Alfred clutches back as he's hugged - taking the moment where Herbert isn't looking into his face to let himself be frightened. What WAS that? It was like something had hidden a trap in his lover's mind. Why? How?
But now isn't the time for get stuck on that. He sniffles a little on the remaining blood, kissing lightly at the other vampire's neck before he pulls back.
"Of course, Engel. I'm not going to leave you, I promise. Now - let's get you feeling safe, okay?"
He couldn't possibly leave Herbert's side, not now...but a thought strikes him, and he throws his focus across the castle, trying to reach Sarah.
'Sorry to bother you, but - please go to Georg, if you aren't already. Herbert is acting very strangely, and I would bet his father is, too. Keep him grounded.'
