Falling for my Vampire Captain 200
Franklin’s POV The officer’s flashlight swept across the window and I screamed. Not words at first, just the raw volume of someone who had been in a car in the dark for too long and had seen the one thing that represented something other than the situation continuing indefinitely. The sound came out of me with everything I had left in the reserves, the specific desperation of someone who understood that this was probably the only checkpoint between where they had been and wherever they were going, and that checkpoints did not come with guarantees of repetition. The flashlight stopped moving. The officer stepped toward the vehicle. I kept screaming. My name, help, the words assembling themselves into something coherent as the initial burst of pure sound found its shape. The window between me and the outside was closed but glass did not make a person inaudible, and the officer was close enough now that the light was directly on the vehicle and I could see the outline of him through

Ethan’s POVThe face stayed with me through the night.I worked the problem the way I worked all problems, methodically and without the distraction of emotion, pulling every thread of documentation I had access to and following each one to whatever it connected to. The image was from a specific decade and the woman in it had the specific quality of someone positioned deliberately rather than incidentally beside the subject, not a background figure, not an accidental inclusion in the frame.She had been important to him.By two in the morning I had enough to confirm the direction. By three I had a name that matched the face and a history that attached to the name. By four I had the shape of what she was and what she had been and what her connection to Rydan meant in the context of everything currently in motion.Sera.The name surfaced through the documentation with the specific weight of someone who had been operating quietly and for a long time in spaces that didn’t produce much docu

Ethan’s POVFranklin asked the question the moment I set my glass down.“What did you put in it?”I looked at him with the mild patience I extended to questions that had already been answered by the circumstances around them. He was pressing his hand against his stomach, the specific gesture of someone whose body had started receiving information that the mind hadn’t fully organised yet, and his face was doing the work of someone trying to assess damage without being able to see the source.“Nothing that will kill you,” I said. “The opposite, actually. Something that makes the tissues more receptive.” I stood and pushed the chair back with the unhurried movement of someone who had eaten well and was satisfied with the meal and the morning. “Think of it as preparation.”“Preparation for what,” he said.“You already know,” I said. “I told you yesterday.”He moved to the edge of whatever he was sitting on and I watched his body make the specific attempt that bodies made when they had bee

Franklin’s POVThe door opened before I had time to process that Ethan’s voice had come from inside the room with me rather than outside it.Two men. The broad, purposeful kind that existed specifically to make other people’s options very small very quickly. They crossed the floor to me before I had done anything useful with the half-second of warning, and the chair went over sideways and I went with it and the floor received me for what felt like the hundredth time in however many days this had been.They held me down with the efficient, impersonal quality of people completing a task, and pulled out what I registered a moment later as leather straps rather than the wipes I had initially processed them as in the shock of the arrival. They worked through me with those straps in the specific methodical sequence of something practiced, and the sounds I made were the sounds I had stopped being embarrassed about making because embarrassment required a resource I was no longer allocating to

Franklin’s POVThe footsteps on the stairs were not quiet.Whoever was coming up wasn’t trying to be subtle about it, which was either confidence or urgency, and both of those things meant the same thing for me in this moment. I was behind the door, pressed into the gap between the frame and the wall where the door swung inward and created a pocket of space that wasn’t visible from the entrance, and I held my breath and stayed completely still and waited.The door opened inward.I watched through the gap at the hinge as Ethan came through and stood in the centre of the empty room and looked at the chair and the rope and the open window with the specific stillness of someone whose plan has produced an unexpected result and is deciding what to do about it.He was still for a long moment.Then he moved to the window and looked out and down, which was the logical sequence, the assumption that someone who had gotten out of that chair had gone through the window that was standing open. He l

Ethan’s POVI watched him come down the street from the window.The particular quality of his movement told me everything I needed to know about the afternoon he had experienced. Not broken, not defeated, but the movement of someone who had been running hard and had stopped running and was now operating on the specific determination of someone who had nowhere left to go except forward. He didn’t see the car. He didn’t see the men I had positioned at the building’s entrance with the casual visibility of people who were simply there.He never looked up.That was the thing about Rydan Millie. Three hundred years and he still moved through the world with the specific blind spot of someone who believed their own capability was sufficient for whatever was in front of them. It was not arrogance exactly. It was the particular confidence of something that had survived long enough to stop expecting to be caught off guard.I found that quality interesting. I also found it useful.I nodded at the

Calen’s POVThe professor was talking about coastal erosion patterns, drawing diagrams on the board with a yellow chalk he always used, and I hadn’t heard a single word he’d said in the last twenty minutes.My notebook sat open in front of me, blank except for the date I’d written at the top out of

Calen’s POVI knew it was wrong.Knew I shouldn’t eavesdrop on Karl’s private conversation. But the doubt eating at me was too strong to ignore.I moved quietly to the glass door, standing just close enough to hear without being obvious about it.Karl’s voice was low, tense. “…can’t keep doing this

Karl’s POVThe question hit me like cold water.“What do you mean?” I asked, turning to face Calen.“You weren’t at school yesterday.” Calen’s expression was carefully neutral, but I could see something else underneath. Suspicion, maybe. Or hurt. “So I’m wondering if you’re actually planning to go

Calen’s POVI woke up to an empty bed and cold sheets.“Karl?” I called out, but silence answered.Panic fluttered in my chest until I saw the note on the pillow beside me, written in Karl’s sharp handwriting.‘Had to take care of something early. Don’t worry. See you at school. - K’I read it thre
