Chapter 94: The Chase In The Forest
– Has everything been thoroughly prepared? William spoke up as soon as he saw Henry enter the room.
– Yes, sir. I have already informed the hunter group.
William nodded, brought the cigarette to his lips, and blew the smoke into the space in front of him.
This time, he was unable to attend Anatole’s party because of the unexpected inspection schedule of the General Inspection Department, but thanks to that, he was able to plan to handle his concerns a little earlier.
– How is Maris?
– She didn’t even dare to move. Perhaps because he was afraid that the garlic water tank would open.
While the two men gloated about having subdued the female vampire, in the dark underground prison, Maris kept moaning in pain.
She cannot heal herself when every day, William only gives her a little blood.
The pipe hanging down from the top of the glass cage is where he puts the blood into. She didn’t even dare leave this position because she was worried that if she didn’t get here in time, blood would fall to the floor. Her eyes were always glued to it and waiting.
Seeing drops of blood falling from the pipeline, she opened her mouth to catch them until there were no more drops left.
– I’m really stupid, aren’t I, Vincent? You are no longer in this world, who will save me?
She knew that if Harvey and Samson knew she was here, they would do everything they could to save her, but they probably still thought she was at the castle right now.
However, she would rather die here, would rather be tortured and tormented than see those two guys put themselves in danger.
Maris did not know that at this time, Harvey and Aurora were on their way to the western forest because they believed that the woman Henry mentioned was her.
Although Harvey tried to persuade Aurora to stay home, she refused. So he had to carry her along because if she drove by herself it would be very dangerous.
This time frame is the time when hunters and police patrol. But throughout the journey, Harvey did not encounter any hunters and he easily took Aurora to the edge of the forest.
– Ten minutes left until nine o’clock. Harvey put Aurora down and said.
Both of them quickly hid in the forest and observed. Harvey’s plan is very simple, as long as he sees the car carrying Maris stop, he will knock out all her kidnappers and take her away.
– You just stay here, if you run out you’ll distract me. He whispered in Aurora’s ear.
– I see. She nodded, her eyes still staring at the deserted road in front of her.
Ten minutes have passed but still no movement. Aurora began to feel worried and impatient.
Why did she forget that they might change locations? However, how did she know where they would meet?
– Ah… ah… ah…
The scream of the person next to her made Aurora startled and immediately looked over.
She panicked when she saw Harvey falling on the floor of rotting leaves. Reflexively, she immediately looked around and noticed many lights shining in the forest.
– The cross… the cross. Aurora stammered.
The mysterious lights continuously affected Harvey even though he tried to roll to avoid them and even though Aurora was trying to use her body to shield him in front.
However, she was too small, and had no clone technique, and the hunters appeared from more than one side.
It seemed like they had already set up an ambush here.
As fast as the wind, the hunters used ropes with iron hooks to throw them onto tree branches and rushed closer to their prey.
The night is dark and the trees are dense, but it seems that these things cannot hinder them because they have skills that have been trained over many years.
Soon, Aurora and Harvey were surrounded in the middle, he struggled to drag her from tree to tree to avoid the beams of light capable of destroying vampires.
– Hug me tightly, no matter what happens, don’t let go.
– Yes.
After whispering a few words into Aurora’s ear, he hugged her tightly and rushed in one direction. If he keeps avoiding this siege, he is afraid he will be exhausted and die, so he must find a way out.
– Catch him, take out the iron net. Peter shouted.
The iron nets were quickly pulled out by the hunters, two people in each group aimed in Harvey’s direction and rushed forward. However, they kept missing him and fell.
Aurora closed her eyes. She didn’t know what was happening around her, she just felt the sky and earth spinning, extremely dizzy.
– Damn it. Harvey hissed as the iron hook from the net scratched his hand.
He originally didn’t want to kill them, so he tried to escape before the pain and anger caused him to reveal his true form. And now, it has happened.
The gentle eyes gradually turned blood red, the claws gradually lengthened and two sharp fangs appeared behind the black cloth covering half of the face.
The light from the two lamps above the two hunters’ heads helped them notice his change.
They quickly put their hands in their pockets. But before they could take out the cross, Harvey rushed forward, picked this man up, threw him into a tree trunk, and then used his sharp claws to scratch the other man, causing him to lose consciousness.
The amount of blood loss was so much that Harvey was dizzy. He put Aurora down, took her hand, and rushed into the opposite forest.
The unexpected attack left him so seriously injured that he did not have enough strength to carry her back, so he had to hide first.
If they keep running on the main road, he fears it will be even more dangerous.
– Hurry up and chase them. Peter hissed, signaling his teammates.
The forest, which was always wild and lonely, suddenly became noisy with the sound of thunderous footsteps stepping on dry leaves.
When receiving information from a secret man, Peter half believed and half doubted but still decided to ambush this place early, and in the end, he saw what he wanted to see, a vampire.
Aurora couldn’t see anything and could only run after Harvey. She also didn’t have time to turn around to see if the hunters had almost caught up with her and him. She felt like she was about to stop breathing.
– Ah…
The slip when going down the slope caused Aurora to lose her balance and fall, dragging Harvey with her.
He didn’t care about the large bleeding burns on his body but only cared about the wound on her hand caused by the tree branch.
– I’m sorry, are you very hurt?
In the dark space, he could still see the tears on her face. He was sad and heartbroken because of her, and she felt regretful for standing in his way.
– Harvey, ignore me, they won’t harm humans. Please run away quickly. Aurora urged.
– Maybe they will secretly interrogate you or use you as bait to lure me, you idiot.
He tried to pull her onto his back and carry her away. He has no faith in humans, except for her and Bonita’s clan.
Who knows if these hunters just happened to pass by here or if they are William’s henchmen? He didn’t want to risk her life, he had to take her with him.
The light from the headlamps of the group of hunters got closer and closer, but Harvey’s speed got slower and slower.
Aurora could smell blood entering her nose and at a close distance, she realized her hands were covered in red blood. It’s all Harvey’s blood.
Her heart ached when she thought of the pain he was trying to endure.
– Ah…
Another strong fall caused them both to roll down the long steep slope and lie on the ground. Aurora tried to endure the pain, crawled up, and searched.
Her eyes were not capable of seeing in the dark and there was not a single ray of light here.
– Harvey, Harvey, are you okay? She was happy when she caught his hand with sharp claws.
– Run quickly, Aurora. Find a place to hide and… and ask Michael to help you. If they catch me, they won’t… won’t look for you. Please try to wait until Michael arrives… – Harvey’s voice broke.
– No, I won’t leave you behind. That will never happen.
The power of love helped Aurora calm down. Just now, he protected her, now, she will protect him.
She knew she didn’t have the strength to carry him, so she had no choice but to try her best to drag him into the bushes, then search for her phone in her pocket and call Michael.
Samson’s cooperation with Michael was a secret, so she and Harvey could not ask him to help rescue Maris and neither of them thought that this was just a trap.
But now, she was forced to bother him. Luckily Samson gave her Michael’s phone number.
– Mr. Michael, I am Doctor Aurora, please come to the forest west of the city to help me. Mr. Harvey is seriously injured and the hunters are chasing us. She said quickly as soon as she heard Michael’s voice.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
– Please hide somewhere, we are patrolling nearby, and we will be there soon.
After saying that, Michael called Bevis, telling him to gather close comrades who knew about the cooperation between the police and vampires to go to the western forest to rescue Harvey.
Michael also assigned the task of blocking and checking to his subordinates and then drove away.
There was no time for him to ask clearly why that noble vampire and the doctor went to that dark place.
Receiving a phone call from his superiors, Bevis and the patrol group immediately got in the car and set off. He took advantage of the time to drive and call other teammates.
At this time, in the bushes, Aurora was still shivering and praying for the hunters not to go down this slope.
If the crosses on their hands glowed when they encountered Harvey, he would no longer have a way to live.
The group of hunters did not disperse but walked together, in their hands were crosses held high. Two people in the team were seriously injured so they did not dare to be subjective.
Looking up from the bottom of the slope, Aurora could see the spots of light coming from the lights above their heads moving.
She pursed her lips and squeezed Harvey’s hand in the hope that he would try to endure the pain without making any sound.
She believes that as long as she and he try just a little longer, Michael will come.
– The sound of a tiger. A hunter spoke up when he heard a roaring sound echoing from afar.
The bright spots immediately stopped moving. Everyone nervously looked around and prepared ropes with iron hooks in case the tiger came and used them to climb up the tree.
The tiger is not afraid of the cross and the garlic water, and this sound shows that there is not just one tiger but possibly a group of tigers.
Aurora also heard this scary sound. Could it be that today, she and the person she loved were forced to die here?
She wondered if the tiger that Harvey had thrown away had gathered its accomplices to take revenge on him.
