Anton Shudder had just checked the door to the remnets and feeling satisfied he when down to his personal area. He had just finished a book when he heard a feminine voice call his name. He walked through to the front and realised that it was Valkyrie Cain calling him.
"Anton, there you are!"
"Valkyrie, I must admit I wasn't expecting to see you here. Not that I'm complaining."He said as he gestured her through to the back room
She smiled as she followed him through to the private living room.
"Well, I heard you were in Ireland so I thought I'd pop by." They sat and chatted about random things. Never getting bored, until they came across the small issue of Daquesse.
"Are you and Skulduggery assigned on that case?" When she nodded he continued," Do you know what your going to do about her?" As he finished speaking Valkyrie started crying. He was kind of torn between what to do, ask what was wrong, hug her or what? So he decided to do both.
"Valkyrie, look at me . What's wrong?" He asked pulling slightly away from the hug
"Please don't kill me but I'm Darquesse!" He didn't know how to react. Should he be angry? Should he be mad? Instead he just hugged her tighter, his face in her hair 'mmm her hair smells really nice' he thought surprising himself somewhat 'NO NO NO NO NO! I cannot be attracted to her but good God I am! When did this happen?' After she had calmed down he let her go somewhat reluctantly, she got up thanked him for everything and left. He looked at that glorious sight and thought to himself 'damn'
