The demon didn't acknowledge Midnight even opening his mouth; he was far too intrigued with the girl. Amora, on the other hand, was hardly enjoying the man staring at her so eagerly. 'What on earth does he want from me??' Amora wondered, when she let out a startled noise as Alex jumped on the horse's rear and took the reins. This seemed to amuse the newcomer, but all he did was step back so the horse wouldn't accidentally trample him.<br/><br/>Amora could see the irritated look on his face, a vein popping out of his neck that meant only one thing; someone was going to get it. Amora swallowed, hoping it wasn't her this time, as she watched her master walk over to the proud-looking demon. A sharp inhale of breath was all that came out of the human as the demon doubled over, looking both surprised and pleased at the same time.<br/><br/>Midnight's actions aggravated the guards, who drew out their swords in a moment's notice. Midnight seemed glad he could fight, Amora could suppose he wanted to fight since yesterday when those stupid demons had knocked her out. Still, it was surprising to her he would tick off someone with 6 guards, but she didn't linger on the subject as Alex turned the horse and rode away before things got ugly.<br/><br/>The demon, after regaining the breath that was knocked out of him, leaned against a tree, watching his men attack. They were more for brute strength and intimidation rather than fighting a lone, agile demon, but he could care less. He glanced in the direction the horse went, having half a mind to follow them, but thought better of it. No need to irk this demon off any more. He walked over to them, holding up a hand. The bodyguards grabbed Midnight's arms to prevent him from cutting their leader, while he smiled. "No need to get so worked up about it. Forgive me, I can hardly contain myself when seeing such a lovely human specimen such as that." With a extravagant flick of the wrist, he produced a card and held it out to Midnight. "Come to my gala this evening. I'm sure it will make up for my rude behavior."<br/><br/>-------------------<br/><br/>Amora sat on the horse, looking down at a dozing Alex. The thought of leading the horse away entered her mind, but she shook it away as soon as it appeared. Midnight was ticked as it was, no need to irritate him any more. "Is he... always this protective of his... property?" she wondered aloud.
