As the Enforcer approached, the emblem of her occupation on full display, the two bouncers stepped closer to the center of the door, barring her entry. They stared back at her, stoic and unwavering, as she announced her business with their boss. "Wait right there," one of them said. The two vampires shared a slightly puzzled look before one of them leaned over and whispered to his partner; as far as they knew, Lydia hadn't made any plans to meet with the law. "Watch this one," he said, his voice hushed. "I'll go figure out what the boss wants to do with her."<br/><br/>The bouncer turned to open the door, but before he could, Adrian walked through it, bumping into the two men and causing them to step aside. "Oh, I'm sorry," he said, although his voice held no sincerity whatsoever. Adrian passed them, took one look at the human woman in her red uniform, and began to laugh boisterously. "Oh, you're here already? That's just too good." His face lit up with amusement, but his smile was anything but friendly. It was predatory and sadistic - he was already relishing the headache that Lydia would have when she realized that she was wrong. "Be careful with Lydia in there," he teased, this time addressing the Enforcer directly, "she likes the cute ones. She might just try to eat you for dinner." With his comment, the blond vampire bared his fangs and hissed at her before bursting into laughter once more, then walking away.<br/><br/>Paying no mind to Adrian's theatrics, the one bouncer entered the club and made a beeline for Lydia's office. He knocked on the door.<br/><br/>On the other side, Lydia sat, still in the same position as she finished the contents of her glass. Adrian was always a hassle, but she was at least relieved that her meeting with him was as brief as it had been. She had hoped to relax for the rest of the evening, maybe spend some time on the first floor - she hadn't fed yet, so finding a human snack was also on the agenda - but of course, as the day would have it, someone<i>else</i>was clawing for her time.<br/><br/>"This better be important," she said, annoyed.<br/><br/>The bouncer peeked into her office politely, not opening the door all the way. As big as The Coven's guards were, and as capable as they were, none of them enjoyed bothering Lydia. She was a force to be reckoned with when she was ticked, and sometimes the looks of displeasure she shot were enough to make anyone want to hide. If there was one thing that really pissed her off, it was when people disrupted her time alone, and even worse if she hadn't had her daily dose of blood yet.<br/><br/>"Uh, there's an Enforcer outside. Says she's got important business with you." He paused. "What do we do with her?"<br/><br/>Lydia swore under her breath.<i>I swear to the gods, Adrian, if this is your fault...</i>"Well, did she say<i>why</i>she had business with me? She knows what this place is, right?"<br/><br/>"Uh, no, she didn't mention why..." He trailed off. "I could...go ask, if you-,"<br/><br/>"Just-," she sighed again, rubbing her temples as she grew terribly impatient, "send her up here." She didn't want to put the effort into walking downstairs to meet with some nosy Enforcer. Words could not describe how deeply she despised those pathetic human officers, who walked around with their little toys as if they could hold a candle to her kind. Silver bullets were a pain in the ass, that was true, but a vampire who truly knew how to use their strength to their advantage wouldn't even stay in position long enough to be shot. If she could, she'd suck them all dry, if only to humble them. Unfortunately, Lydia had too many responsibilities to do that.<br/><br/>"But, Madame, this is the second floor, and-,"<br/><br/>"Charles, I'm the one who makes the rules. I'll break them if I please. Send. Her," she repeated, making it clear that she wouldn't repeat herself anymore.<br/><br/>The bouncer swallowed the rest of his sentence and nodded before leaving her office. Lydia drummed her fingers on the desk as she waited, wondering how she'd handle the situation. It was just one Enforcer, which was no big deal, but if the human decided that she had a problem with The Coven, she could potentially bring her little friends and provide a greater nuisance. Lydia gritted her teeth at the thought. She'd snap someone's neck before she let them disrupt her business. Maybe she could just drain the Enforcer and send her on her way, lightheaded and confused.<br/><br/>Before long, Charles returned outside to his partner and the Enforcer. "Come with me," he told her. "But, we're going to have to hold your weapons." The other bouncer held open his hands expectantly. "No weapons or religious paraphernalia are allowed inside. No exceptions."
