He stopped abruptly.
Why would he pause now?
Driven by curiosity, I urged, âAnd what else?â
Caleb massaged his forehead, appearing troubled.
After a moment, he said solemnly, âHoney, if Iâm correct, that world is probably full of vampires, and our murderer from the Thorn Edge Pack is one of them.
â
I stood frozen, disbelief creeping through me as I drew in a sharp breath of cold air.
Vampires were indeed a formidable species.

However, werenât these savage beings, known for their insatiable thirst for fresh blood, merely relegated to the pages of ancient texts?
Could it be possible that they walked among us?
Ivy mirrored my astonishment, her voice trembling as she exclaimed, âMy God! Is this a dream?â
My heart raced, struggling to accept the reality unfolding before me.
Yet, upon meticulously recalling the traits of the perpetrator, he eerily aligned with those of the vampire lore.
Ancient texts had long chronicled that vampires thrived under the cover of night, shunning sunlight and making darkness their domain.
Vampires were known not to rely on conventional weapons; their razor-sharp fangs alone possessed the power to drain a personâs lifeblood entirely, transforming the living into lifeless husks.
Taking into account the circumstances and timing of the deaths of both victims and a cat, it became apparent that the perpetrator indeed embodied these ominous characteristics.
I pressed my lips together, a sense of unease stirring within my chest.
After inhaling deeply, I approached Caleb and asked, âAre you certain, Caleb? Is this information reliable?â
Caleb nodded.
His gaze grew heavy, his expression burdened as he spoke softly.
âItâs true.
Iâve questioned him myself.
The culpritâs name is Enzo Holmes, and in his words, he inadvertently disclosed the existence of another world.
â
My palms grew slick with sweat, and my heart hammered relentlessly against my chest.
Struggling to steady my thoughts, I inquired, âAnd where is Enzo currently held?â
Observing my demeanor, Caleb replied honestly, âHeâs being held in the deepest reaches of the packâs dungeon, under heavy guard.
â
âI seeâ¦â
That did provide a bit of relief, ensuring that Enzo wouldnât be slipping away anytime soon.
