"You're invited by the master to be in the mansion other than gawking here in your car."
Calixto looked up at the man who yanked the car's door open before he could even notice his presence—their presence because another man pulled Iris from the passenger and his thought of fighting them off disappeared from his mind the moment he saw Iris unconscious in the arms of the man who removed her out of his car.
"Take your hands off her," he snarled, baring his fangs to the man who was carrying an unconscious Iris on his shoulder like she was a sack of potatoes.
The man didn't react to his warning, instead, he left in the blink of an eye and before he could follow him, the man who aggressively opened his car door, held him down and he had to fight him off for a good ten minutes before the man said. "You're wasting your time, fighting me. Your human slave is probably now in the mansion. Erik is one of our best runners."
