RT @LustBeyondDeath: Romance. A rare thing indeed for a vampire of her ilk. However, even she has to admit that it does feel nice to. ….

"I can confidently say I've not been surprised in a few thousand years. But, curious? Curious how you got in here. ".

Call her cynical but if it was too good to be true, it often had a catch.

to settle in. Let the tour begin. The boastful dragon started with no qualms. And Piper listened. She was good at that when not being actively pissed off by someone. "It seems to be in your favor. Though what would make them abandon such a place? Or. What killed them off?".

decided to keep such a comment to herself. He had been kind enough to offer and. For once there was a lack of dick measuring. A potential friend in the making. How rare. So she stepped up the extended limb with grace and relative ease, finding a spot between his shoulders.

Hard to read was the expression cast downwards at the offered tail. Piper could not honestly land on an answer for if she wanted to ride around on a dragon or walk. Well, she supposed if there was a mount good enough for a Queen, it would have to be a dragon, right?. She.

However, if he did try to do anything to bother her, which she doubted at this point, she'd have no choice but to play dirty. "And my name is Piper.". There were no accolades to follow.

admittedly magnificent spit of flying land. "Well, Kovas. Seeing as I'm your guest, I believe you should give me a tour. Don't worry, I'll be on my best behavior. Cross my useless heart.". She didn't intend to steal anything from him, frankly. That was incredibly below her.

unnecessary. She'd learned to float around without them. "Kovas." His name was tested on her tongue with a curious tone. Lightning Tyrant. Hm. She, in a relatively calm and good mood, simply let him drone off his accomplishments with a small smirk. Red eyes swept across this.

"Funnily enough, been there and done that. I just prefer to walk on two legs instead of four.". It was an odd ability but Piper didn't look a gift horse in the mouth. The gift horse of course being her dead husband. "Though the wings are fun. " She added. Once again. so.

easily now. At least, until she was satisfied. Be that conversation or her pushing buttons further. "You've earned a gift. I shall learn your name. What is it?".

Perhaps others would look upon this as weakness but Piper merely found respect for it. And, naturally, her ego ignited with happiness. "Not a bumbling lizard but a wise one. How unfortunate; 𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘺𝘰𝘶'𝘷𝘦 𝘱𝘪𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘥 𝘮𝘺 𝘤𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘺.". He wouldn't get rid of her.

"Brawn 𝘢𝘯𝘥 brains? Color me impressed.". Truly, it was rare these days to find creatures who could admit their station. But surely it must be truer that it was rarer when a dragon was involved. They were often so quick to snap. But this one. This one carefully folded.

I may be out of practice." Her tone dropped to a playful one. Apologetic while somehow not genuine. All given with a smile. "Go on. Back up that light show. Give me a reason, lizard, I'm in the market for a new bag.". She paused. "And, if that wasn't clear; that was a threat.".

No need to breathe; it was clear she was. Smelling him. Taking in his scent. Memorizing it. "Though, I wouldn't mind a mid morning warm up if you insist on guarding your ego just as healthily as your coin. I admit, it has been quite a while since I've skinned one of your kind.

laughter seconds later. "A passing curiosity." She corrected with an unnerving lack of change to the look in her eyes. Even more upsetting perhaps was how the Queen stepped closer, imbibing in his space. A long drawn breath was taken, unused lungs flooding with a healthy draw.

𝘐𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘰𝘰 𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘺. Lightning sparked from the dragon's maw, not yet released but building in warning like a snake with a rattle. All the while, the vampire merely watched, humming a little tune of amusement. And that hum transformed to a bubble of

respect for this creature. "Though back to the point at hand, what would happen if the thief were to bite back? Let's say. Dig her claws past those pretty scales with one hand and take your little trinkets with the other. ?". She sounded coy, yet her eyes burned. .
