Sylvia's POV:
As per my agreement with Felix, I couldn't get back inside the wall until I heard the bell ring at five o'clock, which indicated the end of the hunting.
So I decided to use this time to save some werewolves, knocking several vampires out one after another.
I wanted to get to the point and kill these vampires, but in order not to cause Felix any trouble, I managed to restrain myself.
It was just a few hours, but it felt as though an eternity passed.
Towards the end, the vampires dwindled in number.
I didn't know if they had retreated or were hiding in dark corners, waiting for new prey.
As I turned to an alley, I gritted my teeth and wiped the blood off my hands. I had tried and failed to save a werewolf just now. A vampire had bitten him on the neck, slicing into the artery. I couldn't save him.
Staring at my blood-stained hands, I was in a bad mood.
Just then, I heard a sudden ear-piercing scream that came from the depths of the alley, followed by clumsy footsteps.
My gut wrenched and I instinctively ran towards the noise.
As soon as I turned a corner, I saw a tall, thin teenager running towards me. He was being chased by a vampire.
I recognized him. He was one of the werewolves who robbed Felix the first day we arrived at this pack; he was also one of the werewolves pushing Felix into the hands of the vampire duke earlier tonight.
Although I was disgusted with the way he had acted, I still tried to save him.
The vampire didn't see me coming. When he rounded the corner, I knocked him out from behind.
"Is he dead?" The boy kicked the vampire's hand anxiously, fear written all over his face.
"He'll wake up if you kick him again," I said coldly.
The teenager withdrew his foot sulkily. Looking at me in embarrassment, he scratched his head and finally said, "Thank... Thank you."
