THE THIRD MATING
A large table sat in the center, covered in maps, papers, graphs, and diagrams scattered like someone had been frantically working.
The air smelled of old paper and something sharp, almost like blood.
We crowded around the table, my eyes drawn to the strange drawings. The diagrams showed creatures,bhuman-like but wrong, with long fangs, or claws too sharp for any wolf. My breath caught as I read the handwritten notes: Hybridization Process: Wolf Blood Integration. Words like “vampire” and “Dracula strain” were scrawled everywhere, alongside charts about mixing wolf blood to create a hybrid, half wolf, half something monstrous.
