"She can't stay here, Isa! There is no room for another bloodsucker!" Rohan growled in rising anger. He was doing this for her sake, couldn't she see it and put herself first before others?
"She can manage just like you and Rav and Gwen have been managing!" Belle yelled back at him, angry that he was raising his voice at her for the first time in a long while because she wanted to save a friend. Why couldn't he see that the woman needed them? Where would she go if they threw her out into the streets of a land where their kind were killed?
"Not with the amount of blood I have to keep for you everyday! That woman cannot stay here in this house—she's leaving, or I'll kill her myself." Rohan moved forward to grab Evenly's hand, but the look of shocked disbelief in Belle's eyes stopped him short in his tracks, realizing too late what he had said wrong.
"What do you mean?" she questioned, her eyes looking up at him with confusion. "I... I take blood? When?"
