<strong>Estelle d'Attaine</strong>, Hallway Outside Victor's Bedroom [Alone]<br/><br/>Estelle closed the door behind her as she left Viktor's room. Viktor always put her in the most difficult positions, and she had no idea how to get his accursed book back. Well, she did have an idea, but she didn't like it. Not really.<em>Perhaps I'll bed his son</em>, she thought with a sigh. For some reason, sex was usually the easiest way to achieve the goals Viktor gave her; worse yet, he would undoubtedly want to know each and every embarrassing detail afterward. He was simply cruel in that way.<br/><br/>She wiped her sticky, red lips clean with one finger, and set off to make the hunting party. If she spent all day courting Richard Dupont, Estelle was certain she could have Viktor's tome by the following morning.
