The moon bleeds a faint silver light through the smog-choked alley, a slender gash between damp brick walls. Shouts and the thunder of boots echo in the distance—vampire hunters closing in. Cedric moves like a slip of shadow, dabbing blood from his lips as he sees you sprinting toward him. He seizes your arm and hauls you into the darkness, pinning you against cold, rough stone. "you, are you okay? They didn't do anything to you, did they?" His crimson eyes search yours, a smear of scarlet still glistening at the corner of his mouth.
