Vampire "Untitled" (Vampire "Untitled" Trilogy Book 1) (30 page)

Would the police put two and two together? Would they
consider him a person of interest? Most likely. People had seen Nealla attack
him. The police would want to question him. They would come looking, they would
become suspicious that he had left directly after the killings, they would find
his details from the landlady, they would learn the story from Ildico. Boy
would tell them things. Boy might tell them he was a vampire. They would put
two and two together. He was a vampire, had killed Nealla and Raul then fled.
They would check the flights, immigration, passport control. They were going to
track him and he was going to have to become a running man.

He had time enough to make it to London, but what
then?

Evade. Escape. Transform. Get to London, buy time, get
resourced and create an avenue to disappear.

Ildico.

It was a shame. He really did want to see her again.
He stopped for a moment to ponder how she would react when she discovered he
had killed Nealla and Big Man. How would she see this? What would she think of
him?

He could imagine exactly what she would think, she
would say he was a vampire. She had told him not to go to that place in the
forest as it made men go crazy. At first he hadn’t believed her, all that talk
about the strigoi and superstitious mumbo-jumbo, but look what had happened. He
went, he ended up believing and then...

Paul took a deep breath as he endured a cold and
painful moment of clarity. Reality returned. And this time, it returned with a
fucking vengeance. It was true, it was all true. Vampires exist. He knew
because he had become one. There were dark things he had imagined, and dark
things he had made true.

It was time to go.

Paul used his hands to throw snow over Raul’s body.
The snow was falling heavier and heavier and the evidence would be covered soon
enough, but still, there was no sense in taking a risk. Sixty seconds to
conceal the body might mean the difference between evasion and capture. He ran
back up the hill to kick snow across Nealla’s body. Hopefully they would remain
hidden for some time. With luck he would get a few days. Perhaps they wouldn’t
be discovered until the snow thawed in the spring. Perhaps if he was really
lucky their corpses would be mauled and eaten by bears or dogs, destroying any
forensic evidence of knife wounds.

Wishful thinking, but hopeful thinking.

With the bodies largely covered Paul paused to enjoy
the moment. Nealla. What a fucking joke. Amazing to think that only a week or
so ago Nealla had thrown him to the floor and threatened him with a razor. What
a transformation. What an amazing, wonderful and powerful transition it had
been.

There would be time to enjoy it later. Right now, it
was time to go.

Paul set off back down the hill. He walked slowly,
contentedly, hands in pockets and with little to care about. He would return to
London and continue his transition there. He would continue to imagine more
dark things and no doubt make some of them true for his enjoyment.

Nisha.

Oh, yes. Time to go to London. There was a young lady
there who most definitely needed an introduction to the vampire.

“I’m coming for you, Nisha,” He said with a smile.
“There are dark things I can imagine doing with you, Nisha. And there are dark
things I can make true.”

“I’m coming for you, Nisha... I’m coming.”

Vampire “Unseen”

Book Two of the Vampire “Untitled” Trilogy

Two
men are dead, brutally murdered on a Romanian hillside.

The
prime suspect is resourceful, intelligent and completely invisible.

For
Romanian detective Corneliu Latis, the assignment should have been easy. Go to London and liaise with the British authorities, research the suspect’s background, uncover
his friends, his family, the places he would most likely go. He’s supposed to
be just some kid who killed two scrap-metal thieves, so why so much effort with
this manhunt? Why such overwhelming resources to catch one man who could be
anywhere in the world?

Although
the suspect is unseen, he’s been doing strange and interesting things that are
leaving a trail to be followed. Stranger still is the pressure from up high to
find this man.

As
Corneliu methodically unlocks the puzzle he discovers that things are not as
they first seemed. And beyond the mystery of an unseen man, lay a horrifying
dark legacy and secrets that must remain buried at all costs.
