XXV

Dublin told me where his bunker was. Deep underground. So deep that you couldn’t hear, or smell, anything if you walked right on it, which I’d done a few times while I searched for him. He and six other vampires were going to stay there. They had enough blood and poison to last them for more than a year. I didn’t even ask how they’d gotten the blood. I was sure it wasn’t a happy story.

He told me his secret because he still hoped I would go back. In fact, he was sure that I would go ask for his help when I saw what I was really up against. His words.

But I wasn’t going to. I was sick and tired of running and hiding. It was more than time to take action.

So I ran back and searched for Tif. Hammer was a Doyen, that much he’d told me. I saw no reason why Tif would lie to me. I could only hope he would agree to help me.

I found him two nights later. He was with two other vampires, and I had to wait a few hours until he was finally alone.

When I fell in front of him, he nearly screamed. Seriously. I didn’t think anybody was as young and inexperienced as he seemed to be. Which just showed how much of an asshole Hammer had really been.

“Do you always just pop around people like that?” he said once he recognized my mask.

“How about that drink you promised me?” I said instead.

“Right now?” He looked behind at the vampires he was with, but they were long gone.

“Yes. Do you have anything better to do?”

“Not really.” He flinched. “But I don’t have any poison with me right now.”

“Don’t worry. I do,” I said. “Follow me.”

I took him to a building close to where I was staying. Once we were on the roof, seven stories up, I made sure nobody was within hearing distance, before I turned to him. This was going to be really awkward. I had no idea how he was going to react.

I gave him one small bottle of vodka, and took the big one for myself.

“What’s up, man? Did you do the stuff you had to?”

He looked so comfortable, so unsuspicious of anything around us that for a second I wondered whether this was a good idea.

“I did, actually. What have you been up to since I last saw you?”

“Nothing. Walking around, meeting up with guys. The usual.”

“What if I told you a secret?” I said. There was no point in going in rounds. The sooner I got it over with, the better.

“A secret?” Curiosity lit his eyes.

“A secret,” I said with a nod.

“What kind of a secret?”

“A very secret one.”

He grinned.

“But you’d have to promise me two things. One, that you will not freak out. And two, that you won’t tell anybody about it, unless I tell you to.”

“I’m not going to promise you shit,” he said, shaking his head.

“Trust me, it’s worth it. It’s a pretty awesome secret.
