"Almost everything, but still vague," said the mysterious man.
"What are they?" Katie asked curiously.
“Umm, do you want to know? The problem is that you're one of them."
"What? What do you mean I'm one of them?" Katie asked, felt a bit frightened and uneasy.
"It does not matter. It's just that somehow I feel like the person I trusted seems to have betrayed me. It seems they didn't carry out the orders I gave them properly. I feel something is wrong. And I heard you were looking for Bert, is that right?” the man asked, glaring at Katie.
There was no other way for Katie but to admit that she had indeed been looking for Bert and Mrs. Jenkins.
“Yes, the others and I have indeed been looking for Bert's whereabouts. But, he wasn't at home. After that, we looked for Mrs. Jenkins and she wasn't at home either. After that, we haven't done anything, we just want to know exactly what happened to Scott's dad. That's all," Katie said, starting to get scared.
"Okay. Your story does make sense and according to my observations, you are not telling lies. Oh yeah, it's getting late, I'm so sleepy. Let's go to sleep," he said to Katie.
"Yes, sir. I need to go to the bathroom first." Then Katie stood up and walked into the bathroom. In the bathroom, Katie immediately cleaned herself and put on her kimono. Then, she came out of the bathroom and found the mysterious man who had fallen asleep.
She hasn't felt sleepy but felt thirsty exactly, then Katie decided to go to the kitchen and see what drinks she could find. After putting on sandals and tightening the straps of her kimono, she opened the bedroom door and walked slowly down the stairs to the kitchen.
All the lights in the room in the man's house were still on and only two maids came out of the room at the same time that the girl didn't know. Then, she took the initiative to greet the two of them.
"Hi, good evening. May I know where the kitchen is?” Katie asked.
“Hi, are you the guest who just came last night?” asked one of the servants.
“Yeah, I just arrived last night. I couldn't sleep and I was thirsty, so I went downstairs and tried to find a drink in the kitchen,” Katie replied.
"Okay. You can walk straight from here, then after reaching the dining room, turn right and you will find the kitchen next to the dining room. We went to rest first. Good night, Miss," they said as they left Katie.
"Good night and have a good rest."
Katie kept walking down the living room, into the dining room, and finally to the kitchen. She looked around, for her the kitchen was very spacious and quiet. Then, she opened the large refrigerator located in the middle of the kitchen and took a bottle of mineral water.
After closing the refrigerator and propping herself up on the kitchen table, Katie took a leisurely drink and thought about the next steps she and Scott should take. The mysterious man knew quite a lot and that meant they had to move more carefully.
Unexpectedly, Vlad had been observing Katie's movements. The man knew that Katie was a member of the Blood Moon Pack. While walking slowly and sneakily, then Vlad called the girl in a low voice.
"Katie," he called.
