I banged on the heavy door, my knuckles raw, Lucas's dead weight dragging at my arms. After Evelyn got me away from the crane, I rushed straight to the one person I knew could help Lucas wake up. Even if it had to be Melvin.
The door creaked open, revealing Melvin's disdainful face.
"We're closed... you're-"
"I think Lucas is in danger!" I said frantically, my voice cracking. "I have no proof but I think it has something to do with this guy named Decimus-"
"Why're you fussing over the obvious?" Melvin sneered at me, his eyes raking over me and the unconscious vampire I was practically carrying. "What did you think it'd be easy dealing with someone from the darker side? He put his life on the line. Such a foolish little brother, I even told him to quit."
Huh?
"What the fuck?!"
