Barbara and I sat together, trying to digest the sheer madness of our reality. But every time I suggested she act as a witness, she seemed to shrink further into herself.

"I'm scared, Lea! What if that evil vampire comes after me? Or what if there’s another one hunting me right now?" she asked, her voice thin and trembling.

"The police are investigating this, Barbara. They’ve even begun to notice the anomalies in the case!" I tried to reassure her.

"But Joe specifically advised me not to get in

    As the three vampire doctors were enjoying their evening at the bar, several police officers arrived and began conducting an inspection."Wow, what are the police doing here?""They seem to be investigating something," Brandon noted."Humans are always like that when one of them dies strangely," Joe answered casually, leaning back."Was there a murder? In this bar?""Yup. Just watch—they’ll be coming over here in a moment," Joe said.Sure enough, one of the officers approached their table. "Good evening, gentlemen. May I have a moment of your time?""Of course, Officer. What’s the matter?" Joe asked, his voice smooth and kind."Have you seen this man? He committed a crime nearby a few days ago." The officer held up a photograph for them to see."I’m sorry, Sir. I’ve never seen him before," Joe lied, his expression flawlessly sincere.Kelvin and Brandon, however, were more inquisitive. "What did he do?" Kelvin asked."He’s suspected of murdering a woman. He is currently a fugitive," th

    Two doctors in the operating room looked at Jonathan with annoyance. One of them seemed forced into action, while the other remained eerily silent."Why didn't you respond quickly? Are you even a doctor? Tch! I have to call someone else!" Jonathan snapped."If you leave this room, you’re going to be in trouble!" one of the doctors growled, his irises beginning to glow a deep, predatory red.Jonathan realized immediately: the two doctors in front of him were vampires. In the hospital hierarchy, Joe was their subordinate, but in the social standing of the vampire world, Jonathan Blavatnik was far above them.Jonathan folded his arms and let his own irises shift color. He grinned, baring his fangs, and the two men in front of him recoiled in shock."It is creatures like you—irresponsible and reckless—who disturb our community!" Joe said, his face dark with fury."Who are you? I’ve never seen you before.""I am Joe Blavatnik! Now, hurry up and do your job as a doctor. If you can’t handle

    When James mentioned a counterstrike, it became clear that a war was coming, making things incredibly dangerous for a witness like Barbara. I told her then and there to stay with me, where I could keep an eye on her."But what about my father?""A person who knows nothing will be safer than you, since you’re a witness!" I answered firmly."I see. Okay, I’ll move in.""Let’s go home now," I said.James walked behind us, keeping his distance but remaining vigilant until we were both safely inside the apartment."You’re still here?" I asked James when we reached the door."I’ll be staying next door for a while! Drex had me occupy his place while he’s gone. If you need anything, just come right in! Don't be shy, Lea," he said with a flirtatious wink."Don't you dare tease me, James!""Hahaha, it turns out Drex’s girlfriend is quite fierce!" James entered Drex’s apartment with an annoying laugh, while I glared at his retreating back."Watch out for him; he’s a total playboy," I warned as I

Because he’s a vampire too, Barbara. He doesn't want the existence of his kind exposed to the masses.""No, Joe cares about me, Lea. He wants to protect me from the crimes of those monsters!"I looked my best friend in the eye. "You really believe him, Barbara? Are you certain?""Yes, I trust him! He’s been good to me, Lea. He’s a true friend who tells me everything. He even took me to his apartment to show me what a vampire’s life is act

    Tom and Bob led Drex to a private interrogation room, away from the main holding area."This is it? No mattress?" Drex complained."We need to talk to you, Drex," Tom said seriously. "There are too many anomalies in this case. Following your advice, we went to Mediyoung Company, and we found exactly what you described.""I told you there were vampires there," Drex said, his tone turning sharp."We found mass-produced goat blood," Bob added. "Neat, professional packaging. And then we received that CCTV footage from an anonymous source. It’s clear someone is trying to frame you.""If you know I’m innocent, why am I in handcuffs?"“Because we need your help,” Tom explained. “If we ‘arrest’ you, the real killers will think they’ve succeeded. It gives us a chance to find them while they aren't looking over their shoulders.”“But we don’t know what we’re up against,” Bob admitted. “You said there was more than one vampire. That’s a nightmare for us.”"And what’s in it for me?" Drex asked. "

    Barbara, now burdened with the terrifying reality of vampires, could hardly find peace within her own walls. She felt a constant need to be alert, jumping at the sight of anyone approaching. In a desperate bid for safety, she threw her house wide open. Every window was unlatched, every door flung wide, and every curtain pulled back to let the afternoon sun flood the rooms.Casting a suspicious eye on her household staff, Barbara ordered them all outside to exercise in the scorching heat. Though her assistants looked at her with confusion and reluctance, they complied. Barbara watched them intensely, relieved to see that despite the sweat and heat, they showed no signs of distress under the sun."Okay, we’re done!" Barbara announced, her voice trembling with relief. "You can all go back inside and finish your work."None of them were vampires. At least, not the kind that burned.With her home secured, Barbara’s thoughts turned to Lea. She remembered Joe’s warning about the "sweetness"
