Semua Bab So You Think Your Sister's a Vampire?: Bab 371 - Bab 380

Jamie continued to explain what he thought Holland might do in order to kill off all of the Guardians. “If Hines has figured out what we know about how to turn Guardians back into humans, then he could do that, and then kill us. It wouldn’t be quick, but it is a possibility.”Those were my thoughts exactly. If we had cracked that code, and it seemed like we had, although we hadn’t done any trials yet, why not think that Hines could, too?Christian was shaking his head. “There’s no way she could figure that out so quickly. Hines can’t possibly know as much about genetics and our DNA makeup as Dr. Morrow, and it’s taken him decades to get this far.”Dr. Morrow was a Guardian from Roatan, and Christian had recently started working with him to finish off the formula. It was Christian who’d messed the whole thing up enough that Aaron almost killed himself trying to use it. If Christian was half as smart as h

“Dad?” Brandon asked again, hoping Elliott would say yes and let him get the second round of Transformation serum. I saw a flicker in Elliott’s eyes once more, like he was considering it.“I don’t know, boy,” he said, defeat setting in. “Let me talk to your mom.”Instantly, Brandon’s mood brightened, and I thought about how unfair that was. His mom was supposed to be the crazy, abusive one—but she was likely to say yes to this because she had already basically turned Brandon over to his dad. My mom was the one at headquarters where she could actually see how much of an enhancement the procedure created. And she would absolutely say no.Aaron moved the conversation forward, talking about how we would attack the four bands of Vampires as soon as Jamie was done with the procedures. Once I realized they were talking about how all of that would go down, I tuned back in. Maybe there would be another opportuni

This meeting had already been a long one, and clearly there was more on the agenda, so we left the topic of Daunator in my hands, and Aaron suggested we look at attack groups for the upcoming infiltration. “Let’s assume this whole Transformation serum process takes two days. That means we can plan on moving in on Saturday night/Sunday morning. Unless something goes wrong with this serum situation, in which case we may need more time to make some alterations to the plan. I’ll let all four of the teams handle getting their people together for the pre-hunt meeting, unless you feel like you need me or Cadence there.”He looked around at the other three designated leaders—Elliott, Hannah, and Aurora—and all three of them shook their heads. I had no doubt Elliott and Hannah could handle their teams, but I didn’t think Aurora had ever done anything like this before. She looked a little nervous. I assumed my sister had pulled for one of the l

Closing my laptop, I tried to calm myself down. My heart rate was still faster than normal, even though I was over the initial wave of adrenaline the fight had caused. In the silence around me, I could easily hear the rest of the apartment. My mom was in the other room crying. Part of me wanted to run out and tell her I’m sorry, that I’m still her little girl, and I didn’t mean to be such a horrible brat. Part of me was glad she was so upset. She deserved it, after all. There was no reason for her to stick her nose in my business all the time.I turned on some soothing music to cover the sounds of my mother’s soft sobs and closed my eyes. I needed to figure out who this Daunator person was, and I needed to reach out to Larundel and see if I could find any Vampires that were still there. When Paul attacked, I wanted him to have as much information as possible. Not only was he my cousin, but we were linked now that I had been in his mind so frequently, p

I slept well that night, despite the research I’d done regarding my newest scheme. Brandon and I hadn’t chatted for long because he was still trying to convince his dad to let him go through with the procedure. I knew Elliott would cave, so when I woke up to a message that Brandon would meet me at 7:30 to walk over to the facility to get it done, I wasn’t surprised at all.My mom was dusting again when I came out of the bathroom, towel drying my hair. I wondered if we should buy stock in Pledge. “Good morning, honey. You’re up awfully early.”“Yeah, no training today,” I replied. “Aurora is having her procedure done. So is Brandon.”“Oh.” I was surprised my sister hadn’t mentioned any of this to my parents. “Are you going over there, then?”“If that’s all right,” I replied, thinking it wouldn’t hurt to be polite. I was still upset at her, but
