Title: Conversation between Lara and Harry
Post by: RobReece on October 07, 2025, 03:06:22 AM
I seem to remember a conversation between the two of the one of there more mutual interest and attraction ones where Lara expresses her opinion that they could become partners,  not just prey and succubus.   But I haven't been able to find it.  Does anyone remember this and where it is?

  I think it was in White Night, towards the end.

I think Lara may have been hinting that way, but IIRC never stated it outright.

I thought Harry took it as merely Lara trying to lure him into her clutches; not a genuine suggestion/offer. 
Before he left Raith Manor, Harry made sure to reject the offer (in as insulting a fashion as he could manage).

I'd looked there, it's not spelled out.  Maybe I'm mis-remembering?

It isn't spelled out but it is sure implied.

I don't recall Lara ever spelling that out in a plain-talk manner, something that was unambiguously a suggestion/offer.

She has spent her whole life (a couple of centuries at minimum) working the flirt-and-tempt angle.  Even if she meant it seriously, I think she'd couch it in flirt-and-tempt ways (and, consequently, Harry would always see it as a predator's lure).

I simply don't have the time to research it at the moment, but it is clearly implied from the get go.  If you think about it Lara has all the qualities that Harry wants and loves in a woman, only drawback is she is an unapologetic vampire, he is aware of that also at all times.
