Bedding My Vampire Mate-Chapter 540 They Struck Again

"I believed I asked a simple question so why do you take turns gazing at each other instead of responding?" Amos scolded sternly.

"That....," Someone barged in before the tallest among the three men could talk.

"I am sorry I arrived late," Kyle apologized. He moved to stand beside Amos afterwards.

Amos, who was more worried about what happened in his absence, ignored him. He shifted his attention back to the men in his front.

"Do you mind telling me where Ellison and the others went?" Amos asked more seriously this time around.

"Are they perhaps slacking?" Kyle added. He gave the three men intimidating stares so they won't dare to lie to them.

"Of course not....,"

"Then where the hell are they?" Kyle and Amos chorused as if they could reach others' minds.

"Last night there were movements in front of the palace so Ellison and the others went to check on what happened but only to vanish into thin air," The tallest guy among them replied.

"They vanished without a trace?" Kyle asked with widened eyes. He exchanged puzzled glances with his partner who seems to be as equally shocked as him.

"Yes... at first, we thought they pulled a prank on us but a few minutes later it dawned on us that they were really gone and that it wasn't a joke...,"

"All of you were here, so are you trying to tell us that you don't know what happened to them or who took them away?" Kyle asked, still unable to believe what had just been relayed to them.

"You talk as if you haven't seen what they are capable of," Amos mumbled as he walked to the couch and sat down.

"I doubt things would have been any different if we were present here last night," Amos added, his eyes fixed on the guy approaching where he sat.

"Didn't we make all these arrangements to catch those framing you, the royal family and the vampires for being responsible for the killings in the Kingdom? So why are you acting nonchalant about this?" Kyle questioned Amos for the first time since the operation was established.

"Of course, that was why this operation came into existence in the first place...,"

"Then why don't you look affected at all that instead of making progress we have lost our men to those stupid fools who blatantly kill our people without an ounce of fear...,"

"Haven't you heard that you can never beat what you don't know?" Amos quizzed. He stood up and strolled towards the glass window that was covered with curtains.

"But we know that the humans are responsible for the disturbances in the Kingdom. They want to cause instability so they can seize the opportunity to attack us...," 𝒷ℯ𝒹𝓃𝓸𝓿ℯ𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝓶

"And are you insinuating we should imprison all the humans living in the Kingdom just because we know that the human world is responsible for our current troubles?" Amos demanded in a cold tone.

"You know that is not what I meant...,"

"Kyle, we just need to catch one of them or even see the faces of those who have been perpetrating evil in my Kingdom....," Amos trailed. He grinned and peered out of the window.

"And I promise you that none of them will be safe again when that time comes. I will hunt them down until none is left to relay their downfall to the mastermind," Amos declared, his fist tightly clasped.

"I will kill at least one of them for what they put us through when that time comes," Kyle asserted, his right hand balled into a fist.

"I bet so many others share the same thoughts with you," Amos replied as he spun and peered at where the three guys stood, looking at him for the next step.

"After what happened, I believe we need to restrategize our next step because there is no way they are gonna fall into our trap now that they are aware of our operation," Kyle suggested in a calmer tone.

"Of course that is a given," Amos replied. He strolled to the couch in the middle of the large room.

"Everyone let's restrategize," Amos muttered, he beckoned them with a wave of the hands to come closer.

Meanwhile, as Amos worked with his team, Joanna who had also woken up early was seen drafting the plan for her group's performance.

By the time Audrey woke up she was nearly done with her work.

"You are up already?" Audrey who just opened her eyes asked as she propelled her body up and leaned her back against the headboard.

She rubbed her eyes with her right hand and tried to adjust her eyes to the brightness of the room.

"Hmm...," Joanna replied, she momentarily spared Audrey a glance only to return it to the screen in front of her.

"What are you doing exactly?" Audrey demanded, crawling out of bed.

"Do you have any pending projects that I don't know of?" She added and moved to the table not far from where the bed was.

"Also, why are you using my laptop instead of the one I got for you?" She inquired.

When she got to where Joanna sat, she stood behind her back, bent and peeped at what she was typing.

"No peeping," Joanna exclaimed and immediately covered the white screen with her palms.

She was forced to stand up after she realised that Audrey was still able to read what was on the screen.

"Stingy!" Audrey hissed and moved about two steps backwards.

"Have you forgotten who I learnt it from or do you want me to refresh your memory of yesterday's event?" Joanna muttered.

She smiled at the lady whose pouty lips she found hilarious.

"T-t-that...," Audrey mumbled but her frown didn't ease up even though she knew she was guilty of what Joanna accused her of.

"And about the laptop you got for me, I remember asking you to return it and get a refund...,"

"Were you serious about that?" Audrey asked. By this time, her sulking expression was long gone.
