Aila was a bundle of nerves in the back seat of the black SUV Cassius left them. It was brand new, all finished to the highest quality with the number plate: CAS5No1. Aila rolled her eyes when she saw it. But now she was sitting next to Ajax, Finn in the front passenger seat and Chase driving into ONYX nightclub. The address was on the business card Cassius gave her, and she handed it to Finn.
They parked up down the road from the booming nightclub. Even after driving past it briefly, the group knew it was fancy and bustling with customers wanting to get in. Did they need to queue with the rest if they knew the owner? They climbed out of the car and started making their way to the long queue. Chase and Finn stayed ahead, with Ajax still acting as her date / close bodyguard. She clung onto his arm, trying to fit in and hoped no one thought she was wearing a wig.
However, as they approached, most heads turned to look at her little party. Mainly women who made Aila relax more. They seemed to be swooning over the men.
"This is why I come here!" A lady's voice squealed from the front of the queue, "They HAVE to be models or something.. What a lucky bitch!"
Ajax smirked, "Ah, my looks are too much for them to bear!"
Aila smacked his shoulder lightly as they halted at the end of the line. She wished nobody would notice them, but with three hunky guys with her, they were bound to be seen. What a lucky bitch indeed.
They waited only a few minutes before two very well-dressed security guards approached them. Their high quality dark red suits seemed ultra flashy with golden name tags on. "Please come with us." They turned around, not waiting for them to follow; with a single nod from Aila, they walked past the queue through the entrance and was shown a separate door to the main one.
The guard opened the door and tilted his chin for them to follow down the barely lit stairs. Ajax placed his arm over her shoulder and followed behind the other two. They stopped when they turned the corner, and before them was a prestige bar and lounge area. The colouring of black and gold, the lighting set dark, with fancy modern chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. Aila peered around the side of the wall and noticed an archway that seemed to lead to strobe lights and some booming music.
Where they currently were was like an esteemed members-only lounge with a bar. They walked towards the bar, and Aila leaned her back against it, resting her elbows on the sleek surface while she searched the room for Gabriel.
"What's a pretty she-wolf like you doing in a vampire bar?"
Aila snapped her head to the free space by her side where Ajax was meant to be (but of course, he wasn't as the shapeshifter forgot his duties and was ordering a drink next to Finn). There stood a man with dark brown hair, blue eyes hooded as he leaned closer to Aila with his sharp, stunningly pale features. He grinned, showing off his fangs to prove a point. But what had Aila staring at him so much was the red ring around his eyes. Didn't vampires have red specks in their eyes?
"Or was you by any chance.." His eyes roamed the length of her body before resting his gaze on hers once more. "looking for a bit of action with a vamp?" His lustful gaze made Aila sigh, wondering what happened to her bodyguards.
"I'm here to meet a friend-"
"I'll be your friend.." He leaned closer to her, but her attention snapped to the side when she realised their group was surrounded by men and women. There had to at least be ten of them, each showing off their fangs.
Aila rolled her eyes. She had no experience with vampires other than Cassius, but she was pretty confident in her capabilities to take them out if she needed to. If she was able to keep up a fight with Cassius, who was 500+ years old, she was certain she could take these guys out. But, she was not here for a fight, but a 'business meeting' to help get rid of the hunters.
"No, thank you," She replied crisply, glaring back at the vampire too close to her.
"My, my, my.. What do we have here?"
Aila whipped her head to the side at an approaching vampire with golden curly locks of hair falling to his chin, bright green eyes circled with that red ring, with a sharp nose and strong jaw. The vampire looked like he should be tanned and on a surfboard, but his clothes screamed money in his flashy designer suit. He sauntered over to stand in front of Aila, making Ajax on her other side inch closer to her and hooking his hand over her waist protectively while glaring at the newcomer who seemed to be in charge.
He reached his hand out, almost like he was going to touch Aila's chin, but she swatted it away and glared at him. Mr Goldy-locks only smiled more, showing off his fangs and chuckled while a bristling Finn growled lowly.
"It's almost.." He began, staring at each person in her small group, "as though I have walked in on an awful joke.. Two werewolves, a shapeshifter and a human walk into a vampire bar.." He smirked and stood in front of Aila again, tilting his head to the side. "Whatever was your plan?"
"If I recall, there are humans in the club, not just us, and we are not on bad terms with the vampires.." Aila began only to narrow her eyes subtly at Mr Goldy-locks and the other vampires, who started to laugh at her comment. "Either way, we are here to see Gabriel. Do you know him?"
For some reason, the vampire started to laugh again along with the one by her side. "What would a slutty she-wolf like you want with the vampire king?" The dark-haired vampire leaning close to her snapped.
Ajax' hand tightened around her waist, but she turned to face the foul speaking man, dismissing the comment of Gabriel being the vampire king for later. "If I were you, Mr, I'd step away before I REALLY lose my patience.." She replied in an overly sweet voice while stroking his shirt with her finger.
He hissed back, his fangs baring and without needing anymore urging; Aila grabbed a bottle and smashed it into the bar before jabbing it into his neck. A gurgled scream escaped his lips as he floundered with his hands to the area and fell back. She heard some scuffling on the side, already knowing the others were fighting, before she smirked and let her mind go hazy with blood lust. Mr Goldy-locks reached for her, but she swiftly moved out of the way, standing behind him.
He spun around, looking at her in stunned silence. She used that moment to kick her leg out, causing him to slam into the bottles at the back of the bar. Almost immediately, she blocked an oncoming punch from another vampire in a suit, and she kneed him in the stomach. But he disappeared and reappeared behind her, putting her into a headlock. But with one lithe movement, she broke free, flipped over him, elongating her canines and ripped into the flesh of his neck.
"Ah!"
She pulled back and chuckled, "A vampire that doesn't like to be bitten?!"
Aila jumped off him and slammed his head into one of the coffee tables, knocking him out. Malia was close to the surface, and she could almost hear her wolf trying to calm her down. Calm down!? Why this was fun! Plus, they started it, it was only right she finished it! She wanted blood to be spilt, the rush of the fight making her lose her mind.
She stopped and looked at the madness in the snazzy bar and shook her head. Where the hell was Cassius? Why hadn't he helped them yet?
"Ooft!" She flew to the side and rolled out of the way from another vampire's reach. Unlike the others who were struggling with the same opponent, Aila kept taking hers down quickly. She could see the scowls on their faces from how she could keep up with their speed. The last one to try and attack her grabbed her by the throat, but she punched him in the face, making him release his hold; he reached out again, this time pulling on her hair.
But it wasn't her hair; it was her wig. The vampire stumbled back and looked at the wig before staring wide-eyed as Aila's white hair fell down in waves across her chest and back. She narrowed her eyes at him. And within a split second, she stood in front of him, grabbed his head and twisted it to the side with a loud crunch. He dropped to the ground just in time for Aila to look back up to see Cassius glaring at her.
