The car moved slowly through the darkened streets of Seattle, carefully following the laws as its windshield wipers lazily kept the rain moving off the front of the car.  Within the car sat two linchpins of vampire society, and a girl who got caught up in it all.<br/><br/>Eliza sat between Raiden, the regent of Cascades, and an anonymous thug who had helped take her down.  She was supposed to be the seneschal of the city, yet now she was another prisoner of the Prince, a troublemaker who had lost control to the beast.  She sat with her hands cuffed behind her back and her head bowed, unable to feel anything but the numbing rush of blood the Bishop had given her.<br/><br/>The beast was content for now, but a terrible current of dread seemed to run through her entire body as she realized that it would soon be reawakening and beginning its campaign of terror yet again.  Eliza had always thought she'd come to an understanding of the beast, but it had become an elder before she truly did, and soon found ways to overwhelm her will as the blood, the thing that had kept her sane, was taken from her, and replaced with a terrible hunger that had made her into a monster.
