Elisabetta felt so strange and yet instead of curling up on the pillow to wait for it to pass she scooched closer to the demoness. If she could just hug her...Just a little one....
"But don't they hurt?" She padded on her hands and knees, reaching out with one hand to touch it when her mother's yelling broke through the fog. She pulled back reluctantly. "I..I..."
Her own tentacles were stretching out of their skin to reach J'hers and the longest one had managed to do just that. It was granted a stroke before the demoness pounced and Lissy started screaming.
It wasn't in fear, but in rage at Vampy for taking her away. "LET ME GO!" She kicked and punched at him, her tentacles pitching in while simultaneously trying to get back to J'her. "YOUR HURTING HER! LET ME GO!" The child turned up to him to roar and sink her fangs into his arm.
Gabrielle reached up to snatch her away from him and coddle the now sobbing child to her chest. Without looking back she jogged out of the room. "Shhh, it's alright now."
"No it's not," Lissy moaned. She buried her head into her mother's shoulder. "He's hurting her. He did it on purpose, mommy, we just wanted to play!....just wanted to play..." She all but screeched before breaking down to a mournful whisper.
The human woman took a deep breath and stroked her back while looking at Vampy. "I'm sorry about that." She nodded to the bite. "She doesn't usually act like that, honest.....I think this whole meeting was a mistake."
