting it. “Fine, but in case anything happens, let one of my bodyguards accompany you. I'll arrange your transport.”Before Stacy could say anything, Jamie caught her off guard with a slight glare. “Right now, I'm the only sibling you can trust. Edward might be your blood brother, but he's more of a stranger to you than I could ever be right now. Until he's earned your trust, the security set-up won't be relaxed around him at all.”“This is me making a statement. This is me letting him know that you were never alone despite everything. Any trust I give him, he would have to earn it.”Jamie said all of these to level with Stacy in her decisions, making his respectable but understandably cautious stance super clear. In truth, he knew that Edward could never earn his trust.From his deductions through everything he's gathered, Edward certainly isn't a good person. In fact, whatever secret society Benard, Nath

    Edward sighed as he began folding his sleeves. “Fine, you're not actually that bad. I can spare you, but you're definitely not escaping proper punishment.”He held up his arm with the luxurious wristwatch on his wrist, and he gazed at his assistant with a pitiful stare that contradicted the sadistic uptilt that tugged slightly at the corner of his lips. “Trust me, this will hurt you more than it hurt me.”William knew this was a blatant lie. In fact, he knew that Edward knew that he knew that those words were lies. Edward was definitely going to take pleasure in punishing his assistant.Edward tilted the watch and a slight click was heard. What followed was a loud hum at the back of William's neck.William's face scrunched up in agony as his body tensed up. Then the sound of high voltage was heard and the assistant began convulsing tremendously.He fell back to the ground, foaming at the mouth as the electrocution didn't cease for a second.The punishment lasted for half an hour, by

    “Aaarrrgh!”A chuckle could be heard getting closer and the severely wounded officer could see the arachnid form of Assistant William Jerbel hanging off the side of the building like a true spider. Even from the distance of three floors, including the disadvantage of exhausted and teary eyes, the wounded police officer could still see the haunting smile on the face of this half-dark entity. William yelled out his words in between mocking chuckles, the dagger still embedded deep in his eyes. “Seriously, I've gotta give it to you. Jumping out of a building at such a height, just to get away from me…...”He chuckled briefly. “The LA police department definitely sent their best officer to look into my boss didn't they? Too bad you met me.”He began pulling the dark tendrils like the rope, moving his head to the officer's scream of agony as he was being pulled back up to that floor, kegs first.After all, these dark tendrils were pulling the unfortunate officer through the wounds they ha

    Having been the private driver of Edward for more than a month, he had mapped many escape routes. He knew where to run to get away from here, and that monster, as fast as possible.The monster in the car was looking less like a human as his skin began to move like a suit that was losing its form, undulating horrendously with every struggle.After a couple of seconds, Edward stopped struggling to remove the dagger from his eyes. It had been ruthlessly plunged deep into his eyes.He sat up straight, murmuring to himself. “Oh, I'm starting to feel pain. Fuck, his aim is good. I gotta give him that. Now, I'm mad. He has to pay before he dies today. I'll make sure to let out my anger at him.”With every word, the dark smile on his face became maddening as he attempted to open the door on the passenger side, only to find that it was locked.A second later, he figured that the officer had locked it from the driver's side. “A well-trained spy, huh? The city's police force is definitely gonna

    The undercover police officer found his window of opportunity. There was a dagger he had hidden beneath the seat ever since he got this job. This had always been for emergencies like this. Though this police officer has no idea that he would be discovered at all, not to mention this soon, and that he would end up needing his hidden dagger this early.He steadily reached beneath the seat through the small space between his seat and the closed door, sliding his palm tight through.The entire time, his eyes never left Assistant William's horribly morphed face. His hand finally reached the hilt of his dagger and he had just firmly held onto it when he felt something sliding over the back of his palm.He froze as he felt the moving body was wet and thick. It was like a wet tentacle feeling his hand. A horrible deduction lit up in his mind.This police officer made his decision as he swung his hand out of cover, straight towards Assistant William's neck. But a thin spike suddenly shot rig
