"My darling, would you be kind enough to find a glass
of wine for me?"

"Oh, of course!" Ash replied. A curt bow of the head
to Montoya and he slipped away to find a waitress.
Montoya turned slightly away from Alessandra, looking
out over the crowd. In his hand a glass of liquid
still not yet sipped.

"It seems as though you have made quite an impact on
the upper echelons of my council Lady Gaspare, first
Christophe and now Ash. I hadn't realised the skills
of your Clan ran as deep as restarting dead hearts!"


Without so much as a second’s pause, Alessandra
answered, “My Clan possesses many skills, though the
resuscitation of once living tissue is, I am afraid,
not one of mine.  Mr. Bennet served as a humbling
reminder to one of my years that some affairs should
remain in the past.  From the look of him, one may
assume that he is far from pining away for lack of my
company.”

She watches Ash as he moves through the crowd, fully
aware that the glow in her eyes must betray her ardor
for the handsome Toreador.

“Ash?  It is my heart which nearly beats again, Senor
Montoya, and I am happy to have discovered the true
reason that I came to Gotham.”
