?Her hands gestured at the butler to come closer. Then, she whispered in his ears, "Send the message that I want to see Angel right now."
Butler nodded and left the chamber as quickly he received the order. In no time, he was sent and Angel visited Kay's palace. She walked swiftly to the chamber and waited while she was permitted to enter. Although she loved to work in her conditions, Mary always had some challenging tasks for her, otherwise she wouldn't have called her.
"I heard you wanted me, your highness." Angel spoke as the token of her arrival.
"Yes, I do. There is something that only you can do and I trust you with it." Mary stated while looking at her with her pensive gaze. Angel was perplexed about what Mary wanted from her.
"What's the job?" She came right at the point.
"Well, I hope you are aware of the fact that Reaves had kidnapped Abby, daughter of Dracula." Mary spilled the beans.
Angel was utterly shocked, "Did he?"
"Yes! And so far, I know he is hiding in the woods. Reaves is a clever warrior. He knows how to conceal his scent and stay hidden while still being present around you. I want you to take this information to the police officer, Tom." Mary explained the joc to Angel.
"But what will it actually do?" Angel asked with confusion.
"You have to help Tom in this case." Mary came to the point. Angel smirked as she knew where the arrow was heading.
"Consider the job is done." Angel winked at Mary before leaving the chamber and heading towards the town to meet Tom.
Shortly, she arrived in the town and stood in front of the police station. At first, she was a bit in a haze but since Mary appointed her the job, there was no backing out. Tom wasn't the man who could get filled easily, so working along with him was like living under water with alligators. Angel had to be patient and careful.
She entered the police station and demanded to see officer Tom. The junior cop went inside to send the message. Soon, Tom came out of the room and saw Angel waiting for him. He narrowed his gaze at her because a woman like Angel in the police station wasn't good.
"How can I help you, young lady?" He asked her in a polite tone.
"There you are. You made me wait a little longer than I expected." Angel complained to him.
"I apologize for the waiting but we, as a cop, had other important things to handle. So, what brings you here, Angel?" He asked quickly.
"Mary sent me to inform you about the act your friend and the chief of the town had pulled." Angel love to sprinkle spices on the top.
Tom scrunched his brow and looked at her with a blank gaze, "What did he do?"
"He had kidnapped a girl, I heard she is Dracula's child and kept her hostage in the dense wood." Angel revealed the news to Tom.
As it was shocking for Tom to consume the news, he was disappointed that Reaves went far beyond his expectations. Immediately, he slammed his fist in the wall, taking Angel out of blue. She got worried if she went out of the line.
"How dare he?" Tom gritted his teeth and rubbed his palms over his face. As a father, he understood Reaves' concerns for his family but it was way too dangerous to abduct the enemy's daughter and play the card. Not only did he intentionally put his life on stake, without him his family would suffer the consequences.
"Well, what can I say now? Mary wanted me to help you find him." Angel revealed the reason she visited him. Tom nodded his head but asked her to wait as it was too much at the moment. He had to consume the news and came up with a plan to save Reaves.
Reaves' action would endanger the town people as well. He knew how powerful Dracula had become and if something happened to his daughter. Apart from Reaves and his family, he would target the entire town and innocent people would die. This fact gave him anxiety and goosebumps. It was clear he had to stop Reaves but how. His gaze went to Angel and he thought of using the girl's abilities to find him.
Tom went inside the room and called a team of warriors in search of Reaves. The permission was granted and they left the police station quickly.
"Angel, are you sure they are hiding in the woods? It is dangerous to be there after sunset." Tom showed his concern.
"As far as I know, my sources never lie. Apart from that, I will trace his scent to find him." Angel gave Tom a surety she knew about his whereabouts but they had to trace him in the woods.
"Reaves is a master in sorcery, he knows how to hide traces and conceal his scent. Do you think of any other plans to work on it?" Tom wanted to know how Angel would help him in the case.
"My nose is extraordinary." She chuckled under her breath, "I can find him."
After penetrating the woods into the deeper parts, Angel got a trail of Reaves' scent. "I think I found him."
Tom was astonished by her talent but it was still too early to jump to conclusions. What if she kept them running in the woods for no reason and something happened to Reaves' family behind his hand.
"Follow me." She guided the warriors in a direction. Tom had to follow her as well because his strategy won't work here.
After walking almost a mile, Angel halted and the other warriors stopped as well. "I can sense his presence here. We have to be careful."
But Tom jumped out and challenged Reaves to show up. "Come out, Reaves. I know you are here. Stop playing these shitty games of yours."
Tom's Nasty remarks enraged Reaves, and he showed himself, just exactly what he knew.
"Get away, Tom! This had nothing to do with your concern." Reaves' sound appeared like a deafening roar.
"I thought we are friends and we will work on this together." Tom knew he had to convince Reaves to stop his madness for the sake of the townspeople.
"This is my battle with Dracula and I have to fight for my family. Leave Tom, just leave. Let me handle things my way." Reaves had his mind glued on Dracula and he wasn't thinking straight at the moment.
"I won't leave you or back out. I promised to help you. Please, understand that what you are doing won't help you but put your family's life in danger. Think about little Tiffany, you have abducted Dracula's child who has nothing to do with her grandpa's dirty business." Tom made remarks about him doing exactly what Dracula wanted to do and it won't lead him anywhere.
"Oh, shut it! I know what I am doing at the moment. I want him to realize that this battle is ours, not to include our family in it."
