“What-?”

When did I- but then I remembered that when I had pushed Andre off of me, he had accidentally scratched me with his claw. The bleeding had stopped and only a dark red line of dried blood remained that too would heal by morning. But Clay was probably angry I got hurt by him.

“It’s alright,” I told him, cautiously taking a step in his direction. “It’ll heal soon. I’ll be fine.”
