The Senfetti Residence

[Dierdra Daren]

She listened quietly to the propasals of Benito and Zarick. Yes, the Enemy did have to be taken care of. Plans were good, as she did not yet have one. She brushed a lose curl out of her face and closed her eyes to think for a moment. Leaning her head on her knee's, she pondered the benefits of a truce. Finially, she raised herh ead and brought her feet to the floor, Sitting up straight, she nodded to benito and Isabella.

I am Dierdra Daren, leader of the Crown Clan. We would like to honor a truce tillt his matter is taken care of. As of yet, the Enemy has posed no real threat to me or mine, but as i am sure the time will come, we will help you to fight them. The Crown Clan will listen to my orders, however.. i would like to keep them as much out of it as possible. If some chose to fight then so be it... i would prefer to take the Enemy out with a little of my people's blood spilled as possible. After all, without people, who would I lead?

She stood up and smoothed out the wrinkles in her pants and brushed off her shirt then walked over to Benito and offered her hand.

You seem to have a plan in mind already.. we will listen to what you have to say and decide any alterations we would like to add. For now, the fact that you have an idea is enough. I would also like to take a small break and confer with my clan as to thier progress in my abscence. If you will excuse me for a moment.

She nodded to Isabella

It is nice to meet you as well Miss. Your clan is respected by some of my members... they seem to like that you have wolves. Personaly.. I never could stand thier flea's.

She turned and headed out the door into the Hallway where Zarick was making his call. Her soft steps made no sound.. but he probably knew she was approaching anyway..

[Zarick Gunn]

By the time Dierdra had started after him, no one answered his call. He let it ring only a few times, thinking it best that his conversation not be over heard. They will call me when the priest arrives, calling wont make him turn up any faster.

She was silent, but his years spent with the Shaolin had given him a sense for when some one, or thing, was near. He flipped the phone shut, still facing away from Dierdra, and dropped it back into his pocket. "So what do you wish to know about me?" He then turned and looked at her, smiling.

After his conversation with Dierdra he would find Benito and share with him his plan, and then his requests. If his plan was chosen, he simply would have no requests either way he was going to get what he wanted.

He was still unsure of how elusive this....human....could be, that was why he wished to flush out the pest, to set a trap. The only part of his plan that needed working out was how to get the bait to him, with out him catching on that he was ment to discover it. I'm sure it will come to me soon, or someone else will figure it out. For now, I have other business to attend to.

[Isabella Rastafari]

*Choosing an ornately carved dark oak chair on which to sit, Isabella sat down on the plush red velvet cushion and crossed her long legs in front of her as she listened to Benito. Nodding her head in silent agreement as he mentioned his alliance with her clan, her amber eyes glowed as she gazed upon in him, a strong mix of passion, lust and pride burning in her gaze. He looked so handsome and powerful standing there as he addressed the other leaders.

Arching a slender dark brow in surprise as the male that she assumed to be the newly selected leader of the Annex Clan excused himself to speak to his clan without having the decency of introducing himself she rose from the chair, Tutting softly to herself. Turning to look at the other female as the leader of the Crown Clan introduced herself, Isabella listened with a warm smile upon her face. She explained her position in a respectful manner, proving her worth as a leader by trying to spare as many of her clan as possible. As she addressed Isabella and spoke of the respect for the First Blood Clan, Isabella returned the nod and smiled her thanks ~How nice of you to say..~ she murmured huskily before laughing at the flea comment. ~Ah they offer good protection and aren’t too much hassle, as long as you train them not to pee on the carpet..~ she chuckled softly as Diedre joined the male outside.

Alone with Benito once more, she took long quick strides to be by his side once more. Sidling up to him, she snaked a slender arm around his waist as she purred to him. ~They seem to like your idea, lover.. I knew that they would. Perry is getting far too sure of himself to think he could launch a full scaled attack on my headquarters.. but.. we shall have our revenge… I shall drain him slowly, so slowly that he feels my teeth deep in his flesh as I drink until there is nothing left to drink..~ she stood on tiptoe slightly to kiss his cheek, before the tip of her hot pink tongue poked out from between dark lips to lick the side of his cheek all the way down his throat until she came to the collar of his shirt. Nipping gently at his neck before she pulled away, Isabella slipped her other arm around his neck, her long dark nails raking his skin as she stroked the bare skin visible to her while she smiled up at him. ~If you are a good boy however, I might allow you to lick me clean after I’m finished.. ~ laughing, she sighed as her mind drifted back to the present situation.

~As for the leaders… I had worried how things would happen without the presence of Lilith.. she was always such a force to be reckoned with… but I must say, Im pleasantly surprised.. Diedra seems positively divine.. I could eat her all up.. smother her in cream and melted chocolate and devour her sweet goodness.. ~she licked her lips as she laughed. ~That other one though.. the male… he seems.. strange. Distant somewhat.. I mean, why did he not see fit to introduce himself? Is he foolish enough to think that we do not know who he is?~ *

[Dierdra Daren]

As she approached, she herd him click the phone shut then speak to her. wondering who he could of been talking too, she did not give him enough time to complete a conversation.. as was her plan. She leaned agianst the wall and met his gaze, her violet eyes never straying from thier target.

What do I want to know.. well that is a loaded question.. but I think it can be summed up in one simple one. What are you hiding. You smile way to much to be truthful. There is something you aren ott elling us. I admit that i do not keep up with other clan buisness.. trying to mantain my own is chore enough... But Lillith not bieng here.. that is strange.

She straightened up and walked over to him, her eyes never leaving his. She paused a step away from him and let her gaze raom the rest if him. Her eyes returned to his and she took the last step to bring them close, very close. She laid a hand on his chest and laughed.

But it is no matter. I will know one way or another. If an alliance is to work.. we will have to trust.

With that , she stepped back and headed for the door to the gardens.

[Zarick Gunn]

His first question about her was answered she was very intelligent. "I have had....a lot of things on my mind since taking over the Annex clan. I am waiting for a..." he chuckled a bit to himself before continuing "a friend is supposed to turn up at the playhouse soon."

Trust, that was one thing he seldom placed in people. It seems he would have to try and trust at least her, or just make her think he does.

Falling into step beside her he speaks "I'm sure you will all see my friend should he turn up while I am here, otherwise, you will just have to meet him on your own time."

He pulled his cell phone back out, and began to send a text message to his clan, it read "The priest, has he arrived yet? What do you say to going into a fight with some pesky humans? A truce between the Clans has been reached." He made sure to keep it out of Dierdra's sight, he would rather it be a suprise, his friend that is. Knowing she was smart enough to know that he was doing somthin with his phone, he said "I'm just a little anxious to see if my friend has arrived, I was making sure there were no messages left for me.

He knew where they were headed, which was part of the reason he chose this hallway to make his call in. It was closest to the gardens which she seemed to so enjoy. His thoughts then trailed off, I wonder if they have finished redecorating? That could be why they did not answer quickly. His eyes ran over the hallway they were in, taking in all the detailed work, then rested on Dierdra, waiting for her to speak.

[Marco Senfetti]

At the mansion, he waits in his room for his cousin to get done talking to the clan leaders. While waiting for his cousin, he is training with his custom-made katana by slashing through metal dummies. After he gets done training, he cleans his katana and sharpens it so it has an even sharper edge than before. When he gets done with cleaning and sharpening his katana, he goes to take a shower. While taking a shower, he cleans every spec of his body so he feels clean, focused, and ready to train some more. After his shower he goes to his room. When he gets back to his room the knock on his door detaches him away from his previously focused plan. And in opening the door he speaks with the servant telling him that his cousin had summoned him to the hall

“Give me five minutes” He said in a lower toned voice out of slight annoyance from the interruption of his training.

The servant bowed and went away down the hall and he turned to get ready to be presentable for Benito.

[Moridanu]

((Rping session between Benito and Isabella))


*He only gave short nods to them as they seemed to be on the same line that he was toeing. He didn’t want to worry himself too much about it until he could have full confirmation so he started to watch Isabella's interaction with the leaders. His eyebrow raised at the mention of Isabella's so called "pets". He just looked down at her as she spoke with him before closing his eyes and giving a short contented growling sound as she licked on his skin, as he looked at her next his eyes were starting to glow that icy blue. He listened to her words for he had his own questions and would wait until she was finished talking until he would respond. His opinions on the leaders seemed to be needed right now and in his mind he went over everything. Diedra wasn’t exactly what he had expected for a leader but he could see where her strengths did lie. While the other was familiar to him and yet so unfamiliar he decided he would keep a close eye out and wait to see what this Zarick was all about. Finally as she finished speaking he looked at her* They will come to know in time, that unity is the only way we shall overcome this. I propose a visit into the cradle of civilization to the tower of Babel. It is where humans believe God made them all speak different languages and now as it is buried underground its secret must be hidden. Written on those stonewalls is the complete and utter history of our people in Aramaic. This will be the first mission we go on, and what I need to be focused on when it comes to this subject. Onto an off subject my lover, *He moved blinking his eyes back to their normal colour as he sat in his chair facing the long table used for his guests* Since when do you have...wolves? Its not that I don’t see their beauty but rather, why is it you and Diedra both find it to be an intriguing subject?



*She listened to him speak, nodding when necessary if she agreed with him, which for the most part, she seemed to be doing. He was an intelligent man and she had faith that he had given this subject a great deal of thought and planning in order to call all the leaders together for one united goal. ~I think your idea sounds interesting lover..~she purred. ~An adventure into an underground relic to find some ancient stones that reveal the history of our people? Why, it could almost be an adventure movie that all the humans seem so keen on watching these days. We could get that skank to play me.. the one with the big lips.. ~trailing off and laughing as she heard him ask about her wolves, she shrugged. ~An ancient pact between my ancestor and the ancestor of the Pack, mean that I am forever bound to be protected by a pack of werewolves.. you know this already darling. These are the "wolves" of which Diedra spoke.. apparently I am getting a name for myself and my clan by employing werewolves to be our protectors rather than our enemies.. though to me, it just makes sense.. ~she shrugged again. ~ I can always lend you a few if you like Benito.. one of my favourites, the alpha of the Pack is on his way to Rome as we speak.~ *



*He watched her and smiled a little bit as she joked around about his idea but in the back of his mind he was truly worried. For Perry and the rest of his people to find this place before he did would be disastrous to their entire civilization. He just shook it off for he knew that the possibility of the enemy knowing was almost nil. He just watched her as she spoke of her werewolves. Shame he had forgotten, he had never himself encountered a lycan. He in a personal sense didn’t trust them to such an oath. He once again shook his head off the analysing of his lover's affairs. He looked at her and smiled* No thank you my love, I would have no reason for them besides for studying. They are granted unbelievable strength and quickness, which is great, but I am less than half a millennia away from gaining my one-thousandth year. I have strength, speed, and dark gifts that most vampires let alone werewolves do not share. I will be intrigued to meet this alpha however. *He gave a short nod with a grin before rising once again and straightening out his suit once again and shrugging a little bit.* So what’s your pleasure my love? We have the evening to ourselves.



*She smiled and looked around the room, arching a slender dark brow in surprise as he told her they had the evening to themselves. ~That’s it for the meeting then? You aren’t expecting the others to come straight back..?~ she looked at the door that the male and female had disappeared through and shrugged her shoulders. ~Ahh well, they will come back when they choose.. till then, I shall enjoy having you all to myself..~ she growled deep in her throat, as her hunger suddenly showed itself to her. It would seem that playing with Benito would have to wait.. for now. ~I thirst..~ she growled. ~ Do you still have hunting on these grounds Benito? I remember that time in March when you let those three brothers loose to roam the gardens before we took our time hunting them down.. ~ she shivered at the memory. ~Ahhh.. those were good times.. what about now though? Who shall I kill?~ Her eyes began to glow a faint amber as she licked her lips and looked to him expectantly*



*He looked at her and shrugged at her question with a grin before laughing with a nod at her comment. They would have to find him if they wanted him. They had no need to rush just yet but it was something that needed to be dealt with and soon. He watched her his eyes lighting up to the icy blue as she growled and he just grinned with a laugh as he looked at her.* With the new risks I unfortunately do not partake in any hunts nor allow them on the grounds. However my canary Ferrari is very lonely right now and the bars in Rome are full of fresh young blood. If you wish to feed why do we not go have ourselves a...drink...*He laughed with a grin and in a show his formed faded into a black mist and gently floated around the floor before swirling around her form, this would be like a chilling feeling without being cold, just as if he was playing his fingertips all over her body. The mist finally piled in behind her and once again materialized into his physical form. He kissed her neck once and moved from behind her towards the door* Shall we?



*She rolled her neck slowly over her shoulders as she took great delight in him swirling all around her in his mist form. The sensation was a delicious sense of pain, euphoria and anticipation all mixed into one and she enjoyed it emmensely, despite her disappointment by how quickly it all ended. With a deep, satisfied smirk upon her dark lips she purred ~What a wonderful idea Benito! It has been far too long since I was treated to Romes Nightlife.. and with you, the perfect guide, I am sure I will find exactly what I am looking for.. something young.. exotic.. spicy..~She laughed and reached up to kiss him passionately on the lips, her left hand reaching behind him to caress the back of his inner thigh, before trailing up to gently stroke across his ass. ~Let us feed together and bathe in the blood of our victims..~ she hissed as he moved away from her, towards the door. Falling into step behind him, she swayed slightly back and forth, almost dancing as she followed him through the door to wherever he might lead.*



*He grinned at her as she spoke. He knew exactly what she wanted and he would let her have it. The seduction and exoticness of their species was undeniable. They used tactics either like an animal or like no other. Intriguing one with their hypnotic eyes until they could lure their victim into an area where they may kill them. He shivered in the delight of the thought of the hunt of humans. He grinned at his thoughts and he looked to his aide Toni and smiled a little bit* I'm going out, let Marco know that he is in charge while I am away. *He grinned and led Isabella to the Ferrari opening the passenger's side door for her allowing her to sit. He then moved to the other side of the canary yellow Ferrari 360 Modena. He got in it and started the engine. He sped around the circle and down his driveway to which his gate opened up for him and he sped on down towards the downtown area of Rome.*



*It felt wonderful to be back inside the lush interior of Benito’s pride and joy. The car was a bold statement, a testament to Benito’s style and masculinity and she admired it for its beauty as she ran a few fingers over the seats while she waited for him to start the car. Always with her eyes on him, she sat back and enjoyed the ride as he shifted the car smoothly into gear and took off at a breakneck speed. Lights whizzed past them in a blur, and Isabella purred happily as she hunted about in the glove compartment for some CD's. Music always made the hunt that more intense, and she looked to Benito asking without words what CD he might suggest. Their bond as lovers meant that they did not always need to communicate via the spoken word.*




*He watched the stone roads as they came past some of the most beautiful architecture in all the world. He loved his home and loved the lasting beauty that human's left behind. They were fragile so they needed to make a statement and here he believed they made the most lasting impression. He grinned then as she looked at him and he pointed out the small Heart-A-Gram on one of the cases and signalled for the second song. The music was "Rip Out the Wings of a Butterfly" by H.I.M. and it was great music. It showed not only a certain amount of love but the lyrics of the song seemed forbidden just as their activities might be looked upon by humans as forbidden.*




*Nodding, she chose the CD he pointed at and popped it into the CD player, grinning as the music was soon blaring out of the speakers. Tapping her foot in time to the music, she allowed one slender hand to drape over his nearest thigh as he drove, her pale blue eyes taking in the beauty of the old buildings that lined the streets she and Benito were now speeding down. Australia was a relatively new country compared to Romes heritage, and she sat quietly in her seat studying the buildings around her while Benito drove. Although her thoughts had strayed to architecture, the hunt was still very much on her mind and the bass of the music thrummed in perfect harmony with her humming veins as the hunger ate away inside of her.*



*He smiled as the music filled in the interior of the car, it was crystal clear and perfect for the type of mood that they were both in. He started to laugh in a way as he thought of what he was about to do. He sped even faster through the older part of Rome before he finally came out onto a normal street leading to the many lights downtown. He finally came to a large building with a crowd of people waiting outside to get inside. It was a more prominent bar that many of the richest people in Rome came to. It gave also the people in Rome a chance to mingle with the rich and powerful. Therefore many wanna-be nobodies that wouldn’t be missed by society. He parked the car at the entrance and stepped out, the other door was opened for Isabella, He tossed his keys to the valet and went to Isabella's side* Come let us hunt..



*Long legs clad in her tight black pants uncrossed and stretched out as she stepped out of the car, smiling cooly to the valet before Benito was once again by her side. Fixing a detatched grin upon her dark lips and nodding her agreement, she slipped her hand into his, interlacing their fingers together as they walked into the club. Taking great delight in the groans and protests from the people lining up outside, Isabella waltzed past them as she took great pleasure in not having to wait. The music was loud, though not particularly good and Isabella hissed in distaste as she shot Benito a look and growled ~We should of brought our own music..~ as they pushed their way through the crowd towards the bar. It was surrounded by blue neon lights, giving Benitos skin a bluish tinge as she looked upon him once before her tongue flickered out to find his in a heated kiss. The thrill of the hunt, and of being with him again were like drugs to her already euphoric state of being and her pupils dilated dramatically while she kissed him. As her right thigh began to tremble, she raised a slender dark brow in surprise as she had never noticed him having THAT kind of effect on her before. That was until she realised, her trembling thigh was actually the result of her cell phone which she had instructed to vibrate if she should get a call. Knowing instantly that it was Rose on the other end of the line, Isabella detangled herself from Benito and spoke quickly in his air. ~I need to speak to Rose, to make sure she and the Warehouse realy are all right. I’ll be in the Ladies Room, taking this call. Don’t wait for me lover, if you see something that catches your eye, have your fun. I shall find you shortly on my return. ~ she licked his ear before she slipped away from him, pulling the small phone out of one pocket while the other hand reached up to brush her long dark hair over one shoulder. Snapping open the phone she yelled into the receiver ~Hang on Rose! I need to find somewhere a bit quieter..~ just as she reached the bathrooms. As her hand pressed up against the door to push it open however, her cool blue gaze fell upon a young blonde surfer type who couldn’t seem to keep his own blue eyes off her. Wolf whistling appreciatively, he gave her his best smile and motioned for her to come closer. She just smiled and nodded, mouthing the word ~later~ before she disappeared into the Ladies toilet. Determined to have complete privacy for her phone call, Isabella glared at the trio of young women giggling in front of the mirror until they fell quiet, turned to look at her in fear, and quickly scurried out the door. Stooping down to check under the doors of the other stalls, she was finally satisfied that she was alone, and raised the phone once more to her ear.

~Sorry for the delay, sweet sister.. I needed to make sure I could hear you. Now tell me… what the hell happened? And are you REALY alright? Seb said you were, but you know what the Lycans are like.. always spinning me bullshit they think I wanna here..~ she trailed off, listening to Rose. After a ten minute phone call, she hung up, slipped the phone back into her pocket and pushed through the door once more. The young blonde surfer from earlier, had now positioned himself beside the door so that she had no hope of escaping him. She laughed as she realised how ironic his move had been, as she smiled and accepted his offer to buy her a drink. Allowing his hand to find hers, she fixed that same detached smile upon her face as she followed him to the bar, her eyes searching the crowd for Benito. *

[Marco Senfetti]

While starting to walk to the hall he wonders what news Benito has for him.*He takes his katana in his hand and moves it close to his body just in case.*

"This better be important or I'm not going to be happy because Benito knows I don't like to be interupted while I train."

Then he continues to walk to the hall to see what news Benito has for him.

[Dierdra Daren]

As she enters the gardens, a smile lights up on her face.. She nods to Zarick and moves over to one of the flower beds kneeling down.

I believe I know what Benito is after. Our entire race working together.. fighting together not agianst each other. Though it seems like a good idea, you and i both know that it will never work. There will always be some who think they are above the rest and need to prove it. In this is our weakness. The humans will folow thier leader, usually without question. Tell me.. when the time comes for you to back down from command and let someone else lead.. will you be able too? Or will you fight to remain in control?

She pauses and reaches out to gently touch one of the tree's in the garden.

The tree is as we are. Strong, powerful, not willing to give up anything.. space. the air.. nothing. It's roots branch out far and wide, no root wanting to touch another, each seperate, yet together, they make the whole strong. If you cut us down, we will grow back strong.. but it will take a long time.

Kneeling down, she touched a flower near the tree's base.

This is the humans, they seem so small and faril compared to us. However, if you cut off this flower... it will grow back quickly, just as frail, but fast.

She reached her hand into the dirt and dug up the flower, roots and all

What we need to do is not only kill the flower, but the entire root system. Kill the heart of it. I think that this Perry person is a good place to start.

She drops the flower at the base of the tree and stands up.

If we uproot them.. then they are dead.

[Zarick Gunn]

Zarick listened intently to her speach, once finished he spoke his reply, "I am a warrior, I will only be able to swallow my pride for so long. At the same time I will do everything within my power to ensure the survival of our race, even if I must swallow my pride. Once this enemy is out of the way, I intend on returning to my status as a leader, should it have been changed."

He then paced a bit before finaly deciding to tell Dierdra his plan to flush the Enemy out. "First the Enemy must "intercept" a message from me asking the Spirito clan for permission to kill the pope. Of course we will have more than just I there, waiting for the Enemy to show. They will be trying to save the pope or they will wait for me to attack then try and get me, either way they will most likely make their presence known. If they decide it is most likely a trap the pope still dies, and they will be more inclined to think next time we are not bothering with setting a trap for them, and we will move on to a different plan." Zarick shook his head "I know there are still some things to work out but it was the best I could come up with in a short amount of time."

His eyes fell upon the flower once more and Dierdra's comparison of the flower and humans rang in his ears once more, "I never was particularily fond of flowers."

He heard the sound of a car start and then tear away from the residence. "It appears that Benito may have just left, I doubt a servant would drive in such a manner." He then thought a moment and remembered that he had parked his rental car not too far away from the residence and smiled, "What would you say to finding something to do? I'm sure Benito wouldn't mind, after all we are guests are we not?"

[Benito Senfetti]

He wanted to whimper in protest to her seperation from him but he just let his eyes flow out to find a victim of his own. He would have much rather had a surprise attack hunting WITH Isabella but if she gave him permission to use his charms to get his prey alone then he would feast on the blood of a young female tonight and then goto bed with Isabella.

His eyes had already spotted his potential victim dancing among many of the crowd on the floor. Her hair was straight and jet black and she wore a tight, short one piece dress. Many would see his approach as a young man searching for sexual attention from some tramp who looked like she would give it out. Much rather he fed on her lack of self-respect so that he might entice her better than a female who may be looking out for herself and by the way she was looking dancing against everything that had a dick this was going to be easy...

His movements were fluid and precise and his eyes were dead set on her. The whole floor seemed to move out of his way as his strides made him seem like some foreign royalty, he hoped this would help her notice him and like he had planned she took the bait. Her eyes were instantly locked onto his as she began to try to impress him with her moves on the dancefloor. Little did she know she was marking her blood for dinner. He smiled a normal smile his fangs not extended giving him a rather...human...look. She began to get more excited and he could smell it, he could feel her pulse racing as he got closer and as he side stepped into the crowd he came up behind her and laughed alittle bit.

"May I have this...dance?" He almost whispered into her ear his lips ever so close to her ear, he had a rule now to not touch his prey but rather tease them with his alluring nature.

She danced against him and he just grinned until his eyes came onto Isabella and he pierced a hole through the crowd looking at her as he danced, his eyes flashed to let her know he was not only hungry but in dire need of her physical attention as soon as she could spare it.

"~My love...the night's hours belong to you, let this hunt go quickly so that you may attend to my physical needs, And so that I may tend to yours.~" This form of telepathy was sacred between them as more ancient vampires but also as lovers.

[Isabella Rastafari]

*The music inside the club threatened to rupture her throbbing eardrum as she allowed her suitor to lead her to the bar. Her roaming lilac orbs quickly found Benito through the crowd, as they seemed to be drawn to him almost instantly. A secret smile played upon her dark lips as she followed his line of sight until she could see his intended target. Eyeing the young woman up and down, Isabella muttered ~Pathetic whore..~ before she dismissed the woman from her mind. Knowing that Benito would enjoy his feast, Isabella focused her attention on her own.

He had now reached the bar, and smiled back at her to ask what she wanted to drink. She smiled back, slid up beside him and whispered ~Something red and spicy..~ before her hot wet tongue darted out to lick his earlobe before she took it in her mouth and bit down gently. As he grinned and turned around to place the order, her jaw clenched harder as she bit down on his lip hard enough to draw blood. Sucking the precious liquid that managed to escape from one small puncture, she stood back reluctantly as he yelled and reached up to grab his ear. As he looked at her in shock and pain, she smiled as demurely as she knew how and let her eyes lock on his. Instantly, his hand floated down from his bleeding ear as he smiled and licked his lips. With glazed eyes, he turned and placed his order while Isabella felt her gaze travel back to Benito.

He was now dancing with the skank that he had selected as his next meal, and Isabella stared coolly at the couple while they danced. Although she knew that he was merely luring the hapless slut into an early grave, she could not deny the rage of jealousy that began to bubble just under her calm exterior. Almost as though he had sensed her gaze himself, Benito looked up and locked his gaze with hers. His eyes flashed and she felt herself weaken at the knees as he communicated with her telepathically. She smiled back, her own eyes smouldering in an intense heat that darkened her usually pale blue orbs, just as the man in front of her turned and handed her a large glass of a rich dark red wine. Smiling her thanks, she took the glass from him and emptied the glass quickly using six long swallows. Handing him back the now empty glass, she laughed at the shocked look upon his handsome face before she stepped up closer to him and kissed him on the lips, the scent of the red wine making the kiss extra spicy. Resisting the urge to bite his bottom lip, she moaned into his mouth ~Let’s get out of here.. is there an alley around here or something?~ He groaned and nodded his consent as his hand found hers and he began to lead her through the jumping crowd. Although her gaze was no longer on him, she knew that Benito was still connected with her thoughts as she sent him the message:

~I wont be long lover… have your fun, and then come find me… I’ll get this one warmed up for you and then we can both feast together.. ~

The throbbing music was loud enough to drown out the insane chuckle that bubbled from her dark lips as she followed the blonde man outside to his death.

Ten footsteps took her to the nearest alley where the man turned and looked at her with hungry eyes. As he began groping her, she leaned into his neck, barely resisting the urge to bite into his jugular and managing to settle for his earlobe instead. Sucking hungrily, her extended canine making the hole bigger, she told herself to slow down as she waited for Benito, ignoring the weak protests of the surfer as he lost himself in the euphoric pain she was making him feel.*

[Benito Senfetti]

Since she had offered for him to feed with her and his bloodlust had not risen to a height that would dictate his need for two different humans, he began to consider letting this prey go. After many moments of just dancing against her, warming her up he suddenly disappeared from behind her into the waves of people. His intention was to meet Isabella for feeding in the alley that he knew she was in.

His appearance came just split seconds from his disappearance from the inside of the establishment. He perched upon the flat top of the club and looked down upon Isabella and her food. His grin came quickly as he hopped from the top and gently floated down to where they were standing. He looked to Isabella and grinned.

"Dinner my love?"

[Dierdra Daren]

Yes I believe that getting out to.. explore would be a wonderful idea. i have not seen this land for many years.

She had her own reasons for wanting to leave. There were people she needed to try and contact, others who she may be able to use. Perhapps another alliance to be made. She tossed her hair over her shoulder and smiled.

But first i would like to change into something more suitable for a night out on the town. excuse me.

She wandered inside and grabbed her bag that she had dropped in the hallway.She slipped into a nearby room and quickly changed from her pants to a short black skirt and a violet bodice. Her knee high boots made soft clicks on the ground with the hels as she headed back outside. She finished tying her belt into place as she rounded the corner where she had left Zarick.

Shall we?

[Zarick Gunn]

Zarick shook his head as Dierdra left to change, not expecting her to be as quick as she was nor as attractive. He made little indication as to his approval of her appearance, and merely said "Better now?"

They walked towards where he had left his car. He purposely took a longer route, winding through some of the Senfetti gardens since they were somthing Dierdra obviously enjoyed. That and he was unsure of where the two should go.

As they neared the car, a black Ferrari, Zarick looked at Dierdra and inquired "Do you have any preferance as to where we go first?" He opened the door for her to get into the car, then went around to his door and removed his trench coat that now wrapped around the shotgun he had recently purchased. He then concealed the two handguns.

He looked at Dierdra "Such an unsatisfying weapon, but it appears circumstances are arrising that may call for the use of them." He was purposly vague, feeling it an unimportant topic to continue. "So where to?"
