The Next Day
Party At Manor

After helping Zexion and Princeton set up for the party I tucked away into the bedroom I claimed as mine. Laying across the bed I stared up at the ceiling. It was a sensory overload for me as humans and vampires entered the penthouse. The various aromas that filled my nose wasn't the one I was searching for. Vanilla and lavender. Even the sounds of the humans hearts beating didn't have the same rhythm as hers.

Reaching over to my nightstand I retrieved the glass of blood that's been sitting there for the past few minutes. As I sat up I placed the glass to my lips and drunk down the room temperature blood. I was growing irritable as I continued to wait for Kaliyah and her friends to come. I'm a patient person but my urge to get this woman out of my mind caused me to lose the patience I had. Standing to my feet I left out of my bedroom. Upon opening the door the dank smell of weed greeted me along with the blaring sound of music.

"We're here, so come make your presence known. Behave yourself" Kaliyah said while communicating with me telepathically

Scoffing under my breath I continued to make my way to the kitchen. When stepping inside of the kitchen that delightful aroma of the mystery girl's scent overcame me. Her heartbeat filled my ears like a beautiful sympathy. Placing the bloody cup into the sink, I cut through the kitchen and went inside the living room. My eyes searched for her briefly before she came into view. She was wearing a pastel tie-dye outfit. The long duster hung over her body so effortlessly, her stomach was flat and toned. She wore a matching headwrap over her curled black tresses. Licking over my lips I was almost in awe at her beauty. She didn't need a pound of makeup to be beautiful.

Sucking in air, I attempted to compose myself

Sucking in air, I attempted to compose myself. My fangs were trying to extract as the sound of her heartbeat grew louder as she neared me. If I knew she would have this type of effect on me I would have fed on someone before coming out into the party. Hoping my eyes weren't flashing between my normal dark brown to gold, I watched as Kaliyah, mystery girl, and another woman who I assumed to be their friend stood in front of me. Kaliyah offered me a smile before hugging me.

"Hey King, long time no see" Kaliyah chuckled as I embraced her

"Yeah, it's been a minute. Who you bring with you ?" I questioned

"This is Nyx and Xuriella. Girls this is King, he's like my brother" Kaliyah said introducing us

"Wassup Xuriella, Nyx" I said locking my eyes with hers

Nyx smiled shyly as she folded her arms over her chest. Her heart rate began to increase as our eyes never broke from each other's gaze. Was I making her nervous ? Tilting my head to the side so that I was looking solely at Kaliyah, I signaled her to leave me with Nyx. Kaliyah rolled her eyes before leaning over to Xuriella. As she whispered into her friend's ear Xuriella looked back at me smiling.
