"What the fuck happened to the villagers? You were supposed to keep an eye on them." Tyler questioned a shadow guard, who bowed in fear, trembling like a leaf. He had only one job: protecting a group of three women. They were harmless women who preferred to live in the countryside, far away from the bustling city of Coprean Hills.
Tyler was distraught because the disappearance of the three women marked the awakening of something dark that he didn't wish to imagine. It would lead to a war he wasn't ready to start. Blood would flow, and even though he was a vampire, he wouldn't avoid how the outcome would affect him. He had grown accustomed to the peace they were currently enjoying.
"My Lord, I heard the village head sold them to human traffickers. He said they didn't contribute anything to the town, so…" As the words escaped the shadow guard's lips, Tyler took a step but was already in front of the young man.
