Scud actually jumped when Drake's arms slid around him, so engrossed was he in trying to get the two pieces of metal to join together. “Drake! Don't sneak up on me like that!”
Drake chuckled. “You were so wrapped up in what you were doing you didn't hear me speaking to you, so I had to take matters into my hands. You need to take a break from this Scud. The payroll isn't done and you haven't fed.”
Scud sighed and turned in Drake's arms. “You're right it just that I'm so close to making it work. I tend to slip into this space where I have a one track mind.”
Scud wondered who was on the menu for tonight. One thing Drake had never done since Scud had been with him was drain a human. Instead they had a group of regular donors who in exchange for room, board and other perks,offered themselves up as a sort of vampire buffet.
Scud let himself be guided by Drake's arm out of the workroom and to the feeding room here in the lower level. Drake had made sure there was a room dedicated to feeding. A pair of twin beds a large couch and a refrigerator stocked with a variety of fruit juices were the only furniture in the room.
Entering the room Scud smiled seeing Ella waiting. Ella was a rare treat, due to her blood type. “Hello Ella” he said walking up to her and slipping his arms around her waist.
This was the second thing Scud had learned from Drake, proper feeding technique. Only lesser vampires killed their prey, because they were sloppy feeders. Lesser vampires just tore out throats and lapped up the gushing blood. Drake was better than that and had taught Scud well.
Scud stepped behind the woman placing his hands on her shoulders gently pulling her back against him. He slid one arm around her waist to hold her in place while his other hand swept her hair back to bare her neck.
Scud ran his tongue along the woman's neck tracing her jugular. Always the jugular, never the carotid artery. Scud bit down piercing the vein and feeling the sweet, hot blood flow into his mouth. Swallowing as his mouth filled and letting it fill again gulping down blood until he had his fill. When he was sated he licked the spot, his saliva helping the blood clot and slowing the flow. Ella had been with them for over a year now.
Scud lifted her in his arms and laid her on a bed. He pulled the covers up tucking her in before going to the refrigerator and pouring a glass of orange juice. Proper feeding technique also included caring for your food.
“Thank you Ella.” Scud said smiling at the woman and helping her to drink the juice. “Rest for a while.”
“Come Scud, Ella is not the only one who needs rest.” Drake said holding out his hand. “I'll have Renardo come sit with you Ella.”
Scud cuddled against Drake's side as they left the room. “She's my favorite. AB Negative is so hard to find.”
“I thought you deserved something special. But it was also a bribe.” Drake said.
“Bribe?” Scud asked “You don't need to bribe me Drake.”
“Then tell me why there is such animosity between you and Hannibal King.” Drake said.
“I don't like him.” Scud answered.
Drake turned Scud to face him, “I know you don't like him, what I want to know is why.”
“He's the world's dumbest fuck. I would have killed to have just half of what he threw away for Danica Talos. He called me a whore, you already know I was. I was selling my ass on the street at the age of 14 just so I could afford to sleep in a rat infested run down motel room rather than behind a dumpster in an alley while his ass was sleeping on silk sheets in a big house hidden behind a gate manned by a security guard. While I was hoping I had enough change to get damned hamburger at McDonald's, that son of a bitch was throwing steak in the trash. While I was forced into this to survive, that fucker chose it.” Scud turned and punched the wall. “I had no one, Drake and that sorry bastard turned his back on a family that loved him for that bitch.”
Drake put his arms around Scud and pulled him close. “And now you are the one who has everything.”

Scud was checking the payroll when his office door flew open.
“Sir you can't just barge in here without an appointment!” Delores was doing her best but Blade was ignoring her completely. “Mr Frohmeyer, I'm sorry!”
“It's alright Delores, I'll see him.” Scud said standing up from behind his desk.
“Moving up in the world, Scud.” Blade said looking around.
“Yeah who did you fuck to rate a corner office with windows?” Hannibal said.
“I'll see you B, but get Hannibal King out of my office or I'll have security throw him in one of the dumpsters out back. ” Scud spat glaring daggers at Hannibal.
“Wait outside King.” Blade said. “Scud and I need to talk without your running commentary”
“Blade, come on.” Hannibal started.
“Outside now!” Blade said never taking his eyes off of Scud.
Hannibal gave Scud one last nasty look and then turned to leave the office grumbling under his breath. Once the door closed behind him, Scud dropped heavily into his chair.
“You're good at fooling others Scud, but give me one good reason why I shouldn't test that Titanium/Silver Alloy sword on your ass.” Blade said settling back in one of the chairs facing the desk. “And don't give me that 'I don't know what you're talking about' business. You're no more human now than Drake. You're a damned suckhead”
“Because Drake isn't lying. He is La Magra. I have to deal with that demon every few months to keep him calm.” Scud said. “Believe me B, you don't want him running loose. And you don't want Hassan to get his way either. Humans are already at the breaking point. There are too many vampires for the population to support much longer.”
“So I'm supposed to let you live because of Drake?” Blade questioned.
“Look B, Drake is not like the lesser vampires, the suckheads. As long as La Magra is under control, Drake doesn't kill and I don't kill.”

“King,” Drake said. “What are you doing here?”
“He came with that other man.” Delores said. “They just barged into Mr Frohmeyer's office, then this one came out. The other one is still in there. Mr Frohmeyer told me it was alright that he would see the other man, but I still think we should call security and toss this this one out in the street.” She ended with a snort.
Drake gave the woman a smile. “Well Delores if he doesn't behave himself, be my guest.” Drake opened the door to Scud's office.
“What is this lesser vampire shit? A suckhead is a suckhead.” Blade asked. Drake quickly closed the door behind him, not wanting Delores to hear the conversation.
“Josh, are you alright?” Drake said making his way around the desk to check on Scud.
“I'm fine Drake, B and I were just talking. He knows.” Scud said.
Drake reached down and took Scud's hand pulling him out of the chair. Drake then sat down pulling Scud down to sit in his lap.
“So that answers Hannibal's question about who you fucked doesn't it?” Blade said.
“Danica gave Scud to La Magra as a sacrifice. Believe me when I tell you it wasn't a pleasant experience for him. He's been regularly feeding the demon ever since and it is a terrifying and agonizing experience. Scud suffers the demon's need to cause pain and fear sparing your precious humans. That he now has what King threw away is meager compensation in comparison.”
“Hmph” Blade grunted. “You say you don't kill Scud, so consider this, if I find out anyone has died by your hand, I will kill you, consequences and La Magra be damned.” Blade stood up. “Drake you and I need to talk. If I'm going to kill Hassan I need to know what he is capable of.”
“You mistake me Blade, I intend to kill Hassan. I need you to strip him of his followers.” Drake said “It was Hassan who unleashed La Magra's anger on the world all those years ago by having the woman the demon loved killed. I'm not going to give him the chance to kill Scud.” Drake said protectively tightening his arms around the man perched on his lap.
