Sincerely,

Your concerned Master

To Sir Isaac

Knight of Sangre

Has my heartkeeper confided to you of any troubles lately? She has been noticeably withdrawn in our last few exchanges, more so than her usual

Sincerely,

Lord Mihail Gheorgiu

Marquis of Sangre

To His Lordship

Marquis of Sangre

I have reached out to milady as soon as I received his lordship’s letter, and it is with the deepest regrets that I must say we have an unfortunate situation

Milady has apparently been harboring certain misassuptions about his lordship for some years She appears to have been under the impression all this time that his lordship’s physical countenance and, er, interests would be commensurate hat is normally expected from one who’s had lived for centuries To further elaborate, e would leave you disinterested in engaging in activities that are physical in nature Instead, she believed that her primary responsibility as both pet and heartkeeper would be to provide his lordship with a healthy supply of high-quality blood through intravenous means

Pray command me as you will on this matter, milord, and until then I remain your humble and loyal servant,

Sir Isaac Booth

To Sir Isaac Booth

Knight of Sangre

Correctwith this, Booth

Are you saying Rhapsody believed she had been exchanging letters with a wrinkly oldon call for blood transfusions?

And now that she knows none of those is true, and that she has a order, this is what has made my heartkeeper suddenly cold towards me?

Mihail
