Kitâ€™s attention was diverted by the arrival of Seni, though he didnâ€™t stay distracted for long. He liked Seni, but the werewolf was really interesting. So he just tipped his wine glass in the guardâ€™s direction, acknowledging him, but quickly turned his attention back to the wolf beside him.<br/><br/>What did he say his name was? Oh, yes. Salem. Kit smirked and was about to jokingly comment on how the name fits a cat better than a dog, when Salem missed his mouth and spilt alcohol down his front. Kit almost dropped his own drink in surprise. Surely the wolf wasnâ€™t that drunk? Kitâ€™s eyes narrowed in confusion and suspicion. The guy seems way too sharp to be completely pissed. Kit let his eyes trail up and down Salemâ€™s body, looking for signs of deception, but couldnâ€™t find any.<br/><br/>Filing it under as just another curious thing about the wolf, Kit took another sip of his wine just as Salem decided to join the conversation again. A thoughtful look appeared on Kitâ€™s face as he tried to decide how much truth to tell Salem. And what Salem would believe.<br/><br/>In the end, his nature and personality won out. He put on a slightly sad look and hunched his shoulders. â€œWell, darling, you know how it is. Girlfriend was a vampire,â€ he lied. â€œAnd, well, she died. Was murdered. People just donâ€™t have enough tolerance these days.â€ He shuddered. â€œAfter that, well, I wanted revenge, you know.â€ He leaned closer to Salem and said, â€œThatâ€™s why Iâ€™m here. Payback.â€ Which was a little closer to the truth.<br/><br/>Kit had a few reasons why he lied. A bit had to do with the truth being unbelievable and would probably cast him as being stupid. And he wanted to see how quickly Salem would pick apart this deception, if he would catch it at all. And what his reaction would be. However, mostly Kit did it because he felt like it.<br/><br/>He took a sip of his wine and waited for Salemâ€™s response.
