"Please, let me help you," she insisted, "We need to see what we can do about all this." With her free hand, she gestures to the rest of the girl's body. The girl's upper lip rolled back slightly to reveal a pair of fangs that extended a half inch longer than the rest of her teeth and Elizabeth's body went rigid slightly. "Don't worry," she said, unable to look away from her lips, "You're safe."
"Cora," she spoke horsely, "is my name."
She smiled slightly, "Cora, that is a lovely name. I'll keep you safe, Cora, I promise. Let's get you washed, fed, and rested. I will take care of mine and you don't have to worry anymore, alright? Can you walk?"
"I'm...?" she swallowed.
"You're mine," she pulled the girl's hands to her lips, "We are mates, Cora. And I'm not letting go."
