Five black vans with no licence plates sped along an unnamed road towards the northern part of the country.
Each van was carrying precious cargo for the blood lords and the vampires driving the vehicles had happy grins on their faces.
Just from this shipment alone they would be able to increase their standing in high society as well as make a decent amount of profit.
Kidnapping humans was against the treaty signed two hundred years ago but unless they were caught by the hunter's organisation then it was merely a useless piece of paper.
Hundreds if not thousands of humans went missing every single day.
What were a few more names to add to the endless list?
Inside the vans one could hear the sounds of its occupants trying to reason with their captors to let them go free.
"Please…I'll give you anything just let me go…"
"Mommy… I'm… I'm scared…"
"We're all going to die! We're all going to die!"
Two young teenage girls had been placed at the back of the van and they both had identical appearances.
Sharp angular facial features, cute button noses and enchantingly pale skin. Their eyes were partially closed but one could glimpse a piercing green colour beneath their eyelids.
They both possessed long flowing dark wavy hair that fell below their shoulders.
Identical twins were a rarity and selling both as a set was quite the attractive prospect for the vampire driving the vehicle.
Eventually the teenage girl on the right stirred and the first noises that she heard were the pleads and desperate cries for help.
Mary groggily opened her eyes and felt a massive headache pounding nonstop in her head. She let out a painful groan as she felt as though she had just been run over by a truck.
The aftereffects of unknowingly eating a few sedatives that her father had slipped into her meal had caused her body to become slow and hard to move.
She tried to shift her body around but hissed in pain as she felt something wrapped tightly around her arms and legs.
Mary looked down and saw that her arms and ankles had been bound by a thin layer of rope that had been securely tied.
This mission world…
Mission world?
Mary frowned as a few memories entered her mind as her personality assimilated fully with that of her original host.
Fuck… this was not good.
She had entered the host's body during the kidnapping, and it was already too late.
She could feel the drugs still present in her system and there was a sense of weakness in her body.
Fighting would be impossible even if her enemy was a normal human male and never mind the fact that he was an enhanced supernatural creature.
She glanced around the interior of the van and carefully observed the other occupants trapped inside the van.
A middle-aged woman wearing simple rags who clutched her young son against her chest, an elderly man who rocked gently back and forth as well as a few others.
Each had an expression of despair or terror on their faces.
Mary leaned against her sister who was still unconscious. There was not much time to implement any grand schemes or plans.
For now, her best bet would be to imitate what the original Mary had done in this situation and hope that she could turn things around.
But not yet.
Mary waited patiently even though every instinct in her body wanted her to try to escape and flee from this van as soon as possible.
It was an instinctive fear since she was trapped in a limited space along with a predator.
This world was remarkably similar to Sui Li's own world except humanity was not the only intelligent species that ruled the planet.
Vampires… creatures of the night with enhanced strength, senses and an insatiable urge for blood that fueled their immortality.
However, they all had two fatal weakness.
The first was sunlight and the second was the fact that lesser vampires got easily overwhelmed by the smell of blood.
If she attempted to communicate to her sister now, then they would be easily caught but she only needed to wait for a few more minutes…
Mary rubbed her fingers nervously as she watched a young man in his twenties in the corner of the van shift around and somehow reach into his pocket.
A blade gleamed between his fingers and slowly but surely, he began to cut the rope that was binding his hands.
"Stop cutting the rope or I'll kill you…" a cold voice came from the driver's seat. The young man was startled, and the knife slipped out of his grasp.
He hissed in pain as the blade nicked against the side of his leg and thin wound opened up. Blood slowly dripped down his leg and the air seemed to freeze.
Mary felt a rush of guilt and shame as she watched the vampire in the driver's seat dig his fingernails into the underside of his palms in order to control his bloodlust.
He would not succeed.
She knew that the young man was going to die and did not warn or stop him. Mary gritted her teeth and pushed down the feelings of guilt.
This was a matter of survival and a harsh but necessary method in order to save her sister.
The original Mary had entrusted her body on the condition that her sister was rescued, and Mary intended to fulfil her request.
The vampire driving the van was preoccupied with containing his bloodlust, so he didn't hear the commotion happening in the back of the vehicle.
Mary nudged her sister violently until her eyes slowly opened.
"Mary? What the hell? Why are you waking me up so early?" Lily whispered sleepily as she opened her eyes and stared at her twin.
"Wait… what?"
Lily looked around the vehicle in confusion and saw a group of people tied up with thin pieces of rope.
She glanced at her body and saw that her hands and ankles were also tied up as well. Mary could see panic begin to set in as her younger sister could not understand what was happening.
"Lily… Lily… listen to me…" Mary whispered seriously as she propped up her head with great difficulty and stared into her sister's eyes.
"Dad… he sold us to traffickers… we are currently driving towards vampire-controlled territory and if we reach then there will be no chance of escape…"
"Dad? No… he wouldn't… he…" Lily hyperventilated as she felt the rope around her hands suddenly get tighter.
"Don't panic… I will get us out…" Mary promised gently as she leaned forward and rested her head against her sister's shoulder.
pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ Feeling the familiar warmth of her twin made Lily's calm down a little bit and she listened to what Mary had to say.
"Okay first we need to…"
