"I'm sure that it's also against the law to send a fellow vampire to their death," Cael countered. "Just like it's against the law to harm a guest. I'm currently both a guest in your Court, and a vampire. Your protests, Janus, are absolutely pitiful at this point. If you can't comprehend things like honor, then at least understand the consequences of trying to bite what you can't chew."
