Cara returned the hug and smiled. He always gave the best hugs, it was one of the reason she adored him. She gave him and nod and pulled back.

"Migraine willing, I will most definitely be seeing you tonight," she said, standing on her toes to give him a brief peck on the lips and then turning to leave.


"Well, it's nice to see our Count so enjoying his time among the humans," A voice purred behind Alek once Cara was a fair distance away, a young woman who looked to be Cara's age but was really a century younger than Alek. 

Sabine was a vampress from Transylvanian, under the employ of Vlad to be his eyes and ears of the world outside the Dracula estate but she reported to Alek when needed. Usually these times entail when Vlad was about to do something no one liked or the rare check up, in this case, it was the first of the two.

"Vlad knows about you're lady friend, he's not happy either. After trashing the common room he demanded for Aconite to carry out a contract to kill her, I'm here to give you a heads up but I might be a little late. Vlad doesn't know what she looks like except she's a short redhead so he just gave the name of the college and her hair color, there's been two girls killed so far who fit that very vague description," Sabine said, pushing off from the tree she was leaning against.

Aconite was an assassin who worked for the highest bidder and once he accepted a contract, the only way to call it off was to kill him first. No one even knows what he looks like or if he's a man or a woman, all deals are brokered through middlemen or other forms of communication.
