Chapter 5 It's a trap

A woman dressed in black sat on a chair in a small room, she seemed bothered as she kept sighing repeatedly.

Lady Luna," Carlos, a fearsome and strong werewolf entered the room.

We have no choice but to attend the auction, we must get the item no matter the consequences,"

What type of item is it? " Carlos curiously asked.

It's a book, it's called the white book, the cover is made of rare white flowers, it was last opened centuries ago and was kept hidden because of the great amount of power it holds," Luna stared at Carlos.

If we get the book, we could defeat the vampires entirely and finally be free and not hide in shadows, then let's get the book, Carlos said with interest.

Lady Luna, she's here," a werewolf entered the room informing Luna.

Took her long enough," Luna whispered.

Let her in," Luna told the werewolf.

Good day to you lady Luna," the person bowed.

What's good about today? hope you brought useful information," Luna picked up her nails as she stared at the person bowing before her.

Yes lady Luna, lord Alexander will be attending the auction tomorrow he plans on getting the item," the person told Luna still bowing with raised head *So, he knows about it too, interesting*

Luna thought and smirked.

Is he going with the slayers? " Luna questioned.

Yes lady Luna, the slayers are going on a mission to get the item,"

Luna chuckled lightly, interesting,".

Any other information," Luna stood up walking towards the person.

No lady Luna, that's all for now,"

That's fine, you can go, don't hesitate to let me know if there is something else," Luna looked at the person with her side eye before walking back to her seat.

Yes lady Luna," the person bowed again before walking out.

Are you certain we can trust her?" Carlos asked.

She's useless anyway, her only use is to bring me useful information," Luna smiled.

What if she gets caught,"

If she gets caught......, It's not my business, she's a vampire anyway, just a young confused vampire," Luna laughed loudly.

Carlos smiled.

Leona stands at the entrance of a mysterious and eerie place, the home of the renowned witch.

Leona's keen senses detect movement, and he swiftly sidesteps as the floor beneath him gives way, revealing a deep, spiked pit. he gracefully leaps over it, landing with cat-like agility on the other side, unharmed. His vampire reflexes aid him every step of the way.

Leona kept walking till he got to a big door, he heaved a sigh of relief before pushing the door.

He quickly ducked the spearheading his way, suddenly a big ball of snow rolled towards him and turned into a giant snowman with red eyes, they spar for a while till Leona defeated it.

Sh*t, these why I hate coming here?

He groaned as he stared at the bridge with a tiny rope to cross on.

He gathered up his courage and began to walk gently holding onto the sidelines, he almost slipped numerous times but he quickly regained his stamina.

Phew, that was close, he exclaimed as he finally crossed the bridge.

He pushed a small door and went inside, as the hallway narrowed, revealing a spiked wall closing in on him from both sides. Not one to be easily intimidated, Leona gathers his strength and forcefully pushes against the walls with his supernatural might. The spikes halt just inches from him, unable to penetrate his impenetrable skin.

Finally, with the traps overcome, Leona reaches the end of the hallway. He stands before a massive, intricately carved door, the entrance to Valentina's lair. He takes a deep breath, steadying himself, as he raises a hand to knock.

The door creaks open slowly, and Leona steps inside, his eyes adjusting to the dimly lit interior.

Leona suddenly stood still unable to move.

Aurora walked briskly into the woods, she saw Juan already waiting for her.

She ran to him, hugging him from behind and placing her head on his shoulder.

Sorry, I took so long," she whispered.

Juan smiled and turned back to stare at her.

It wasn't easy getting permission from them, you know how strict they are with training," Aurora squeezed her nose going to sit beside him on the log of wood.

You look more cute whenever you do that," Juan tapped her nose.

What is that, She squeezed her nose again touching it a little.

These", Juan chuckled pointing at her squeezed nose.

Aurora laughed hard realizing what he meant.

Oh please," she chuckled.

Are you going on a mission, your training seems more often that we hardly get to see Juan's see JuaJJuaJuansuddenlyned serious.

Are you worried?...... You don't need to, am a skilled slayer you know," Aurora said smiling.

I don't want you getting hurt," Juan stared at her worriedly.

Of course, I will be fine," Aurora hit him playfully.

Wait!, Juan suddenly said moving closer to her.

What is it?, Aurora blinked her eyes staying still.

Juan suddenly pulled closer and slammed his lips on hers.

He stopped kissing her and stared at her for a while smiling.

Have told you to stop doing that," Aurora screamed.

What??, Juan chuckled and kissed her again before running off.

You are doing it again, I hate you! , Aurora screamed again chasing after him.

I love you! Juan chuckled as they both laughed running around the wood.

The blade was on Leona's neck, it was no ordinary blade and it could slay a vampire with just a slice, Leona could feel his skin burning gradually.

Next time you knock before entering," Valentina whispered before withdrawing her blade, the blade was bath in hot poison capable of killing a vampire.

The nice blade you got there," Leona chuckled dryly looking around the room filled with all sorts of potions and witches' stuff.

It took a while but the scar on Leona's neck healed.

I see you haven't changed quite a bit, still putting traps in your lair," Leona nodded taking a portion.

Drop that!!!, just a breath from it and you will forever lose your manhood," Valentina said as she kept mixing the portion she was making.

Leona quickly dropped it and cleared his throat as he walked towards Valentina.

The Lord has summoned me again??," Valentina said without sparing a glance at Leona as she kept on with her potion.

Yes, and this time...., Leona paused a bit.

I think it's quite serious," he said with a serious tone and Valentina turned to look at him.

***

I think it's brenewedewew you won't want to raise suspicions," Juan turned to look at Aurora who was on his back.

I know," Aurora pouted.

I wish I could just stay like this forever," Aurora whined and closed her eyes tightening her hold on Juan.

I understand Aurora....., He said dropping her from his back and turning to face her.

I hope someday the werewolves will be able to make peace," he cupped her cheek.

Do you think that's possible," Aurora stared at him.

I know it's possible," he hugged her tightly.

I could do anything to always be with you," he whispered.

I love you JJ, Aurora said as she fondly called him.

Love you too," he said and they were both lost in a long-term kiss for a while.

* When will you get intimate with our mate*

* Why don't you let her know she's our mate*

Dylan, Juan's wolf kept blabbering in his head, Juan is a werewolf but unlike another werewolf, he resolves to peace rather than conflict.

* Just shut up*

Juan said to his wolf as he kept kissing and fondling Aurora's br*ast, he was almost taking off her clothes when Aurora stopped him.

Aurora bent her head downwards and bit her lips.

Am sorry," she whispered.

Juan only stared at her, he understood that she didn't seem ready, although she loved him, perhaps she was just scared.

It's fine," Juan smiled.

I have to go now, bye! She waved at him and in a swift she was gone.

* Why do you think she's scared*

Dylan asked.

* I also don't know why, do you think she's scared of me?*

Juan asked as he stared at where Aurora and just left.

* You just have to make our mate trust you*

Dylan said.

Juan sighed and left the woods.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting shadows across the town, Karla, and Esteban gathered in a dimly lit room, their faces illuminated by the glow of computer screens. The room hummed with anticipation as they prepared for their mission to get a highly valuable item that was up for auction at a museum.

They were able to get rid of the men in the computer room and take over.

Karla, with her nimble fingers and vast knowledge of the digital world, hacked into the museum security system, disabling surveillance cameras and creating a virtual blind spot. She was to ensure their movements remained hidden and undetected.

Disguised as employees, Vincent, Rita, Aurora, and Isabella seamlessly blended into the buzzing crowd at the museum.

VAMPIRE REALM

Sophie smiled broadly staring at her badge, which indicated her affiliation with the Order of the Silver Moon.

She just finished her training for the day and was heading to her room, Leona asked Ziphora to show her to her new room in the Slayer quarters, since she was now a Slayer.

She removed her necklace from her neck and opened the locket, little tears dropped from her eyes but she quickly wiped them off, she stared at her mom and dad and sighed before gently closing the locket and putting on the necklace.

I will become stronger," she said with determination and kept on walking towards the slayer quarters.

Sophie!......,

Sophie heard creepy whispers from a distance.

She turned around but didn't see anyone, she was quite aware that the slayers were on a mission.

She shrugged the thought off, concluding that she misheard.

She walked further, and she heard her name again but this time it was louder.

She became frightened and looked back when she turned front she met herself in front of a black door surrounded by short trees, the door suddenly creaked open and she flinched.

She begins to hear footsteps coming closer to her at her back.

She felt a tap and she screamed.

***

Karla and Esteban are computer experts, who assist the slayers In their various missions.

Karla communicated with Aurora and Vincent through an encrypted earpiece.

Directing them to the room where the item was kept.

After a few minutes, Karla stood looking at the screen before her, she saw something unusual and looked closely.

It's a......trap," Karla said shockingly.

A trap?, What do you mean," Esteban, hurriedly looked at where Karla was staring on the screen.

What the f*ck!!," he exclaimed looking at the view from the computer.

Inform lord Alexander quickly," he said to Karla and he hurriedly put on his earpiece connecting with Victor.

Get out of there now!!, He screamed.

I can't hear him clearly, "Victor complained.

Is something wrong? " Rita asked.

I think Esteban is trying to say something, but the signal seems foggy,"

Sh*t, Esteban cussed as he watched Aurora, Rita, Victor, and Ismove move towards the room.

Not there," he frustratedly whispered.

Isabella typed a code, and the door to the to opened.

Awesome, Karla is a real genius," she exclaimed chuckling as the door opened.

COMPUTER ROOM

Esteban used a general microphone and spoke through it.

Everyone out, it's a trap!"

Do you hear that? " Rita paused.

What's that?" Isabella pointed at a figure standing in the shadows.

Ohh no, werewolves," Victor said and the door behind them suddenly began to close.
