The trio stood waiting for Draven to open the door. Each of them felt a bit strange being here considering what happened the last time, but for Alexei, his wife insisted he come and try to make this right.??¡°She feels like their break up is all her fault,¡± Alexei said. ¡°She looked so sad and dejected; How can I deny her this,¡± Alexei said. ¡°I just hope Draven wasn¡¯t too angry.¡±
As always Nicolae was stoic. ¡°He has every right to be angry,¡± Nicolae said.
¡°She had no idea that Anais didn¡¯t know she was Were¡.none of us did.¡± Alexei said
¡°I did,¡± Nicolae replied simply
¡°You did,¡± both men said stunned.
¡°I did. If anyone bothered to watch the girl, really watch the girl, you would have known too.¡± Nicolae said. "You could see she lived a very shelter life. And knowing the kind of man, Victor Deveraux was and who Lyra was to him, I am not surprised she didn't know." Nicolae said. There had been a few occasions when Draven was fighting for equality, where he had accompanied him on some of his trips. His first visit to the Deveraux Estate had been one.
Alexei had sighed. But that did not deter him from insisting on trying to make this right. And when he learned from his head butler that Draven had come to Paris, he knew he had to at least try.?Somehow Alexei convinced Nicolae to come with them. ?They all knew that while the three had been friends since childhood, Draven and Nicolae had always been the closest.
¡°And with him turning off his humanity, we will need you there to act as¡¡±Gregor paused
¡°A buffer,¡± Alexei said. ¡°After all you know how Draven can be when he was not in touch with his human side.¡±
¡°I think you should leave this alone. Emily will just have to learn that she cannot get her way all the time,¡± Nicolae had said to his friends. But had indeed made the trip with them when they seemed insistent on doing so.
Now the three of them stood in the hallway of this fancy Paris hotel, ¡°Did one of you at least reach out in advance to let him know we were coming.¡± Nicolae asked.?To that question he received silence.?Nicolae shook his head. ¡°You are just bound and determined to make this worse aren¡¯t you,¡± he said to Alexei just as Draven asked who is it.?¡°It¡¯s us Draven.¡± Nicolae said. ¡°Can we come in.¡±
(Draven)
How in the world did they know where he was? "No, I am not descent and it is the middle of the day.? I will meet you after sundown, like normal vampires.? Leave a contact number with the front desk."? He turned away from the door.? He wasn't about to have his sleep interrupted?by the last people in the world that he didn't want to see.? He sat on the edge of the bed to see if they would leave or speak again.? He could just ignore them, then they would simply have to wait for him.
