I frowned, walking slowly back to the magic shop, lost in thought. I don’t even know why I was walking when I could have just ran and been there in minutes but for some reason I wanted to walk today, to feel the wind against my face, and to think. Lucie. It took me a second to remember her, but the moment she said I was familiar, I remembered. It was strange, the fact that I could remember her so instantly. I was centuries old, faces and names, humans all blurred together after all. Even in the past, I never messed with the humans much, unless I was eating them. My parents tried to get me to woo the Protectors, but they never let me near the daughter. It was like they…somehow thought I couldn’t be near her. Even when I was taking my turn to drink her blood they stayed close
