Naomi slowly walked inside the first-class and saw Devon standing against a seat. She was confused about what he was doing here after telling her to wait outside and he never came back. 

"Oey Devon, I waited for you… like forever, you didn't come back so I came instead, it's time to board the flight, would have you kept me waiting there forever?"

She walked inside and stopped in front of Devon. Devon panicked to see Naomi at this time, literally the worst timing. Ryan was laying on the seat as if he was knocked out.

Her eyes didn't move from Devon, Devon gulped, he quickly pulled out a blanket, ran towards Ryan, he threw the blanket over Ryan's body and covered his head too.

"W- what did you do to him?" Naomi asked when her eyes caught Ryan sitting right next to her, "What the hell happened to him?" she asked.

"N- nothing. Ryan was just feeling sleepy-"

"And?" she moved closer to Devon.

"He actually fell asleep so I brought him to the first-class and let him rest in peace, his life has been too rough recently," Devon reported. 

Naomi didn't seem convinced yet so Devon tried convincing her, "He will be able to get a good sleep in here. I thought he might feel cold so I covered him with this blanket. Don't disturb him, he's asleep."

Naomi turned around, "Well, you left our conversation in between for… this?"

"Ah-? N- no. I- I was on my way back when I saw him and"

"Ah. I see. You never came back so I thought something was wrong or you were caught up with something,"

"Right. Right. I am sorry. Naomi, I am really sorry- I kept you waiting there," Devon apologized, "I was about to come back right now-"

"After the flight has taken off?" Devon looked away. He had totally forgotten about Naomi in the first place. 

The next thing Devon planned on taking care of was Brandon in the washroom, he literally forgot that he had Naomi waiting for him.

'He did leave our conversation in between just to take care of Ryan? How did he know about it in the first place?' Naomi thought. 

"I am sorry I didn't come back," Devon looked down. 

After seeing Devon like this, she felt there was no need for her to get angry and no need for Devon to apologize either. It must have been something important, she thought.

Her hand reached Devon's shoulder, his face lit up. With a smile, Naomi said, "Let's do it now then. Let's resume our conversation."

She pointed at her seat, "Sit with me till we land Japan and I will tell you everything about its traditions and cultures."

The smile on Devon's face vanished, "I am sorry." he muttered. 

"Hah? Why? Okay, I will make it short?" she had an innocent look on her face thinking she might have creeped Devon out when that was not her intention. 

"No," he shook his head, "I can't. We can't," he lifted his head, "I am sorry, I have something important to take care of. I will be back." 

"D- devon!" he ran off. Naomi stood there disappointed. She was hoping she could have a conversation with someone after what her mother was doing to her. 

With a glance at Ryan, she dropped herself in her seat. She started feeling sad again. 

Devon quickly pulled open a washroom door. He went inside, closed the toilet's mouth, and sat down on the seat cover. He tapped his head three times when suddenly a bright blue light sparkled. 

'Brandon. Brandon, are you online?' He thought inside his mind. 

This was the communication hairband only vampires have. The elders of the family give these bands to agents and spies. 

This allows them to communicate with fellow agents between missions without speaking anything. This band allows them to use telepathy to communicate. 

'Brandon! I am Devon here. Please pick up the call,' Devon raised his voice.

'Oh. sorry, I was not paying attention. I am online,' Brandon finally replied. 

'What do we do now? We gotta find your items.'

'We gotta take care of Ryan first,'

'What do you mean?'

'He knows about us now,'

'Huh? Didn't he already know about us? Was not he supposed to be a vampire?'

'He might be a Human vampire as we having trouble sensing his Vampire genes but…. He saw me.'

'That's your fault he saw your anger. You should check before attacking anyone,'

'Hmm. Devon… The mission.'

'Tch, I told you-'

'We will be reaching Japan soon. We will be miles away from the Family, it might be too late if you don't take the mission now,'

Devon hesitated before answering, 'N- no. I won't take the mission.'

'OK. I won't either. But if Ryan does anything suspicious, I will take the mission without thinking.'

'Hm. okay,' Devon was not able to stop him anymore cause… he had proof right now. Brandon's items were stolen and Ryan was the main suspect. 

'I won't report this to the family yet. I am giving your friend one last chance. If I saw him involved with our vampire-related business, that will be his end.'

'Okay. I will make sure he doesn't get involved in our vampire business.' Devon nodded. He was sweating.

'If you are caught breaking the vampire rules then with that brat you will be punished by the family too.'

'They don't have any right over Ryan though.'

'If he is involved with our family business then yes, yes they have right over Ryan.' Devon didn't reply. 

****

'Just where do you vanish to, Devon?' Naomi yawned, her eyes fell on Ryan, 'No matter how I see, there is something wrong with him.'

She got up, pushed the seat, and jumped over the seats to sit beside Ryan. she was tired of Devon's behavior. He was constantly avoiding her, she thought. 

'Don't mind me, Ryan. for a while, think I am not Naomi, I am Dr. Mary.'

Naomi lifted her hand and pulled Ryan's covers down. What she saw after pulling the covers was something she wished she had never seen. 

'W- what the fuck are these marks?' she flowed her hands around Ryan's neck and quickly put the covers back, covering his neck.

Her eyes went big, ready to pop out of her sockets any minute, 'L- Ligature marks! Why?! How?!'
