It's been two months now since the money started growing in the bank accounts. I've been moving money from account to account trying to pretend that people have their routines. I stretch out with a sigh, I had been up all night creating scripts to find out how much is being sent into the various accounts, how much is being withdrawn and the profits from each account. I get up and go to my room, I open my little fridge with the blood bags and take one, my fangs came out of them when I saw the blood. I bite into the bag and start drinking. I shouldn't have waited more than four days before drinking, I'm so hungry. I empty the bag in less than a minute and sit on my bed. I keep my eyes closed and breathe to try to calm myself down. I lick my lips and teeth. I feel ecstatic, that blood was so good.
Eventually I open my eyes, I can smell someone other than Drake or Ray. I get up and go see. I hear him talking with Drake. Who is this guy, his blood has a good smell. I arrive in the same room as the two of them and Drake is facing a man who has three heads more than him and it's a mountain of muscle.
Saeko: Hello? Who are you?
Both heads turn towards me, I have my arms folded.
Drake: This is Kellan, you can easily see his power.
Saeko: He's a big muscle man?
Drake: Sort of, yeah.
Kellan: Who are you then?
Saeko: I'm Saeko, the strongest vampire.
Kellan: There's no such thing.
Saeko: There isn't?
I pull out my fangs and come closer. Kellan stares at me and takes a step back.
Kellan: Yeah, that's good.
I smile, I like to impress with my fangs.
Saeko: Also you smell good. Your blood type tends to taste great!
Kellan takes another step back, but still seems to be on his guard.
Saeko: Finally! I've just finished eating and I'm sticking to my figure so you're safe for now, big guy!
I manage to give him a pat on the shoulder and dodge his fist.
Saeko: A bit slow, we'll have to work on that. But first!
I step back a bit, he doesn't really like me. But then, I don't care about his whims for the moment.
Saeko: A makeover might not hurt you.
Kellan: I dressed with what I found, not easy for my size.
Saeko: I know a guy who can help you with that, but he lives out of town. I'm going to see what we need to do first, probably some action.
Drake: You've got a stylist, don't you?
Saeko: Like any self-respecting lady! Besides, he won't mind if I pay him in cash.
Drake: I'm surprised you didn't tell me.
Saeko: Oh my dear, I would never give you all the information I have hm~
I'm digging in my pants.
Saeko: Do a T pose, I'll take pictures!
Kellan sighs and does it. I take pictures all around him. I look at Drake.
Saeko: Come on, your turn.
Drake: Why me?
Saeko: Shh, come on!
I do the same with him.
Saeko: Where's Ray?
Drake: I don't know, in his room?
Saeko: Tss, you're in a really bad mood, I'll make you look like hell and you talk to me like that~
Drake: You're holding out on us, and I don't like it.
Saeko: Don't be childish, you're the team leader, not me.
I'm going to see Ray and knock on the door.
Saeko: Ray! I don't know what you're doing, but open the door.
I hear a little noise, I surprised him.
Ray: Oh, yeah, I'm coming.
It's better if I don't know what he was doing in there. He opens the door when he finishes putting on his sweater.
Saeko: I don't want to explain, but come out and put yourself in T pose.
Ray: Like the people in motion capture?
Saeko: If you say so, come on.
Ray does it and lets me take pictures.
Ray: What's that for?
Saeko: New look, as simple as that.
Ray: Cool!
Saeko: It's ok.
I'm going to my room and close the door. I dial my stylist, Edwin, he hasn't seen me in a while. I put back my phone from my ear, I know he's going to yell at the phone when he answers.
Edwin: Saeko! So glad you called me! What have you been up to, gorgeous!?
I'm smiling a little, predictable. I'm putting the phone back on my ear.
Saeko: I have some... friends of mine, we're going to need you.
Edwin: For new outfits? You know I'm your man for that!
Saeko: For the first one, he will need civilian clothes as well.
Edwin: Easy!
Saeko: I'll send you the photos! When can I pick them up?
Edwin: How far away are you by car?
Saeko: Five or six hours at the most?
Edwin: Perfect, for how many people?
Saeko: Four, including me.
Edwin: Is this a new team? You haven't had a team for a long time!
Saeko: I've got the photos and it's just for fun.
Edwin: You can come and go tomorrow if you want.
Saeko: I'll send you the pictures.
I send him all twelve pictures and put my phone back on my ear.
Edwin: What kind of power does the first one have to be like that? The second one is cute, will you introduce him to me some day?
Saeko: He is not interested in men.
Edwin: He looks like your kind of man.
Saeko: Shhh, is it okay for the pictures?
Edwin: Yes, I'll see you tonight.
Saeko: Yep!
I hang up and change. I'm packing a bag for my clothes for tomorrow and taking some bags and a blood bag. I get out of my room and go meet Drake.
Saeko: Drake, I'm leaving for the night, he's going to make us outfits and clothes for the big dadet.
Drake: You'll be back soon?
Saeko: Sometime tomorrow.
Drake: Okay then.
Saeko: Drake.
Drake: What?
He turns to me. Edwin's right, but now's not the time for that.
Saeko: You can trust me.
Drake: I'm trying, but it's hard when I know you're hiding things from me.
Saeko: You might as well get used to it, I'm like that, I have plans for my plans.
Drake: I see, as long as you don't betray us, I won't shoot you.
Saeko: You're cute when you threaten me, baby~
Drake: I told you not to call me that...
Saeko: I know, but it's cute and it pisses you off, so it's perfect!
Drake: Tsss...
I leave the HQ and head quickly to the place where I hide my bike with the two suitcases on each side. I go in front of one of the walls and put up a shelf before removing a brick behind it, take the key to the bike and the key to the security door. I put the bags in the suitcases and leave for Edwin's shop.
