Eros' blood? Well, that's...impossible.

I frowned. "You mean a vial?"

Hypnos observed me. His shoulders drooped in a lazy gesture. "No, I want to suck him dry -- of course a vial."

I rolled my eyes. Either way, How am I gonna steal blood from the god of love?

It's not like Eros will stretch out his arm and say, 'sure Penny, I'll be happy to give you my blood'.

Hypnos smiled, displaying yellowish teeth. "You do that, but just a heads up, if I somehow find a way out on my own, I'll be coming for you."

Someone is coming.
