That's a little inaccurate. In previous Vlad novels, when he was still in the city, he would never contact Kiera directly, instead he would just leave word in the street that he wanted to talk to her, and she would appear. The reason stated at the time was that Kiera didn't allow psionic communication with anyone.. and those who've read all the books can probablly guess why she wouldn't allow psionic communication with anyone.
