EKALIS RAVENDARK SAT down in the soft Italian leather chair next to his desk. It wasn’t cold outside, but he kept the fire roaring in the fireplace. Reminded him of when he was a young boy and how he used to sit in his father’s office and talked with him about life and power. Now, in his own house, he made sure when the contractors came up with the plans; he wanted his office just like his father. Kind of an ode to the past.

He opened the bottom drawer and pulled out two glasses and a glass carafe of dark red. He poured himself and his daughter a glass for whenever she came in. He knew she would come. Of all his brood, she was the most like him. That’s why he had to have the talk with her soon. His wife said it was unnecessary, but he had a feeling. Their four children before at Zazi’s age manifested nothing but deep in his soul, he always knew his Zazi bear was special. She was bound for greatness, and he didn’t know if it was for the good or bad.

Soon as he finished pouring the glasses, the door to his study opened and Zazi stepped through.

“Close the door,” he said to her. “You’re just in time.” He pushed a filled glass towards the chair opposite of him and waited until she sat down. His daughter glanced at the glass of wine. He knew she was curious. The wine was the perfect bait.

“You never offer me wine, Dad. Mom will kill you and me both if she knew I was drinking underage.”

“Your mom isn’t here is she?”

“Well... no.”

Ekalis lifted the glass to his lips and winked. “Then I suggest you drink up.”

Zazi knew a gift horse whenever she saw one and took this opportunity to drink Red with her father. She lifted the weighted glass to her lips and took a sip. The liquid hit her tongue and flavors exploded all in her mouth. She almost moaned at how good it was. Sun ripened berries, hints of plum, and just the right notes of some type of spice. She took a few more sips before setting the glass back on the desk.

Her father watched her, amusement oozed off him in waves. “Glad I was able to break your first taste of Red with you.”

“It’s soo good.” Zazi couldn’t help herself and picked up her glass again, this time taking a huge swallow.

“Be careful. It’s rather strong. It’s not your normal wine. This is mage wine. The finest out there.”

“What happens if I drink too much?” She asked as she downed another gulp.

A chuckle from her father filled the space between them. “You will be drunk off your ass and your mom would be ripping me a new one. You know she’s a stickler for law and rules.”

That was enough to douse her. Zazi sat her glass back down. “You’re right.”

“So what have you been up to? It’s been too long. Your
