Chicago - The Presidium ..:Public Building:.. ..somewhere in the city.. .City of Chicago, IL. says to ALL: 'Anuket,, you'll like it, it's not terribly bad,' Marius, her enigmatic companion, said with a chuckle before pressing a kiss to her cheek. With a gentle push, he sent her through the doorway.
Amir's amusement was met with a faint smile from Marius as they watched her enter the lift to head downstairs and out of the building.
Madalyne had long harbored an aversion to daylight hours. It wasn't the danger that bothered her, but rather the inexplicable sense of vulnerability she felt beneath the sun's piercing gaze. While her weakness was not as pronounced as that of others she had known, the constant hustle and bustle of city life created a cacophony of sound that reverberated through her mind, maddening her senses.
Marius had suggested she venture outside their secluded sanctuary, taking the metro line to one of the parks nestled in the suburbs. It was a place that promised respite from the teeming masses, a sanctuary where she could acclimate to her new surroundings. After all, they had left behind the tranquility of the rural Argentinian countryside for the vibrant chaos of this urban metropolis.

She had been out in a run, getting some excersize in when the weather was nice in the quiet park, wearing a pair of jogging type shorts and a sporty top, much like a sports bra, indeed not ashamed of it. She was on a bench now taking some water in as she would be taking he rest as she watched what people were here, seeing some people but it was quiet as usual, which made it ideal for her tu run in, didn't have to worry about a crazy stalker type following her, not that she has one, but it's always on mind

says to : Pour Me A Drink |::R: With some trepidition, she made her way to the station, her senses hit by the sights and sounds that assailed her. The metro car was packed, but not unbearable, and as it pulled away from the platform, she closed her eyes, willing herself to find solace in the darkness.
As the train emerged from the underground, she caught a glimpse of the park through the window. Verdant lawns stretched out before her, dotted with towering trees that provided ample shade. A sense of calm washed over her as she disembarked and stepped into the serene embrace of nature.
She wandered aimlessly through the park, her sneaker clad feet sinking into the soft grass. The chatter of children and the songs of birds filled the air, creating a soothing symphony that eased her mind. The sun peeked out from behind the clouds, casting a warm glow upon her skin, but this time, it felt different. It felt like a gentle caress, not a cruel reminder of her vulnerability.
he was lost in her thoughts, when a hint of a familiar scent brushed past her. It was an aroma that had been imprinted in her memory since that fateful night. She knew she would recognize the woman behind the scent anywhere, no matter how much time had passed.
Closing her eyes, she tipped her head back and breathed deeply. The scent grew stronger, and she followed it until she saw her. Sitting alone on a bench, with a water bottle in hand, her gaze fixed on the people as they casually passed by.
She moved between the trees and bushes, crossing the path to slowly approach from the left.

Infact she'd be a bit curious, even though last time they met it was perhaps not quite dark it was definately not under this kind of sun. she'd not think she'd bump into you here, not that she'd mind, infact she had hoped to see you again, she enjoyed the company in the short time they had met. She would lean her head back a moment as she drank some more water to cool off, allowing some of it to empty over her to help cool her form down a bit. Even as you got near, she didn't recognize it yet, you were indeed a bit more down wind, and had the advantage of a better sense. She would shift smiling some and perhaps looked in your direction, did she see you, maybe, probably not yet, but she was not really looking to look for anyone specific so perhaps it's why for the moment she missed seeing you

SHe would obviously be hinting a bit that vampire myth about sun Though I am happy you are and good to see you She said already shifting on the seat to help give you room and chuckled Well I was just taking a run, so SHe shrugged, not even sure what she should say to that, though se could now think of ther reasons why they may be a bit flushed. She wasn't put off by the comment though as she nodded Please Madalyn, how are you today? She asked, her voice kept to where they could hear one another. She shifted to be able to face Madalyne more now

"We have been busy and Marius has ushered me out to ....'get some fresh air'," she added with a light chuckle as she seated herself beside her.
"I don't really like being out in the day, so many people around. I've grown accustomed to ...hmm..shall we say, less people."
She looked out across the park. "This is not bad, not even as much as Rome but ..." giving a slight shrug. It was difficult to explain.

SHe shrugged Not sure how this could resemble anything of Rome She mentioned, she never been there obviously and definately not when you were there probably. It was an honest comment on it. SHe was enjoying the time, and conversation as per usual, you were always able to keep her intrigued

Chicago - The Presidium ..:Gardens and Parks:.. ..Throughout the City.. .City of Chicago. says to : Pour Me A Drink |::R: She laughed slightly. "Rome was always busy. The smells were....they were...very intense. Blood, dirt, sweat....so many odors that filled the city. Some pleasnt," she laughed again, "some not so pleasant." At the thought of other reasons, she gave a slow nod. "Yes, I suppose many people wonder and are surprised. I've learned over the years ther are as many ..ahh..races...of vampires as there are humans.
"Some even here in this city, I am told." she cast another look across the park. "We are fortunate in a way others are not." Her face looked almost sad for a moment before she visibly brightened. "For that I am grateful," with another smile.

Her eyes on you as you spoke of everything, on her comment about your kind and Rome nodding I Can only imagine She sadi. Her form shifting, uncrossing her legs, to recross them now as she almost move slightly closer subconciously towards you as you talked. She watched you then the park and saw the sad look there for the moment nodding As am I. Otherwise who knows when I may have seen you She said with a chuckle, as she again admitted to having wanted to see you ((Sorry took a sec))

Chicago - The Presidium ..:Gardens and Parks:.. ..Throughout the City.. .City of Chicago. says to : Pour Me A Drink |::R: She moved as well, once your body eased to a more relaxing position. She noticed, as she had when they'd met at the museum, the subtle...casual..movement which brought you closer to her.
Her knee tucked up slightly, brushing against your thigh as she turned to face you. With an arm across the back bench, she only had to lift her fingers to touch a curl of hair, dampened as it was slightly with your sweat upon your neck.
you could see her nostrils slightly flare as she inhaled and closed her eyes, her lips parting slightly as if enjoying the scent. A light and slow exhalation followed though she did not open her eyes.

She was curious and watched with that curiosity in her eyes at you. Her lips kept in that pleasant smile as she didn't know whether to move closer, or stay where she was, or what to do, but she felt comfortable right where she is at this moment

Chicago - The Presidium ..:Gardens and Parks:.. ..Throughout the City.. .City of Chicago. says to : Pour Me A Drink |::R: It was a lazy smile that crossed her lips as she opened her eyes at your question. "I was enjoying the moment, if you forgive my ...words. You have a scent that is particularly agreeable. Human...no artifice. Most people layer on scents which can be pleasing but sometimes is too much," she kipped a shrug rubbing her fingertip across her nose. "Sometimes a little can even be too much."
She added, just as honest as she'd always been. "I like you, I like your company. I would..." she met your gaze, "I would like more of your company, if you'd like." Though she suspected you would due to your casual movements towards her. The question was...were they consciously done or tucked away in the subconscious?

She heard you speak of that, her gaze meeting yours as you admitted what you admitted. SHe would nod I Would like that, very much Madalyne, I find myself enjoying my time with you, I feel drawn a bit to you She admitted, her gaze not wavering as it stayed locked upon your own

Chicago - The Presidium ..:Gardens and Parks:.. ..Throughout the City.. .City of Chicago. says to : Pour Me A Drink |::R: As she had not been deliberately coaxing the woman towards being drawn to her, easy enough for a vampire to coax the unwilling...or even the willing, she found it much more pleasurable to have an honest response. To hear she enjoyed the time as well, brought a growing smile as their eyes stayed focused upon each other.
The silence stretched longer and her eyes shifted to the side of your neck where her fingertips were lightly caressing. The touch was electric. "Good, very good." her eyes took on an almost sleepy look as she focused her senses on you. The scent of your skin, the sweat of your body, the water which glistened on your skin, the shampoo you used, detergent for clothing...the sound of your blood singing through your veins. It was a orchestra of sounds and scents that brought her again to draw in a breath. "beautiful," she whispered softly as she trailed her fingers from your neck to your cheek, leaving a light caress to breath across your skin.

says to || Pharaohs Pilgrim ||: She wouldn't know if you were but she felt drawn, and it felt as if it were just cause of their....reactions to one another, or attraction maybe a better word. You were easy to talk to, to b e around and she found herself relaxed in your presence, her mind was already made up that she enjoyed the time with you now. Your smile only kept hers upon her lips as she kept focused on your eyes, the silence was there but it was also easy to understand, in a way it was as if no words were needed. She saw your eyes slide to the side of her neck, made her wonder if you were thinking of biting her, she woudln't object, but she didn't say anything. Your eyes had an almost sleepy look as you focused on her, her own eyes again locked there, almost magnetized to them, not that she thought you were doing it, no she didn't know what to say as she felt that touch on her neck to her cheek, electrifying as it was there as her breath perhaps caughtaas she reached out almost tentatively at first to touch your own cheek her head almost leaning into your touch as she smiled at the word beautiful turning it around abit Yes you are Meaning you were beautiful, are beautiful

says to : Pour Me A Drink |::R: That lazy look remained, as if lost in the last moments of seduction brought to satisfaction. At your though, a quiet almost whimper of sound could be heard. She'd lost track of how many years it'd been since she'd felt more than the hugs or embraces of anyone other than Marius. Though they had a long relationship as he was her sire, their physical moments had been nothing more than a tight embrace after being separated for long periods of time.
"This I like," she said softly as she moved her fingers from your cheek to again caress your neck as her free hand moved to capture your hand. Lifting it to her lips, she brushed her lips over your knuckles, inhaling closer your scent. She lowered your hand, but didn't release it as she kept it resting enfolded with her own on her thigh.

says to || Pharaohs Pilgrim ||: She heard that quiet almost whimper sound as you lost track of time, she just was letting time pass her by at the moment lost in this moment here with you. She obviously didn't know your history well not as much of it as you shared, and really had just met you but felt so comfortable in this moment. She felt your fingers moved again from her cheek to her neck, her head tilting exposing that neck slightly more to you enjoying this electric touch as a soft pleasurable sigh escaped her lips as you took her hand and lifted it to your lips as she felt you brush your lips over her knuckle, almost causing her blushing feeling you rest your hand on hers on your though she would squeeze softly there as she shifted a bit closer to you as she murmured As do I....a lot She said her eye watching you almost searching yours and your form, finding it hard to not want to get closer her free hand again moving over your cheek there her other hand in yours as she took a deep inhale of the moment enjoying your own subtle scent that was now there on the wind

says to : Pour Me A Drink |::R: Though she was slight of form, you could feel the strength within her by the careful movements she made when she moved as you did, tucking her knee up higher to allow you to lean against her, as if she were a backrest for you. Her arm encircled around your waist having briefly released your hand only to recapture it moments later.
All it took was a slightly lean down for her to rest her lips against your neck. A cool touch to warm skin as she breathed in deeply, her arms tightening slightly but enough for it to be noticeable.
She trembled slightly as she embraced you from the back. "You can rest against me," she encouraged in a quiet whisper of sound. Quiet but almost purring in tone .

Hearing that purring tone you spoke in made her own body react I could get used to this She murmured,. her own tone a soft sound of pleasure in it as she only shiftted to help get a bit more comfortable

says to : Pour Me A Drink |::R: Turning her head just enough to rest her cheek agianst your head, she shuddered in a soft breath, the flat edge of her teeth pressed lightly downupon her lip. Temptation was always there, but age tempered it to a dull ache. Still, needing closeness as much as blood, she relaxed slightly as she cradled you more gently but decidedly firmly. She had no intention of releasing you any time soon.
She let the moments tick by before whispering softly near your ear. "I needed this," she admitted softly, the gentle yet affectionate holding of body to body. More was desirable, but not in a pubic park. Rome this was not. At that thought a smile touched her lips. Even then she wouldn't have done this. Some things just were not done by ladies. She was perfectly content in sitting here until the moon rose high. It wasn't a full moon, but it would be bright enough to illuminate the area without need of extra lighting.

says to || Pharaohs Pilgrim ||: She felt your head turn to rest your cheek against her head as she wondered, did you wish to bite her, did you wish to sttay here. SHe was happy to stay this close, she didn't wish to move, not by any means, so happy to stay in this position but she wouldn't be against moving, going somewhere more private, with you or somewhere else, anywhere really. YOu cradled her gently but firmly as she was not intending to move anytime soon, only shifting or moving to help stay close. The moments tick by as she h eard you she murmurs IS there anything else? You need she meant as she spoke I am...enjoying this I wish time could stop She chuckled ever so softly not wanting to move. She would allow her own smile to just continue to grow as her eyes seem to shut as she leaned her head back against you more she murmured Not that I want to move, but...if you want to go somewhere more...private I'd not complain about that either Being a bit bold, she didn't know what was on your mind, what the plans were, was this just a snack for you or were you persuing something with her, she was indeed finding herself getting more and more enthralled with you, no not cause of anything you did, just cause of who you were, how you made her feel around you, as if she was the only one there

says to : Pour Me A Drink |::R: You could feel the light easing of her body, as if she relaxed more against you. "Hmm.." she breathed tighening the embrace just a moment longer before moving to come before you. "You will come with me?" she asked, though she well knew she could force the issue and compel you.
"I came by underground," she glanced around. "I would bring you home, Amir could attend you later, if you wish?" Attend meaning, refreshments and amusements if desired. "You could meet Marius,"
"I want you to meet him, come to our home." They never invited anyone to their home, which she would discover if she did choose to ...visit.

She felt the embrace tighten slightly before you moved to come before her, her gaze watching you almost again searching as you ask, could you compel her, were you? Mean she would guess not. She wanted this right now but nodding Yes, I would She said listening to you speak on bringing her home as she would keep a smile on her lips as she spoke I think I would enjoy that, I like Amir too Well not in the same way she was liking you, different, she found Amir amusing in other ways but enjoyed meeting him too at the museuem. She would nod I would enjoy that, Madalyne, I would love to come visit She wouldn't ask who Marius is yet, she figured you'd tell her, she wasn't sure if you had anyone at home, or anything, or what your status was but by the fact you were being so open and holding her in such a manner, that it was at the least, open and she was glad you came to the park today
coming soon, Madalyne introduces Rachel to Marius....or Marius to Rachel. (and gets surprise by the jinn)
