Capítulo 10: Abduction
Zoey stood in front of the all too familiar barrier with a small smile, she then walked through it and walked towards the far end of the barrier where there was a wall for her to lean on.
She was contemplating whether she should enter deeply because she was earlier than usual and worried that Xavier wouldn't come now but then she remembered that he had sharpened smell senses so she leaned back and waited, her eyes darting around a few times.
The barrier area was totally empty, she was the only visible person there and if she sensed any danger, she would quickly run out of the place since she was not far from the barrier.
After a few minutes, she was now bored that she started fiddling and playing with her coral beads, she looked around again but there was still no sign of him.
Should I go in deeper? Or I should just return in the evening?
She was thinking then, a thought of a random vampire trying to suck her blood and kill her flashed through her head.
I should probably come back later.
Zoey chuckled nervously and stood up from her squatting position, she already walked a little forward to get a better view so as to not miss Xavier if he was arriving so she was a little, like a stone throw away from the barrier.
She turned around, about to start leaving when suddenly...
"mhphhmphhmphhh" a muffled sound could only be heard, " don't struggle, bitch" a bulky vampire said, coming to face Zoey while another one held a cloth tightly over her mouth and nose.
Zoey kicked and struggled, punched and wringled, she tried to fight back and stay conscious but there was only little she could do since she was against vampires, and not just one but two! Her vision soon faded and she blacked out.
" I did not actually expect her to be here this early, I only said we should come here since boss said so just to give a report back to him. Who knew she was already here waiting for her beloved?" The one who choked her with the cloth laughed with a sneer as he picked her up and carried her, something soft pressing against his shoulder.
"Oh... No wonder agent Xavier got hooked, she's pretty and blessed in the right places, very unchivalrous of him for keeping her waiting " "Berman, don't do anything funny, boss said to bring her untouched and unharmed " the other one quickly warned on seeing the lewd expression on the other's face.
"heh?, I wasn't gonna do anything you dumb, let's leave quickly, agent Xavier might arrive soon, who knows, he might have caught her scent"
The other one agreed and quickly brought out a rocky rune with some unknown inscriptions on it, he crushed it with his hand and almost immediately, a dark red portal opened up, the one carrying Zoey, Berman, nodded and entered first, the other took a quick look around him then also entered the portal which quickly closed as soon as they got through.

A fine looking young vampire with a messy fringe walked towards the barrier with a frown " I could have sworn I smelt her, am I now imagining her smell?" "did she leave?" he asked no one as he looked all over the place as if he was searching for keys and not a person.
"Perhaps I came late and she left thinking I wasn't going to come?" he stood with his arms akimbo.
"That's the most reasonable, 'cause her scent is still lingering around here, so she was definitely here, unless I have just been longing for her presence and my nose is just making up her smell?"
"I doubt that" Xavier shook his head with a chuckle and turned to leave when something shiny caught his eye.
Hmm?
He walked towards the far end of the barrier where the thing was and he recognized it, infact he even knew the owner of the thing "Zoey's coral bracelets?" he said to himself as he picked it up.
A frown formed on his face "Zoey couldn't have forgotten these, she told me how expensive they were" he mumbled as he put them in his pockets, "She didn't get kidnapped did she?".
He stood there for a bit, a certain thought popping in his head.
Could it be....
'i doubt it but just to be sure...'
I might just be overthinking this.
He left the area and walked in deeper with a certain place in mind.

... " I even made a delivery of twenty flasks today before coming here" Scarlett said to her friend who was sat beside her "that's twenty gold coins, if I remember correctly?" Kristine asked.
Scarlett rolled her eyes "come on Kristine, we both know you haven't forgotten ", she said with a laughy smile " I'm just kidding... The truth is, in Zachary hills, the price rate is higher, it sells for five golds per flask and I told you I sell in barrels" Kristine explained "There are forty flasks in one barrel. So that means you earn two hundred golds per barrel!?" Scarlett did the math and almost choked on the parline bread she was eating.
Kristine nodded with a smile "that place is like a money pool for us, and because of our rarity, you would get the utmost convenience and respect, you know here in Saffron village, we have hannyas scattered around, the monopoly isn't there" Kristine said and Scarlett nodded in agreement.
"Maybe I should reconsider my plans of letting Zoey awaken and just spill the beans and take her with me to Zachary " Scarlett said like a joke but she wasn't totally joking.
Kristine laughed and said, "well if you're planning to do that, do it soon so we can leave together next week " "you're going back so soon?" Scarlett asked with raised brows, Kristine nodded and said "it's not wise to leave one's business for too long".
