Chapter 24

The RV was starting to reek, even to Horsham. He’d enjoyed his little nostalgic foray into his primitive past; it had brought back memories of his savage feedings before Terrill had found him and taught him how to behave. Pretty soon it would be time to move on.

He’d enjoyed sitting there, listening to the police scanner, letting the cops roust his prey into the open. Despite their excitement, the police were overconfident about catching Terrill, unless the old vampire had lost all his skills.

Even Horsham would have a hard time tracking him down if he didn’t want to be seen.

No, better to lie in wait, somewhere Terrill was likely to turn up. Unless he was mistaken, that would be the home of his last victim’s family. Terrill would be trying to make amends, to apologize. In his weakness, he would break every Rule of Vampire.

Horsham had watched the dead girl’s house for the past two nights, but had either just missed Terrill or the other vampire hadn’t shown up yet. Horsham would give it another couple of nights before he tried something different.

As he got ready to leave the RV, one of the corpses belched gas, and Horsham wrinkled his nose in disgust.

There was a reason he had lived in such luxury over the last few centuries, after all. He’d begun to enjoy it.

No, he decided, it was time to leave now. He’d abandon the motor home where it was and book a room somewhere, take a long, scented bath, have a glass of wine.

There were no witnesses. He’d taken care of that.

He packed a bag, unhooking the police scanner and shoving it among the underwear and socks. He grabbed his laptop and left, locking the door behind him. As he walked away, he left a little ghost town of RVs of all shapes, sizes and ages.

All of them empty of life.
