In a situation like this it was not to panic. The students disappeared from a bar situated uptown, but still it was scary. Many panicked that the same would happen to others, including the university authorities and therefore made it mandatory for everyone to return to their dorm by 9. It was a strict move, but it was essential given the situation at hand.

The scent that had reached Caleb and Ashton the other day reached to them quite a few times on the campus. Unfortunately it’s intensity was never enough to track it’s source. They couldn’t help but think that it had something to do with their disappearance.

The couple were practicing on the field with the rest of the teammates when Karolyn showed up. She received multiple stares from her surroundings until she glared at them to make them turn away. As for Caleb and Ashton, it was her scent that alarmed them about her presence.

Like a reflex, Ashton grabbed his mate’s hand the moment he spotted her. Ashton was ready to shoot deathly stares at her until he noticed her face. It was bruised badly as if she had been in some intense physical fight. Ashton started to guess what could have caused her to look like this while Caleb gawked at his friend with shock.

Caleb knew Karolyn was usually a calm girl. She didn’t indulge in any fight until and unless there was no other choice. She was good at it, but she simply avoided it. Seeing her, all bruised up like that made him wonder what could have possibly happened to her in this university filled with humans.

“What happened”? Caleb asked her.

.....

“Can I talk to you? In private”? She asked while she glanced around her. There were still some people who were still gawking at her.

Ashton’s hold on his mate tightened as a reflex. Ashton looked at Karolyn suspiciously. When Karolyn noticed his gaze on herself she blinked a few times before asking him to join them as well.

Finding a secluded spot Karolyn sighed, “So, I have bad news”. She began.

Before she could say much, Caleb asked, “First tell us why are you so much bruised like this? And why is it taking so forever to heal”?

“I am getting to that. It’s part of the whole story” She mumbled. “Guess who decided to join this university this year”? She asked both of them. Caleb and Ashton glanced at each other before they shrugged cluelessly. “Vampires”.

Both their eyes widened the moment they heard her say that word. In their entire life never have they ever encountered one, most probably because most of them were extinct by now. In fact, due to their inability to survive in the sunlight is one of the major factors on why they were not easily spotted.

“Why...”? Caleb’s question got lost in silence while Ashton simply remained quiet, still trying to comprehend the situation.

“They usually avoid wolf packs, so it;s harder to come by one of these days.” Karolyn sighed. “But there is no pack as such nearby, so I guess it’s no surprise one showed up here”.

“Why was he or she on the campus?” Ashton asked.

“She... is one of the students here”. Karolyn explained. “I am the head of the trivia club and one of them came to join it”.

“One of them..?” Ashton deadpanned.

“Yes, I believe there are more. I have heard that she has other siblings who joined as well”. Karolyn sighed. “Unlike you two, my scent is pretty prominent. With her pungent smell and my own Alpha pheromones, we both knew who the other were”. Karolyn paused a moment. “And that’s how we got into a fight”.

“Why did you bother?” Caleb asked. “You could have just ignored her”.

“I know, but she was the one who attacked me first. She mumbled that I am a threat she did not foresee before she jumped”. Karolyn shrugged. “What was I supposed to do? Let her have it? I fight back.” She huffed. “These scratches will time to disappear” She looked at her hands and mumbled.

Vampire marks slow down the healing process, so unless the blow was absolutely lethal these scratches weren’t really a threat. “What about your face?” Caleb asked.

“This will heal by tomorrow” She shrugged. “That b***ch threw a desk at me, so it’s from that” she explained.

“How are you conscious?” Caleb’s eyes widened.

“I avoided it. But.. not entirely, hence the bruises”. Karolyn explained.

Caleb nodded at her. “But now she knows about you, what if she comes after you along with her ‘family’? What are you gonna do then?” Caleb questioned.

“Which is why I am here”. She sighed. “You guys are better hidden than me, and there is a slight chance that they might avoid me too. I won’t ask you to fight on my behalf, but if possible try to figure out who the other’s are so that we can stay for a lookout”. Karolyn replied.

“Well, if it’s come to that we will fight for you” Caleb declared. He turned around to confirm with his mate, who after a moment of hesitation nodded his head as well. Caleb gave Ashton a smile before he turned around to look at Karolyn, “try to stay out of any trouble. If possible, just send me a text if you get into any troublesome situation.” Caleb instructed her.

She smiled at him and mumbled a thanks and nodded at Ashton. “I really appreciate it” She mumbled.

“I bet one of them is near us” Ashton mumbled after a minute.

Caleb frowned until realisation hit him, “That smell”. He affirmed.

“Yes, let’s get started with that one. Let’s track who that is”. He declared.
