It took Gabriel another hour to find him again, and by that time the hunter had managed to both find another shirt and get it dirty through – sword practice, Vlad decided after sniffing the air. All in all, if Gabriel was looking to put Vlad in a better mood, he hadn’t taken the best way to go about it.
Vlad tried to wrench the coffin lid back down, but Gabriel wouldn’t budge. Instead, the infuriating man handed him the letter.
”Dear Gabriel,” Dracula read silently.
“It is my brightest pleasure to invite you to a Festivity in the honour of Love, Peace and Goodwill among all of Our Kind. I am hoping that we can Get Along and treat this as an opportunity to expand our Horizons. The Event will take place in the establishment of Madame Racelle in Rue Houdon, in the Montmartre Quarter of the city of Paris. You are Most Cordially invited to attend, with whichever companion you choose.
Yours in God’s Eternal Grace and Glory,
Rafael
P.S. Gabe, please? You Owe me!
P.P.S. Mike says no weapons. I think that might be a Good Idea.
Vlad looked up. “No.”
Gabriel sighed and touched Vlad’s cheek gently.
Vlad wondered if that silver stake was still around.
