Aiden and Veronica both slightly widened their eyes.
Ophelia?
Is this guy... planning a jailbreak?
"What do you plan to do with that prisoner?" Aiden asked.
"No more talking, just do it now!!" the vampire woman shouted excitedly, "She must come out wearing the Anti-Magic Shackles, right now!!"
Aware of what this implied, Aiden realized something.
A vampire restrained by Anti-Magic Shackles, would be unable to use blood magic or tap into the vampires' innate shape-shifting abilities; essentially becoming helpless, like a fish on a cutting board.
This guy's goal was not to "rescue" Ophelia, but rather to "kidnap" her.
With a bit of thought, Aiden understood their purpose—they were probably planning to take Ophelia hostage to target Kael Callado.
It seemed the Blood Moon Cult had also noticed the obstruction efforts of the Primogenitor Faction and were preparing a countermeasure.
