[@King Tai] [color=ed1c24]~"Hmph...hybrids, the cursed breed. I'm well aware of their power, Stone, as much as I was about the vendettas between the three ruling covens, since I was informed by my so called [i]sex slave[/i]."~[/color] Yet another insult to her beloved, but Rebecca brushed it off. Besides, it was Camille she was more concerned about leaping over the desk and digging her claws into the cue-ball. Nonchalant she snatched the folder off the desk, her eyes skimming over the minor details, paying no further attention to the blowhard behind his fancy desk. All she needed was just the image of this [i]Vladimir[/i] fellow, everything else was just folly. [color=ed1c24]~"To have the benefits of both Nosferatu and Lycan blood, they should be considered a bit more elite, but do the mutual disdain both species share for their tainted bloodlines, they are considered nothing more than trash. Frankly, they're all abominations, and rightly so I will see to it they are eradicated. Although..."~[/color] She placed the folder back on the desk, neat and tidy just as it was presented with a smirk, [color=ed1c24]~"I can't say I've ever grappled with one myself. Their strength is notable indeed, but I've never experienced such. It would be a little too tempting [i]not[/i] to undertake a pacifist approach. Nevertheless, Stone, I will agree to your terms....for now."~[/color] And of course, she knew of the recent feud between the three clans, Capers, Banes, and Blackwoods, each pointing responsibility towards the other for the slain heads of their...infamous families. Rebecca had a hunch the Big Apple was grasped in the coils of the serpent, licentious covens treating the city as their whore, with her hands tied behind her back and a blindfold obscuring her woeful eyes, but she had only assumed one was in control, not three. And not just vampires, but lycans...and hybrids. [color=ed1c24]~"I could care less what this Vladimir has to do with the three families or this childish spat between them. He's a target, and that is all, the same with the others."~[/color] She stood from her chair with another stretch, beckoning Camille to follow her to the door. [color=ed1c24]~"I'll send word when I've made contact with him. Oh, and Stone?"~[/color] A pause at the door, the woman glancing at him over her shoulder. [color=ed1c24]~"Stop sending your damn spies to shadow me and my darling when we are out and about. If I had any intentions to plot against you, it would have been the day you shoved a crucifix into my breast. [i]Ciao[/i]."~[/color] And with that she disappeared out the door, Camille ambling behind her, but not without a last act of defiance towards Stone, sticking her tongue out at him in such a juvenile manner. [color=6ecff6]"Grr! What a douchebag!"[/color] She grumbled, her tiny fists balled up and shoved into the pockets of her hoodie. [color=6ecff6]"Did you hear that asshole? Dyke? Pet? Sex slave? Psh! Guy's just jealous cause he probably doesn't get any tail."[/color] Rebecca merely chuckled in response to the tirade, so adorable Camille was when she was flustered, [color=ed1c24]~"You could be onto something, dear, and apologies I didn't punish him for such vulgar behavior towards you, my sweet."~[/color] [color=6ecff6]"It's okay."[/color] Camille sighed, the tension loosening a little in her face as she managed to smile. [color=6ecff6]"I didn't want you to get in trouble because of me, Mistress. I'm sorry."[/color] But her smile faded into a small frown. Rebecca leaned over and kissed her on the cheek, a gentle peck of her lips to show she wasn't angered in the least by Cammie's outburst. It was justified after all. [color=ed1c24]~"No need for that, darling. I would have done the same in your case."~[/color] Camille blushed, her fingers gracing where Rebecca's lips made contact. [color=6ecff6]"So, are we really going after that Vlad guy? He sounds dangerous."[/color] She asked. Rebecca answered with a sigh, [color=ed1c24]~"I'm afraid we've no choice, Camille. Stone's ordered it, and begrudgingly, we must oblige, however..."~[/color] A smirk found its way to her lips, a mischievous glint in the polar ice of her eyes. [color=ed1c24]~"If he thinks I'm going to play by his rules, he's only fooling himself. I'll deal with this Vladimir on my own terms."~[/color]
