Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: Vampire Princess Nyssa

"I encountered vampires following me, and now I'm tracking them back. Just help me handle the traffic violations," Steve said, weaving through the city streets.

He lost count of how many red lights he ran but, fortunately, avoided any accidents.

Hill leaned back with her coffee, watching the road chase unfold on the monitor. She always kept an eye on her husband.

"I'll take care of it. It's just a red light, not a red-light district. No big deal," she said coolly.

As expected of the deputy director—elegant even in mundane matters.

Boom!

A rocket flew from a distance. Steve dodged it, but the car beside him wasn't so lucky.

The attacks weren't aimed directly at him; they were intended to harm civilians.

A bald vampire filmed the chaos, capturing Steve in the middle of it.

Up ahead, a voluptuous female vampire with neatly cropped hair calmly plucked her nails, her eyes fixed on Steve.

She licked her red lips, excitement glimmering in her gaze.

"Have you filmed everything?" she asked, her voice cold and commanding.

"I took the picture," the bald vampire replied, trembling. He dared not look directly at her. This woman was a predator, even among vampires.

"Make a copy and send it to the Daily Bugle," she ordered. "Say it's a tip-off: the so-called Captain America might be a criminal."

Danica flicked her scarlet-painted nails. Her earlier excitement had turned cold and disdainful.

It was a conspiracy—a plot to turn Captain America into a despised criminal.

And Jameson, the Daily Bugle's boss, was exactly the type who would distort facts for sensationalism.

Steve tracked the car into the suburbs, where it drove into an abandoned factory.

Clearly, an ambush.

After checking the gate and ensuring no one else was around, Steve pressed a button. A machine gun emerged, firing into the factory.

"Ah!"

The vampires screamed. They wouldn't die from the shots, but the pain was excruciating, forcing them into retreat.

The vampire leader growled in anger, "How obscene!"

Swish!

She drew a long sword, leapt gracefully from a ten-meter-high platform, and slashed at Steve.

Steve wiped the oilcloth and stowed the motorcycle. He raised his shield, absorbing the strike, then grabbed her arm to prevent escape.

Knees lifted, he kicked with lightning speed.

Bang!

A muffled groan escaped her lips—a woman's voice.

Steve froze, recognizing something familiar. He twisted her arms and controlled her using standard grappling techniques.

Pulling down her mask revealed a beautiful face.

"Who are you?" Steve asked.

"Don't get me wrong, Captain. We mean no harm. My name is Nyssa. I'm a vampire, and I'm here to work with you."

Nyssa, one of the top warriors in the kingdom, had extraordinary strength, speed, and endurance.

Her elite commando team followed her commands. Yet, she had been captured alive in one encounter—a feat more difficult than defeating her.

"Let your men come out so I can talk to them," Steve said cautiously.

Nyssa twisted uncomfortably, a blush spreading across her fair cheeks. "Okay, can you let me go? You're hitting me!"

Steve shook his head. "No. Let them out and explain why you're here."

Nyssa, never intimate with a man, felt shy and ashamed. The captain's boldness embarrassed her.

"We were originally here to assassinate Blade," she explained.

"But the Council Elder has disappeared, and we suspect a traitor. We share a common enemy with you."

Her blush deepened, spreading to her ears, enhancing her beauty.

"Cooperate with you? What's in it for me?" Steve asked.

Nyssa assessed his strength—truly formidable.

"We can ensure vampires and humans coexist peacefully, as it has for thousands of years. It benefits you as well."

Five vampires emerged from the warehouse—elite warriors: four men and one woman.

"Don't move. I'm negotiating with the captain," Nyssa said, stopping them. Her posture was humiliating, with her right hand tied behind her back.

Steve suddenly released her and pushed her aside.

Several vampires fell silent, astonished at his authority.

"You'll need to consider the terms before speaking to me again. Try to get something for nothing, and I won't let you off next time," Steve warned.

He stowed his shield and summoned the motorcycle like a magician. Twisting the accelerator, he sped off in a cloud of dust.

Nyssa watched, frowning.

"Princess, what now?" one of her men asked.

"Return first. We must find that traitor Fess!" Nyssa snorted. As the king's daughter, her duty was clear.

Her father, the king of the vampire kingdom, held the highest authority over all vampires in the United States. Nyssa, as his daughter, was naturally a princess.
