What fun she was having, this bold cat, making herself quite comfortable in his arms. Young and impetuous, that was what she tasted like; she was not small, but it was that taste which made him think her a kitten. She flirted shamelessly, the kind of behavior that would have her labeled a tart in the land that he had left. He quite preferred the way they did things where she was from, if this was acceptable behavior.
But maybe it wasn't. She had that thrill of the forbidden dancing around in her, after all. Perhaps she was using this masquerade to misbehave. What fun.
«I know what I might offer you,» he said, low and with a knowing glint in his eye. «But what sort of prize would tempt you, I wonder? Surely you have no need of treasures. You have me at a loss, Julianna, when I possess nothing within these walls but my own skin.» He smiled as her hand left his shoulder, tapping against his ominous pin. «You flatter me, Kitten,» he purred, the irony not lost on him. He did so adore to be flattered. «For your mercy, I shall wait until later to embarrass you, as is your preference.»
There was no one at his own estate whose concern particularly concerned him. It had been centuries since anyone had any kind of authority over him. Elijah had been gone for a few of them, and it was likely to be a while more before he returned. There was Alisdair, of course; but he had a wanderlust in him, and he too was unlikely to return in René's absence. Assuming that he was gone at all, assuming that he was not dreaming. There was no one who might miss him but lovers or servants, and he did not particularly care for the opinions of either. Most of those lovers would be discarded soon, anyway. In the light of this particular jewel, he was realizing just how much many of them bored him. Passingly pleasurable meals, and little more.
