章 288: A knight always finds the lord(Bonus chapter)

The first rays of sunlight were just peeking over the horizon when Reggie, Gunther, and Randall mounted their black steeds and departed from the secluded safehouse. Blake and Nana watched them go with worried expressions, as the brothers had been quite vague about their reasons for leaving so suddenly.

"We must visit an old friend," was all Reggie would tell them, his expression grave. "We will return before nightfall."

With that puzzling statement, the three vampire knights started the engine of their vehicle, thundering down the path and out of sight.

The hours slipped by as they drove with speed, emerald trees and craggy hillsides blurring past them. Reggie drove them unerringly to their destination – the imposing peak of Brimstone Ridge. As they approached, they could make out the ramshackle buildings and fenced fields surrounding a large fortified manor house at the mountain's base.
