[Catherine’s angle]
However, I never expected that she would disappear in just half an hour.
I asked Evelyn’s classmate. She said Evelyn had left with a very good-looking man.
I questioned the girl why she didn’t stop Evelyn. Although I knew that I shouldn’t blame others like this because no one needed to be responsible for Evelyn’s whereabouts, I couldn’t control my emotions. There were too many bad scenes in my mind. Or did the Capes take her away?
The girl was frightened by me and her face turned a bit pale. In the end, she still told me that Evelyn left willingly with that man, and that it was Evelyn who had taken the initiative to hit on the man. I asked about the man’s appearance. She said that the man was very fair, had short flaxen hair, and blue eyes. He was someone that stood out in a crowd at a glance.
I wanted to call the police at once, but it was already late at night, and there were only guards on duty at the police station. They would only look for her tomorrow. Besides, if the police wanted to search for a person, they had to investigate it. If they heard that Evelyn was willing to go with the man, it would definitely affect her reputation. Most importantly, Putinino Town wasn’t big. Once rumors spread, how could Evelyn live in town?
In an instant, I thought of many things, causing my brain, which had been ravaged by alcohol, to feel an excruciating pain.
Evelynn, where did you go? I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to find her again!
Trying to calm my trembling body, I forced myself to think in the best possible way. If Evelyn hadn’t met a bad guy like a human trafficker, the place she would go with that man would be…
The hotel!
In a few hours, I ran through hotels of all sizes until I reached the most remote one.
It was already dawn, and there was only one hotel left. If there was still no sign of Evelyn, I would go to the police station to report it.
The location of this hotel was remote and sparsely populated, so very few people liked to stay here. I didn’t have much hope that Evelyn would appear here.
But before I reached the door, a white figure rushed out.
That was Evelyn!

After seeing the lunatic and stoic man out, I felt scared.
I buried myself in the soft pillow and calmed my trembling body. I shouldn’t have forgotten the story I heard from my grandmother about Liam Stuart.
The current ruler of the Kindred, Groser Stuart, wasn’t a good father. What he gave Liam Stuart were only the intention and ruthless means to defend his power.
He threw young Liam to a pack of wild wolves to fight for his life, ordered him to run the regions that harbored hatred for the royal family, and set him up to make him lose his friends again and again.
Liam had escaped death countless times, and even managed to turn the tables when he was in a desperate situation. With such shrewdness and ability, how could he, who had only lived for twenty years, be deceived?
He must have seen through my unloyal thoughts long ago. Or perhaps because of my identity as a witch, or because he doesn’t care about a small lackey like me, he only asked Reese to give me a few gentle warnings before letting it go.
I took a sip of coffee to quell the fear in my mind.
In fact, when I first became the leader of the Lancaster family, I was once full of longing for the House of Stuart and believed that they were the masters I wanted to follow.
That was until I read even more detailed records about the “Dark Decade.” It was a terrifying and tragic era.
In addition to massacring the vampires who were intimate with humans, there were also many vampires who, in order to eliminate their enemies, deliberately accused them of colluding with humans, causing them to lose their lives on groundless charges.
Sorrowful songs of tragedies were sung in the vampire race, but the superior ruler didn’t care about it.
For the first time, I had doubts about the king I followed. I also had doubts about Lady Isla. Was it really right to use iron-blooded suppression and slaughter on vampires who loved humans just because of the prophecy?
Thankfully, though, those were all buried in history. At least that was what I thought back then.
However, as time went by, my interactions with the royal family became more frequent, and I learned more about the family’s secrets. Only then did I realize that the hunt and sanctions had never stopped. It was only the darkness hidden behind the light.
[Reese’s angle]
This was a sleepless night. Not only did I not find the “heretic,” but I also lost Master.
Although I knew that Master had intentionally got rid of me and didn’t want me to follow him, it still hurt me that he didn’t even say goodbye to me.
Looking at the crowd that was gradually leaving in the auditorium, I decided to look around in town while it was still the night.
After all, the sooner they sacrificed the heretic, the sooner the Kindred would have a peaceful life.

Suddenly, a teenager with gray-green eyes and short, chestnut-colored hair entered my sight.
He was somewhat similar to Natalie.
Just as I was about to pull the young man back, the crowd that suddenly flooded out behind me pushed me away from him.
In front of so many humans, it was impossible for me to use the abilities of the Kindred. I could only watch the young man disappear into the crowd.
The young man’s appearance made me recall everything about Natalie Mendes.
