"Isaac! What happened?!" I shout running over to where Lily and Grania are huddling.
"I smelled your blood coming from that guy, so I confronted him. When I saw the knife in his hand with your blood on it, I got mad," Isaac explains after distancing himself from the boy.
Well... I guess it does help to have a vampire who can smell blood from miles away...
"Isaac, don't let that guy out of your sights. He's a member of Black Snow," I order. I turn my gaze over to Lily and Grania who are shaking behind a table. "Are you two okay?"
"Mommy! I'm scared!" Lily cries as she lunges onto me. "Grania... Grania got hurt trying to protect me!"
When I look up at Grania, I notice that she's holding her arm. "Grania, let me see your arm."
"It's just a small scratch. I will be fine," Grania insists with a weak smile.
"That wasn't a request. Show me your arm," I demand in a more forceful tone.
Reluctant, Grania uncovers where her hand is covering her arm to show a huge gash.
