Henri nodded at Jonathan. "The pleasure has been mine, for watching you manage your requiem tonight has been fascinating. I would welcome the chance to meet again, but I am afraid that you would find me most distasteful. Although, I might add, you would more quickly come to respect what you are than stumbling about each night thinking you know it all."

The vampire walked confidently past Jonathan and stopped in the hallway. "I will be at the meeting. The word among our kind is that tomorrow's rassemblement may be the most important in the decade. Au revoir, mon ami; I must leave, as I believe I have a fair young lass waiting for me to seduce and slaughter tonight."

Jonathan stood at Eric's window, listening to the young man's slow steady breathing, and waited until he saw Henri walk out the front door, down the path and off down the street. Then he waited until the feeling of unease had completely dissipated.

Once it was gone he made sure that both Eric and Lisa really were still alive before leaving himself, through the backyard and over the fence. He didn't think Henri would be waiting for him, but he wasn't going to take any chances.

Once he got to Howell Drive he flagged down a cab and made his way back to the Haven. He'd had enough excitement for one night, and tomorrow's meeting promised to be even more surprising.

Softly.
Much softer than any client had fondled her before. Gentle even.
Khalida’s eyes slowly opened to the flickering illumination of candle light as she tried to recall which client she was last with. She had never actually slept with a client before; always she had cleaned herself once they were sated and the client sleeping, dressed, and returned home.

As she surveyed her surroundings to get her bearings, an intense hunger began to make itself known, replacing the surprise she felt at finding herself in her own bed. Then she felt the soft stroke of the hand along her temple again, as well as the gentle fondle of her breasts. “Ah, sweet one, “she heard Tatiana murmur. “Forgive me. You slept hard after your embrace and our…celebration after. I wanted to be here to welcome you in to your new life, so let myself back in after the sun went down. Seeing you resting so peacefully, I wanted to be with you again.” Tatiana’s hand lifting from Khalida’s breast, she brought her lips to it and suckled.

Heat spread through Khalida instantly. “What joy!” she murmured, arching her back into the suction. Memories of the night before came flooding back, and she smiled to think Tatiana wanted her as much as she wanted Tatiana. But the hunger she felt was growing insistent. At that very instant, Tatiana lifted her head and gazed at her, knowingly. Wriggling up Khalida’s body, she gave her a deep kiss; probing deep with her tongue and drawing Khalida’s into her own mouth. Then she withdrew and again used a fang to slash her wrist. Khalida couldn’t help it. The welling nectar she saw on Tatiana’s wrist called to her. Extending her tongue, she lapped at it, the sweetness of it exploding throughout her senses. Drawing back, she looked again at Tatiana, afraid to be too forward.

“Khalida, drink. I am here for you and will teach you to fend for yourself. But you are hungry now and I am here, willing to feed you. Go on…drink.”

Closing her eyes, Khalida again put her mouth to the wound on Tatiana’s wrist and drank her fill, her gratitude for her love increasing every moment. Tatiana found ways to enjoy Khalida’s feeding as well, her other hand finding spots that mixed the feeding with orgasmic pleasure, over and over. Khalida found herself feeling intensely energized from both, and hoped Tatiana would want her, always.

Several hours later, both women sated and enjoying holding each other, Khalida heard an email come in on her computer. “I should check that,” she whispered. “Apparently I’ve ignored my clients far longer than I intended. I know I told you I was a student, but I do need to earn a living and break free of my father’s support…”

Tatiana raised a finger to Khalida’s lips and silenced her. “I know who you are and what you do. I was drawn to you long before you ever became aware of my presence at the KARAMAH meetings. If you still desire to assist me…” Khalida instantly responded, “In any way…” “…I think we could work well together to help women within Lordenshaw through your clients. Come, give me a last kiss, and see to your business. I will see myself out.”

“Will I see you again soon?” Khalida asked, already longing to be back in her arms.

“It is my intent to begin teaching you self-sufficiency, sweet one. We will have time after your and my own business tonight. Do not concern yourself; I will find you.” Drawing the young Arab into her arms, the Russian kissed her deeply then gently broke away, dressed and let herself out of the apartment.

                                                                                                                        ***

Khalida called up her email, tsking at the missed opportunities from the previous night. But her emails showed her absence only made her clients beg for her availability ever more. Reading through, she made her decision who she would accompany this night and replied to his private address for just her communications. Within seconds a response was returned saying he would dump the woman he had contacted when she hadn’t replied right away and meet her in their usual spot. He couldn’t wait to see her again. Khalida’s countenance took on a predatory smile. Perhaps she would get more from him than just a physical need, a planted suggestion, and her extremely high fee…

Several hours later, Khalida again grabbed her clutch and locked her door behind her. As she headed out to the garage towards her car, her tongue licked her fangs. She was glad she had her fill from Tatiana earlier. Her body instantly responding to the thought of Tatiana, she made note of that and filed it for use with her clients. Tonight a new sensation awaited her client. She couldn’t wait to try it on him, she thought as she drove to where her client awaited her.

Khalida's car pulls up outside a tall apartment building a few blocks south of Low Street metro station. The building was impressively modern, but it appeared to lack a decent security system. Most of the apartments seemed to be occupied, as they emitted warm light and the sounds of family life. A low-set brick wall, covered in graffiti, surrounded the building, complete with a baroque, iron gate.

In the penthouse apartment one of the windows lit up. A silhouette of a man appeared in the window and then vanished a few seconds later. Khalida then saw a green light appear on the intercom at the gate.

Khalida starts this chapter with 6 vitae.

Checking her lipstick in the rear view mirror as she rolled her window down, Khalida looked toward the glowing green light.

"Hi, this is Kali. I have an appointment."

A tinny voice replies. "Ah, welcome. I was hoping you would be able to make it, my beautiful angel. Please come up to the penthouse."

"Angel?" Khalida thought to herself, with a feral grin. "How deliciously ironic."

The iron gate slowly opened, and Khalida deftly maneuvered the car into the covered space that had been reserved for her ever since her first visit here. As she reached over for her clutch and cloak, she turned smiling towards her window as the basement doorman peered in then grinned at her as he opened her door for her and extended a hand to help her rise.

"Good evening, madam. It is a pleasure to see you, as always," he said with a slight bow as she let go his hand, pocketing the twenty she had pressed in to it. "Do you have your key? Or shall I call the penthouse lift for you?"

"One day I shall come while you are attending others, and will have use for my key, Robert," Khalida laughingly replied. "But as long as you are available..," said as she lightly placed her hand on the proffered forearm. It did no harm to play up to the hired help; perhaps at some point she may need their good graces towards her. She noted Robert's posture improve as he escorted her to the private lift, insert a key from his ring, and kept her company until the doors opened and she stepped inside. As she turned back towards the lift's doors, she saw Robert stepping away to greet some residents of the building who had arrived.

The lift's doors closing, Khalida relaxed a little during the brief ride upwards. "So far, all is the same," she thought, arranging her cloak to most effectively conceal her garb until the proper moment. The lift coming to a halt on the top floor, it's doors slowly opened and Khalida stepped out into the lavish foyer of the penthouse suite, her smile and gaze currently only focused on her client awaiting her.

The elevator door opened, allowing Khalida a view of the room beyond. It was dimly lit, so that it took a few moments for her to appreciate what was before her. The floors were covered in soft carpet with Turkish coverings placed here and there. Wooden tiles covered the walls, and expensive wall hangings brought warm life to the light brown surfaces. Three comfortable looking lounges draped in velvet facing glass doors leading to the balcony.

However, blocking the view were two men. Khalida recognised her client immediately. He was a short, balding man in his middle forties, and dressed in jeans and a deep-blue t-shirt. Jeremy Leiman, she recalled. His companion was dressed more formally, in a black suit and red tie. Grey hair was swept back from his high forehead. Steel-grey eyes stared at her without a hint of lust, but intense nonetheless.

"Miss K," Jeremy beamed, almost proudly. "How I have missed you. You look . . .different but still ravishing. This is my friend, Thompson. He would like to watch." Jeremy smiled with lust in his eyes.

Khalida glanced towards the formally dressed stranger briefly, then at first appeared to dismiss him. Her whole business was about making her client look good, whether at a function or more...intimately was not her concern.

However, her client needed to know she was above such overt manipulation.

"Jeremy, my sweet. It is good to see you again," she said sultrily, approaching him. "No function tonight for us to attend?" she asked, as she draped one arm over his shoulder and leaned in close as if to nuzzle his neck. Lowering her voice to a bare whisper so that only he would hear, she placed her lips against his ear, "Such deviation is a thrilling surprise, but should be arranged in advance, darling. Due to the spontaneity of your request, your fee tonight has tripled. I’ll expect a text verifying the transfer while Thompson and I make small talk."

Drawing away, she turned her gaze upon Thompson and overtly looked him over. Sashaying past him, she allowed her cloak to reveal a glimpse of what lay beneath, then headed over to the glass doors which led to the balcony. There she awaited the text...or Leiman’s refusal.

Leiman turned around and started speaking with Thompson. The pair appeared deep in conversation, and at times he looked at Khalida with hunger in his eyes. Eventually, his associate sat down on one of the couches lazily, a leg crossed over another and stroking his impassive face.

Leiman walked up to her coyly. "Well, Thompson said he'd pay the extra, which is nice." He laughed briefly before continuining. "But he just wants to watch, Miss K. And do not be worried, he will not be doing anything . . . uh . . . sexual."

Leiman turned his head and looked at Thompson. He then looked at Khalida. "He likes to . . . watch."

Kali assessed Leiman coolly, than slowly withdrew her cell and tapped it gently on her palm, one impeccably arched eyebrow raising ever higher as she let her icy glance begin to cool his ardor. She knew she was taking a risk, and may wind up leaving with nothing for her time. But better that than to go through the performance and still receive nothing more in the end.

Still subtly tapping her cell as she awaited a verifying text, she moved closer to Leiman, allowing her cloak to drop to the floor and allowing him full view of what he desired. Placing her fingertip at the collar of his t-shirt, she drew it gently down, then let it spring back up as she traced her nail upwards along his neck and jawline to his lips. His mouth dropping open slightly, she let him draw her fingertip in and start sucking on it. As he did so, his eyes closing and head turning to begin kissing her palm, she purred to him, "Once the transaction is verified, then your wild ride will begin in earnest, my sweet."

Leiman glanced up at this, his eyes full of hunger and desire. As he reached towards her waist to draw her closer, Kali deftly moved aside. "Once the transaction is verified..." she again purred to him. She shot a glance towards Thompson, watching to see if he withdrew his own mobile and if he already knew the fund transfer information.

Leiman smiled nervously as he pulled out his mobile. "Ah, of course. One moment, Miss K." He walked away and faced the window, his reflection revealing his earnest.

Thompson leaned back further into the couch, and stared at Khalida cooly. A few moments later, he held a mobile in a hand and was pressing buttons without looking down; his dispassionate eyes were fixed on her. He then stood up lackadaisicallly and proferred the mobile, its screen facing Khalida. "The funds should be in your account, Mistress K," he uttered smoothly. A moment later, she received two text messages, informing her that two sums of money had been payed into her account.

Leiman swaggered forward with a foolish grin. "I want you to show me that I am your master, Miss K. Get in the master bedroom, and on your knees. Beg for it, like a crack-addicted whore."

Kali's brows rose slightly at this request, then she again shot a quick glance towards Thompson. This request was unlike anything Leiman had ever wanted before; he much preferred to be dominated, than to do the dominating. Most of her clients did; they wielded enough power in their daily lives. The relinquishing of control to her, and her use of that power over them, was what tended to bring them crawling back for more. "There's a first time for everything," she silently thought to herself, as she made her way in to the master bedroom.

Ignoring the rustle of movement behind her, Kali placed her belongings on the bureau and let her hair down, allowing it to fall freely around her face. She shook her head to cause it to become even more disheveled, removed the bedspread and quilt from the luxurious king size bed and placed them neatly on the night table in the corner of the room, then applied some self warming KamaSutra Intensifying gel in the appropriate locations. Her thoughts briefly drifting to Tatiana as the warmth began to excite her nether regions, she brought her attention back to the here and now.

Crawling under the top sheet, Kali leaned back on to her knees and faced the bedroom door, draping the sheet around her and wriggling beneath it. Unsure her client really wished her to be submissive, or if he was putting on a "show" for his guest, she started on middle ground, to give him the option of letting her take control. "Jeremy," she called out, dangling a set of nipple clamps in front of the draping sheet. "Now, where do these go?" she asked innocently, turning her most beguiling look upon him and pouting quizzically.

-1 Vitae for infusing life into dead organs.

Jeremy Leiman swaggered over to the bed and faced her, slowly taking off his shirt and smiling stupidly. Khalida heard a chair being pulled across the carpet of the bedroom, and she saw at the corner of her vision Thompson placing a chair opposite her. He sat down calmly and crossed his legs, while interlacing his fingers.

Leiman had finished taking his clothes off. "Well," he breathed. "I have to admit that I have missed you." He grabbed her head, his fingers curling around her thick, dark hair, and pulled her towards his hips. "This is what you deserve you dirty thing."

Khalida felt something reach out, seeking. A faint presence sifting the air and ghosting through their bodies. It recoiled from her, like a thought repulsed by some black memory, and then focused on Leiman. He let go of her hair briefly and moaned. The strange presence then faded, and Leiman resumed.

Khalida's eyes, having stayed opened while Leiman ravished her lips to focus on both men in the room as best she could, widened even more. "What the hell was that?" she silently thought to herself, having never felt anything like it before. Drawing upon her innate empathy, she attuned her senses as best she could to any sign of it occurring again, while drawing upon her expression and political savvy to play Leiman in to believing she was fully concentrating on him. She had no doubt whatever it was she had felt was not fooled by her actions, and her curiosity was piqued to see in what other ways it may attempt to manipulate Leiman. This whole situation was totally unlike anything Leiman had ever wanted from her, and it dawned on her that he was yet indulging his desire to be controlled. However, instead of his usual practice of being controlled by her, he was cooperating with something...else.

"All is not the same after all," she realized, building upon her former thought in the elevator earlier. "Perhaps it will never be again..."

With that, she tried to appear to turn her attention fully upon Leiman to learn just how different he had become. "Jeremy, take me in any way you wish," she encouraged him. "Show me what you got...master."

Leiman moaned aloud, but it seemed more like a moan of victory than pleasure. He stepped back and looked at Khalida for a few moments, smiling widely with hooded eyes. Suddenly, he launched himself against her and pushed her on to her back. Both hands grasped her wrists as his body lay down on top of her. He was breathing rapidly.

"You're mine. Say, 'You are my master'. Say it," he breathed. "Say it now!"

Khalida felt the presence again. It was much stronger, like a ghostly presence occupying space. Before it was simply something faint and ephemeral, possibly a figment of her imagination. Now it was a force that could not be imagined away or ignored. It loomed over them both, but seemed to be focused on Leiman. He shuddered as he breathed rapidly.

Thompson stood up.

Khalida's head jerked in Thompson's direction. She was not yet concerned about Leiman's actions towards her; she had played submissive before in her work with others, and he had yet to actually hurt her. But Thompson was an unknown, as was the strange presence she sensed. Her gaze narrowed as she spat out, "You paid to watch, nothing more," in Thompson's direction, not knowing if he was the source of the unknown presence or not. Then she looked back at Leiman, determined to live up to her reputation and earn the payment she insisted upon earlier.

"You are my Master," she purred back to him, watching him intently as her words hung in the air between them. His rapid breathing could be the result of excitement, but she doubted he would be able to perform if his physical reaction continued like this. She felt a rising hunger as she became attuned to the rapid beating of his left carotid artery, but with Thompson in the room, she pushed that sensation away. Her gaze concentrating intently on Leiman's face, she continued, "How can I, your londi, serve you, Master?"

Thompson stared at Khalida silently for half a minute, his eyes still hooded. A slow smile spread on his face and he returned to the chair, crossing a leg sedately over the other. He crossed his arms and continued to watch. Leiman's rapid breathing continued, and sweat was covering his body. Khalida could see that his pupils were dilated, and the artery on the side of his neck was pulsing quickly. She could sense the blood surging through his body, as though his heart was a hammer beating madly.

"E-enjoy it . . . y-es. B-beg for more," he breathed. He then collapsed on top of Khalida, and a violent shudder passed through him. At that point, she felt the presence loom over her. It seemed to weigh down on her mind, and all of her limbs became heavy. It did not help that Leiman's unconscious body was still on top of her.

Contested roll (3 turns) - Khalida (Resolve + Composure): 4 successes
Contested roll (3 turns) - presence (??): 6 successes


It seemed an eternity as the presence fought against Khalida's for control of her body. She resisted well at first, and the entity appeared to weaken. But it was only for a moment. Leiman moaned and rolled to the side, and it seemed that something pulled him away. At that point the presence strengthened, becoming an invisible physical presence weighing on her body. It surged into her mind and then tendrils of alien thought began to flood down her limbs.

"No!!!" Khalida screamed, discarding "Kali" and calling upon her own strength of will while hoping she could fight off whatever this was which was attempting to gain control of her. Her client was beyond her skills at the moment; she felt no professional regret at no longer playing along with his game.

If Khalida succeeds at regaining control of her limbs, she hopped out of the bed into a crouch and faced Thompson. "My services paid for have come to an end with Jeremy in the state he is in," she hissed towards him. "Who are you and do you have any idea what it is that is attacking me?" she asked, not expecting assistance but again drawing upon the hope that perhaps answers may be forthcoming, all the while continuing to resist any further attempts to possess her by the unknown presence.
