The Eyes Of 'Rah

The Vampire Ball II

Garbed in a red tunic adorned with gold buttons, Xavier looked elegant, with powerful aura radiating around him as he marched forward. His gender tried to speak with him as he walked by while the opposite gender wanted to catch his attention but his focus was the gathering where Seraphine was.

"Gentlemen, meet Miss Seraphine Patrick, an important person to the Weinroff pack"  Alpha Weinroff introduced.

Seraphine's cheek turned crimson, shy at being the centre of attention as all eyes in the group peered at her, they all smiled and nodded to welcome her and also waited for Kate to say more about her.

"By an important person, do you mean a potential mate for your nephew, Francis? The boy is hopeless when it comes to finding his mate" One of the men grinned as the lady whose arm was intertwined around him slightly scolded him, "forgive my husband, Miss Patrick" swatting his arm, "he tends to vomit all his thoughts without thinking, especially when drunk"

She shook her head faster than necessary, "oh no, no offence taken ma'am" her mind had been more on searching for a particular voice than whatever they might be saying.

As she was being introduced to the four men in the group, she instantly felt the familiar gaze on her. As uncanny as it seemed, out of all the multiple gazes on her, Seraphine could tell which belonged to Xavier. She felt his presence the moment he entered the hall, the gaze got more intense and she understood why when one of the men looked over her head.

"Looks like young Orsini is heading our way" the big and burly vampire who with a somewhat funny voice spoke. It took all the strength she had to stifle her laughter and school her facial expression when she first heard the man's voice.

She had first glimpsed the man's subtle hesitation in introducing himself, but her determination to hear everyone's voice had made her anticipated, only to hear the most sonorous and feminine voice come out of the huge man's mouth.

He must have lowered his guard when he couldn't read any discriminating expression from her.

Seraphine whirled around, blessings her eyes with the fine feature of Xavier Orsini in a red tunic. The golden button perfectly went well with his hair.  Seraphine had the same dreamy expression other females had on, seeing Xavier's appearance.

He smirked discreetly when he saw her, he wished he could see her bare eyes with the expression she had on.

"A good evening to everyone" Xavier spoke as he stood beside Seraphine, moving closer than necessary. Heat travelled down her arm as their body touched.

She cleared her throat to get rid of the naughty thoughts forming in her mind, swallowing the rest of her drink, she shook her head to tell him they had not made any progress in identifying the  voice when she saw Xavier's questioning look.

"Evening boy, you're going to wreck havoc on the minds of all the females tonight, the mothers are going to go extra mile to tie you to their daughters, if you're not careful" Alpha Weinroff smiled, glancing around to confirm her claim. She giggled when she found several heads had turned towards them.

"Where is your father?" Lord Edmund, the man with the funny voice asked.

"With some people by the courtyard. You'll see him soon"

As Alpha Weinroff took Seraphine's hand to lead her to another group, she stiffen when she heard the voice.

"Who is it?" Xavier who was close behind her before moved even closer, ignoring the suspicious glances others threw their way.

Seraphine wanted to lean against the strong form behind her for some reason, fighting the urge, she looked sideways where she heard the voice. Following her line of vision, both the pure blood and the alpha looked directly at the same man who fitted the description Seraphine and the man Xavier he tortured the night Francis was attacked had provided.
