CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

 

The two hysterical women had been successfully calmed by Kelly and Justine, then had explained what they had been running from.

Kelly had been the first to go into the toilets, and found the woman lying on the floor, bleeding from the neck – but she was alone.

The women had said they’d left two other women in there with their friend; a black girl and a blonde woman, dressed for the party. But Kelly had seen no one leave the toilets, and there was no other way out.

This was odd.

An ambulance was called and the captain headed to the nearest pier at Tower Hill, where the woman was rushed to Hospital.

When everyone had left the toilets, Esjekshb and Keneisha became visible, and hurried off the boat amongst the confusion.

They hailed a black cab and asked to go to the Kingsmead Estate in Hackney.

Keneisha had explained what had happened to her, preceding the blood thirst.

Her dealer, Darryl, had given her free drugs, on the condition that she be his guinea pig for a concoction he’d made. She had readily agreed, and injected herself with the potion, but nothing had happened, until she had woken up in hospital after the incident in Soho.

With a craving for blood.

‘Take me to him, ’ Esjekshb had said.

And they had gone to Hackney.
