BLOOD EDICT
DISEASE.
Death.
Deceit.
Devastation.
Filth, humanity, and greed littered the nightclub as obnoxious beats
repeated overhead. The humans would call it music. Caro called it hell.
Why would anyone enjoy this?
At least from her perch at the back of the room, it didn’t rattle her teeth,
unlike her experience on the dance floor. How those beings tolerated it, she
had no idea. She preferred peace and quiet. Tranquility.
Not even ten minutes and she missed home already.
She would find Osiris, deliver the edict, and leave.
The poisoned one, as her kind called him, had lived among the humans
too long and adopted his own level of greed. First, he created a bloodline of
life-sucking abominations who referred to themselves as Ichorians, and then
they went on to procreate with humans to create Hydraians.

Something akin to shock swept over her. Or she suspected that was it.
Emotions belonged to humans.
He stretched an arm along the back of the couch, grazing her shoulder in
the process. “To what do we owe the honor, Your Highness?”
“How are you doing that?” she demanded after his fingers brushed her
again.
“What are you doing here?” he countered.
“I don’t believe that’s any of your business.”
“Oh, on that we disagree.” He leaned into her personal space. “This is my
territory, and you certainly don’t belong here.”
Well, that last bit was a reasonably intelligent deduction. As for the
former… “How does one own a territory? Or are you referring to this
dreadful place?”
His laugh vibrated their shared seat, and she found the sound oddly
pleasant. Her kind did not revel in amusement often, if ever, but humans did.
