460 Capture Mission

Jake was dying to yell at them to get their attention, but his common sense prevented him from doing so. His acumen was warning him that this reunion would not go as planned. If nothing else, they looked healthy...

Staying low at the edge of the village, Jake followed Kevin's gaze and saw him heading for a warehouse the Grocers had set up to store their goods. Will had also rebuilt a similar structure in their new Village.

He didn't see anything wrong with it at the time, but he got a nasty hunch when he saw Kevin licking his lips. Sarah and two other vampires with the same red eyes as Carmin were also walking in the same direction.

As Kevin entered the warehouse, he felt Carmin clutch his arm.

"Don't...' She whispered pleadingly.

Jake puzzled over the gleam of pain behind her pupils, but he didn't let empathy cloud his judgment. Jerking his clutched arm, he broke free of her grip.

" Now I'm here, I need to know." He apologized grimly.
