Heightened security on pack lands meant that traveling to Tao's house on four paws was a luxury and a comfort that Riley could not afford. He had taken to driving his old rusty four by four to meet with the vampire. His truck was loud and obnoxious, but it was a decidedly human machine, and the smell of gasoline and exhaust masked his scent. He pulled up the driveway a few minutes before the time he was scheduled to meet with Tao, anticipation growing in the pit of hs stomach as he shut off the engine, stepped out of the truck, and climbed the stairs to enter the building. The place was very familiar now, he could smell himself in it, smell the absence of scent that spelled out Tao's presence, and the dead blood that had once unnerved him now only registered on the farthest edges of his perhipfery. He passed through the hallways with ease, and entered Tao's office confidently. Once inside, his lips parted and then widened into a toothy grin.

"Tao." He said, striding to the vampire, the excitement clear in his eyes and bubbling up in the warm aura of power that surrounded him. Without another word, he reached out one of his broad hands, wrapping it around the back of the vampire's neck, drawing him in. He licked a drop of his drink from the corner of his mouth and then pressed a searing kiss to his lips. "Mm." He groaned and inhaled deeply, eyes closing briefly and then opening when he realized that there was an unfamiliar scent on the vampire. He pulled back slightly, leaving mere inches between their faces. "Tao.." He repeated, his eyebrows furrowing. "You smell like silver." He inhaled again, "-and shifter. But-" Confusion crossed his face. "Another dead? I hadn't heard anything."
