The sky turned unnaturally dark.
Wind roared like something alive…
and the castle gates trembled under an unseen force.
Outside—
Figures emerged from the mist.
Tall. Cloaked. Eyes glowing with hunger.
Not ordinary vampires.
These were hunters.
Inside the castle—
Arvian stepped forward, his presence shifting completely.
Cold… deadly… unstoppable.
👑 The true Vampire King had awakened.
"Stay inside," his voice echoed through the halls.
But Meera could still feel it—
That danger.
That pull.
💔 Thump… thump… thump…
Upstairs—
Ayaan held her hand tightly.
"They're not here for him…" he whispered.
Meera's breath caught.
"Then… who?"
Before Ayaan could answer—
💥 BOOM!
The main doors shattered open.
Downstairs—
The hunters entered.
One of them stepped forward, a smirk on his face.
"Well… well… King Arvian," he said mockingly.
"Still hiding in the dark?"
Arvian's eyes glowed brighter.
"You shouldn't have come."
The hunter laughed.
"Oh, we had to."
His gaze shifted… upward.
"To take what belongs to us."
At that moment—
Meera felt a chill run down her spine.
Before she could react—
⚡ A shadow appeared behind her.
A cold hand grabbed her arm.
"Found you."
Meera screamed—
"Arvian!"
Downstairs—
Arvian froze.
That voice—
That fear—
In an instant—
He disappeared.
Upstairs—
The hunter tightened his grip on Meera.
"You don't even know what you are, do you?" he whispered.
Meera struggled.
"Let me go!"
Suddenly—
⚡ The room exploded with power.
Arvian appeared.
His eyes burning with rage.
"Touch her again…"
His voice was no longer calm.
It was terrifying.
"…and I will end you."
The hunter smirked.
"Try."
In a flash—
🩸 Battle erupted.
Arvian moved faster than the eye could see.
Shadows obeyed him.
Darkness bent around him.
Within seconds—
The hunter was thrown across the room.
Crashing into the wall.
Meera watched in shock.
This wasn't just a man.
This was a monster.
A king.
A nightmare.
But then—
More hunters appeared.
Surrounding them.
The leader stepped forward again.
"Enough games," he said.
Then he pointed directly at Meera.
🔥 "Take her."
TWIST🔥
The truth begins to unfold—
They didn't come to kill Arvian…
They came for Meera.
