As for the bird that escaped the fight at the end – Alfie said it was the oldest vampire any of them had come across. The most powerful. He’d heard rumours that animal transformations were possible for bloodsuckers, but had never seen any proof. The pack reckons he was the leader, and that he’s probably already setting up a new coven.
There have been no more deaths since the battle. The city is still on high alert, and I’ve never heard it so quiet. It will take some time for people to regain their confidence I suppose, when they have no idea that the culprits have been destroyed. Or most of them anyway.
I wonder where the leader is now. Where Casper is. Could they be together? Or did Casper betray him by leaving and killing one of their own? Casper might be running for his life.
For a time the pack will be in mourning, but they won’t stop keeping an ear out for more suspicious murders. If another vampire coven is being set up they want to get there as early as possible to prevent more killings. That means they will have to move. I’m not sure where that leaves me and Alfie.
Tomorrow night it is the full moon. Alfie says there is no way I can go out and camp with him this time – not when the leader of the coven has escaped. He has become much more worried for my safety after all that has happened, and he has lost so much of his confidence and lightheartedness.
This afternoon we are going to go out for a picnic. The weather is gorgeous, freezing of course, but the sky is a lovely blue, and Alfie has said our picnic will be extra special to make up for the fact I can’t watch him get all wolfy.
This has been such a crazy journey for me; I’ve barely begun to process all that has happened. Vampire attacks, losing a friend, meeting werewolves…. Everything has changed in my life and I don’t know where it will lead me next, and I have so much to think about. For now I’m going to enjoy this lull in activity, spend some quality time with Alfie and see if I can help him feel whole again, and wait to see what happens next….
