Azrael watched as the twins threw Evangeline between one another, and then as May started to strangle the human. A sharp grin appeared on both of their faces as they started to enjoy the little game there were playing at Evangelines expense, purposefully trying to bait Azrael.
He was not amused.

The words that came from Azraels mouth were calm and without volume, as if conversing normally. His posture remained stoic and relaxed. And yet the words carried a terrifying edge with them. An unmistakable hint of rage cut with a underlying sense of honesty.

[i]"I do not know why you are playing this pathetic little game, but I will not be distracted by your childish little amusements. I will not be toyed with by the likes of you. To think that a pair of incestuous vampire rejects would have the audacity to mess with me, or the company I travel with, is laughable. I told Horus that I would have no further dealings with him and his lackeys, and I warned him that dragging me into that mess of a world that he created so that he could play King, would result in a bloody mess."[/i]

Azrael never took his eyes from Raleigh as he spoke his words, he was sure the kid would not heed his words, but Azrael always liked to make sure people knew what they were getting into before he dealt with them.
His eyes narrowed.

[i]"Now, are you going to tell that whore of a sister to let the child go, or am I going to have to swap out the body she cradles with your true death corpse... Or rather, what will be left of it."[/i]

Raleigh gritted his teeth behind closed lips. A shock ran through his entire body as he heard those words. He almost backed away as he felt a sickening aura emanating from the senior vampire. He stood fast. Unwilling to back down from the challenge which he and his sister had now created. His anger rose as Azrael disgraced the twins and their master so openly, he had never heard such words uttered without the perpetrator soon to face death at the hands of the all-mighty Horus. Whether he would rather not face this Vampire or not was now out of the question, he had insulted everything that Raleigh held dear, and this Vampire would pay, Raleigh would reclaim his broken honour and make Azrael pay for the words he chose.

He slipped an ebony knife from a holster on his back, and brandished it at the older Vampire.

[i]"May, take that little shit to Horus and tell him to make good use of her, and tell him to leave me a piece of the action. And tell him I'll bring him this one too..."[/i]

He gestured at Azrael with the knife, shining green in the light.

[i]"... Tell him, I'll be bringing an old friend to come and watch the party."[/i]

He yawned loudly as he sat on his cold stone throne as his head rested his fist, his arm propped up on the arm rest. 

It had been several years since he had come up to his northern lair. But only a few nights ago he had woken up from a night of heavy debauchery and decided that it was time for a change of scenery, he had forgotten just how beautiful the snow was when it covered the ground.

Before he was about to retire to his bed chamber he was confronted by one of his favourite vassals, May, seemingly without her brother. Which was odd, they never went anywhere without one another. Their 'forbidden' relationship was one of the most interesting things about them.
With her was a small girl. Horus' mouth grew wide as he recognised the child. It seemed May had brought him quite the elegant little gift.
May frog marched the girl infront of Horus and stood her there, both hands on the little girls shoulders.

"Well well, May. What is this you have brought your master?"
