Chapter 237 - Two Hundred And Thirty-seven: Meet With Sabrina

Chapter 237 - Two Hundred And Thirty-seven: Meet With Sabrina

Dan was on tenterhooks throughout the night. He contemplated Lia's idea of going to Sabrina and speak one on one with her. But he couldn't, he was afraid.

What more could she say, he had caught her red-handedly cheating on him. If he had truly meant something to her, she would have tried calling him, pleading for forgiveness.

But then, she did nothing. It was enough to prove to him that this was a game to her. Sabrina was the second woman he had ever loved and to crown it all, she was a witch.

He knew the many sacrifices he had made on her behalf and the risk he had taken to protect her. Just like it was hard to find a werewolf and vampire couple, it was the same with witches too.

Vampires unlike other creatures were thoroughly disliked because of their feeding nature. Though mandurugas made the top of the hate list but those creatures were few hence vampires taking the top spot.

Unknown to Sabrina, Dan had taken care of every witch who was a threat to them because of their relationship. So why would she do this to him now?

Thankfully, Dan had no time to wallow in heartbreak since Asher kept him busy with his petty errands last night. Their clan leader was very determined to chase everyone off the clan house with his libidinous activity with his mate.

Asher's room was soundproofed but not as much as the underground prison moreover, they were vampires with enhanced sensory organs so every one of their moans and dirty talks infiltrated his ears.

Fine, once the vampire leaves for work the next week, he would skip that pathetic school and create a quiet, more tranquil environment by increasing the soundproofing of Asher's existing walls.

However, Dan couldn't help but feel like something was unusual about Asher since he returned. Apart from giving him orders, their leader seems to be distancing himself from him.

Normally, when Dan returns from such a journey, both vampires would catch on to events that happened during his leave while he fills Asher on the latest information he got from his journey but this time, none of that happened; Asher dismissed him as soon as possible.

Moreover, Dan was a telepath who could never assess the mind of Asher unless he let him or get distracted yet yesterday, he glimpsed snippets that revolved around Lia.

It was obvious that his leader had finally lost it, he was obsessed with his mate and that would bring a problem between him and Daniel pretty soon.

Still yet, something was missing. When he had gotten that little information, he tried to pry into Asher's mind for more when he resisted him, albeit with struggle.

"Don't you dare read my mind, ever again!" Asher had warned him furiously.

"What did Raphael do to you during the attack?" He recollected having said while blocking Asher's path, "You're not told me what happened to you during Raphael's attack when it's obvious that you're weakened!" He had yelled at him.

"It's none of your business. Dan, I'm fine. All you should worry about is keeping the girl safe"

"This was the same thing you said that almost got you killed during my absence" Dan retorted," For how long would you neglect -"

"You're dismissed" Asher had ignored the matter.

"Dan, we've run out of blood bags" She-Zukai who came into the living room roused him from his thoughts.

"How is that possible?" Dan was bewildered.

The council had begun the long-debated monthly supply of blood to every vampire to support their vegetarian lifestyle- living on animal blood- and to curb the attack on humans for food.

Even if vampires fed on animal blood for eternity, the thirst for human blood was innate and one-day, that unnatural trend would be broken and all hell would let loose.

A vampire who has forgotten the taste of human blood would likely binge drink or binge feed on a human once he or she has a taste. So the council was tactically using that approach to avoid such a deadly situation.

All the blood bags were missing? He was sure that the fridge had been stocked, how had it gone down so soon?

Dan didn't believe it until he confirmed it with his own eyes, just three bags were remaining.

"Who was the last to feed today aside from you?" He questioned the female vampire.

"Don't know?" She shrugged," But Gideon has been with me throughout last night so you should ask Asher" She-Zukai referred.

"Why would Asher need up to thirty blood bags to feed as if he was starved or infected with werewolf venom…." Dan trailed off when it clicked in his head.

Lia must have injured Asher.

Dan's blood boiled, he would kill that little hybrid - mate or not- if anything happens to their leader, Asher.

Dan marched upstairs, walking into Asher's room but there was no sign of Asher nor his mate Lia.

He knew the vampire well, Asher must be hiding, so he doesn't find out and hassle his mate.

That irritated him the more, that stupid clan leader. He was too kind-hearted for his own good.

Dan was about to leave when he caught something out of the corners of his eyes. There was an incense ashtray on Asher's vanity table. He frowned, when did Asher start lighting incenses?

He lifted the tray to his nose and took a whiff, confirming that it had no smell. He took a pinch into his mouth, it was tasteless just like powder.

Dan wouldn't have bothered himself with this but he couldn't help but feel that something was off with Asher's character recently.

Also, judging from the ashes, it was obvious that this incense was used last night. Why would Asher light this incense with his mate around? Was his motive? What's the purpose of this incense?

So he quickly tore off a sheet of paper from the magazine on the table and poured the ashes in it, folded it, and put it in the pocket of his pants; Sabrina should know something about that.

Once out of the room, he proceeded to search the underground cells and labs since there was a high chance Asher was draining the venom out of him down there.

But Dan was disappointed, no one had come in there at all. He was just pondering on where to search next when his phone rang.

Dan's eyes darkened, the girl had the guts to call him after injuring Asher? Fine, he would pretend to be ignorant of what was going on.

"What is it now, Lia? Haven't you had a handful with your mate last night?"

But he never premeditated the voice that answered.

"It is not Lia but her brother, Trevor. We need to talk" said the male voice.

Dan stared at the number to confirm it was really the girl's. Of course, he knew Trevor but both were not from the same class neither was he protecting him, hence had little to talk about.

"What do you want?" Dan asked, irked.

"We need to meet face to face" Trevor requested.

"I don't have time. So say what you have to say and get it over with " Dan insisted. He still had to visit Sabrina and figure out what the hell that incense was used for.

"It's about Asher"

Dan stilled," What about Asher?"

"He has my sister"

"Look here you dumbhead, Asher and your sister are mates and he would always - "

"You don't understand, he has against her will. I think my sister is in danger"

Dan snorted, "That's quite funny because I think Asher is the one in danger from your sister"

"Listen here you douche, I have all the evidence here. So you could either come over to my place or keep on arguing, your choice"

"Fine" Dan gave in. He took one last look around and teleported to the girl's house.

"Christ Jesus!" Shrieked the girl's brother who had not expected his abrupt arrival.

"You said you had evidence" Dan went straight to the point, he still had to check on Sabrina.

"My sister's room.." Trevor looked around cautiously, checking out for his mother.

"Christ, God, Jesus! Dude, give me a warning before you do things like this!" Trevor freaked out, hand on his chest.

He was about to tiptoe into his sister's room with the vampire by his side when he teleported both automatically in a twinkle of an eye.

"Tell me what happened," Dan ignored him, taking in the appearance of the room and a whiff of Asher's scent, he had indeed come here.

Trevor began to narrate everything to the very end till he was out of breath.

"He said he's not going to hurt her but I can't help but get worried for her," Trevor said.

"Your sister is Asher's mate, no matter what she does, he would never hurt her" Dan assured him of that.

But to Dan, he had just proven that something was going on and it had to do with Raphael. That foxy vampire must have done something bad to Asher's body, hence his weird behavior.

He must meet with Sabrina at once and figure out what was wrong with their leader and this substance.
