175 Inviting the vampire

"Mel!" Mrs. Davis was quick to hug her daughter. Worry on her face while her arms wrapped around her. "I am so glad to see that you are alright. I thought something happened and you got lost."

"I am okay, mother," Melanie patted her mother's back before she pulled away from her mother's embrace. "Are you alright?" she asked, and her mother nodded. 

"Yeah, we got a few of the vampires, but the rest fled. They shot Conner's father," informed her mother, and Melanie turned to look at Conner, who had just finished wrapping a cloth around his father's leg. "The ambush was so fast, I wonder if they killed the others and hid the body now." 

"We'll have someone else scout this place and check if they find any of our people. If not, we keep looking until we find these vampire's nests," stated Mr. Davis, and everyone around agreed to it. He then looked at Simon with suspicion in his eyes before raising his gun at him.
