Social grace. Now that...that was interesting given the man was practically a recluse scared of his own dammed shadow. How Katherine saw anything worthy in that was beyond him. But of course he was still pushing. Hal was going to be the one to do it, the one to drink from her because...oh, he didn't think He would be able to stop. Now that was precious. He wasn't the one with the raging control issues that had lead them here after all. "I'm not an animal so much as I'm the very top of the food chain. Sure your boyfriend could probably kill me, but could he really outsmart me? You've heard the stories, heard Alex talk about me, you know how much Mitchell fears what I can turn him into if I so choose it. He understands true power and its not about what can or can't kill you. Really my dear, its about what you can or can't kill, or maim, or twist, or corrupt. That's what it is to be an Old One."

The spineless idiot with control issues or...well, me." Hal smirked widely. "I won't kill you, I have no intention of it given just how much fun I intend on having with you once Hal finally stops fighting, and he will. Its fated really, night follows day and I follow him."

"There's a good girl, now come here. If we're going to do this it's going to be right and you might even enjoy it, must be interesting being on the other side of it for once. You're even a little scared. I won't lie, that's remarkably sexy. Keep it up. But oh, now you haven't chosen yet. So go on, your dear friend, the one who asks this awful horrible thing of you, blackmails you even? Or me, the one who frankly, just wants to get his kicks"
