¡°Reeks of death exactly how?¡± Kaomin asked with a raised eyebrow. Sniffing the air himself he could only pick out rotting garbage, stagnant water, some sort of diesel fuel, and maybe motor oil.

¡°I hadn¡¯t considered a personal motive,¡± he admitted, ¡°you mean like taking his ¡®mojo¡¯, his power from him? Like a subordinate?¡± The detective scratched his chin. ¡°Might be a good thought, if he was well hung... or rich. Unfortunately we don¡¯t have that bit to work with, do we? We¡¯ll know more when we visit the coroner, first let's get you up to speed.¡±
He glanced at Romy. ¡°The first cups on me, but don¡¯t get used to it.¡±

¡°I don¡¯t know. It¡¯s just this scent I get when vampires have been around. It¡¯s like something sickeningly sweet hanging all around the area.¡± It wasn¡¯t really that helpful because just because it was there didn¡¯t mean that they had anything to do with the actual crime but it sometimes did help make things a little clearer. ¡°Enhanced senses and all,¡± she then elaborated.?

¡°I just figured that attacking the family jewels indicates either a sexual motive, pent up frustration or anything, or just plain out anger. You have to be pretty pissed off after all to target that specific area. Maybe some underlying trauma?¡± Romy was just offering up some options here, not trying to take over. She was someone that needed to brainstorm about things, needing to liven them up in her head. ¡°No, we don¡¯t , but if there was anything special about that specific part of his anatomy, his sexual partners would undoubtedly know.¡± Now that would be an interesting search.?
?
¡°But anyway, I need my caffeine, let¡¯s go grab a cup so you can fill me in on things. How about you lead the way?¡±?

¡°Interesting,¡± Kaomin mused as he turned and led the way down the block, ¡°I didn¡¯t know there was a ¡®smell¡¯ associated with vampires. I get a tingle at the base of my skull when they¡¯re close.¡±

Turning to look at his partner Kaomin said, ¡°you seem to have an unhealthy interest in the victim¡¯s missing member. For all we know he removed it himself in a fit of despair. Let¡¯s wait till we see the coroner. we don¡¯t even know who he is yet.¡±
?
Getting to the coffee shop Kaomin opened the door. It was empty. ¡°How do you take your poison?¡± he asked as he headed to the barista behind the counter, not waiting for Romy to find a table.?
