~ Shards of Opal ~
The baby bunnies were kept in an enclosure that was out of reach of both Ruby and Cezar, who were likely to eat them if they were left to run around loose. Also being contained kept the rabbits from chewing on everything, which was something that they were even worse about than Cezar was.
The cage, however, did not deter Junior from attempting to interact with the baby rabbits.
"Bunnies," the dhampir child cooed as she opened the hatch and reached inside.
Unfortunately for her, before she could grab any of the terrified little animals, Junior found herself being scooped up into her mother's arms.
Hands full of wriggly child (who was making a futile effort to escape), Carmilla closed the cage telekinetically.
"No," she scolded her daughter. "These are my bunnies. Ruby caught them for me. You're not allowed to play with them."
Junior stopped struggling and scowled up at her mother.
The child didn't say anything, and after a few moments Carmilla assumed that she'd won the argument. However, the moment she glanced away from her daughter, she felt a sharp sting as two little fangs sank into her arm.
"Ouch! No! Bad child! How dare you bite me, you little shit!"
