The vampire has arrived, at the apartment that is

William relied on mundane devices for this. No hint of Glamour (not since the urn was removed from nearby) nothing to indicate cause for extra concern. He also ensured a few key allies at the hotels, well-tipped over a length of time, are involved in the room's housekeeping and service.

Oh he gets word of every moment, every movement.

The Belgain vampire is.. a hand some fellow, a bit pale (Surprise suprise) and he does cast reflections in mirrors

He listens, and watches.

So far, hes' not snacked on a maid yet. Just as concerning is the brute of a valet he has. The guy looks like he eats other weight lifters for breakfast

The leech may cast a reflection... do cameras see him? Does he have a shadow?

He does, and does.

And they do

One thing he notices is that the vampire has no shaving equipment. A minor thing to be sure

William has a few thoughts about that, but he keeps them to himself. He watches to see if he can catch wind of their plans.

He waits

and waits..

and then... "A pity I cannot have Callidora now. Her voice is amazing. I shall be the envy of my peers to introduce her"

He wonders briefly about which, if any, chemicals in his arsenal would effect a dead man, and listens intently.

"As you say, master" The big man nods "She's a beauty, for her age."

"For her age?" The vampire gives a dissapointed look "Some women are like wine, my friend. I almost assure you, she is far more fetching now than she was as some knock kneed girl in her early college years. She has ripened "

"Well a bit old for me then" he says simply

"You realize there are some of my kind who would not give you such liberties?" The vampire mmms

"I know and am lucky" he says

"You are," A look "It is possible the embrace will further her beauty, whatever, it is her voice that I want"

Alone, listening and watching, he pales.

"So od that thing, boss, make her love you, should last long enouhg for you to put the bite on her"

"Oh she's strong willed, that's a gamble" He says "And besides, when she sings I am ... lost in it. She imbolized me"

"Everyone slips, boss. "

"Yes, it was joyous"

An inkling of the start of an idea sparks in his mind, and William sits quietly, letting the enemy feed it.

"Damn it, if there's an insect in this room I may have the owner killed" The vampire stirs

"Insect?" the big guy looks about

"Something's buzzing" The vampire says

William grimaces but is fairly certain the thing can't track him back.. still, he deactivates a quarter of the devices in the suite.

Best not to cease suddenly after that exclaimation.

"It must be moving, it got quieter" he says "Mmmph"

That , it seems was the right tactic

He'll drop a few more just a little later, to be sure.

Slowly he cuts his devices off, losing any further conversation, but also preventing discovery

Not too many, one hopes, not too soon.

HIs phone rings. CC is calling

He answers it, hissing "Yes? Are you alright?"

"Fine, just wondering how things are going ? "

"Dearest, allow me to call you back? I'm listening in. I may have an idea. I promise I will be in touch as soon as I can, but I must focus. Stay SAFE."

"Oh very well. I'm chatting up somethings with the Verebecks anyway. Love you"

And she hangs up

He attends the remaining devices again.

It's actually rather dull. The vampire has put on some music, Jazz yes, not CC, and while excellent, he stays still for an hour. His man servant eventually slips away to go to his own room and perhaps get food for himself

He sends Callidora a text: When you are free, come by the Club WITH ESCORT? I have an idea.

TXT: Can be there in 20
