“Does that mean we’re engaged?” Matt’s smile was
teasing.
“In a manner of speaking.”
“Seriously?”
“Blood freely given and received is a serious matter. And
there were things you said and did when I was ill that need
explanation.”
“Maybe they just need exploration, not explanation.”
Bas looked at Matthew, shocked. This boy was a surprise.
Such a surprise. Delightful. Exhilirating.
Bas pulled Matt down against him and enfolded him in
his arms, wrapping his long legs around him.
“Where do you come from, Bas? Not Spain, I gather?”
“Originally? Vampire kin all originate from a planet thirty
light years from earth, it’s called Dracule.”
Matt raised his head. “Dracule? As in Dracula? There
really was such a guy?”
“Fact and fiction blended.”
“And you came here, of all the gin joints in the universe,
you chose this little ol’ planet. Why?”
“Politics and my father and brothers. It’s complicated.”
“It always is when fathers are involved.”
“Yes, well, my family was related to the Emperor… the
Vlad—the clan leader of Dracule. My father wasn’t content
to sit on the sidelines, as a member of the Imperium—that is
the vampire council. No, he wanted to rule. He led his clan
in revolt. He failed. I was away at the time, visiting friends
in France. It’s the main reason I escaped the death
sentence—that and the intercession of powerful men in the
Imperium. I was banished here, without friends, family or
fortune. It’s called the Ban. I’m allowed a very limited
income. My mentor in the Imperium gave me money and
other things over the years, until he was discovered. He is
under Ban himself, now. So, I had to find paid work. At
Monsters.”
