"What the fuck?" Louis growled out, though he kept his tone low, and didn't turn around which showed that he'd picked up the urgency in Dante's voice and hadn't ruled his words out of hand. "How could anyone get in here undetected, and what is one vampire against an entire coven anyway? He's no threat to us."

"He's not a vampire, Louis. He's Vârcolac...and he's feral. In his sane state he could wipe out half of this coven...I don't even want to begin to imagine what he'll do in his feral state. If you have ever trusted me, let me deal with this my way. I can reason with him, convince him that we know nothing of his parents' disappearance. We can all come out of this alive if you allow me to take the lead." Dante could see the rage and denial begin to cross the coven leader's face, and he felt the first tendrils of real fear that he'd experienced in countless centuries. If he couldn't get Louis to see sense, there was a good chance he would die this day, and there would be no one to ta

    "Murder somebody? How much was their DNA worth?" I postulated. "I pay the cost, or somebody pays it for me. You are calling me naïve? I'm not murdering somebody. I'm repossessing their DNA. Mr. DeYoung, I'm not a lawyer, so I am not approaching this from a limited field of vision like you are. I live in the World.""Oddly enough, I've had some recent encounters with real slavery and that has convinced me that I'll go down standing up, thank you very much," I grinned. "In case that was misconstrued; my DNA is mine, no legal precedent will change that and I'm more than willing to put bodies in the ground to keep it so.""You sound like an anarchist," Mr. Cherrie chimed in."Nope. I'm independent-minded. There is a difference," I indicated. "Just like you, anarchists don't want to let me be me either.""Laws exist for a reason," Nicole chastised me.What she was really saying was 'you are here for a reason and it isn't entertaining my co-workers'."This is the point where the smart man g

    He snorted, countering with 'If you were an Arab, they'd shoot you.' Not to be outdone, 'I'd claim to be a Syrian anti-government protester – you know, because we all look alike to these Caucasians'. We laughed for a bit then he said he had a younger sister back in the homeland. I insisted I was immoral – a wicked man.'Was I religious?' 'Only when it suited my purposes.' 'Would I consider converting to Sunni Islam?' 'Only if the girl was cute enough.' He showed me her picture – dammit, she had a really beautiful face. I got her name, his name and the name of his mosque. I considered it. Yahweh, Christ, Bacchus (wine, an orgy and 'bull' testicles – long story) and Jehovah all had reasons to barbeque my butt already.Why not add Allah to the mix, besides it being an incredibly stupid thing to do for a man in constant mortal peril like me? In theory, three of the four definitely had the possibility to be the same Omniscient and Omnipotent Galactic Being so the odds were I wouldn't get t

    I doubt he complained, or even thought to complain. Who would have taken his place? A smaller sister, aunt, or daughter? Had other males objected? Sure, the battle line in Amazon tactics was not the place of glory. The striking arm were the horse-riders. Countless times adversaries had spent the last minutes of their lives with the echoes of horses, hooves and female Amazon war cries seemingly all around them.Some wise old dead fucker once said 'defeat starts in the mind'. I wholeheartedly believed in that – except my version was 'having sex with me starts with my insidious nature'."Defeat starts in the mind," I stared intently into Oneida's eyes. Love poetry is a matter of emotional context, not actual words.I pulled Oneida to me, letting her straddle my lap because I desperately wanted her to understand my tortured soul. Grinding her vulva against my hard-on was totally accidental, as was our renewed French kiss and me grabbing two handfuls of her ass. There was no rushing of thi

    "Do you think that connection is possible?" St. Marie posed. She meant 'did I believe I had a tie to man who lived 2694 years ago' to the point we both fought with twin axes."I don't want to," I sighed. "I want to live in a sane, scientific world that explains all this.""Go," St. Marie commanded. Then, "Will Constanza regain the sight in her left eye?""No," Pamela shook her head. "She ignored the lesson and the warning. Next time, this will not be an issue." It took my exiting the building to understand what Pamela was saying was 'you won't find the body'. I also realized that Oneida was absent today – groan."Cáel, why don't you come home with me tonight?" Daphne offered. She was proffering her house's protection as well."I'm okay," I grinned. "I'm going to keep to my old schedule as much as possible.""Aren't you worried?" Paula asked."Worried about what? I don't think any of the other Houses are going to kill me until I really screw up," I snorted."He has no idea?" Pamela sco

    (Later Friday)"Having a bad day?" Pamela stopped our lesson."I apologize. I am having trouble focusing on the lesson today," I sighed."Let us see if we can handle this dilemma," Pamela took two steps back, signaling the end of this round of physical training. "In my experience, most internal issues can be resolved within five minutes.""This should be fun then," I smirked. Pamela smirked as well. "I was confirmed at this morning's emergency Council meeting to be the sole heir, thus leader, of House Ishara." With a slight dip of the head, Pamela acknowledged I'd surprised her. "I chose to stand for House Ishara – literally. I will not take the seat, or vote. I will hold the place for my first daughter of the Host.""That last bit was your decision and your decision alone?" Pamela queried. I nodded. "Good, you gave up nothing you could hold onto while gaining honor for the practical choice, Cáel. What are your numbers now?""Three," I answered. Pamela's look demanded an explanation.

    "Buffy, you are the most amazon-Amazon I know," I told her. "You like Helena and she said nice stuff about Daphne which showed her character, so I chose her next.""Hey, this means I can finally slap Fabiola around," Buffy's eyes grew bright."Which reminds me - can I get any volunteers for Old Kingdom Hittite lessons for these two," I begged my 'new hire' companions."I'll take two nights a week," Daphne offered."I'll take one night," Paula added."I'll take a fourth," Violet completed the set."Damn it," Desiree cursed. "This means Buffy must be taught the Prayer of the Ancestors.""You are right," Buffy gasped. "I accompany Cáel to Council meetings now.""One note - I don't vote," I informed them. "I made that decision. House Ishara has never had a male vote for it and I'm keeping that tradition. I can speak, but not vote. When my daughter comes of age, she will have full rights."Desiree, Buffy and Helena were confused. Daphne, Violet and Paula, on the other hand, were enraptured
