*It was almost har for her to say it, imagining his reaction*
"His lover...they call him Alexander the Great."

*Genghis could not accept this. It was too much. His face perfectly placid, he rose elegantly from the table. His voice was low and smooth.*
"If it were any other speaking such words...I would call them a liar. And have their head for it."
*He ground his jaw slightly.*
"But you...you swear that this is true?"

"Unless they've broken up since I last looked in, I swear it."
*She looked at him calmly*
"And if it were anyone else talking to me like that, I would add on fifty years to their sentence."

*Genghis lowered his head respectfully, lashes fluttering briefly as he remembered who he was dealing with. His voice softened.*
"Please forgive me...I was out of line. But surely...you understand my stance. Not that it excuses my rudeness."

"Of course. I am sorry you had to find out this way."
*She sighed*
"I never had much dealing with him until he got into a fight with our son. Something to do with that American tart he's so mad about. I tried to tell them that they were brothers and shouldn't kill each other, but that only made it worse."

*Genghis pursed his lips.*
"It is my fault. I did not teach him respect...or honor. I regret any disrespect he showed you."
*His eyes narrowed.*
"I will speak to him about it."

"Thank you, but it doesn't really matter anymore."
*She seemed to be looking into the distance*
"He and I drifted apart from each other years ago. He blames me for him being what he is- a nosferatu, creature of the night. The only possible way I could control him would be to sleep with him, and that's a bit too low even for me."

*Genghis's brow rose.*
"Say what? Is that the secret behind your successful campaigns? I will admit...you are quite persuasive in the nude."

*She raised her brow*
"You insult me. I enjoy sex as much as you do, but it's hardly a way to run a buisiness. I simply meant that Vlad lets himself be taken for a ride by his brides in a way that he doesn't allow anyone else to."

*Genghis considered her words.*
"I did not mean to cross you. I meant it as a compliment. No woman has ever moved me as you have."
*He shifted slightly.*
"But he...he grants them power over him?"

"It depends on whether they accept him as their lord. Take the American girl- she was mad about her husband and simply despises Vlad. So what happens to her? She's being banged day and night by every bloody person in the house. But Elisabeta, the Romanian tart, is all about 'my lord' this and 'my lord' that. He'd never admit it, but she's got him eating out of the palm of her hand."

*Genghis lowered his brow.*
"So I see."
*He shifted his gaze slightly.*
"Perhaps she needs to be reminded of her place. I will not have my son fall beneath a woman."

"I see..."
This is gonna be good.
"And knowing you, I think I have an idea of how she will be put in her place."

*Genghis's eyes turned back to hers, his brow arched.*
"Is there a better way? Do you think she will bend to reason?"

"I wasn't criticizing."
*She smiled*
"And he's done it enough to other happy couples- it'll serve him right."
