Erskine was tidying up his most recent blood samples, cataloguing and storing them away in the refrigerator unit. When he heard click click of high heels coming down his stairway.
He retrieved two glasses and set them on the table, then collected the decanter of vitae and placed it beside the glasses. Once he heard the knock on the door Erskine unlocked the many bolts and locks.
'Ellie my dear Sister! It is good to see you again. Five years is longer than you think. Please sit, drink!'
He motions to the waiting glasses and pulls a seat for her and pours her a drink.

A short while later Ellie was downstairs in Erskines laboratory or dungeon depending on who you were. Ellie hated having to knock and wait, but it was worth it in the long run. She smiled she liked his awkward ways, it amused her, his reaction to her presence. She drank the finest vitae that Erskine offerd her and sat waiting for him to say something.
Here Erskine it's a present you can make and receive calls on it, as well as do your emails. It's a mobile phone. Ellie grinned at the look she knew she was about to get. Dear Erskine I really don't like the inference that we are brothers and sisters.. she smiled watching him.

He looked at the phone and then back to her. His face puzzled,
'Thank you for the phone Ellie, I hadn't realized it bothered you so much dear si.....' he paused before he could finish the word.
With a slight grin he continued,
'I shall do my best to change the term. Tell me are you well?'
he smiles just a fraction as he pours more vitae for her.

Ellie smiled fondly as she looked at Erskine, she was glad to have met the pack but most grateful to him after all he had spent hours remodeling her entire body, it had taken time to get used to how she looked now, she was still getting used to how she looked and the reactions that both mortal and supernatural had towards her. Almost 100 years of being with the pack had slipped away so quickly so many memories.
She nodded her thanks to Erskine for the fresh glass of vitae.
I am very glad to be back with all of you, humans slightly desgust me their greed and self service all they think about. So tell me what have you been getting up to? How have you been?

He is silent and motionless for moments, then he lifts his glass to his lips.
'The same as always, research, experimentation and failures!' his finger traced the scar running down the middle of his chin.
'I have worked on another since you. As always the work flawless, but none are as beautiful as you and dearest Maria!' he smiled watching her,she still moved perfectly.

Ellie saw Erskine watching her she shivers involuntarily, his eyes like bottomless pits regarding her every move, she was used to his scrutiny and was waiting for the obligatory inspection, as always Erskine would be a perfect professional, she would have to see if this would be the time she could ruffle him.
Well dear monster I'm sure that with time and practice any failure you have will be overcome, have you worked on anything of particular beauty?

He grins,
'I am working on something particularly special at the moment. But its nowhere near finished.' his smile turns alien and frightening.
'I am dragging out its pain and once it has submitted I shall drain it dry and transform it into a work of art!'

Ellie shuddered at the instant transformation in Erskine, she should expect him to be every inch the terrifying creature he was, but in his more human forms it was easier to forget. Well I very much would love a sneak peak Erskine, I love to see the full transformation, if you would allow it, I promise not to touch this one.

He looked at her with the slightest frown on his features.
Erskine remembered only to well the last time Ellie had been shown one of his creations. He had been working on a male subject and had Ellie to come and see if his creation was beautiful. She had gladly come along to help him, but in her excitement had touched the males face and accidently pulled out a series of tubes feeding fluids into the male. Resulting in the skin melting off the face and ruining weeks of work.
'I have not forgotten Ellie, but I have forgiven.' he gently shook his head and smiled,
'Both Maria and you, trying to get early access to my masterpieces!' he moved to a filing cabinet and took out a folder marked D.Alexander then set it before Ellie.
'This is my most recent piece his second go under my care!'

Ellie looked at the folder and smiled the singer was well known for his many surgery's in the press that the human woman cooed over looking at Erskine she smiled Truly this was your last piece? His new look is very beautiful, almost alien. He is very popular with the herds and blood sacks, indeed the bands fortunes and it's recent announcement to do a final tour made us all very wealthy, so you have forgiven me that is good. So is that is a yes, you will show me your masterpiece?
She leans back into her chair Erskine always had the most comfortable furniture.
She wasn't sure why she enjoyed the awkward Erskines company maybe it was the total lack of being required to do or be anything else but her, besides more than once Ellie was convinced Erskine had shown her something so special even the emense strength of will couldn't stop her from falling victim to her clan curse.

'Persistent as always!' he thought and gently smiled.
'Maybe I will! But not now, now I must examine my work!' he stood and took her hand leading her into the centre of the room. He strolled around her several times, then he stopped infront of her,
'Undress please.'

Ellie smiled back at Erskine she pulled her skyscraper heels off and set them beside her holding on to Erskine for support.
You will have to unzip me Erskine, and I hope you can fix the scars you find.. with her back to him Ellie could almost feel Erskine stiffen, it was hard for her to suppress a giggle but she did. She turned holding the dress up for a moment before she stepped out of it, her full glory on show.

Scars! He clenched his jaw and frowned. Who would scar such a perfect creature? His mind couldn't comprehend it. Slowly he walked around her lifting her arms and checking every inch of her body. She could feel the strange extra movement on the underside of his multiple hands, as if he had hundreds of tiny little feelers.
Warm! He had forgot how warm she still was, he bent over and rested his ear against her chest, it still beats!
'I had forgotten your unique qualities Ellie, truly wondrous!'
He couldn't find any scars, again he frowned.
'Hmmmm, your jokes are still not funny!'

Ellie giggled as Erskine runs his hands over her, like hundreds of tiny feathers brushed against her she shivers, as he placed his head against her chest. Embracing his head she wrapped her arms lightly against him. obviously it beats Erskine, why would it not? Have you upgraded your hands since the last time I was here? she let go of his head not really wanting to upset him, he was notoriously uncomfortable with physical contact.

He had been listening to see if he could detect any irregularity in the heart beat when her arms came up and embraced him.
At first he was unsure what was happening and then he slipped away by using his arms to push from her. Brushing himself down he raised an eyebrow quizzicaly.
'What are you doing? I was trying to determine if your heart beat was regular.'
He seemed somewhat disturbed, taking a quick drink from his glass.
'Everything is still perfect Ellie, you may get dressed!'

Ellie could not deny the perverse pleasure she found in making people slightly uncomfortable, be them human or undead. She slipped into her dress wriggling slightly as it rises up over her hips. Why Erskine I don't know what you mean? What do you think I was doing? she smiled innocently as she turned and waited for Erskine to attend to her zip So what else have you been doing? There could be a small company coming up for sale soon, medical equipment md and the like is that of any interest to you or would you prefer shareholding instead.

His eyes narrowed as he watched Ellie get dressed and pretend she didn't know what he meant. He reached out and done up her zipper.
'That is mostly what I have been doing, of course I spent a few months arranging the lay out of my lab and then placing all the medical machinery you bought for me.' he thought for a moment about the company.
'Buy it for me Ellie dearest, I would make good use of its supplies!'

Ellie grinned broadly showing perfect teeth her eyes lit up with delight, good she would be able to get into another market for Erskine. OK Erskine I will make it so. Is there anything else I can do for you? There is an excellent opportunity to perhaps purchase the 1848 edition of Buchan's Domestic Medicine it's through a friend of a friend, and it's bound to be expensive, but when I heard whispering about this I thought of you, obviously you will cover my finder's fees and since we are pack it will cost an evening .. At claridges.

A rare book indeed, he would gladly take ownership of such a tome of medical knowledge. Claridges?
'I am touched you thought of me Ellie, yes I would like the book. What is a Claridges? I'm not sure I could find you one but if you were to describe it to me I could possibly make one!'
He smiled, honestly unaware of what Ellie is talking about.

Ellie laughed out loud her amusement entirely good natured. Ohh Erskine you are simply perfect, never change! It is a hotel, and eatery, the serve good food and better drink, the humans that frequently eat there wealthy and mostly indulge so their blood is exquisite. it's an excuse for Ellie to have some wonderful clothes sent for Erskine to wear and for herself to be seen with someone unknown and exotic. She made a mental not to get Mary out for an evening soon so they could properly catch up, she always spoke more freely when they were alone.

What could be gained from taking Ellie to the Claridges? He may be able to find his next subject, he was still receiving the steady flow of subjects from David, but American's are so doughy. His nose wrinkled as he thought of the last one, its internal organs so clogged with fat, it was probably a mercy killing it.
'So I attend a function at the Claridges with you and you aquire the medical journal for me! Very well I agree to these conditions!'

Ellie clapped her hands clearly delighted her smile infectious as she beams at Erskine Very well Erskine let me know when you are free and we will dine out. I will make sure the book is acquired as soon as possible. I'm sure I have taken enough of your time unless you wish me to stay and converse further I will go and unpack. Ellie stood finishing her drink she waited a moment to see if Erskine wished to talk further.

He nods as Ellie mentions the outing, she was an odd creature. Erskine couldn't understand the fasination with the mortals that Ellie possessed. He put it down to her youth and that each of them had different areas of expertise.
'Very well Ellie, continue your unpacking. I shall have to consult my diary as to when I am free.'
Not that he would ignore the arrangement but Ellie knew she would have to remind him of it.

Ellie smiled at Erskine she knew as soon as she left the basement he would forget, distracted by his own work and attention the attention for detail it required. It left little room for thoughts about anything else. Much as Ellie's vanity wanted to believe he would remember the engagement she doubted he would.
She set her glass down stepped swiftly to Erskines side and planted a kiss on his cold inhuman cheek. Well I will email or send you a message Erskine. It was pleasant to see you again and thank you for your hospitality, it is amazing as always.
With that she opened the door of the basement and ascended the stairs leaving Erskine with her pale pink lip gloss shining on his face.
