Eterna took the glass of bloodwine with a smile, waiting for the rest to be poured before raising her glass.
"Cheers, my darling" her gaze meeting Carrick's as she took the glass to her lips and took her first sip. The taste was exquisite and so it was a great shame that she could only have a couple of glasses at most. Bloodwine was common to all vampire gatherings and so the Countess had extensively tested her limits. Like most consumables, anything but straight blood from a bottle caused her problems and so it was best kept in moderation.
