IIRC, Kiera gave Vlad the vial several years prior, while he still owned the restaurant. [Briefly - she secretly paid taxes, so he "would owe her a favor" and when he asked if could do her a favor, and she produced the vial for him to keep for 'not long, about 20 years, or so'.] Although, the idea that having the vial of goddess blood might somehow dangerous to hold for Kiera/Orca spoiler, and the Jenoine connection is interesting...
