Chapter 393: Finally Going Home

(Third Person).

Meredith smiled softly, brushing a lock of dark hair from the child’s face. "I was, but see? I’m all better now."

The girl’s eyes widened. "Really?"

"Really."

Relieved, Xamira grinned. "Then come! Daddy said breakfast is ready!"

Meredith chuckled. "Alright, let’s go."

Then, she took Xamira’s hand, and together they walked down the corridor toward the dining hall.

When Meredith stepped into the room, she found Draven seated at the head of the long table. Dennis and Jeffery were at the table as well.

The smell of roasted meat, fresh bread, and coffee filled the air.

Draven looked up the moment she entered, his dark eyes softening. "You’re awake," he said. "How are you feeling?"

"Better," she replied, taking a seat beside him. "I’m completely healed, actually."

He gave a small nod, satisfaction flickering across his face.

Xamira climbed onto a chair next to Dennis, who smiled and helped her to some fruit.

Draven’s gaze lingered on her for a moment longer, pride showing in the subtle curve of his mouth, before his attention shifted to the large TV mounted on the far wall.

The television displayed a sleek news studio, where a woman in a red blazer sat behind the anchor’s desk, her tone composed but firm.

"Breaking news," she announced. "Mayor Brackham has officially revoked Duskmoor’s state of emergency. Citizens are now free to return to their normal routines as the threat of the recent monster attacks has been eliminated." 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

The screen shifted to show Brackham standing at a podium, flanked by his advisors and senators. His expression was solemn, though his eyes gleamed faintly with practised composure.

"My dear citizens," Brackham began, his voice heavy with feigned grief, "last night, our city suffered a terrible tragedy. Innocent lives were lost to the bloodthirst of the vampire invaders."

He paused, lowering his head as though in mourning. "To the families of those who perished, you have my deepest condolences. Duskmoor grieves with you. But rest assured—your government stands with you. You are not alone."

Meredith’s lips pressed together as she watched him. The man’s performance was flawless—every word carefully chosen, every pause deliberate.

Brackham continued, "Our forces are working tirelessly to ensure your safety. The vampires have been driven from our lands, and I promise you—they will not return. From this day forward, we will rebuild stronger, safer, and united under one purpose: to protect Duskmoor."

A wave of polite applause followed from the audience gathered behind the cameras.

Draven’s expression was unreadable. He picked up the remote and turned off the TV. The sudden silence in the room was almost deafening.

Dennis leaned back in his chair, scoffing. "Wow. This old man is unbelievable."

Jeffery raised a brow. "You mean ungrateful."

Dennis shook his head, his tone sharp with irritation. "Exactly. Not even a word of thanks for the people who actually saved his precious city."
