The Ghost Hunters and The Familiar Strangers

"What do you mean?". Evan asked trying to process everything he just heard. Which two claimed people is he talking about? The only person he knew claimed to be Emerald so how come there is another one? "Adam was claimed". Jim told them as Evan almost choked on his saliva.

"What?".

"We just found out today. Remember the fight with those people at the warehouse..". Jim asked waiting for a response from Evan. Evan nodded. "... the lady was the one who claimed him".

"But that's a long time... how come he kept it from us?". Evan asked. Jim shrugged as he left them.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Evan couldn't believe his ears. How come he didn't notice it? No, he did notice it but he didn't pay attention to it.

"I've failed". He said as he sat on the bed next to him.

"Why would you say that?". Laura asked.

"I wasn't concentrating and.... my mind was somewhere and this had to happen". He said as he put his hand on his face.

Laura bent down on her knees as she touched his lap. "You haven't failed. Maybe you made a mistake by not being there for the team but I won't define that as a failure". She said as she pulled his hand away from his face. "You helped me..... not just me but my whole family, a failure wouldn't do that".

"What if..." She places her index finger on his lips shushing him.

"What if nothing. Emerald is strong and she would fight this. Adam on the other hand..". She pauses as she looks at the guy who is sound asleep before looking back at him. "... has something to live for which is their love and you've made this possible. You should appreciate yourself more instead of downgrading yourself and calling yourself negative names because of a situation such as this".

Evan pulled Laura close and hugged her. All of a sudden, Laura started feeling so uncomfortable. Her ears were twitching, her eyes were burning, and it was like she wasn't in charge of her body. She didn't understand why she could hear different voices and her eyes were going into trance where she could see Emerald and where she was laid.

Shutting her eyes and covering her ears, Laura tried to suppress the pain but she couldn't. Evan already knew what was happening. "Laura.. Laura... Laura... Look at Me". He called but her eyes were closed because she was scared she would be seeing inside his brain. Her breathing was fast as she clung to his shirt. Evan quickly carried and took her to another room. Everyone that saw him quickly followed him Reed was the one in front.

"What happened". He asked as Evan placed Laura on the bed. Her eyes were slowly shutting and her heart was beating faster than normal.

"It's the vampire blood.... it's flowing through her veins". Phoebe explained.

"Does she know?". Chloe asked Evan but he was too scared to say anything. "Did you tell her?". He asked again.

Evan moved to the wall as he punched the wall several times to the point they started bleeding. "I couldn't tell her... I..."

"Damn it, Evan.... what the hell were you thinking?". Sophia asked.

"She's already mad at us for keeping our identity secret and now this? do you know how angry she's going to be?. I don't even want to start imagining". Chloe said pacing the room.

Evan looked at Laura, the soon-to-be vampire, good thing she is unconscious. How would he start explaining to her? how would she even take it? would she give up on what they both have?. He thought as he bit his lips hard.

Today just seems to be a bad day for everyone. They haven't dealt with the problem at hand and now another just has been added to the equation. How would they do it? what is Evan going to do?. He has been enjoying her company and their get-back-together as friends that he forgot everything about Laura turning into a vampire someday. He thought it was a situation he could avoid but unfortunately, the situation is staring him right in the face and there's no running away. He's got to face it but How?

****Massachusetts****

Silver moved to Massachusetts as his boss directed. Living life here in Massachusetts was hard because the people he considered family were dead and he didn't know how to react to it.

He was well paid so he got an apartment and he made sure he had turned as many people as he can into vampires. He was ready for his revenge all he needed right now was a call from the boss and he would come over there immediately with his army.

"Why do you look so dull?". A girl named Chelsea asked. She was one among the hundredth people he had turned.

"I can't wait to get my revenge... I can't wait to kill those people that killed my family. I just want to hold them in my hand and strangle them to death". He took the bottle of vodka and smashed it on the wall.

Chelsea patted his back. "I'm sure you'll have your revenge. We'll help make that happen". Chelsea gave a reassuring smile.

Just as Chelsea was about to get him a drink, Silver's phone rang. He composed himself and picked the call, trying to hide his emotions.

"Hello, boss".

After the long conversation, Silver's face lit up. "Yes, boss. As soon as possible". He hung up.

"Is that the boss?". He nodded. "what did she say?". She asked.

"We'll be moving back home. She said the time for the revenge is near so she needs us around". "Yay!!". Chelsea shouted as she hugged him. "I'll gather everyone". Immediately she said that she left. "You all just wait!!".

**********

Martina and Jones were talking, someone barged into the house scaring the shit out of them.

Ashley rushed downstairs trying to see what was going on. "Are we being robbed?". She asked as she saw her parents and another lady she has never seen before. "Um... who are you?". she asked the woman. The woman smiled. "Why don't you ask your father?". she folded her arms. Martina and Ashley's attention turned to Jones.

Jones was speechless and stunned at the same time. Why would she even be here?

"Should I tell them??". She asked, still folding her arms.

"Jones, who the hell is she?!". Martina was running out of patience that she didn't know when she yelled.

"Martina meet Catherine, my ex-wife". Martina turned to face the woman.

"Hi". Catherine greeted but was ignored.

"And why is your ex-wife here?". She asked.

"Um.... I'm here to take my rightful place".

"Which is?".

Catherine walked up to Martina and showed her the claimed bite Jones gave to her the night he spent at her place. "If you know what your husband is.... then you should know what this mark right here means". Martina knew alright. She turned to her husband expecting some answer but Jones didn't know what to say.

"I was drunk..... I had no idea we....".

Martina summoned courage as she turned to face Catherine. "So what?". She asked. "What if he claimed you?. Is that supposed to mean anything?".

"Yes. It means we are meant to be together. Very soon, I'll be a vampire and then I would desperately need him as much as he will need me. I just thought I'd let you know just in case you start seeing some changes". She moved closer to Jones. "See you soon". She kissed him on his lips. "And when next I come, I'll make sure to bring something interesting". She turned to leave as Ashley quickly shut the door.

"Mart....". Before he could say her name, Martina walked out on him. She has had enough.... she didn't know how else to react to this.

"I will go talk to her". Ashley assured her dad as she left to meet her mom.
