Run, Els ..
Run..
The cells in Ellyan's brain seemed to be humming an orchestra, asking her to run out of here.
Even though in the end, Ellyan could only clench her fists tightly, intending to walk back to the cashier counter.
"You're just overthinking, Els. They're just ordinary costumer."
She whispered softly.
Maybe because of a strange incident last night, Ellyan was easy to think badly. After all, while she was an employee here Ellyan had met strange people quite often.
Starting from the perverted uncle who offered himself to be a sugardaddy, to the strange man who had suddenly come and asked Ellyan to marry. And all of them, Ellyan casually faced.
Maybe the fear of not having money overcame the fear of freaks.
"Good evening, can I help you?"
Ellyan greeted kindly.
The two men who stood in front of the cashier immediately turned their bodies, gave Ellyan a glance before looking away.
Relief immediately flooded Ellyan's heart. Ah, looks like it is really Ellyan alone who thinks too much.
"Now let's forget about yesterday's problems for a moment Els. If you think too much, you might have gray hair faster. "
Ellyan muttered to herself. She then continued her steps which had stopped.
Ellyan glanced at the groceries of the two men. Two packs of cigarettes and two bottles of instant coffee.
"This is it, sir? Any other?."
Ellyan asked, scanning the groceries of two men who stared at Ellyan closely.
'Ignore, Els, ignore. They are just weird men like you often meet. Not the three weird guys you met last night. Or even a vampire. '
Ellyan continued to chant those words in her heart, to get rid of the feeling of fear that had emerged again when these two men continued to stare at Ellyan without stopping.
As if they were investigating Ellyan. Actually Ellyan also observed these two men. It's just that, Ellyan did it secretly. Staring at them from the corner of her eye while matching them with vampire traits.
Tanned skin, dark brown eyes, dark hair. Okay, typical male traits in general.
'But why do you guys keep staring at me, huh?'
Ellyan grumbled in her heart.
"15 dollars, sir."
Said Ellyan, handing over the groceries of the two men.
Of course Ellyan still had a business smile on her face.
No matter how scared she is, Ellyan has promised to stay professional because she doesn't want Leonil's kindness to her to go in vain.
One of the men in a leather jacket over his body handed Ellyan the money. His face still looks flat, with eyes that are still focused on staring at Ellyan.
Ellyan struggled to hold herself back from asking what their problem was for they looked at her like this. She quickly handed over the change.
"Thank yo..."
"Ah, your smell seems to have been disguised."
Huh ?, Ellyan looked at the man confused when suddenly the man spoke. His face, which was originally flat, has now changed. Looks full of interest and curiosity.
"Sorry sir ?, what do you mean ?."
The man was grinning now, revealing two canines gleaming in the light.
"Ah, I'm curious. What is the reason you don't smell blood like a normal human. "
He said in a low voice.
He then grabbed Ellyan's collar, forcing Ellyan's body to lean towards him. Ellyan's body could only follow the man's hand movements. Even in her head, Ellyan wanted to fight back and get away from that man.
Ellyan even plans to take a hammer that she has already kept near the counter, as a safety tool when she faces strangers like this.
But, Ellyan seemed hypnotized, couldn't do anything. Even when the man's mouth began to stick to Ellyan's neck. The hair on Ellyan's neck stood up when she felt the man's tongue starting to lick Ellyan's neck.
"Hey,"
"What are you doing?."
Leonil's appearance caused the man's movement to stop. He even took his mouth away from Ellyan's neck. Turning her gaze towards Leonil with an amused gaze,
"Wow, there are heroes, huh?"
Inside, Ellyan felt relieved. Thank goodness Leonil came. Otherwise, Ellyan doesn't know what will happen to her now.
"You better go because I already called the police."
Leonil ordered, his hands now raised, brandishing a gun that Ellyan saw for the first time.
Normally, Leonil had never taken this extreme. At most Leonil only threatens by calling the police. But, the next second Ellyan's eyes widened in shock.
The relief in her heart immediately turned into a feeling of horror when the man who had been standing beside the man in the leather jacket suddenly lunged at Leonil, grabbed his neck and lifted Leonil up high.
Until..
Crack ..
The sound of bones breaking rang out, along with Leonil's head drooping to his right side ...
