    Summary

    “Look at me.”

    Melinoë does. Her face is half obscured; she goes to brush her hair away, but Hecate grabs her wrist and brings it down below the surface. Presses it to her sensitive inner thigh, and leaves it there. That same hand drags her nails—sharp, sharp nails—up her waist, her ribcage, and eventually rests at her collarbone. Firm, deep, grounding pressure.

    She’s breathtaking. She yearns to say it. Instead, her gaze darts to her lips. The same shade as her own.

    Quietly, she asks, “What is the nature of a relationship between two immortals?”

    “You are not immortal, Melinoë. And I am far, far older than you.”

    After a rough night, Melinoë joins her Headmistress for a drink at the springs.

    Summary

    "I know what a breakup looks like," Daniel says. "The better question is, why are you coming to me about it? I'm the one who broke up your little sham."

    "This is what humans do, don't they?" Armand asks, letting his voice drop. "Crashing on their friends' couches when there's a blip in their romances?"

    "Except we're not friends. We're actually very much not friends." Daniel shrugs, as if it's all the same to him. "And I can't imagine the great vampire Armand deigning himself to sleep on my fucked-up sofa. That thing's been here since the nineties."

    "Well," Armand only says. "I saw you have a guest bedroom."

    Summary

    The flash of her teeth, dark red with her own essence, is utterly perverse. It should make Lara recoil, or provoke some sort of prey instinct. It doesn’t. Carmilla’s eyes are piercing, pupil pinpricks, glowing pools in the setting sun. Her golden hair refracts like a halo. She's a paradox. A leech.

    “You’re a creation,” Lara stops, starts, continues. “We need to go."

    Carmilla pulls the puncture deeper into her mouth, humming. Her cheeks hollow as she swallows, sucks harder, and swallows again. Time seeps away.

    “Yet you grow so warm.”

    Or — Miss Fontaine has kept Lara away for a terribly long time.
