The confusion in the human’s voice came as no surprise.  Keen eyes deciphered every movement, just as they had in the club.  Dorian was being cautious, but he was still an idiot, if the way he lowered his gun was any indication.  Client or not, Kade was a real threat.  No one knew that better than the vampire himself.<br/><br/>But at least he didn’t have to ruin a perfectly good outfit or worry about someone calling the police because Dorian had an itchy trigger finger.<br/><br/>His eyes picked out more than large movements, however.  They also saw the expressions, even before the light was turned on, and while the addition of some light aided him in picking them out, he was already surprised by the suddenly<i>very</i>human snake in front of him.<br/><br/>“No, I don’t suppose you did,” the pale beauty agreed, smoothly stepping across the plush carpet to examine more of the now lit room.  At least there was something of comfort there.  Kade liked the way it felt beneath his feet and was infinitely glad that he’d removed his socks at some point during his invasion.  “Nor would you, if this arrangement is any indication.  Seriously, Dorian, with the fees you charge, I’d think you’d be able to hire a decorator to sort this out.”  He was obviously teasing, having his fun with the man.  As much as he wanted to have his taste, it was also a moment he wanted to savour.  There was less pleasure if it all went down too quickly, and there was still the threat of the phone in Dorian’s hand.  Confident as he was in his speed, Kade was a little afraid he’d accidentally snap his prey’s neck if he got himself that worked up.<br/><br/>“Admit it,” he said then, turning to face the human fully.  “There is a part of you that’s excited, right now.  You don’t like to step out of your comfort zone, and I’ve thoroughly violated it.”  A sly smile followed that statement as he settled down on the arm of the couch, looking very much like a cat who had found his favourite perch.  He looked like he belonged there as much as the couch itself, or the drab colour scheme… like his very presence was not at all unusual or disturbing.
