               LORELEI HAD NEVER been one to keep to herself, if there was something to solve or research, she was on it in an instance. Kendra loved that about her sister, and yet also loathed it because it almost meant she could get into trouble. And knowing Lorelei, that would quickly become a lot of trouble. “You can look into it,” Kendra began, because she knew there was no use in telling her sister she couldn’t do something. If anything, that would make her do it even more. “You can’t get involved.” she was quick to remind Lorelei. “If this is something big, then Aesir will handle it. I know you want to help, but we can’t fight this until we know what’s going on. And until we know what’s going on, you need to stay in class.”

۞

“You know you don’t have to protect me anymore” Lorelei reassured Kendra, hoping that would stop her from keeping her away from this. Lorelei wanted to figure out if this was her mother but she couldn’t tell Kendra that because then she would keep her away for sure. “Why does Aesir get to handle everything?” She knew why, that was a stupid question and she was just being difficult. Still, she wished she was a free agent sometimes, able to do exactly what she wanted without worry of reprimand “I am in class, in fact. I got a couple of tickets for the opera house. I earned a spot to preform, piano this time not cello”  Lorelei hoped that this would ease Kendra, and distract her from the the things she was trying to keep Lorelei from “So you can come, dress up and even come with Aesir, like a date or something”

@sercndipityx​ Alex to Sasha

“Babe, I’ve walked into women in your kitchen back home that I’ve never seen again,” she said, sitting up on the arm of the couch with her tea securely in her hands. Sure, yeah, she could see why this Cal guy just randomly showing up and living in their house could be a little weird for the Belikov brothers but she thought he seemed nice and she didn’t feel anything wrong coming from him, just some nerves. “Zoya made a friend while she was gone, he seems nice,” she said with a small shrug of her shoulders, “So both you and Ivan play nice, okay?”

[sercndipityx]

❍

His bright blue eyes looked at her bewiled by her comparison “I am sorry, but such comparison are currently not being accepted as those specific instances were not cause by me but my brother” His formal speech coming out around her only because he got himself in the defensive, but not really ... This was his Lumi “You could however make the argument that as leader I should not favor my brother acting as such for nepotism would surely be something to frown upon” He let our a small chuckled as he reached to pushed her hair behind her ear “I will be nice, I promise. Happy?”

@sercndipityx​ Cal to Sasha

Ivan would be skeptical, Cat would be overzealous and Sasha would be polite but analytical, that was the play by play he was given. But really, he assumed he’d be with Zoya when he met any of her coven-mates. It wasn’t quite working out that way. He had already bumped into the little one - Alex, she was nice but their introduction was fairly quick as she welcomed him and then rushed out the door, asking him to let Sasha know she was going to compound. Which would be easier if he knew who the guy was. It wasn’t too terribly long after that that he heard the door open while he stood back in the living area. It was a witch, well, it had to be. That’s about as much as he could tell based on his own sense alone. “Uh…,” he looked over his shoulder as the footsteps drew closer - the witch no doubt having sensed him in return, “Hi.”

[sercndipityx]

❍

Sasha had been waiting for the time to come when he would meet Zoya’s friend. He had, of course, been made aware that Zoya would not come alone and everyone that would be staying here had to first okay it for it to happen. So he had known it would have been just a matter of time. “Hello” Sasha spoke, softly and politely. His voice less stern that when outside of their safehouse as he was comfortable here “I hope you’ve been made comfortable while staying here” He removed the layers of clothing he had to protect himself from the cold weather “Excuse my overly formal, and polite speech. It’s an occupational hazard, but my girlfriend tells me it comes off strong”

@sercndipityx​ Evelyn to Sasha

When her maker was mad, Evelyn balanced it by being her usual seemingly un-phased self. And considering the bodies and the murder of one of their own, it was sage to say Aesir was far from happy. “Honestly, after all this time, you still won’t invite us into your little safe-house,” she sat down in one of the lounge chairs in her room at the compound. Yes, she was called back here like other inner circle vampires and Kendra. “I’m going to start feeling like you don’t trust me, Belikov,” she crossed her legs, “But more to the point as to why I asked you here. You’ve heard about the deaths, no?”

[sercndipityx]

❍

Sasha’s eyes apologizing before he could even utter the formal apology. His lips formed a kind smile for Evelyn “It’s policy for our coven, and I’m not about to break it. However, if It was my own personal complex, I would have extended an invitation by now” What a person is unable to do, time is always able to accomplish. Sasha was not known to have a hateful relationship, it was more like a bias towards wolves and witches. However, London sure humbled him and taught him a lot. Allowed him to have, dare he said, friendships with unexpected people “I have heard, and while I wanted to look into it a little bit further, I wasn’t going to without yours or Aesir’s greenlight”

               “WE WERE CALLED but that doesn’t mean we always have to answer.” Zoya grumbled, although she didn’t make eye contact with Cat because she knew that wasn’t true. The witch had agreed to follow Grigori’s mentorship and join the coven, which meant when called upon, it was a necessity to answer. “See! For old time’s sake.” Zoya grinned, pleased that she had managed to distract Cat from the drama of the city. “Besides, you must tell me of your time in Russia. You have a whole years worth of stories to tell me.” she reminded Cat with an eager smile, just anything to distract them from what was really happening.

✾

“So cute that you think you have a choice” Catalina teased her before lightly poking Zoya’s nose. It’s not like the coven would ignore if you really couldn't fulfill a mission but they all took an oath. But she understood the girl, of course she did. She had been that age wanting things to just be phone, she watched her beloved Ivan also look for his fun and too heavy all the time just wasn’t it. “I mean I was working. You know, tried to find some missions that were in warmer climates. I went to Malta, Brazil, and Italy but also stayed in Russia to help train” the Latina shared as she laid out the ingredients “My favorite was Italy, because it was the kind of mission that allowed me a fling if I wanted one and oh was she a fun one. She taught me il dolce far niente, which means the sweetness of doing nothing”

@sercndipityx​ Cal to Cat

It was strange he had always lived close enough to England and yet this was his first time in London. To be fair, once he had learned of the supernatural upon learning that he was supernatural, he thought that maybe trying to blend in in a city run by vampires wasn’t the safest idea. But now he was safe because of Zoya, right? Yeah, right. He sat outside the house, sitting on the stoop while he tuned his acoustic guitar. That was when it was like something in him told him to look up, a energy so warm he couldn’t even help it. The woman walking up the house was, without a doubt, beautiful. He was quickly pulled out of it, eyes noticing the moon tattoo nestled between her - uh - breasts. “You’re Cat,” he quickly said without thinking, knowing from looking at her that she absolutely wasn’t natively Russian, leaving really one option. He cracked a small smile as she was the one he was the least worried about from Zoya’s descriptions before turning towards, “Sorry, I’m Cal… I’m a friend of Zoya’s… she kind of filled me on you guys.”

[sercndipityx]

✾

As Catalina approached the entrance of the safehouse she slowed down looking at the unfamiliar handsome face. She was more than ready to start the conversation, when he went ahead and started it for her, earning a small smirk “Cat to friends, Catalina to strangers” She held a bit of a stern look for a second before cracking the known warm smile “But if you know me as Cat that means you are a friend of a friend, so a friend in my book” she leaned in and kissed both his cheeks, her known greeting “Nice to meet you Cal, I did hear we were going to have a guest” Catalina could not put her finger on what energy she felt from him. She was usually clear on it but he was different. “You’re not outside because you got locked out, right?”

It’s not like Lorelei didn’t know what her sister wanted her to focus on. From the start, Kendra has only wanted Lorelei to have as much of a normal life as she could, after the life her mother gave her. So the only thing Lorelei needed to worry about was school, and yet... and yet here she was was searching for clues, and looking for trouble and for the things she hasn’t lost. “The semester just started, It isn’t like I am over loaded with work so... it’s not harm me looking into what’s been happening” Lorelei was also worried that it was something her mother was involved in and she wanted to find out.

CAT

               The news of the sudden string of deaths across the city hadn’t fallen on deaf ears, but Zoya had just wished she could’ve had just one normal day with her friends before everything descended in chaos. “C’mon Cat,” the witch moaned as she fiddled with pots and pans in the kitchen. “Can’t we just shut all the doors and windows and pretend like my first day back isn’t a disaster? Can’t we go back to you doing all the cooking and me pretending like I’m following what’s going on?” Zoya pleaded.  

[sercndipityx]

✾

Catalina smiled at Zoya “You know things are never that simple girl, we were called and it’s not because they missed us and are inviting us for brunch” She moved straight to the bridge to see what it was stocked with “But I don’t see why we can’t do some cooking, you know, for old time’s sake” Cat began to take out items to throw something together for them. “Come on Zo, you wanted to cook I can put you to work. I know you missed my cooking”

          She knew exactly how long she had phased out for, the time it took for a kettle of water to be ready. She knew that because she had just put the kettle on the stove and next thing she knew, the whistle of it was pulling her out of a daze. Alex looked down at the counter, a couple of drops of blood painting the marble. She brought her hand to her nose pulling it back to see the red on her fingers. Shit. When she heard the door, she was quick to grab a paper towel and wipe her nose and then the counter. “Just in time,” she called back to Sasha, “I was just about to make some tea. Want some to warm you up?”

❍

Sasha’s eyes instantly lid up when he saw Alex was not too far “Hey, yeah.. I’ll take a hug too” He replies with a smile as he closed the proximity between them. He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her forehead, letting his lips be warmed up by the warmth of her skin “Sorry I have been out all day, Maybe next time you can come to me” He took a good look at her, as he always did when he spent too long away from her. He brought up his hand to smooth out her hair, before he leaned in to kiss her “I missed you”

          She may not be like some of the bleeding hearts of this city but Evelyn could admit there as a certain amount of relief now that things had mostly gone back to normal. Now there was the little matter of the fact that she, herself, was something like a hybrid. “I should be asking you that,” she quipped when she heard the witch approach, “I’m sure trying to rebuild that coven has been quite time consuming.”

❍

Sasha shook his head humbly “I am happy to help. The load is never heavy when doing things like this” It really was his passionate and probably the reason he was trusted to be a leader. He just wanted to see covens do well, and positively affect the communities around    for them to actually hold balance. “I would have hated to leave London and leave the London coven in that state. It was a ticking timebomb, and I mean, we got to see where their desperation lead so.. I am happy to do the work. Like I am happy to help you understand your powers”

          “Leading the witches of London into a new era,” he chimed in, knowing she probably didn’t know he was there. He knew that wasn’t exactly what she was intending to sign up for. All she wanted was to prevent the witches from Julien’s witch hunt. Aesir had his own brand of giving people what they want. “Evelyn sent me to check on the progress,” he announced, his gaze softening a little as he looked over the clearly stressed witch, “She also said the questioning needs to start, even the young ones.” He knew that was a hard pill to swallow but he also knew something most people didn’t, there was no reason to be worried about Evelyn handling children.

❦

Emira bounced a bit on the stop, startle by Christian who she wasn’t expecting to see “Yeah, who let that happen” She joked letting out a small chuckle before looking up at him. She offered him a small warm smile that did reach her dark honey eyes “You know being a leader is not really what I was going for here”  At the mention of Evelyn wanting to interrogates the kids, Emira became visibly nervous “What if they say something wrong? You know kids, they say the wrong thing or say things that they don’t really mean”

Sasha was happy to help Evelyn understand this new side of herself. While maybe one could argue that it was a little too late seeing that she was a vampire, but it was still something active in her and whatever was inside of her .. He was going to help her control and understand. “Hey Evelyn, I am hoping that I have caught you in a good time” @ncturnallyyours​

Cat liked to think that after all this time in London, and pretty much fighting alongside vampire she had a better handle of her kneejerk reaction to want to stake every single one she came across. She was good about it, ‘till one actually hit on her. That’s when it made her nervous. She was not interested in pursuing anything with no vampire unless your name was Eve. “That’s all cute, but I think I’m going to pass on that offer” @ncturnallyyours​

[sercndipityx]

❦

As of recent, Emira felt like she needed to have all the answer. The new coven had questions, the supernatural community had questions for the coven. So many questions and not enough answers as she was still learning to navigate the supernatural bureaucracy. “Shit, I have no idea what I am doing” Once she was able to step away from the meeting, she was more than happy to because her head was spinning. @ncturnallyyours​

She had questions, a lot of questions. Sure, she wasn’t under the impression that Ivan had to give her any kind of explination but she, for her own peace, wanted to know why Ivan was helping the London coven. So in the spirit of being better than before, and not just jumping to conclusions like she normally does she decided to maybe just ask him. So she invited him over, letting him know he can drop by her place anytime seeing that she spends her days now doing either work for her major or working on spells.  When she heard the door she rushed over hoping it was him “You made it” She said it more to herself, happy that he was able to stop by “Thanks for coming, don’t mind the mess you know I am always working on something” @ncturnallyyours​
