Chapter 361: You Don’t Have a Choice
I have never t a vampire before, Vampires were a rare species and they liked to keep to themselves and show themselves if necessary. There was a barrier around the whole of Juneau because of the supernatural creatures living here, mostly witches. Vampires craved magic blood and it was what suited their taste the most.
What is this vampire doing here?
How did he get past the barrier?
How on earth does he know who Emma is?
"Well?" he urged with a raised eyebrow but I didn’t say a word, making sure my weapon was pointed at his neck in case he tried anything funny.
He grabbed my knife by the tip with his black leather gloved hand and shifted it away from his neck not even threatened by it.
"I believe I asked a question, Grayson"
"I’m not obligated to answer any of your fucking questions" but then I paused when it hit . "H-How do you know my na?"
He tilted his head to the side smirking. "Of course, I know who you’re Grayson" he mused.
Was he toying with
right now?
He darted his eyes to Emma in my arms. "There’s no ti to dull follow " he rose to his feet all of a sudden.
"What makes you think I would listen to you?"
He chuckled facing
with hands hidden in his slacks pocket. "You don’t get a choice, Grayson" he licked his lips.
"I have one..." I clenched my teeth. "Slit your throat"
"As much as I would love to indulge in that fun I will pass, think smart before engaging in anything stupid. So you either follow
and find out how I know you and why or I rather kill you and take her,"
"I won’t let you lay a finger on her!"
But I knew it was just words to
no matter how I tried, maybe he wasn’t the only one who ca, or maybe there were others either way I don’t stand a chance.
"Shall I convince you?"
I heard multiple footsteps and I swallowed hard when about five other vampires in black suits ca into view.
"Convinced enough?"

I was led to three SUVs packed in an area, I subconsciously held Emma tightly when the door was opened for .
"Where are you taking ?"
"I have an abode just outside the barrier, We can’t do our talking out in the wild" he faces
smirking.
I’m not thinking, I’m not using my head and right now I was gonna step into a vehicle with these strange vampires, but it wasn’t like I had a choice, it was either follow or die.
"Hesitant are we?" he said suddenly, squatting and picking up TJr. who I just realized was following us all along, he ows feeling familiar with that Vampire. TJr. was a repulsive cat, he didn’t let anyone apart from us hold him. "This little cat of yours trusts , shouldn’t you too?" he darted his black eyes to mine.
"What are you trying to say?" I demand
"It led
to you" he helped TJr into the SUV. "Convinced enough"
"No"
Because it’s crazy, there was no way a cat would have led him to . But judging by the way he spoke I don’t think he’s lying. It was all ssed up in a lot of ways.
"You have questions... Don’t worry you will get them soon enough"
~
I was cautious the entire ti, but I didn’t feel any impending threat, I was only led to this car and now we are heading to god knows where. I was given a blanket to cover Emma who remained bloody in my arms. According to this Vampire he said she shouldn’t get too cold, I don’t know what he ant because she was already cold to begin with.
Maybe he didn’t want to get blood in his perfect seat.
"Who are you?"
He huffed scrolling through his phone. "Now you ask?"
"I wasn’t exactly given a choice to begin with"
"Well as long as you behave" he stopped typing. "Luther Zalatoris"
Zalatoris... that surna sounds familiar.

"Your sister has t
once"
I snapped my eyes towards him instantly but he kept his eyes glued to his phone.
"Our first eting wasn’t pleasant"
"How not pleasant?"
He smirked, darting his eyes to
and nudging his head to Emma. "Notice a mark on her neck?"
I froze. There was a ti I noticed sothing about it, but Emma was uncomfortable talking about it so I let it slide, I assud it was a birthmark.
"You did that to her?" I said with venom laced in my tone.
"Like I said, not a pleasant eting... but after that encounter, it was when I knew"
"Knew what?"
"We will get to that soon" he looked over to Emma. "You still haven’t told
who killed her"
I looked out the window watching the light skies, it was already morning.
"It doesn’t matter"
None of it does... the only thing that mattered was Emma and nothing else.
"Hmm... judging from how deep, the fangs of a beast did it"
I flinched.
"And from the sll must be an Alpha’’ he adds before ticking his tongue and shoving his phone in his jacket pocket. "Either I’m too late or right on ti" he fixed his sleeves. "Tell
Grayson what do you know about the Zalatoris’’
I didn’t say anything.
"Nothing I see... but you knew we made a deal with Elias Devereaux, the vampire attack on Juneau at the school, how I t your sister"
"I never knew Vampires would stoop so low to collide with werelions, You guys are mortal enemies," I said.
"Yes we are but the deal was very convincing... he knew when to strike when we needed it the most so I’m curious... What did Elias get out of it?"
"Ruining his son’s life"
"Hmm... not much of a gain is there"
"No" I faced him. "He just created sothing worse"
He looked intrigued now. "And what is that?"
"Your kind greatest threat... a Dark Alpha"
