    Summary

    A thin line of irritation formed on Alastor's smile. He sat up, letting the sheets fall to his waist, and scanned the room. Vox didn't seem to be in the bathroom, nor on the sofa, nor wandering curiously around the room as he had done the night before.

    On the nightstand, propped against an oil lamp, was a note. It was written in impeccable, almost arrogant handwriting, on white paper.

    Alastor picked it up with two fingers, reading the words aloud, his voice a distorted, cold murmur.

    "Thank you for the night. It was a pleasure meeting you"

    His smile froze. "It was a pleasure meeting you"?

    Was that how he said goodbye to him? As if it had been a casual date, a one-night stand of no importance? As if he didn't plan to ever see him again? Alastor squeezed the paper between his fingers, crumpling it slowly.
