Blood Bound Patricia Briggs / Связанные кровью Патриция Бриггз
Like most people who own their own businesses, I work long hours that start early in the morning. S
hen someone calls me in the middle of the night, they'd better be dying.
Hello, Mercy,« said Stefan's amiable voice in my ear. »I wonder if you could do me a favor.«
Stefan had done his dying a long time ago, so I saw no reason to be nice. »I answered the phone at«
eered blearily at the red numbers on my bedside clock—» threeo'clock in the morning.«
Okay, that's not exactly what I said. I may have added a few of those words a mechanic picks up to
t recalcitrant bolts and alternators that land on her toes.
I supposeyou could go for a second favor,» I continued, «but I'd prefer you hang up and call me bac
more civilized hour.»
He laughed. Maybe he thought I was trying to be funny. «I have a job to do, and I believe your partic
alents would be a great asset in assuring the success of the venture.»
Old creatures, at least in my experience, like to be a little vague when they're asking you to do
omething. I'm a businesswoman, and I believe in getting to the specifics as quickly as possible.
At three in the morning you need a mechanic?«
I'm a vampire, Mercedes,» he said gently. «Three in the morning is still prime time. But I don't need
echanic, I need you. You owe me a favor.»
