Chapter Eleven

Danielle was in her coffin for three months.

A lot had changed in that time. The weather outside was colder, since we were in the middle of winter. The days were shorter, which meant the vamps were out more in the evening hours as it now darkened by five. Because of this, I was spending more time with Julian and less with Leo. Johnny, visiting friends in England, had been gone for two months. The hypnotist hadn’t officially started, he was still wrapping up loose ends wherever he was from.

More curious was that he was gone and no murders had occurred.

Furthering Danielle’s punishment, since this was her second, Julian did not allow her to feed from his own blood like he did the last time. She remained an ugly, weakened old woman although she looked much better than when she first entered her punishment. She seemed to be repentant and avoided me as commanded. Of course, without her vamp powers and strength, I could easily take her. I wondered how long Julian would leave her without his blood. I was assured by other vamps it would be permanent. I certainly didn’t mind her being old and weak.

Finally, Johnny returned from England and Merrick arrived to start work. Things were nearly back to normal when another murder occurred.

It was a vicious attack and happened in the back alleyway behind Bang’s. The victim was female and a frequent visitor of the bar. As usual, her blood was drained and a business card of Julian’s was left in a pocket of her clothing.

The only difference with this murder was Merrick was the primary suspect. Officer Gearman called to tell us that he was being interrogated and we needed to come quickly.

Julian and I arrived at police headquarters and walked up to the front desk where Officer Oser was waiting. He led us directly to the interview room where Merrick was being questioned about his hypnotic abilities.

As we walked through the station, other officers looked curiously at us. Some already had antagonistic looks. Others looked at me in disgust, the same look I’d come to expect from public places where the population was primarily human.

Oser kept his eyes lowered as he walked us through the offices and cubicles to a larger conference area. It had two doors and we entered one to find we were on the other side of the large room, a huge one-way glass window covering one wall. We could see Merrick being questioned on the other side of the glass.

“I am not a murderer. I have nothing to do with those humans,” Merrick spat out.

“Those humans have names. Do you think because humans have shorter life spans than you they are unimportant?” The detective questioning him angrily threw the photographs on the table. Images of death stared back at us. It was a common police practice but it didn’t work on vampires. Show them a dehydrated body instead, and they’d crack.

“We know that someone extremely strong, supernatural and vampire is the murderer.
