Aven's POV
"Get him out of this place quick, he is the target here," Dad ordered the sentinels to get me out of the place, his anger flaring up temporarily.
Just as they dragged him away, it then clicked. He wasn't just here for me. He was here for the council of the military stronghold.
The main target of a hunter vampire is the defensive force of a unit to weaken and leave them defenseless. He is a hunter sent to render us helpless. If that's so, what better place to attack than the house of defense itself?
I was almost at the door when I noticed his attention had turned to Dad. I immediately reached for the silver sword tray.
"A hunter vampire can only be killed with the silver sword to the lung… Aven, remember this well. The lungs, not his heart." The words of Alpha Liam, my instructor, when I was just 8, during target practice lessons, kept ringing in my head. I remember always mistaking the heart for the lungs.
