"Come with me. Hold yourselves hard. Don't let go, okay?" I whispered to them, cold sweat prickling down my face.
The children were petrified. The tears streaming down their eyes were relentless. I hated seeing kids like this.
Why?
Why had the vampires chosen such a dark path filled with violence and bloodshed?
I needed to be strong. If I couldn't be physically strong right now, I should be emotionally strong for these kids. I wiped off my sweet and I took their hands and began to lead them to the shield.
From the left, a vampire lunged at us. I wanted to protect us but that meant dropping the children which definitely was a bad idea. They might sprint away in fear, which also wouldn't end well for them.
Next thing I knew, the female vampire with blood dripping from her mouth and chest grabbed my throat, choking me.
