Chapter 164

“I’m going to search the house,” William said.

“Be careful. There are two vampyres here, and you don’t want to expose them to sunlight.”

He gave a curt nod and strode off toward the rear of the little bungalow.

Mina still vibrated with anxiety. Ekaterina put her down and rubbed her ears. “Where is your master, little one?”

She whined and seized the leg of Ekaterina’s jeans, tugging toward the door.

“He’s not here, is he?”

Mina pulled harder, and Ekaterina picked her up again.

“Soon, little mistress. We have to be certain we don’t go off half-cocked.”

“He’s not here, Kat. Raymond and Raul are in the bedroom, and their sleep is…restless.”
