Chapter 171: Black Sidetrack
After the small drive around the Hometown, Liam and Riley were both in the Mayor’s Office.
"You were attacked by the ghoul killer?" Miles said, stunned, not believing his ears. The ghoul killer was alive? The very one who persecuted them like they were nothing. "I thought he was dead!"
"That’s what we thought too until he showed up on our plane like nothing happened," Riley said crossing her leg, leaning back on her seat, still pissed their honeymoon was ruined by him, he took them by surprise something they never thought of.
"We have a reason to believe Vincent Jones is behind this" Liam spoke up in a firm tone.
"Vincent Jones, Barbra Jones’ brother?... but I thought the hunt was over, the government made that very clear, what we are dealing with is the opposing party who still don’t accept our kind" he states.
"That’s what we thought too, but it seems like Vincent has something up his sleeves, I’m sure Seth does too," Liam said certainly, that sadistic Seth always outsmarted them, but definitely not this time he hoped. Whatever plan he would bring, he hoped to crush them, their past experience with him was a bad memory, he recked havoc wherever he goes, now he was working with Vincent, who knew what they were set to accomplish ’together’ it was like two explosive bombs meeting and causing devilish destruction in everything they touched.
"The ghoul killer believes we killed Barbra, surely it’s Vincent doing, manipulating runs in the family," Riley said sarcastically. She never considered being a Jones and she never will be. They were a lost cause to her.
"This is too much. If he decides to start up the hunt..." Miles said as his eyes widened in horror, he was in fear, he knew how many loved ones he had lost when the hunt was still on, it was one of his darkest days.
"Relax Miles, this Hometown is off the radar, I made sure of it, it’s off the grid, even if they come here by chance as long as they don’t have the passage they will meet nothing here, this place is well hidden" Liam assured him, he made sure all the Hometowns were lying off the grid, his experience with the former ghoul underground taught him that, thank God technology was rapid these days or he wouldn’t have pulled it off.
Miles sighed nodding, but fear was still evident in his eyes.
"My wife and I have to go back to New York, but we can’t do that when we know they are still out there tracking us, we have to be on the low for now, until we’re sure it’s safe" Liam states.
