Summary
The vampire spawn carries his dinner out of the flophouse. “I’m sure you can find another one for yourself, darling,” he says to Zyanya with a mocking grin as he walks past her. “But, just in case. For the trouble.”
He flips a coin at her and disappears with his prey. Zyanya catches it in the air with ease, but keeps her fist closed as she stares at the establishment’s door. Out of principle she always lets killers live, so they might spread her Father’s word and sacrament across the land, but… the vampire spawn owes an outstanding debt to Bhaal, having cheated death. Zyanya decides to let his own gold dictate his fate. Heads, he dies. Tails, he gets to keep unliving.

Summary
“You told me once that men die inside you. Tell me, how badly do you want to kill me right now?”
“You’re not—” Zyanya has to bite down to control the feral grunt that threatens to come out of her, like a rabid animal. Her Urge whispers temptation into her mind matching the rapid rhythm of her heartbeat. Blood. Blood. Blood. Blood. Blood. Her knife is strapped to her exposed thigh. All she has to do is reach for it. “—you’re not inside.”
“That can be easily remedied.”

Summary
Zyanya sees his dark hair in the pale moonlight, his deep eyes blacker than black. She lowers the knife. “I told Sceleritas not to tell you.”
“He didn’t, the fucking imp.”
“Then how did you find me?”
Enver draws a cocky half smile across his face. “Because I know you, my dear.”
