‘Sure, I’ll just take the word of a vampire.’ I snarled. ‘I’m not that thick headed.’
*
‘You got goo’d.’ He guessed excessively well.
I laughed a little. ‘I got goo’d.’
*
‘Didn’t think I knew?’ I sipped the wine again, glass have empty now. ‘I do know, so get your frigging fangs away from me before I have to go all Buffy on you.’
*
The door closed on me, leaving the vampire out, I smiled and dug around my clutch for the essential, pushed them in the jean pockets and stuffed the clutch in the back of my jeans. Shit - why did I have to pick the bedazzled clutch? I was going to have an impeded flower sticking out of ass by the end of the day.
*
Sexist pig, I murmured under my breath, heading down the stairs too to catch up.
‘I heard that.’ His voice was tight.
‘I knew you would.’ I smiled at his back.
*
Now if I were a mystical unidentified ripple in the air, where would I be?
The look the vampire gave me was nothing short of a mental snort - which ticked me off a little.
*
He reached for my throat, well as he was shorter than I was, aim went to my boobs.
The vampire snapped his arm and broke it before it reached me. ‘Tsk, tsk, no touching.’ He cocked up a grin and bared his teeth.
*
‘Bite me and die.’ I cocked the trembling gun to his jaw.
*
‘You should see this, it’s like... I don’t know it’s a nature reserve of some sort. We aren’t in Kansas
‘I distinctly remember leaving Helsinki
‘It’s from a movie.’
*
‘You are gorgeous.’ I inhaled and looked to my other side, there was a man, beautiful, fair, very gently sinking a needle in and out of my shoulder. I laughed. Darn - I think I’m high.
‘Yes, we gave you something for the pain.’ She answered to my thought.
*
‘Elfings... ‘I steadied myself. ‘Elf twins.’ Now it came out right.
*
‘Scoot.’ I pushed my legs out of the bed and had Aleister helping me up. ‘Scoot means, out of the way, not please help me.’ I tried to being polite, but it’s not really my way.
*
She left and I became more aware of the blond elf, I turned to him. ‘I have no shoes.’ I frowned.
He smiled wickedly. ‘I could carry you.’
Was I being hit on by an elf? Well this day just kept getting odder by the minute. ‘I could walk.’ I said grimly and gathered my hems - mental sigh at that - and started out of the room.
*
Aleister smirked at the vampire before walking away.
‘Arrogant bastard isn’t he.’ It was a statement, not a question.
*
He snorted. ‘Just want make sure you are all well.’ His hands slid over my shoulder, feeling the wound.
‘I’m good, potent elf remedies.’ I wiggled to get free, his grip was iron like. ‘You know I’m starting to resent this, everyone is stronger than me. I want my gun.’
*
He looked at me worried. ‘But you are still healing, my Angel.’
‘Drop the possessive or I’ll swear I’ll smack you around.’ I heard Micael laugh, and regretted scowling at Aleister. ‘I’m sorry. It has been a long day.’
*
‘People, just stop calling me with endearments.’ I stated my command to the world, sure that it wouldn’t be heard regardless. ‘I suppose you won’t let me have the pants and tunic combination?’ I eyed the lavender and blue silk gown.
‘You suppose right.’ He said releasing my hand and starting to undress himself.
*
Must not imagine Micael, the vampire remember that, naked. His laugh was light, and slightly husky. I heard him brush off his shirt, I focused my eyes on the carving of an angel. Long nose, long twisting hair, zipper - jesus, stop listening - flowing gown, no wings, I wonder how I knew it was angel then. Maybe it was portraying an elf, they sure were pretty enough to be considered angels.
