Chapitre 35: The Las Vegas Fae

"Fifi, what's that?" little Sampson asked his aunt.

Phoenix shot Ash an apologetic look as she answered the baby. "Be nice, Sammy. Daddy's friend is a vampire."

"What is a vampire doing in Las Vegas? Don't you all like the sunless north?" Hagan asked curiously.

Ash shot Ruby a panicked glance, not knowing how to handle the sudden attention. She clapped a hand on his shoulder to reassure him and he was able to find his voice after that. "My home is further north but we're here on business."

They all turned their scrutiny to the fairy who managed to convince a vampire to be her business partner next. She got mixed looks of awe, shock, and approval.

Ruby felt herself flush. Whatever they were thinking definitely wasn't what actually happened. She hadn't managed to tame a vampire or anything! They were simply helping each other out after a strange set of circumstances tossed them together.
