The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 22: The Final Injection
Jack’s sleep was interrupted. He found himself in a locked room. He was lying on a bed, his hands and feet bound to the bed. He couldn’t get up. Turning to the side, he saw another bed next to him, where Sandy was lying, also bound.“Has your sleep ended?” said Dr. Watson, entering the room.Jack didn’t respond. Dr. Watson spoke again, “I have good news for you.”“What good news?”“Don’t get too excited. Be patient. You’ll see in a bit,” Dr. Watson said, then exited the room. A few moments later, he returned with two stretchers.By then, Sandy had woken up. Dr. Watson released the bindings from Jack and Sandy’s hands, but their feet remained tied. They sat up on the bed.When Jack turned to the side, he saw Max and Alissa lying on two other beds, deeply asleep.“They must be your friends?” A devilish grin spread across Dr. Watson’s face.“Yes,” Jack nodded slightly. “They’re our friends. But how did they end up here?”“They came the same way you did.”Jack realized that, just like him
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 23: A Joyous Return
Dr. Watson, holding the syringe of the Vampire virus, slowly moved toward Alissa. Just as he was about to inject the needle into Alissa’s hand, someone hit Dr. Watson on the head with a glass jar. He immediately fell to the ground. The syringe flew out of his hand.“Who? Who hit me on the head?” Dr. Watson shouted.But there was no answer from anywhere. Again, Dr. Watson screamed like an animal. “Who’s here? Who hit me on the head?” Then he was silent for a moment.He picked up another syringe with the Vampire virus and moved toward Sandy. Just as he was about to inject the needle into Sandy’s vein, someone hit Dr. Watson on the head again with a glass jar.This time, he became extremely angry. He started pacing back and forth from inside the room to outside. But he received no answer about who was attacking him. He came back inside the room and firmly shut the door.Then he searched the entire room thoroughly. No one was there. He couldn’t see anyone.After staying silent for a while
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 24: A New Beginning in Haven Brook
The Vampire PrincessAdventure3Cars were speeding along on the busy streets of California and here Luna and Tulip sat on the sand at the Haven Brook beach, watching the ocean. Late last month, they moved from Demons to Haven Brook. Their house was about a mile away from Jack and Max’s. When they wanted to meet up, they came to this spot on the beach. They came here again today. However, there was still no news from Jack or Max.Finally breaking the silence, Luna said, “They still haven’t shown up.”Tulip replied, “They’ll be here any minute. I called Max.” She looked ahead as she spoke. In the distance, Max became visible. “There he is, Max’s coming.”At Tulip’s words, Luna also looked in that direction. She spotted Max, too. He was heading their way.When Max reached them, he was panting. “Sorry for keeping you guys waiting so long. I got caught up with something. My mom sent me to the market, so I got delayed.”Tulip said, “No problem. Sit down. But where’s Jack?”Max sat down besi
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 25: A Whisper in the Dark
Within moments, they reached home. James let out a deep breath upon entering. He sighed in relief and said, "That was a close call. I completely forgot today was the waxing moon." However, no one else was able to understand James’s demeanor. Everyone frowned and stared at him. "What are you talking about?" Jack asked. In response, James said, "You all live in a developed country like America. It’s natural for you not to know about these things." Max stepped forward and said, "This is all going over our heads." He placed a hand on James’s shoulder. "Could you explain everything in detail?" "You won’t believe it when you hear it." "Just tell us first," Jack said, losing patience. "We’ll decide whether to believe it later." "Alright then, listen," James began. "There’s been a curse in this area for many years. On nights of the waxing moon, bloodthirsty monsters emerge. Anyone who crosses their path gets their blood drained by these creatures. To avoid them, every year, on the thir
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 26: A Risky Decision
The vampire sunk its fangs into Luna’s neck, drinking her blood. Everything in front of Luna’s eyes blurred. She couldn’t move. In her final moment of strength, she let out a scream.Tulip, who was sleeping beside her, woke up. She had seen Luna tossing and turning as if struggling with someone. Grabbing Luna’s shoulder, Tulip shook her and said, “Hey, Luna, what’s wrong? Were you having a nightmare?”Luna woke up, staring blankly at Tulip for a few moments. Suddenly, she grabbed Tulip tightly and started saying, “It’ll kill me. It’ll kill me!” “Who’s going to kill you? Luna, what’s happening?” “It’s there! The vampire!” Luna’s face was filled with terror. “It’ll drink all my blood!” “Calm down. There’s no vampire here.” “There is! It’ll kill me. Please save me!” “You were dreaming. Look, it’s just me here. No one else.” “But it’s there!” “Where?” “Outside. It took me there.” “You were just dreaming. Want some water?” Luna calmed down a bit and nodded. Without saying anythi
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 27: The Secret of the Worshipper
Luna drove the jeep. Sofia sat next to her in the passenger seat. The rest sat in the back. Jack placed his hand on James's shoulder and asked, “What’s wrong, James? Why are you crying?” “The lottery is today,” James replied in a detached tone. “What lottery?” “Didn’t I tell you? Every year, on the third night of the waxing moon, a virgin girl has to be sacrificed. The selection is done through a lottery.” “Oh! But why are you crying over it?” “I don’t want to lose my sister.” “Nothing will happen to Sofia. There are other girls in the village. They’ll pick someone else.” “No, there aren’t many left. There were eight girls in the village. Four had already left. And today, Lily died. Now, only three girls remained, including Sofia.” “Don’t cry,” said Max. “We won’t let anything happen to Sofia.” James didn’t seem comforted by Max’s words. He kept crying. “So, when did this whole sacrifice thing begin?” Jack asked. “Thirty years ago.” “Who came up with the idea? I mean, who
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 28: The Impossible Turn
"Is there absolutely no way to turn the car around?" Max asked. "No," Luna shook her head in frustration. "The road is too narrow, and there’s no other path ahead." "What about here? Can’t we turn the car around in this spot?" Jack suggested, pointing at a slightly wider stretch of the road. "Even the best driver in the world probably couldn’t turn a car around in that space. And I’m far from the best," Luna replied. "Well, we can at least try," Jack countered. "Are you crazy? One small mistake, and we’ll tumble straight down that hundred-foot drop," Luna warned, gesturing toward the deep ravine beside the road. Jack glanced at the ravine. It was deep—falling there would have meant certain death. Yet sitting idle in that spot seemed equally dangerous; the situation could have escalated into something life-threatening at any moment. He stared at the ravine for a few moments, absentmindedly licking his bottom lip, then said, "You get out of the car. I’ll give it a shot." Without a
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 29: A Dangerous Decision
"What happened?" asked Jack.No one answered. It seemed like no one even heard him. "Someone tell me, what happened?" he said again."Sofia.." With just that, the maid, Teresa, started crying.Jack understood from Teresa's words what happened. Still, to be sure, he asked, "Was there a lottery?""Hmm." Teresa nodded. "Sofia should be informed."With their help, James and Sofia learned Italian in just two days. Jack learned a little more than the rest, which is why he had no trouble understanding Teresa's words.Meanwhile, James wrapped his arms around Sofia and started crying. Amelia had lost consciousness. Luna was pouring water over her head. Mr. Michael sat quietly. He seemed like a statue, frozen by grief. Everyone was silent. No one spoke a word.The whole house seemed to be under the shadow of sorrow."Sofia will be fine. We won’t let anything happen to her." Jack said, placing a hand on Mr. Michael's shoulder.In response, Mr. Michael hugged him and started crying.Jack looked a

"Luke, aren't your pants made of denim?" Jack suddenly asked."Ugh!" Luke swatted a mosquito away. Then he said, "Yeah, it's denim. Why, what's up?""Can your phone's battery be removed?""Yeah, it can.""That'll do.""What'll do?""Charging," Jack said mysteriously."Charging what?" Luke asked, confused."Ugh, just do something quickly!" Lily said impatiently, smacking her own cheek — actually swatting a mosquito. "These bloodsuckers are going to drain us dry."Ignoring Lily, Jack told Luke to take out his phone's battery. Luke fumbled in the dark and managed to remove it. "Now what?" he asked."Rub the battery's charging slot against your jeans," Jack instructed.Finally, Luke understood. As an engineering student, he felt embarrassed that such a simple idea hadn't crossed his mind. Without another word, he firmly rubbed the battery's charging slot against his pants. Though they couldn’t see in the dark, the rough scratching sound made it clear he was doing it.Jack said, "Once you'
Chapter 105: A Faint Hope in the Jungle
They had been walking for quite a while. Everyone was exhausted. Suddenly, Orin dropped onto a pine log, declaring that he couldn’t go any further. The others were just as worn out, so they all decided to rest right there. They had lunch with the water and the deer meat they had with them. After a short break, they set off again."How much longer do we have to keep walking?" Lily asked impatiently."Until we find the Yaku River," Jack replied indifferently."In other words, until we get rescued," Luke added."Yeah, exactly," Jack agreed."Do you think we’ll actually get rescued?" Orin asked, his voice filled with doubt."Hmm." Jack sighed. "Only time will tell.""And when exactly will that time come?" Lily asked impatiently.Suddenly, Jack stopped in his tracks, making everyone else pause in surprise. Lily was about to ask what was wrong, but Jack raised his hand, signaling her to be quiet. She fell silent immediately.Jack stood still, straining his ears to catch something. "Do you g
Chapter 104: Flickers in the Firelight
Lily stared at the fire. It burned brightly, its orange glow lighting up everything around it. Nocturnal animals filled the jungle with their calls, the constant noise almost deafening to Lily. She had been awake for quite a while now. Around midnight, she was supposed to wake Jack. She pulled her phone out of her pocket to check the time, but it was dead. No charge. Finally, she glanced at her wristwatch. In the dim light, she saw that it was already twelve. Just as she was about to wake Jack, she noticed him sitting on the hammock. That meant he had woken up on his own."When did you wake up?" Lily asked."Just a little while ago," Jack replied."Well, good thing you did. I was about to wake you.""Alright then, you get some sleep. I’ll keep watch."Lily wished him goodnight and lay down. Jack sat quietly on the hammock. After a while, he noticed the firewood was running low. The flames were almost out. He climbed down, added a few branches onto the glowing embers, and went back to
Chapter 103: Where’s Luke?
Orin is scared. She doesn’t know what to do now. Should she call out to them?No, that might startle the animals. That could make things even worse. When animals get startled, they become aggressive.What are those two?Tigers, bears, or leopards? Or something else?Orin hasn’t seen the animals yet. But from their growls, she can tell they’re fierce and large. The animals are slowly approaching the camp. Yes, there are two of them. Orin sees four eyes glowing in the darkness. One animal wouldn’t have four eyes. Nor would it have just one. Each animal has two eyes, so there must be two of them.The animals crept closer and closer until they reached Jack’s hammock. Orin’s heart pounded wildly in her chest. She was frozen with indecision. Then suddenly, an idea struck her.Luke was lying in the hammock closest to Orin. She poked him with a stick. He didn’t wake the first time, but on the second try, he stirred. As he sat up, he was about to make a sound, but Orin quickly put a finger to
Chapter 102: Right in Front of You
The jaguar was about fifteen feet away from them. A distance it could cover in a single leap. And it wouldn't take more than a few moments for it to make that jump.The jaguar leaped from its position. It was mid-air when something extraordinary happened. The smallest and most frightened among them stepped forward. Without a second thought, it lunged at the beast, which was at least twenty-five times its size. It knew it stood no chance, knew it would meet certain death, yet it leaped — only to save its friends. It could have run away and saved itself.Though it couldn't match the jaguar's strength, Don managed to hold it off for a few moments with sheer cunning. Don's sharp claws slashed across the jaguar's face. The sight of such a tiny dog daring to attack enraged the jaguar even more. With a shake of its head, it hurled Don to the ground. Even after hitting the ground, Don didn't give up. It charged again at the jaguar. But this time, Don couldn't hold it off. The jaguar struck th
Chapter 101: The Black Terror
Don stared at the large bush with a fearful gaze, barking furiously."Hey Don, what's wrong now?" Lily grabbed Don's collar and asked. Don glanced at Lily once, then turned back to the bush and started barking again."There's something over there," Jack said in a serious tone.Everyone immediately turned to look at him. "Something dangerous?" Orin's eyebrows furrowed."Yeah!" Jack nodded absentmindedly. "Something dangerous.""I think so too," Luke added. "There's definitely something scary over there."The two girls grew even more frightened after hearing Luke and Jack. "What do we do now?" Orin asked, her voice trembling.Without answering, Luke readied his bow and arrow. Jack picked up the wooden spear. The girls didn’t need to be told what to do. Watching Jack and Luke prepare was enough for them to understand. They each grabbed a spear and got ready.Don kept barking non-stop. No matter what they did, they couldn’t calm him down. At one point, Orin saw a shadow moving on the othe
Chapter 100: Don the Defender
The fastest snake in the world is the black mamba. It can cover nearly five meters per second. It is also one of the deadliest venomous snakes on Earth, said to rank just behind the king cobra. Interestingly, the black mamba isn’t black at all; its body is a dark grayish-olive color, though at birth, even that shade isn’t present. As it grows older, its color deepens. The name "black mamba" comes from the inky black color inside its mouth. When threatened, it raises its head high like a king cobra and hisses loudly — just like it was doing now. The black mamba doesn’t stop after one strike; it bites repeatedly, pumping venom into its enemy. Its venom is primarily neurotoxic, attacking the nervous system directly. Just a single drop is enough to cause a heart attack and kill a full-grown human in fifteen minutes.The snake was so close, it wouldn’t take a second to lunge at Luke. Death stood right before him, and he knew it. He could see no hope of escaping alive.The snake raised half
Chapter 99: Where’s Luke?
After searching for quite a while, Luke couldn't find anything except four bird eggs. Finally, feeling frustrated, he sat down on a tree stump. But then, he quickly realized that sitting still wouldn't do. He had been out for quite a while. If he took any longer, they would start to worry. So, sitting there was no use. It would be better to head back to the camp. Surely, Jack must have found something. But what if, just like him, Jack didn't find anything? The thought made Luke pause. Then what would they do with these four eggs? They would have to go hungry.A bunch of such thoughts kept swirling in Luke’s mind. At that moment, he noticed a bush rustling nearby. He knew that bushes don’t move on their own. Someone was disturbing it. So there must be something inside. But what was it? A dangerous, fierce animal? Luke didn’t want to think further. He quickly moved behind a tree for cover, keeping his ears alert for any sound, ready to hear the slightest noise. He kept his gaze fixed on
Chapter 98: Out of the Darkness
Lily opened her eyes and saw someone leaning towards her. At first, it was unclear, but slowly, the face became clearer. Seeing Jack, a spark of joy flashed in her eyes.Lily couldn’t speak. She didn’t have the strength to speak. Only a faint smile appeared at the corner of her lips. Jack gave her water to drink. Lily lay on his lap. In this condition, there was no way Lily could climb the vine. So, he would have to figure out how to lift her. But how?Jack sank deep into thought. His mind had already started working to find a solution. Within moments, the path to a solution revealed itself to him. Now, they just needed an extra vine. One that was right above, near Luke.Luke and Orin were sitting above, holding their phone's flash at the mouth of the hole. They waited eagerly. At that moment, they heard Jack’s call. He needed another vine. Without delay, Luke threw one end of the vine into the hole. He held the other end himself.As soon as the vine was in hand, Jack began his work.
