Incubus' Blood Harem

[Back at Coulter's place]

"Something still isn't right. It seems I'm unable to see past some invisible barriers of illusions."

Coulter sat in his lounge with the tablet placed in front of him. His worry and agitation constantly rose due to the lack of clues. For the first time in his life Coulter was unable to track anything about the culprit.

"Fuck! Fuck! I have to find something. These two cases must have something in common and related."

He shoo his head and reach for the table again, Coulter's scar face showed no sign of giving up. He was the man of geniuses, valor and determination. A mere point of being stuck did not waver his passion for grabbing the culprit by collars!

He switched on the tablet and skimmed directly to the footage recorded during the visit at Jack's House. Coulter was impatient to study it thoroughly for the nth time because his gut feeling was not satisfied.

[Clip is played]

The inspection squad A was set towards his house, which was led by Coulter,  Lydia's father. Coulter was successful in attaining the orders from the higher ups to bother Mr Jones, and in the worst case take him and Kayden into custody for interrogation.

He was in the vehicle on his way to the house, as the cab driver informed them about the traffic blocking; the main junction traffic surge was completely paused. The news spread that perhaps the team was interrogating for Jack's murder.

But Coulter was filled in with the information during his way, the driver switched and took the squad members to the dead's house. The head was greeted by Jack's father who was wailing with tears for the son he had always despised.

"Can we see the dead body?"

Coulter asked the permission as a formality and entered the crime scene. A pungent foul smell intoxicated his senses making him gag, the stench of Jack's decaying body made them all churn their stomachs.

'This...what even is this?'

The sight completely caught him off the guard, Jack's dismembered body was not a shocking moment. Instead the dead body was decaying rapidly, Jack's cheeks were sunken, and his skin had already turned dirty green.

The vampires who died naturally were no different than the humans, but murdered ones were reduced to decay. However the rapid process and the dismembered body was not what Coulter expected to encounter.

'Is the killer a psycho or someone with one missing screw?'

Coulter concluded it considering the condition of the body, although it had just been a day since Jack was killed. His father barged into the crime scene while shedding his crocodile tears.

"Find the murderer immediately, I want him strangled for killing my only son."

The sly old vampire was wailing and shouting consistently, however he knew what the cunning fox was trying to do. The higher ups who were supposed to handle laws and appoint the squads to regulate them; had derived a system to help the needy.

Now that the breadwinner was dead, Jack's father should get compensation till he could find some job. But things were not going the way they were supposed to, greed, envy and sloth had infested the whole kind.

Coulter completely ignored his pleas and covered his nose and mouth with a mask. It was a small bead's size of which spread like an energy wave around his face. The insulation worked effectively. The vampires had been using different blood groups for numerous purposes to create unbelievable inventions.

The magical elements within their blood caused a deviation which produced a variety of elements. Since they could not cast spells directly this indirect method of attaining magic was used to increase the intensity of weaponry items.

It was similar to studying the chemistry periodic table, but with the magical elements present in blood groups. However Kayden' blood group was completely absent from the table of existing blood groups.

'Who is this killer? Does he belong to some other race?'

Coulter reached the conclusion upon analyzing that there was not a single drop of blood in the crime scene. And it was impossible for a vampire to feed on blood that much willingly, because it was just a pleasurable delicacy induced to create bonds.

Since feeding on the blood could not serve as permanent energy booster, hence why would the murderer drink every drop of Jack's blood? The question troubled Coulter and he concluded basing his theory on the emergence of the foreign entity.

"Chief, there is nothing. The killer is clever, he left no clue for us to track him or even to figure out his identity."

The beta approached after wrapping up his thorough investigation. Everything was in vain since Malcolm wiped off all the clues and every possible thing, which could indicate their origin.

Coulter skimmed his gaze around the room and everything was right in the place. However the absence of every kind of foreign fingerprints irked him, those could be the only potential clue.

"Mhm, collect one of the limbs and send it to the lab. Leave the rest of the body here, it's of no use now."

Jack's father wanted to object to the idea to avoid going through the trouble of disposing of the dead body. However he could not oppose the decision of the head of the squad, that too of squad A!

As the beta did his job, Coulter keenly observed Jack's face and could see the horror in his eyes. It simply disturbed and shook his inner self, Coulter still felt that something was missing.

'Why am I sensing that something is still hidden? There is something which I'm unable to see.'

His crimson eyes glowed and the man closed his eyes, his buffed up body radiating a red aura which spread like smoke throughout the room. Coulter was among the topnotch people who had unlocked some potential regarding blood magic.

The visible red aura was actually a brief portion of his blood combined with magic. It spread around and began to accumulate at one spot where the aura took the shape of an incubus.

"Oh my goodness!"

The alpha and rest members gasped in shock seeing the vague image of Malcolm, it could hardly help recognize his face. But the horns and the wings were enough to indicate the race of the renowned killer.
