was sort of shocked they'd stopped by to ask my permission about something
that was so completely none of my business. "I don't know," I finished, giving
up. "Do what you think is best. I'll back you up, whatever you decide. And I
believe my fianc├й has already agreed with my edict," I added with a sidelong
glance at Eric, who held his tongue.
"Thank you, my queen. We will be going forward, I think, but your support
means the world to us."
"Yup," Liam said.

"AndтАФ"
The sonorous, long door chime rang again.
"Excuse me, Dr. Trudeau." Eric turned to me. "Our other guests have arrived."

"Okay. And you'll, uh, make sure he doesn't hurt anybody when he's, you know,
nutty and out of his mind with blood lust?" For the next ten years?
Liam winced (well, he blinked), but Sophie soldiered on. "My queen, I have

"Thank you, Majesty. We will, Majesty."
"Liam." They shook. They were about the same size, though Liam was a lot

as a nutty thirsty ignorant young vampire and wanted to cry. But maybe it would
work out. Maybe, ten or twenty or a hundred years from now, everything would
