Chapter 231 - 231: Plans In The Dark
Ezra strode through the revolving doors of the Star Heights Hotel, his wives following behind him.
The patrons of the hotel scrambled out of his way as he stalked the halls like a man with a purpose, which he was.
The presence of the incredibly attractive group attracted the attention from both guests and staff. He was recognized by a few staff, from his time visiting Griffin. They stood, watching him go, knowing not to get in his way.
He walked the usual route, heading towards the part of the hotel hidden from human eyes.
He knew that with his approach, the Necromancer would already be aware that he was coming and that was what he wanted.
The Necromancer wouldn't miss such an opportunity to finally get Ezra into his group of undead minions.
After a few minutes, Ezra pushed open the door and entered the familiar entrance hall. This time, there was no one behind the secretary's desk.
Was the Necromancer waiting for him with his forces in the throne room? Ezra grinned, baring his teeth. He'd brought his wives with him this time. They were more than enough for this task.
He opened the grand doors to the throne room and entered, taking in the change in decor.
He walked in, his footsteps echoing in the vast space. At the top of the dias sat a grand throne made of bones.
"Will you look at that?" Gen grinned as she came to stand beside him. "Someone whose ego is even bigger than Griffin's."
Ezra stood there staring at the empty throne. What was going on? Where is the Necromancer?
He took a deep breath, taking in the scent of the room. Vampires emitted no natural smell from their bodies but that wasn't what he was looking for. Clothes had distinct smells of their own which they took from the environment or by coming into contact with other things.
He took in the scent that lingered in the room.
The room had still been occupied an hour ago.
Ezra's eyes narrowed as he stepped closer to the throne. Red and Olivia spread out slightly, looking for any clue.
Gen crouched down beside him, her eyes
The Necromancer leaned forward, interested. "Go on."
"What if I gave him to you on a silver platter?"
The Necromancer watched her for a few seconds before speaking. "Your offer is very tempting but why should I accept it?" He asked. "What's in it for you? What are you getting out of it?"
"Haven't you wondered why I still work with Countess Yuri even though I betrayed her for my own ends not too long ago?" Helena asked. "Yuri has something I want and Ezra Matten is getting in my way." Helena answered. "With him out of the way, there will be no one else but me to receive it."
"I see." The Necromancer nodded. "Will it be safe to assume you came with a plan?"
"I did." Helena nodded.
"Let's hear it."
"Ezra Matten recently had a huge sum of money stolen from him." Helena leaned forward, dropping her voice to a whisper. "How do you feel about becoming the thief?"
