I think the birth of the child will give Harry the clue he needs to cure Thomas, and an insight into the true nature of the Whamps.
Without looking at him, she extended a hand. Corb reached into his robes and withdrew a length of chain maybe ten feet long from them. One end was attached to a steel band around the base of his throat, mostly concealed by his robes. He handed the other end to the Titanic woman.A pet King, how precious.

And his true love thing reads like true lust. You don't turn love off and on like a spigot. And he's developed a fascination with threesomes. He has two out of the oven and one in development with Murphy. I'm as happy go lucky as the next guy, but this tires me out just reading it. At this rate Harry ain't gonna have any energy for the BAT.
And who in Gods name puts a cripple in charge of security? Nobody seems to think it's absurd that Carlos can just barely walk but he in charge of the security detail. Jim on the other hand thought it was such a good idea he used it twice in the same book? And the White Council has a fornication detector? Really?
"Let me guess," I said. "The first feeding is lethal."This is fairly straight forward unless there is some way to read first feeding like it isn't really a first feeding, vampire style. This is pretty cut and dry for Jim. Normally he weasels better. It's sloppy. It won't keep me from getting the Kindle version and the audio book of Battle Ground. But it is what it is.
"Always," Thomas said.

You should put the summoning circle in the continuity errors thread.someone pointed out years ago now(cannot remember who) that his circle actually changes from copper to bronze and back to copper before he ever had it upgraded. So yea, something's off about that..

Inari went after Harry without knowing what was happening, so she (and other nascent Whampires) are still driven to feed before the Hunger reaches critical mass at the (ahem) culmination of the first sex act. In the Bigfoot shorts the college whampire WAS feeding on River Shoulders kid, the kid (I forget both their names, sorry) was just too damn strong to die.
So a larval Hunger is still driven too and actively eats, it just doesn't give all the perks/pitfalls until the Hunger gets it's first kill.
I don't think Inari could help it, it may even coexist when she menstruates for the first time. When she menstruates her body is able to reproduce.. Now there are a number of reasons why sex at that age may not be a good thing, but I doubt the Hunger takes that into account. Hormones start firing and in White Court vamps it triggers the seduction urge big time. The first time this happens the host is more or less at it's mercy, Lord Raith knows that, that is why he sent Inari to Harry. To seduce him, have uncontrolled sex which would lead to his death and the full awakening of her Hunger..
Jeeze I leave the forums for 6 years... come back... and this is how I say hello after all this time. :-\Who cares? The important thing is that you are back. Just join the fun and don't worry :D
