gets?”

“You would.” She was beginning to wonder if anyone had a brain.

“Tie her up, for all I care. You would get the consort and your

revenge. Beck will fade if he loses her.”

It was the vampire’s turn to sound disbelieving. “More likely he

will simply go insane and attempt to track me. This is wrong. I only

came because I thought the consort needed saving. I’m not about to

get involved in carting off a screaming consort, and I’m certainly not

about to hurt one. You know what they say, be kind to consorts or you

will never find one yourself.”

Liadan nearly screamed in frustration. Her plan was fallin

g apart

because of an old vampire proverb? The royals had rules about

handling consorts, but she hadn’t expected them to be vigorously

upheld during a time when there were so few to be had.

The vampire looked very disappointed as he turned away from the

sight of the couple kissing. “Besides, it’s a good thing in the long run.

If the Finns can take back Tir na nÒg, our access to consorts will

return. It is obvious that you are angry at the brothers. Did they break

off relations with you? You have to be realistic, Miss. They were

always going to marry a bondmate. I have to be realistic, too.”

Palgrave pulled his hood up as he made to leave. “I came because I

want a consort, and she is lovely. She isn’t available, so the best I can

do is make some money off the situation. I don’t think anyone knows

the Finns have bonded yet. I’m sure that Beck went to the Vampire

plane to make a deal with his relatives. I might have time to buy up

some Dellacorp stock before the price goes sky high. I’ll make a

bundle and look like a genius in the trades.”
