queenЕ the new queenЕ she'll be the worst of us all."
"How come?"
"Because the vampire she defeatedЧNostroЧwas really really bad."
"Really really bad?" he teased.
She shook her head at him, unsmiling. "I don't have words to explain it to you,
to make you understand how bad. And he was in power for hundreds of years, and
with vampires, the older you are, the more power you gain. He was considered
completely unstoppable, for centuries.
"And she killed him, Daniel. She justЧjust woke up one night and killed him and
took his seat of power and there was nothing more to be done. No warning, no
formal declaration of challenges, nothing. It was like she rose one day and
said, 'I think I'll kill the old vampire king,' and then it was done.
"And to do that, she had to be more powerful and more wicked andЧandЧ" She
paused, remembering something she'd heard, a scrap on the wind, a whisper. "They
call her Elizabeth, the One. The most powerful vampire in two thousand years.
And she's fated to rule at least two thousand more."
"Wow," he said respectfully.
"So I strongly urge you to reconsider this notion you've gotten aboutЧ"
"No."
"Idiot," she muttered.
"Ah, but I'm your idiot, bay-bee. And howcum you don't reconsider?"
"What do you mean?"
"Why go see this Liz the One at all? Let's hang out, have some more fun."
She blinked, caught completely flat-footed by his offer. "That's a niceЕ a
wonderful offerЕ but this is something I have to do. It's like her name is in my
head, all the time. Like she's calling me to her." She shuddered. "I imagine
there's thousands of us on the way to Minnesota these days."
"Talk about a creep-out. Come take a shower with me."
"Why?"
He made an exasperated sound. "Because."
"We're wasting valuable driving time."
"We've got the whole damn night, and just half an hour to go."
"Fine," she grumbled, and rose from the bed, but secretly she was glad; glad to
keep half an hour between her and the queen.

THE shower was delightful. She'd forgotten. Daniel was all slippery hands and
long limbs and broad pecs and the water beat down on them and then he kissed her
and one thing led to another and he was bleeding againЧ
"S-sorry."
"Shut up," he groaned, "and move a bit to your left."
Чand then they were writhing together beneath the spray, and at the height of
her pleasure she grabbed the shower curtain, which let go with a pok-pok-pokking
sound and tumbled her onto the bath mat.
"Wow," Daniel panted, peering down at her. "Just like the shower scene from
Psycho. Except a lot sexier."
