Romstrahd was straight to the point which was good since he had little time to waste on small talk.<br/><br/>"Ah yes, before we begin I would like to apologize for my...friend's behavior, he is...difficult at times, but nonetheless he is irreplaceable in a fight. As well, the previous Prince, the one who sent the invitation to you not to long ago met an unfortunate departure, as such as his second in command I have taken on the reign of prince."<br/><br/>He leaned back into his chair and closed his eyes for a moment, thoughts running through his head. True there was a lot ahead of the preternatural creatures of this city, but first things first.<br/><br/>Knowledge is power<br/><br/>His eyes snapped open, instantly focused on his guest. "I'm sure by now you are quite aware of how still this city is. As we all know there has been a longstanding bloody rivalry between Lycans and Vampires, as well as the Mages. A new threat has come to our city it seems. As far as any of us can tell it's a group of highly trained and heavily prepared and armed mortal humans who seem to know far too much about us. They are a threat to us all, as a matter of fact, their latest move resulted in the destruction of the Elysium. Now as far as I can tell, since Aviose was quite tight-lipped about you and your nature, I have a task for you, and perhaps more after. For the sake of all our kind, because I believe this threat either has or will go beyond this city, I need anything and everything you can find about these humans."<br/><br/>Enoch sat for a moment before beginning, "In other words anything you know now would be of help, and anything you can find out will be of great use. Since I know this may be outside of norm to ask of some of us, if you need a form of payment, I am not above doing so."<br/><br/>Ladypuppet 11-10-2008 07:51 AM<br/>*She looked up slightly confused at his words. She shivered softly and nods slowly.* â€œThen why did you ever approach me or come around me beforeâ€¦you always acted like Iâ€™m not there.â€ *She blushed softly and looked up at him blushing softly as he kissed her forehead and shivered softly again.* â€œI never wanted to hide myself from everyone I was just to afraid I would hurt someone againâ€¦â€* Looking down she remembered when she first discovered her powers she had nearly killed her younger brother.*<br/><br/>â€œI just didnâ€™t want to hurt someone I cared about again.â€* Her voice trailed off she knew that Dherris understood what she meant by what she had said. Everyone around her had outcast her and called her a freak of nature because of what she had down. When she first started learning how to control her powers, all of the friends she had known from childhood had even turned on her even her own family. She had no one left there for her but herself she was always scared to open up to someoneâ€¦she was always scared about being hurt again.*<br/><br/>*She felt him tilt her chin up to look at him her midnight blue eyes met his and she looked away, she was unable to look him in the eyes. Her heart skipped a couple of beats as his lips touched hers in the kiss it sent chills up her spine as she felt him pull away.* â€œI knew I have a heart I just donâ€™t show it â€¦ Iâ€™m scared of being hurt.â€* She looked up and leaned softly to him her head being buried deep into the nape of his neck.* â€œIâ€™ am not being selfish. Maybe I amâ€¦â€* Looking down she knew that she had been selfish for many yearsâ€¦She didnâ€™t want to lose someone elseâ€¦she wouldnâ€™t let the council stand in her way.* â€œDherris if I want to you to come back to the council but I know that you canâ€™t they wonâ€™t let youâ€¦ And Iâ€™m not the only one that is selfish you had killed a man for looking at your girlfriend I would call that selfish as well.â€* She commented, she snuggled to him and sighed softly.* â€œI think that are time is coming to an end I need to get back to my lifeâ€¦I looks like the new prince wants to have a meeting. Would you care to join me?â€ *She looked at him standing up and wiped her tears away and gave him a true smile not a forced one. She held out her hand and offered him up. Before letting him up she leaned down and kissed him tenderly before blushing softly and looked into his eyes.* â€œWell come on slow poke, I donâ€™t have all night, and I still owe you that dance so shall we.â€ *She was going to push off the princes request for a little longerâ€¦Just to have this time with Dherris.*<br/><br/>Forgotten Wolf 11-10-2008 09:25 PM<br/>Dherris shook his head, â€œI canâ€™t believe that slander is still flying aroundâ€¦ I have never killed anyone without good reason. The incident they keep twisting was because of the weretiger I was dating at the timeâ€¦ You know the head bouncer over at that vampireâ€™s club The Havenâ€¦ Any way she didnâ€™t like how someone was looking at me and got a more than a little angryâ€¦ She wasâ€¦ is very temperamental. So anyway some how the blame got put on me for the entire thing, and I would have just used my magic to terrify the man rather than kill him if I was that possessive.â€ He sighs and closes his eyes for a second, â€œâ€¦ Of course that was the club that later got me exiled for making the patrons â€˜enjoyâ€™ themselves (and others) a bit too muchâ€¦â€<br/><br/>His eyes open as he looks up at Cutra with a smile forming back at her sight and smile. He takes her hand and returns her kiss. â€œFor tonight Cutra, I am all yours.â€ He says charmingly before putting a small kiss on the back of her hand. His smile just grew at her little taunt to him and let her help him slightly get up from the couch.<br/><br/>Once he was standing though, he didnâ€™t let go of her hand and didnâ€™t go to follow her out or head back out to the club. Instead he pulls her back and spins her (using a little of his magic to influence her body so she wouldnâ€™t lose her balance with the sudden action) back into him. He wraps his arms around her and holds her lovingly in place with her back against his chest as he bring his face beside her. He kisses her neck before whispering a light tease in her ear, â€œbut I thought you didnâ€™t know how to dance?â€ He wore a smile through the whole thing.<br/><br/>Ladypuppet 11-10-2008 10:03 PM<br/>*Looks up at him and sighs soflty.* "Aye it is people don't know how to keep there mouth..."*She looked up at him and sighs soflty and shook there head.* "I know the story i have heard the story for so long its not funny Dherris."*<br/><br/>*She smiles sodlty and purred at him as he returned her kisses.* "Are you sure that could be dangerous..*"She cooed out playfully at him and snuggeld to him soflty.*<br/><br/>*She was quiet supprised when he didn't realease her heand and looked up at him she felt her body move forward and up agaisnt him and shivvered. Looking up at him she quivvered soflty against him as she blushed at him slightly.* " I can but i'm not very good at it thought. so if i step on your feet not my fualt."* She giggled at him playfully as she moved up and teased his neck kissing it soflty.*<br/><br/>(Sorry kind of a crappy post)<br/><br/>Forgotten Wolf 11-11-2008 08:37 PM<br/>((Donâ€™t worry about itâ€¦ If you think you are running out of ideas for this romantic interaction then feel free to skip ahead to meeting with the prince.))<br/><br/><br/>Dherris just smiles back down to her and lets her tease his neck a little longer. â€œThen how about we keep this private?â€ He loosens his grip before spinning her again like a dancer but this time stops her expertly so she is facing him. â€œIâ€™m sure with a little of your magic you can adjust the soundproofing of these walls to let the dance floorâ€™s music in. That way you only have my feet to worry about instead of the other dancers and we can enjoy each others company to the fullest.â€ He says quietly close to her face, slipping in a quick peck on the lips before she could answer.<br/><br/>â€œâ€¦ And donâ€™t worry about stepping on my toesâ€¦ It would take more than that to deter me from you.â€ He states smoothly as he takes one of her hands. He brings it up to about chest level on him and covers it as well with his other hand. â€œSo, what shall it be milady?â€ He questioned the archmage softly and mentally prepared himself for what he might expect in this nightâ€™s adventuresâ€¦
