The Accidental Vampire

"Atlan?"

Both Atlas and Lilith were taken aback as they heard the demand of the young lady. Just what did she mean she wanted them to free Atlan? Atlas was a Progenitor and was no weaker than Castiel. Why would he need someone to free him?

Moreover, it wasn't as if Castiel and Atlan were close. All those who knew about Progenitors knew that Castiel wasn't close to Atlan or even any other Progenitor for that matter. He always stayed alone since his perception of things was different. In fact, there were even times when Castiel fought the other three Progenitors.

If this girl was clever enough to know their identity, it was evident that she must've known about this enmity as well. So why did she ask Castiel? And what could be the help that Atlan needed? He was so strong that no enemy could hold him back or capture him. No one could even dare, so why?

"Do you know where Atlan is?" Lilith asked. "How do you know that?"

"Of course, I know where he is. Why else would I ask you to help me? If you promise to help me, I'll give you all the answers you need." Yovana played with the piece of talisman in her hand. "So, do you promise? You can bring the little wolf for help too."

"You realize Lord Castiel and Atlan were never close? Why don't you go with other Progenitors for help instead of coming to him?"

"I would've if I had known where they were," the young lady answered. "Finding a Progenitor is harder than finding a needle in a haystack the size of the earth. No one had seen any in centuries, and no one knows where they went."

"Maybe Lord Castiel can help me understand? Where did he disappear? The other Progenitors might've done the same. So, Lord Castiel? Where were you all these years? Did you go into a deep slumber?"

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Atlas didn't answer the question. Instead, he was still stuck on the thoughts about Atlan. He was being asked to free a Progenitor when Lilith had asked him to stay away from all Progenitors since they could realize what he truly was. Atlan was no different.

But what stunned him even more was the fact that Atlan needed his help?

"What kind of trouble is he in?" Atlas asked, changing the topic. "What exact help do you need?"

"Well, it's simple. After all the other Lords disappeared, Lord Atlan roamed the world alone, feeling somewhat lonely. Ultimately, even he decided that it was probably time for him to take his eternal sleep," Yovana answered calmly.

"Unfortunately, before he could, he was captured by someone..."

"He was captured? Who could capture Atlan?" Lilith asked. "I don't think he was that weak. Moreover, why would someone capture him?"

"Possibly because of me," The young lady scratched the back of her head as if reminiscing about the incident. "I did something... Something stupid."

As she talked, she glanced at Lancaster for a brief second.

The subtle glance didn't escape the observation of Lilith. "Let me guess. The Werewolves did it?"

"Well, yeah. But they weren't alone. The Werewolf King is certainly as strong as a Progenitor, but even one as strong as him can't capture a Progenitor. They had the help."ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"Help from the Witches?"

Only Witches could be powerful enough to help the Werewolves in capturing a Progenitor. Without that help, even the Werewolves were to have a hard time, so it didn't take Lilith long to understand the implications.

"Exactly. The hate of Witches for the Vampires isn't hidden. There are some Witches who work with the Vampires due to their own greed, but there are more who simply hate them. On the other hand, they have more favorable feelings for the werewolves," Yovana explained.

"Both Witches and Werewolves have a limited lifespan, so of course." Lilith nodded. "On the contrary, Vampires defy the laws of nature with their lifespan, most importantly Progenitors who are true Immortals."

"Exactly. With the help of Witches, the Werewolf King managed to capture Progenitor Atlan. A prison is prepared in the Royal Werewolf Kingdom to keep Progenitor Atlan so he couldn't get out. The Witches created the prison and even fortified it."

"It's impossible for any ordinary person to even enter the Royal Werewolf Empire, let alone help Progenitor Atlan out. Only someone who has the strength to hold the Werewolf King back can achieve it, and who better for this job than another Progenitor?"

"You said Atlan is in prison because of you? Why would that be? What did you do?"

"I don't think I need to answer that. I already gave you all the information you needed so you can understand what you need to do. Will you help me? Just make a promise that you will, and I'll take you to your sister."

"Fine. I promise I'll help you get Atlan out. Now take me to my sister. I accept the deal."

Atlas didn't even take a second to take the deal. As for taking it right away, he had multiple reasons for it. He didn't know how long he could exist in this body, so he needed to get to his sister fast. He didn't have time to waste.

And secondly, the lady was just asking for a promise. He wasn't really Castiel in the first place. He didn't care about promises. He didn't have the moral high ground and dignity that Castiel had. A promise was just that... A promise.

After getting what he wanted, he could decide what to do with the promise. It was only after getting his sister back that he was going to determine if he needed to take the lady seriously.

Still, he had already made up most of his mind that he wasn't going to help her. He didn't know Atlan; he didn't know this girl or who she was. All he was told was that he needed to do this to get his sister. It was basically a blackmail. So he didn't feel bad about breaking his promise either if needed.

"I, Castiel, promise you that if you take me to your sister, I'll help you free Atlan," he promised.

It was as if Lilith understood what he was thinking. She didn't try to stop Atlas from promising.

Only Lancaster was the one who didn't understand. The mission was to infiltrate his Empire? He felt like he was betraying his Bloodline by betraying his Empire like this, but he had also promised Atlas that he was going to get his sister back.

If the only way to get her back was through this route, he couldn't just say no, as that would be breaking his promise to Atlas.

He was really conflicted.
