Vampire Lord's Demonic Wives

[Back to school]

'It seems I have nothing to do here. There is no information on Pike at all, I should head back home now. There is no point in staying here now.'

Zoravec decided to leave when he saw that the other students had been going out. There was no announcement made by the principal about the investigation.

It was strictly told by the pentagon not to announce any such kind of thing. Doing so would just alert the killer and he might escape from the realm. The Pentagon already suspected that the particular doing was not something a vampire or a human could do. Because the way Lyra's body was mutilated it could not be their doing.

Hence it was a crucial moment and there was dire need to find out the culprit before he could hurt anyone else. The special dhampir squad was hired to conduct the investigation since it was not a measly matter or a casual case. When Zoravec arrived at the school everything was calm.

It was not even hinted in any way that any such investigation was happening inside the premises. The guard also had to abide by the rules and regulations implemented by the pentagon. Only if Zoravec had known about the matter, but that could also not save him fro being under the radar of the cops.

'It seems everyone is going back home. I should go too.'

Zoravec muddled to himself and stood up from the seat as he walked past the other students and headed towards the door. He did not pay heed to any of that chattering which was still ongoing in the classroom.

People were dawdling out and going home, Zoravec walked towards the corridor silently while clenching his bag. He glanced at his surroundings while lazily walking so as not to raise any suspicion. Zoravec acknowledged it fully that the cops who were conducting the investigation were not ordinary.

Especially the cop who chatted with Zoravec!

'I have to stay calm and act like everyone else. I was never a chatty person. It would be suspicious of me if I suddenly start inquiring about things.'

Zoravec grasped the gist of his own behavior and figured out at that moment why he failed to get a girlfriend. It made him scoff inwardly upon the whole solution as he walked past the corridor towards that middle ground.

"Are you going home, kid?"

The cop from earlier approached Zoravec from behind, he reflexively turned around immediately with a horrified expression. The man was definitely not an ordinary dhampur but a high ranked  chief officer.  His abilities and capabilities were different from the special squad members who were sent to catch Devi.

'Fuck! Why didn't I hear him coming? Is he a ghost or what?'

Zoravec muddled to himself while questioning his own ability of hearing. How was it even possible for him not to hear his footsteps? It left Zoravec questioning and wondering as he immediately looked up at the cop. William was a lean man with black hair and crimson eyes indicating his status as dhampir.

'What does he want from me now? Does he suspect me?'

He could not help but conclude that because of the way William approaches him. Zoravec always wondered what the high ranked officers looked like, since rumours said they were scary looking people. There were many myths surrounding the top notch dhampirs, they were different from the special squad officers.

There were three ranks in dhampirs too depending on their capabilities and the mutations they had undergone. Class A were assassins and commandos, walking amongst the ordinary people while conducting their tasks. Masters of disguise and possessing control over their aura, class A dhampirs were barely detectable. Hence, nearly invincible.

Class B consisted of people who were appointed as law regulators. Such as William, who was working as one of the high ranked officers in the crime department. They were sharp and witty people who were responsible for conducting special tasks. William was sent along with his trained soldiers who were skilled in tracking the unusual activities in the realm.

William had seen Lyra's body with his own eyes and concluded that the very thing was the result of some outsider's involvement. It was still not clear whether anybody had intruded or not, there were no such traces and the possibility was slim due to strictness. Now the question remained unanswered, how did Devi manage to trespass then?

There were a lot of questions which made Zoravec wonder too but he had a lot on his hands to deal with first. Just like the deaths and disappearance of class C officers was the crucial matter, and he still had no idea how to deal with that. Even though those officers were class C dhampirs and were associated to the special squad, which were assigned to handle measly activities.

Well, catching and eradication I a demoness was a measly matter compared to an usual murder which was a picture of plain horror!

Zoravec knew he required some help from an insider, someone who was either a high ranked person or had a way to enter pentagon headquarters. After all, when Hecate called for help the  record of that call for the special squad was recorded. There was only one way to eradicate that proof, because Zoravec could not bring back those dead and disappeared officers.

And their sudden disappearance was itself an alarming and suspicious thing. Especially when there was the proof and the record of the call which came from Zoravec's home. There was no hiding and denying that matter, but perhaps fate was on his side as William stopped him in the midway. Zoravec was unsure why William was bestowing extra attention on him, there was only one way to find out.

"Yes, sir. It seems all classes are cancelled, everybody is going home."

Zoravec stood there calmly and pretended to act as normal as he could. He knew that William was able to grasp every slightest change in him. And that's why Zoravec had to be careful with his words, actions and facial behaviours. The mentioning of cancelled classes was one of the most expected answers.

However, William was already suspecting him but for some reason he did not act immediately. Rather, he decided to observe Zoravec and his actions first to find out the authenticity of his suspicion. On the other hand, Zoravec was thinking of something completely different. He acknowledged the rank and had a vague idea of William's strength and his access to the headquarters.

The trap was about to be set now!
