The next morning, Fu Ling sat crossed leg on Cains bed. Cain wrapped his arms around his from behind nuzzling into his neck.
"You're restless," Cain said simply.
Fu Ling didn't turn around. "A little. I've been considering something."
Cain pulled his even closer into his embrace.
"The blood substitute," Fu Ling said finally, leaning back into his chest. "We've stabilized production, but the human settlements haven't received any yet. I want Alec to handle distribution there."
"They're humans."
"Yes, but soon, Vampires will live there as well and vice versa. It's better to plan ahead."
Cain hummed softly. "You trust him."
Fu Ling smiled faintly. "He owes me."
Cain arched a brow. "That's not the same thing."
"No," Fu Ling agreed softly, "but it's close enough."
"Then we go to him."
Fu Ling stood, brushing the folds of his robe into place. "Now."
The town lay just at the edge of the forest which was vampire-controlled territory.
