Chapter 833 - Yellow eyes (2/2)
”How many times do you want to ask me that? I'm 100% sure that I saw them turn yellow, but I still don't understand what the big deal is?” Amy asked, getting slightly worried. ”I only told you because something felt weird when I looked at them, if I knew you were going to freak out about it like you're doing right now, perhaps I shouldn't have said anything.”
”... actually you might be right. It may be for the best if both of us just forget about any yellow eyes. On the other hand, if they ever found out we were keeping such a secret, then….” Xander was murmuring to himself.
”Then what!” Amy shouted, now completely annoyed at the fact that Xander refused to be clear about what those yellow eyes meant.
”Then they could execute us.” Xander stared right at her, his face filled with dread at the gruesome end they could meet.
Amy quickly emphasised why Xander had been acting so strangely, yet it also made her just the more curious what exactly Erin was. What had she done that made her so dangerous that just hiding this from the families would warrant a punishment such as death.
”You wouldn't have learnt much about it yet, but I'm sure you've at least heard of their name. There is only one subclass of vampires who have those yellow eyes, a dhampir.”
”A vampire hunter, those that were born to slay all vampires…” Amy mumbled to herself. ”But that can't be. Erin seems completely fine! She isn't going off killing vampires left and right! Just cause she may be different we can't treat her like a different subclass?!”
”I don't make the rules.” Xander insisted. ”But, they are there for a reason.”
”Do you think they know? I mean Quinn or even Erin herself?”
”I'm not sure. Reporting this to Quinn is probably our safest bet. At least that way it will no longer be our problem as we did what we were meant to. It will be up to him to decide what to do with Erin if her being a Dhampir is true.”
Although Amy and Erin weren't as close as she was with Layla, she didn't want for her to come to harm. During their time at the castle she had seen a gentle side to Erin. Someone who always helped others in subtle ways. There weren't many left in the tenth family after the attack, and everyone had grown closer than before afterwards.
With their families killed, it felt like the survivors who lived in the castle had become one big family.
'Why are they so scared of you, Erin?''
In one of the thirteenth castles, where the vampire leaders usually resided, there was one sitting down patiently on their throne. The room was dark with shadows covering their face.
They waited patiently. Soon, creeping out from the shadow a large figure appeared before them. The newcomer had bulging muscles and gray pale skin. His breathing was heavy as he walked onto the red carpet leading up to the throne and entering the light it became clear it was a Bloodsucker.
”You may speak.” The leader allowed.
”I'm here to deliver a message.” The blood sucker did as he had been told. ”You've previously asked why Rowa chose to attack the tenth family's castle. It turns out Rowa discovered that they were keeping someone very important.”
Usually Bloodsuckers were void of speech, but those that were part of Rowa's group had been Bloodsuckers for a long time, and bit by bit they would get their sanity back and could converse just like this one.
”Oh, I thought he just went for the tenth because they were the weakest?” The leader commented, not at all perturbed by the explanation.
The Bloodsucker shook its head.
”Rowa found out that the tenth family are hiding a Dhampir amongst them. He wanted to convince them to join our side.”
