Subject: Jean-Claude has been a very naughty master vampire

Happy birthday to me! 36 and don't care who knows it! Thought I'd send along an excerpt of the next chapter. Just waiting to get it back from my beta readers so I can officially post it. :) Enjoy!

I was almost back to the door of Asher's room when I was stopped by Jean-Claude's voice. "Good evening, cherie." I froze where I was, afraid to turn around.

"Hello, Jean-Claude. I was just on my way to call and check in with my husband then go pick up Kimmy and Tim," I said. At least my voice came out sounding normal.

Jean-Claude's voice was like silk, wrapping around me, caressing my skin, and heating my blood like good brandy. "Surely that can wait, amante de moi." He was standing beside me. He trailed his hand down the arm of my sweater and back up again, giving me a seductive pout. "I was hoping that we could resume our conversation that was so rudely interrupted last night," he purred. "You shouldn't have run away like that ma fleur," he kept up with the voice. "I can see how you lust after the magi. If you had only stayed a little longer, together we could have seduced him, and you could have enjoyed us both." He was stroking my face much like Ramses had done earlier.

I gulped. "I *really* need to do those things *now*, Jean-Claude," I tried not to stammer. My heart was racing, torn between ardeur-induced desire and terror. "I don't want any of them to get to worrying." I had backed up against the stone of the wall.

He placed a hand on the wall on either side of my head. "Then you should at least take an escort with you, cherie," he smiled. I hoped to God he wasn't suggesting that HE go with me. Kimmy wouldn't stand a chance.

"I was planning on asking either Jason, Nathaniel or Stephen to show me how to get to the clinic," I stalled.

"Oh, that's too bad," he tsked. "Nathaniel and Stephen have already gone to work...and Jason is currently...indisposed." He started to lean in to me presumably for a kiss. "But I would be more than happy to...MERDE! What IS that *stench*?"
He recoiled with a snarl. The effects of the ardeur vanished like a switch had been thrown.

I spoke without thinking, before I could censor myself. "I thought I'd give some of Ramses' *snake* bite cure a try," I grinned maliciously.

Jean-Claude's face reverted to his amused-mask. "Touche`, madame. I will send Damien to escort you wherever you wish." He gave a courtly bow, taking my hand and drawing it to his lips. His eyes rolled up to meet mine. "Until we meet again." He brushed his lips across my knuckles before turning my hand over and flicking my wrist with his tongue. A mild jolt shot through me at that, and he left me with a dark chuckle. I hurried into the room shutting and leaning back against the door waiting for my pulse to calm. Asher was nowhere to be seen, so I walked over to the luggage and started digging for my phone.

Thanks Sylvie. I'm at the point where birthdays just mean bigger bills are due...car tag, auto insurance, that kind of stuff
