Chapter 286 - Looking for the electric board

"You do know you are not a disappointment. You have a generous heart," said Simon, and he sighed when Melanie didn't respond to his words. "Do not doubt yourself for a moment. Just because people cannot see what you see, doesn't mean you are wrong."

"They hate me. So much that they didn't care if I would be alive after they returned," Melanie's eyes watered, but the tears didn't fall from her eyes. She took a deep breath. "I sometimes don't get why there's so much hate in this world, when so many things can be resolved by talking."

"You should know that humans enjoy jumping into conclusions. It is what they do, and they aren't often open minded. But who knows, maybe your parents knew that I would come to rescue you. Your knight in shining fangs."

For a moment, Melanie smiled, but sadness came to enter her eyes. She knew things would not be the same with her and her parents.

"Don't die on me, Mel," she heard Simon tell her from the other side of the door. "I have someone I would like you to meet. We still have our first date due."

"It's not like I am planning to die," replied Melanie, and then she added, "But the situation right now, my chances of survival looks bleak," she said, noticing the vampire place one foot on the ground.

Conner, who had gone to look for the main electrical switchboard, didn't know where Mr. and Mrs. Davis had placed it. He went to the garage, checking through the walls and then the corner of the floor, but even after five minutes had passed, he wasn't able to find it.

"Where the hell is it?" Did it magically disappear? Conner asked himself, and he then said, "Maybe there is another way to short circuit the place."

He quickly went back to his house and picked up the coin from the drawer. Returning to the Davis' house, he looked for a bulb socket, and when he found it, he picked up the chair, dragging it and placing it below the socket. Getting on the chair, Conner turned around the bulb, and he then placed a coin before placing the bulb back the way it was earlier.

In the basement, Melanie felt her blood pressure go low, and her face turned paler because of the vampire, who had started to walk at the pace of a zombie towards her.

"Simon!" Mel shouted his name. "The vampire is here!"

Melanie's eyes grew wider, and she tried to push her body back when the vampire's hand-stretched forward to get a hold of her.

Simon gritted his teeth, knowing well that even though vampires looked weak, as if they had no energy, the sight of possible blood got their body moving faster.

He considered breaking the door without waiting for Conner, as the human boy hadn't turned off the electricity in the house.

Where Conner stood, he looked for the bulb switch, and after turning on most of the switches, he finally turned on the right one. On the press of the switch, the other lights that were turned on went out, and Conner had successfully short-circuited the entire Davis's house.

Melanie, who was now surrounded by darkness, heard the groan of the vampire, and at the same time, she heard the basement door being opened with a loud thud that fell on the floor. Simon pulled the vampire away from Melanie, tearing his head off before helping Melanie unstrap herself from the chair.

Melanie's heart was beating so loud that she was ready to faint right in the chair with the amount of anxiety she had felt crawling up in her body and mind.

"I am alive…" breathed Melanie with a sigh of relief.historical

"Come let us get you out of here before your parents decide to take a U-turn to come and get you," said Simon, and when he tugged her hand, Melanie stopped him.

"Wait!"

"Don't tell me you want to sit and chat with the other vampires in here. Vampires don't die unless you stake them, sweetheart," explained Simon.

Melanie shook her head in the dark, "Let us take the solutions from here. The ivy solutions that my mother created."

"Ooo, I like it. Let us do that," said Simon, who could still fairly see the things around them unlike Melanie.

They stepped out of the basement while putting the door back to its original position while Conner had pulled up the car in front of their house. Coming outside, Simon, who hadn't been able to see Melanie's face earlier, noticed the bruise formed on one side of her face.

"Did your parents do this to you?" questioned Simon.

"Head hunter," replied Melanie in a tone of indifference as if she felt no pain from it. Simon only stared at her, and she said, "I am fine now. It was just a strike."

"Looks like two," murmured Simon, knowing exactly how a bruise looked on how many strikes.

"We can talk about it later, we need to go see what condition Veteris is going to end up in," said Melanie, getting inside the car.

While the other hunters had already reached near Veteris, they had parked their vehicles near the towns, and had walked all the way through the forest, holding their loaded guns with them. On the other side, Joaquin was not happy with the news his brother had brought him on his return.

"Are you sure that the hunters are working with these Elder vampires?" questioned Joaquin, and Enoch nodded.

"I am one hundred and one percent sure. Frankly I cannot help but doubt this one here," Enoch jerked his head towards Douglas, whose eyes popped wide.
