Birch turned to his two guests and raised an eyebrow.
“Your problem must be serious indeed.”
“Oh it is.” Beatrice Cartwright looked him in the eye.
“My Bishop lies under a vinculum.”
There was a moment of silence.
It is important to understand how bold she was, and
how trusting, to meet the gaze of Solomon Birch. There
are many strains of the vampire curse, and his inclined
him toward provoking unreasoning passion, affection,
adulation — even love. This, along with a tendency
toward vast strength and speed, made his species the most
efficient of predators among the undead.
Yet Solomon had eschewed the easy path of forced
affection, choosing instead to pursue a different form
of power. With no weapons but a met glance and his
voice, he could impose his desires on those around him.
While it was a power most reliable on humans, his fellow
vampires — his ‘Kindred’ — were far from immune.
Her words and gaze were doubly bold because Birch
was known for a cruel and violent temper. Triply bold
because he was her Bishop.
