A Shining Light at the End


It'll be another day just like the last. Stand around the city, inhale the annoying fumes around, listen to all the noises going on. The explosions, the gun fire. The screams and shouts. She just stands there watching with a slight detachment by appearance.After a while boredom has to set in because she moves finally and heads off for Haven, the sound of the music pulling her like a mad piper taking over the world. There's a little activity inside. Some dancers up on the poles, a few at a booth, and she sets herself in her usual spot infront of the dj booth. As always, she just lets it go, her body moving to the beat whether she knows it or not. Even if she looks funny, she doesn't seem to care. Its her way of distracting her from her problems or anything else that may bother her. The sadness is always there when she's alone but when she feels the familiar waking mind her head lifts and is looking out the huge windows of the tavern. There he stood, on the other side of the road, poised and it sets her heart to racing every time. He stands out so much, the tall hard planes of his pale body standing out against the dark clothing, the vibes she can most definitely feel rolling off him makes her immediately stop what she's doing and dart out the door at a neck breaking run and slams none too gently into that towering frame while throwing her tone slender arms around his midrift and hugs like there's no tomorrow. The grunt of surprise always brings her a smile, slipping under his sight so easily, and she sighs with relief when his strong arms closes around her body and crushes her small frame into his. Painful, yes, but so very welcome to feel his love for her conveyed this way, as if he can't get enough of her and fears she'll run off. Yes...she can't help but love this single devotion of his for her. Basking in the warmth of his love and blazing under his desire.

They go to Haven and there he starts to dance. It puts color to her cheeks and her fingers clutch lightly at her collar as she seems mesmorized. This goes on until finally her body begins to move itself up against him, tucked perfectly, dancing while her fingers grips his hips as they move to the music. She is his heart. His soul and she feeds his hunger with a wave of everything summed up within a nova's glow. Never has she looked so happy, a smile that touches her eyes even, the small demon showing affection for him even in public of late, and she's never done this much the entire time she'd lived in that city, even if she wanted it. Her own little Heaven for the time they spent together and then all too soon he had to return to the Dream Lands. And, even then, she is still smiling as she is left on her own; though the time was short as she finally turns and heads out of Haven.

After some time passed, she manages to come across someone she'd been meaning to talk to, glancing around as she walks over to Arcann, Satori of the Coven. He must of knew what she wanted when she sat down, already waiting for her from a previous 'discussion' not too long ago they had. Now, she's all nervous looking and skittish again. Filled with uncertainty. "Okay, I'm gonna keep this short and sweet. Straight to the point." she says and his response is to chuckle. "I don't expect anything different." He tells her. She glances around again and then turns back and blurts out. "Have ya room for one more in yer midsts?" Again he's chuckling and nods, leaning foward to talk in hushed tones. Yes, he's been expecting this it seems for some time. And she's left in awe when he smiles and welcomes her to the coven. "I hope you don't mind starting as an apprentice." She just laughs a little and shrugs. "I've been an apprentice to one or another for a time. Even before Osoth kinda disappeared, I was his student for necromancy. So, naw, I ain't got any problems with it." She still looks shocked he agreed to it and gives a sigh of relief while chattering of small things before he leaves. A few minutes longer and then she too leaves, heading off with a sleepy look to seek out the nest and her incubus.
