[@MrZerkon] Vladimir leaned against the wall listening to the vampire speak. He tilted his head he would never admit it, but those being chased usually had his sympathy. However, he did not trust very easily. His eyes narrowed. Many years of living and so many being solitary led him to not being the best around people. Though currently, his wolf half wanted to protect the small pack that had be formed....at least...what it thought of a pack. He ran a hand through his hair forcing himself to calm down and think through what the stranger was saying. He decided to respond, his voice calmer, but still held the threat of a storm. [color=lightblue]"I am Vladimir. Last name is unimportant."[/color] grey eyes still held the storm as he continued. [color=lightblue]"My services do not come cheap and staying in one of my homes is not typically a part of it"[/color] He studied the vampire more. [color=lightblue]"However, I will allow you to stay as long as I do....and if you do not pay now, you will owe me."[/color] he didn't always require payment. Those whom he found in dire need of a unique situation such as Sasha did not need to pay him. While being chased earned his sympathy, it still required pay...though at a discount. [color=lightblue]"for your stay I require at least $500. 200 for staying here, 300 for my services of protection while you are here"[/color] that was half of what he would usually require. Not needing it also put him at the unique position that if he does not like the individual he can hand whatever money was given back and leave them to their own devices.
