She glanced at me. “What?”

“You’re completely naked.”

“Oh.”

“Why...?”

“Convenience?”

“How is stripping naked while working in a file room...convenient?”

“Did you find out who Damian is? I’ve cleaned the account of some executive of Pedigree while you were away.”

“The dog food people?”

“Yep.”

“Oh. Well Felicity may have a lead for us. We’re to meet her upstairs.”

Kat closed her laptop and stood up, stretching as if doing so was the most luxurious experience known to mankind.

I had no choice but to go to her. She was, quite frankly, the most beautiful creature I had ever beheld. “You’re very manipulative. Did you know that, Sweets?”

“Aw. Don’t make me blush.”

“I’ll drink from you now.”

“You need an invitation for that, don’t you?”

I slid my hands over the soft curves of her flesh, grabbing her from behind and squeezing hard. “Give it to me.”

“After.”

“After what?”

“We find Damian.” She tilted her chin so the throbbing veins of her perfectly pale neck were exposed. “And then...You can have your drink.”

“I’m not your junkie, Sweets.”

She backed away and bent slowly while she reached for her skirt and blouse. “Not yet, son of Dracula. Not yet.”

Episode 9: Koi

I need to talk to you for a moment. Yes, you. I need to talk to you. I think we need to change our strategy here. With regards to Sweets. Because of course we can’t make her our immortal mate. That’s always going to be a no. But...in the short term...

In the short term, she’s got that sweetness to her blood and the curves to the hips hidden beneath that damned pleated skirt. We could keep tabs on her, is all I’m saying. For a while. That’s all. So that’s just a note I’m making to you.

“Elevator’s are slow,” Kat complained, her arms crossed.

“Vampiric royalty does not take stairs.”

“Couldn’t you slink through some shadows or something?”

“Not in the building. Or I’d never do any work. They like to keep tabs on me.”

“Your vampire brethren? The ones who banished you?”

“Yes.”
