Chapter 5 Chapter 5

Zane’s POV

I watched the convicts being loaded into the boat and smirked. I could hear their hearts beating erratically. All of them were scared apart from one, I could see she was a woman as she had the small build. I could not see her face as she had the bag on her head, but her body looked nice from what I could see. I was curious to why she was not scared, when the others who were all large men where.

“What did she do?” I asked my second Gerald.

“Killed her best friend” he shrugged

“Did she?” I asked as she was too calm, so she was either a cold-blooded murderer who didn’t give a shit, or she was planning to get revenge on the people who did kill her best friend.

“You don’t think she did?” Gerald asked

“Humour me and look into it for me” I told him

He nodded as he walked away to talk to the guards. They all just thought we were rich businessmen. They had no clue that this Island was mine and this game was run by a bunch of vampires. This was an easy way for us to get fed as the humans would kill themselves and we would get to feed on them while they were still warm. Ten Million was fuck all to pay for some nice fresh blood without the risk of getting caught.

The boat set off and the heart rates climbed even higher. But the woman was still calm and sat still, I was guessing she was using her other senses since she could not see. She knew that she had to go into this calm if she wanted to survive and that’s what she was doing. Sometimes it took more than muscle to win these things.

We arrived at the island, and I stood back as the guards unloaded the convicts before getting back on the boat and leaving. Gerald nodded at me as we both moved to the shadows and I threw my voice, so it sounded like it was coming from all around them.

“You are now alone on the Island” I told them “Somewhere on the island you will find food, supplies and weapons. The rules are simple, the last person alive will with the ten million and the new identity. May the best man, or women win” I chuckled as I melted further into the shadows and watched.

The men all started to freak out trying to get the bags off their heads and their hands untied. The woman was already ahead of them and her hands slipped free of the rope binding her and she pulled the bag off her head. She did a quick scan of the area and then ran up the hill and into the trees.

“She is smart and sneaky” Gerald chuckled

“And beautiful” I groaned as for the first time since I was a weak human, I felt my manhood stir.

“Fuck” Gerald laughed “I hope she does not die before you can fuck her, she might be the only fuck you can get”

“I am more concerned about why she can get my body to react” I growled “No other man or woman could, and the witches could never figure out why or give me a cure. Hell, I even tried human drugs and they did nothing”

“She smells human” he shrugged

“She is human” I sighed “Look into her, I want to know everything”

“On it” he nodded “Are you ok for me to leave you here alone?”

“The others will arrive soon” I told him “The first day always has the most blood shed”

“I will be back tonight with everything I can find” he told me as he disappeared.

I silently followed the woman as she was the first to find the supplies and started to load herself up. The other men were all still on the beach trying to get themselves unbound.

I decided to leave the women to it and get myself comfortable in my viewing tower. The Tower was glamoured so the humans could not see it. I needed somewhere for my men to relax while they waited for the humans to kill themselves. I poured myself a glass of wine before looking down at the humans. Most of the men had finally managed to get themselves untied and were now running off in different directions trying to find the supplies.

I tried to find the woman again, but I could not see her anywhere. I checked in the trees and even on the beach and in the water. I could not see her anywhere and that piped my curiosity, no one could escape the island and survive. She was either very good at hiding or after getting supplies she decided to kill herself, that didn’t make sense. I was going with that she knows how to hide, and I was looking forwards to trying to find her.

We were only a couple of hours in when the first person was killed, and I had still been unable to find the woman. I decided to leave her for now as she had to turn up as no one got of this island without my knowledge. My other business partners had started to arrive, and I let them go after the first kill. I was happy to wait and have the second one, I was hoping it would be darker when he was killed as I was not a fan of venturing out on the island during the day.

Gerald arrived back another couple of hours later and came straight to my side.

“Leave us” I ordered the other men. Once they were gone, I turned to Gerald. “What did you find?”

“She grew up rough, she was a foster kid and was poor. It looks like she was assaulted as a kid, that was until she started to learn how to protect herself. She is a fucking fighter boss, and she didn’t kill her best friend. The evidence was altered by the best friend’s husband, he was the one who killed her as Ivy the best friend walked in on him fucking her sister”
