87. Recovery

Days would pass as the four young vampires were monitored and kept under surveillance. To ensure their injuries properly healed. And that they were okay. Eventually all of them were cleared. And allowed to go on with life as normal.

As normal as a vampiric life could be.

In the training room. Aurella would roll out of the way of one of Maurice's blows. As their game of cat and mouse ensued.

"Come on Aurella! You need to strike back!" The girl would order as she went after Aurella with another blow. This one she wasn't able to dodge.

Taking the hit to the gut. Aurella would feel the full brunt of the hit. As the air completely left her body. Leaving her on the ground as she tried to force any air back into her lungs.

Realizing this. Maurice would quickly kneel besides Aurella placing a hand on her shoulder.

"I'm so sorry Aurella. I got too caught up in the moment" Maurice would say apologetically.
