Gabriel watched as the three prisoners were carried, bound, from his foyer and into the courtyard beyond. The vampire and dragon escort headed off his estate, taking the prisoners toward the dungeons as promised. That was a relief, at least, because if they had been taken upstairs, it meant they would be drained of blood and converted to undead on the spot. The bitch had kept her part of the bargain.

Ephephany left at the same time, taking the road to her estate, escorted by two more Black Guards. He had tried to signal to her during the meeting, shaking his head subtly at certain times, trying to flash her certain micro expressions that were contradictory to his words, but she didn’t seem to get it. The dim illumination of the foyer hadn’t helped matters, no doubt, but the vampires preferred the light levels that way.

He made his way back toward his room, as commanded by the evil bitch. He wondered if she really intended to execute Gwendoline tomorrow. He thought she’d be thrilled to have yet another form of leverage over him. Something that would require him to obey her instructions to the letter, without any sort of drug. Then again, he never really knew what that vampire witch was thinking.

Gwendoline must hate me right now.

He sighed. Medeia had told him to act his part, and to act it well. If he didn’t speak the vampire witch’s commands as relayed through the headset word for word, and if he didn’t embrace those commands with gusto, Medeia promised to execute Gwendoline on the spot. At least now he had until nine a.m. tomorrow morning to try to find a way to rescue her. Or maybe he wouldn’t have to. Maybe Gwendoline would figure out how to save herself. She was always a resourceful one. Or perhaps Jett really was among those Gwendoline had smuggled into her estate. If anyone could determine a way to save their sister, it was him. Assuming Jett got away from the raid that Medeia eventually sent.

He removed his headset and scratched at his bare neck. Medeia had finally taken off the collar. She drained his blood at least once daily, keeping his strength low, so the collar was entirely redundant, especially considering he couldn’t transform into his dragon in Midnight anyway. The collar simply brought up too many questions when she needed to parade him around on social occasions, like just now.

When he reached his room, he saw that Medeia was waiting there, lounging naked on the bed. Though she was beautiful, Gabriel was repulsed.

“It’s time for my nightly feed, my dragon pet,” Medea said seductively. “Tonight, give yourself to me freely. Soften your skin and I promise your sister will not suffer tomorrow. Her death will be quick.”

“Spare her and I’ll think about it,” Gabriel said.

“No,” Medeia said. “I want her to die. Your people need to see her death. It will help break their spirits, and make them all the more pliable to what I plan to offer them.
