Chapter Sixteen

Completely beguiled, that was what Zane found himself. His sweet Ella attracted him before with her pretty looks, her waifish style attractive in a match girl kind of way. However now, with her hair elegantly coiffed, a light application of makeup, and a gown that showcased her slender, yet shapely figure, she was breathtaking.

It took quite a bit of will power not to bury his face in the smooth expanse of her exposed neck, and a moment’s trepidation flashed through him at the thought of where he planned to take her. Perhaps he should have dressed her like a nun, but the hiding of her neck would have been an insult. A slap in the face to the one he went to for aid that said ‘I don’t trust you’. Of course, he didn’t trust anybody, not even himself at times, but the fact remained, in order to play the games that his kind indulged in out of boredom, he had to put Ella at risk.

It would have been better if he’d had the opportunity to place his mark on her the night before. Then again, his inability to do so was what led on their current outing.

Damn. I only met her a few days ago and already my life is so much more complicated. But complicated or not, he would change nothing, the anticipation that coursed through his body more addictive than any human drug. For the first time since my turning, I am alive.

“Where are we going?” Ella asked, once he’d seated her next to him in his convertible.

“We are off to see an acquaintance of mine who may be able to shed some light on your voices.”

“Another vampire?” She asked this with the wide eyed excitement of a child inquiring of Santa, her naivety endearing, but oh so dangerous. Where he took her, they ate, quite literally, innocents such as her. He’d have to guard her closely.

“Yes, she is a vampire. Actually there are bound to be quite a few of my kind in attendance. And they won’t be the only legendary beings you will encounter. Quite a few fantastical people might be present. Please, keep in mind though, that no matter how benign many of them might appear, you must treat them with caution. Not all of them will treat you with the same courtesy as I. You must promise to stay close to me and not speak to anyone.”

“I’ll be glued to your side,” she solemnly promised. “Is there anything else I should know so I don’t offend anyone? As you might have guessed, I’ve never really attended any events or gatherings, unless social time at the asylum counts. I hardly think my ability to paint by number or play tic tac toe is going to come in handy.”

He laughed. “No, the games those present play will be more subtle than that, and dangerous. We enter a world where politics, relationships and perceived slights can start feuds. Where even a smile or frown at the wrong person can lead to misunderstanding and bloodshed.
