Chapter 95
The emaciated vampire moved with astonishing speed, causing Alex's pupils to contract in fear. It felt as though he was undergoing a surreal experience, where everything around him slowed down, akin to watching an action movie with exaggerated visual effects.

A bitter laugh escaped Alex's lips as he realized the source of the noise. It seemed absurd that, in such a dire moment, his focus shifted to something as trivial as the crunching sound of the water bottle still clutched tightly in his hand.
