The group, along with the children, finally entered the minibus, which would transport them to the shelter in about twenty minutes. Luciel and Melisa were thankful that this bus wasn't protected against vampires.
The bus was almost full, with Luciel sitting next to the window at the back, and lined up next to him were Helen and Melisa. Alex and Scarlet were following the minibus inside their own cars and while Alex wanted to join with Luciel, Scarlet didn't share the same opinion.
There was an uncomfortable silence among the party members while the minibus was filled with children's voices who were happy that they would finally reach a safe place.
For Luciel, who had his head leaned against the window with his eyes closed, this pure silence between Helen, him, and Melisa didn't bother him. This was one more hard night and just being like this brought him some peace while trying to stay in control.
