Clark sweats as the young-half-breed look at him like that and even told him about what does patting one's head really means. He felt bad about this too, as he didn't mean to offended Evangeline back then. "Gee, I should just give her a kiss on the cheek then back then. But I guess that might enrage her right? Because, as you may know, she already had a lover back then,"Clark laugh a bit remembering the scene back then as he asked Syani with the assumption that she may already heard from Evangeline about her lover.
"Well, I'm no longer a Lord now... You may call me Clark, or Edwin if you feel uncomfortable to call me by my name," Clark nods a bit as he still maintained his gentleman ways. Clark learnt that status are no longer needed when he lived for a long time. Royalty doesn't always are 'higher' than commoners. His views were shape by Evangeline and due to being friends with a couple of human recently.
He then finally learn Syani's name and acknowledge her with a kiss on her hand again despite how he did noticed she is not used to it. He just felt that it is necessary, because Syani are now being together with Evangeline, and he felt somewhat relieve it is her that being her companion. "Pleasure to meet you too my lady," Clark then release her hands before asking her the favor.
"I actually just wanted you to be on her side more, she may look fine now, but I believe she are still broken at heart," Clark express his concerned regarding Evangeline. He cares for her dearly. "You may inform her about me if you want, it is your choice," Clark adds as he don't want Syani to feel burden by keeping this as a secrets. Beside he knew that Evangeline doesn't like people to keep secrets from her.
He then stands up casually as bow his head graciously at Syani as he is ready to take his leave. "Despite how I wanted to chat with you more, but I have some work to do. Also, she should be awaken by now and I still are not ready to meet her," Clark give a slightly sad smile to Syani. "I hope that we'll meet again," Clark suddenly vanish out of the thin air using his vampiric power to silently dash away from the scene. He is glad that he meet Syani as to know regarding about Evangeline. This news are important to the 7DW, as Evangeline aren't a person to be trifled with. Informing Victor about this will help makes him more aware to not make a mission that might be related to Evangeline. That's the plan.

"No no, I gotta call you Mister whatever the case, or sir." Syani pressed, somewhat feeling uncomfortable to call someone she used to read in a book so casually. He must be a century or so older than her after all. Then again, Syani feels more comfortable calling Evangeline by her name without a title of the sort. Perhaps its because Eva's friendlier?
At Clark's greeting by kissing the back of her hand, a wave of shiver traveled down her spine as she squared her shoulders. "This..!" She tried to speak, "Is what you should've done to Evangeline, Mister Clark, not the head-patting." Syani immediately pulled her hand when he released it and grabbed hold of the glass of fruit smoothie to drink it and forget that ever happened.
When Clark's tone changed, Syani stopped sipping her drink and turned her head slowly to face him. Her eyes are downcasted by what he said and only nodded slightly at how he gives her freedom to tell Evangeline or not. She planned not to, in order not to upset her, but then again it's not like Syani planned to meet Clark here, it was just by chance. "...Alright."
The vampire stood up from his seat after that and bid his goodbye, to which Syani blankly nodded at. It was an odd encounter, too odd. And right after meeting the other lord too. She too stood up from her seat, with the smoothie in her hands and she slowly maneuvered her way around all the fallen bodies on the floor to reach the exit, still sipping her drink. Couldn't hurt to just steal one glass, she already paid for the drink inside it anyway.
Then, she made her way back to the inn, wondering if she should snatch a crook or someone for Evangeline to drink on. Her smoothie is already half-finished when she reaches the inn and climbed upstairs to reach the room she puts Evangeline in, hoping the vampire didn't worry too much if she really did woke up. Entering the door with one hand since she's still holding her glass up, she walked in to fine Evangeline completely awake, as if she's been awake for a while.
"Wow. He was right..." She whispered to herself at Clark's assumption that she's already awake. What he did not managed to assume is a very worried Evangeline, which is the first thing Syani noticed when Evangeline turned to face her. "Oh my gosh, have you been awake for a while??!" Syani almost screamed, guilt is beginning to weighten her shoulders. "I'm so sorry!!" She immediately rushed to the vampire, and in a weak attempt to apologize, tries to hand the smoothie to her.
"Would you like a drink???" And then she remembered the other is a vampire. "Ah, sorry! Sorry!! You need blood, right?? Are you well?? Can you walk? Lemme help you find someone you can feed on!" Guilty, question after question was shot out of her mouth.

Evangeline had already woke up, for like 30 minute after Syani left her. At first she was worried, but the note left by Syani enables to calm her down after as she too went out a while, to feed. Quickly, she lurks outside the inn and walks around the back alley. She was surprised to see lot of humans there, thou, very untamed humans. She grin widely as she walks right through them which makes the thugs in the back alley wonders why would a little girl like her would even dare to walk here.
Evangeline the suddenly sang something, as what is heard by the thugs there. Thinking that the young girl is lost, the thugs quickly tries to take advantages on Evangeline, but instead they were lured right into a trap. "Sleep..." Evangeline speak once before everyone around her suddenly felt asleep. Her singing just now was not actually a sing, it is an incantation of magic that cause these people to sleep. When all of them are confirmed to sleep, Evangeline then smiles widely. "Time to feast," ...
Evangeline then quickly returns to the inn afterwards as she think Syani might probably waiting for her, but instead Syani still did not return. It confused her. She thought that she is the one that is late, it almost took an hour for her to feast all bunch of thugs back then. Starting to feel anxious, she decided to patiently waits for Syani.
Each minutes feels like an hour for her. She is very worried. Syani is her first friend she could ever had for a long time, and with this place fills with thugs only makes her worries more. After almost 30 minutes of waiting, she had enough. Just as she wanted to go search for her, Syani suddenly returned.
As Evangeline turn her worried face to Syani to say something, Syani suddenly speak as in a surprised that is awake. Evangeline then observe and listen to Syani's apology and even look silly as she tries to make up for it. She did not even rest as she starts to questions her loads of things. Without saying anything, Evangeline suddenly hugs Syani. She felt very worried, terribly worried. Even if it just for almost an hour, but she can't help but to feel worried. After a while as she hugged Syani, Evangeline finally say something.
"You're back, t-that's all that matters," Evangeline tries talk normally but unable to do so as she stumbles a bit. "Just... I can't help but to feel worried," Evangeline said it as she release Syani from her hugs as she stares at Syani, making sure that she is not hurt or what so ever. "Did you met into trouble on your way to grab yourself a drink? It somewhat feels too long, or I'm just not used to the current Era where buying drinks would take long time?" she stares at Syani's smoothies.
As she calms down more as she is glad that Syani is by her side, she did not realized that she is showing her soft spot too much. When she did realized it, she blushed and finally starts to reveal her fang and point her fingers at Syani before angrily declare something. "N-Next time, write the notes more detailed! So I won't have to wait too long in this small room," she flustered as she continues to cover her soft spot. "There's no need to bring anyone here, I already drink a group of thugs somewhere nearby. You are just late! hmph," Evangeline pouts as she turn herself away from Syani.
Evangeline never thought that for her to show her soft-spot so obvious like that and this embarrass her so much. She never used to showing her soft spot to anyone, even to her lover before. Despite still felt angry about this, she decides to not get angry at Syani more as she is afraid that it might scares her. Syani is important person for her after all.

In the midst of her barrage of questions, Syani's words were caught in her throat when Evangeline suddenly lunged forward and embraced her. "Eh??" A breath hitched out of her lips in surprise of the sudden gesture. She squared her shoulders, her fingers twitched in spasms because of her phobia of touch. Though after a moment, she eases down.
Just by the hug alone and the pressure she felt around her body, Syani can practically feel how worried Evangeline is somewhat. It honestly shocked her that the actual Lord of the East is right here with her, hugging her in concern. "E-Eva.....?" She whispered, her voice barely audible. When Evangeline voiced out her worry, Syani felt so touched, she couldn't breathe. "O-oh..."
Now it's Evangeline's turn to question her, but Syani could just stare at the vampire in a dazed state, still quite fascinated by the emotional Evangeline she just witnessed. Even as the vampire tries to cover her anxiousness, Syani still stared down at her in silent wonder. Only after Evangeline's finished and turned away with a pout did Syani sunk to the floor on her knees, placed her glass of smoothie next to her and opened her arms around Evangeline's smaller figure, returning back the hug with a gentle embrace.
"Thank you..." She whispered to her ear, resting her chin slightly on Evangeline's shoulder. It feels...nice, to have someone to berate her like this upon her return. She wondered if all family members are like this, and it makes her smile just to have someone that would worry incessantly of her by just being late. "I'm sorry," she said with resolve now as she releases the vampire and sat back on her ankles with a smile. "I won't leave you alone again, I promise."
She figured it's best to be truthful to Evangeline, especially since the latter displayed a rare side of herself just now. "I saw... I've met Lord Clark. ...Well, Clark now, since he said he's no longer a lord for some reason..." She started slowly, wary of Evangeline's reaction to this information. "We had a brief talk. He said he can't face you, so you don't need to worry about that. ...But he did requested a favor from me."
Syani tilted her head a bit, trying to remember the man's exact words, and a smile grows on her lips as she recalled. "Actually, his request correlates with my promise just now. To be by your side."

Evangeline felt bad due to Syani being quite when she complains at her. Feeling guilty, she wanted to apologize but as she wanted to turn herself back to her, Syani suddenly hugged her from behind. It completely caught her surprised as she widen her eye with her tongue tied.
Evangeline never felt this shy since the day she spent her time with her lover. Her face flustered badly as she unable to give any respond nor reaction to Syani. She finally get back to her senses when Syani whispers thank you to her ears. She felt something warm when she thanked her, and due to this feeling, it only makes her hard to reply her back. She then felt bad when Syani then apologies to her and even promised her that she won't leave her alone. Feeling a bit worried that she might unintentionally makes Syani feel bad, she wanted to convince her regarding that promise. "I-Idiot, don't promise me that!" at first she tries to reply with sharper tone, but her voice tone getting lower as she can't get angry at Syani in this state. "A-At least, promise me that you won't go somewhere for long...W-without a detailed note," her voice soften. She did not want to take Syani's freedom, despite how she would love for her to stay by her side.
After a moment of silent time, Syani then finally tells her what happened. It surprised her. Quickly turns around to Syani as she mentioned about Clark, her eyes squint as her throat runs dry. She is shocked, to find out that Clark is still around, and to be more precise, he was here. She wanted to ask if he tries to harm her, but she was just too shocked by this news to even says it. She had a mixture of feelings about this. She however feel a bit relaxed, seeing that Syani is doing fine as well as she mentioned that they both only have a brief of talk.
"A favor?" Evangeline responded after being silent for a moment. "T-That Clark! To think that he dares to ask you a favor regarding me!" Eva grits her teeth as she tightens her grips. She is angry as how she is confused when Syani told her about Clark's favor. Unable to look at Syani with her angry face, her voice trembles as it is hard for her to even explain things to Syani. "That coward, he should just taken my life back then. Now he can't even face me? This is absurd!" Evangeline express with anger. Most of her anger are resulting due to her being prideful. She hates to be given mercy by her opponent. She hated it when Clark did not end her life when he can. After hearing that kind of favor he ask to Syani. Evangeline finally understand his true intention. She is now, angry, because of her ignorance regarding of Clark. "T-that idiot, t-to think that he still l-live," her voice breaks down as she tries to hold her tears.
Clark is the only vampire that she actually felt comfortable talk with back then, despite its only short amount of time they ever met. She felt relief, that she did not actually kills him during her rampage outbreaks before. Wiping her eyes before she look at Syani with more determined yet slightly angry face, she tries to assure Syani that she is alright as she felt embarrass due to her showing Syani too much of her soft spot. "You owe me one hand-made meals or drink, got it?" she said it after she looks away, still flustered. That is her ways in order to stop a conversation that she don't want continue. At least not until she is ready to deal with it. She then sits on the bed, still not looking at Syani as she tries to make sure if she get what she meant. "We'll discussed about this later, I'll need some time to think about this," she closes her eyes as she tries to think about this situations.
Clark is here, but he is no longer the Lord. Why would he be here? Why can't he face her? Despite her curiosity, she felt that it is not the right time to meet with him again. Perhaps the only things she do now is to spend her time with Syani until that right times come.

Truthfully, Syani wanted to explain that she didn't even planned to leave for long. Just out to get a smoothie and come straight back, but she didn't take into consideration of possible distractions, like bumping into the other Lord from Leith so to speak. So when Evangeline refused for her to promise like that, Syani could only silently nod her head with a smile. 'Eva...really cares...' Inwardly, her mind's spouting things like 'no wonder she's a lord!' and 'I can see why Lord Clark loves her', and Syani giggles quietly at how charming Evangeline can be.
Syani tries to be careful with her words when explaining about Clark to her. Like she expected, Evangeline reacted strongly to it. Syani just quietly stayed still there on the floor, watching Evangeline's every move. She can't say anything, since she's unsure of what's really in between these two lords. Well, except "Maybe he likes you too much to really kill you.." Syani provided an assumption. That was why she's even alive in the first place since her school days, what with having a vampire for a significant other.
However, when Evangeline's voice cracked, Syani stared at her in alarm. She tried to peer at Evangeline's face to see if she's really crying, but Evangeline turns away from her. She only turned around to face her after wiping her eyes, in which Syani immediately questioned, "Are you okay??? I can smack him in the head for making you cry, don't worry!" Maybe she can make Clark smack himself by guilt-tripping him... That would be a funny sight. Just as Syani's playing with the thought, Evangeline suddenly demanded something from her as compensation.
"E-eh?" Syani sat straight, surprised after her thought bubble was popped. "Oh, uh, sure, no problem, but why--" Evangeline turned away from her before Syani could finish her question. The half-vampire blinked for a moment and then sighed with a small smile, "Okay. I'd love for you to try something I made, then." Perhaps this is just Evangeline's style. "I don't know what you like though, so you better hint me something later~" Syani added casually, trying to end the conversation in a lighter note.
"Alrighty," the raven-haired nodded when Evangeline requested to have some time for herself to think it through. Syani pulled herself up from her sitting position on the floor after picking up her smoothie and walked towards the small couch there, to sit down and finish her drink silently. She thought of her meeting with Clark, how he admitted that he still held strong feelings for Evangeline. Syani played with the possibilities of why he was stripped from his position as a lord, and then decided that she will have to do more research of the current state of Leith. Perhaps someone published a more recent book that she can look up to in the library later.

During the conversation regarding Clark, Evangeline already understand clearly that Clark definitely does love her when Syani tries to reason with her with her opinion regarding Clark's action. This only gave her a bitter sweet perception towards Clark since she did not like him as a special person.
Evangeline almost gave a smirk, when Syani felt concerned about her when she explained her emotion regarding Clark. Evangeline however just shakes her head as it is unnecessary for her to do that to Clark, she already see Clark as one of the person that she owes a lot now and do not want to add any more trouble to him.
"Something sweet is enough," Evangeline replies as she slowly look at Syani. "Or, you can make dishes using blood as ingredient~" she grins. Evangeline then close her eyes as she thinks deeply about this situations. "If he is no longer the lord, then there should be some reason for him to be here," she thinks carefully. She actually has many questions to ask Clark, but meeting right now is not a good option. After taking her time to think about this, she finally stands up as she turn to face Syani while she rest one of her arm at her hips.
"Regarding Clark, I wish to personally meet him now but it won't do no good if he don't want to see me," she paused as she look at Syani's eye. "Even if you mentioned that he really does love me, he should said it to me directly, if ever he wanted a honest reply from me," she flustered a bit as she looks away. Despite trying to act strong in these kind of topic, it is still something that is hard for her to do so. Having Syani around, she can finally discussed about these kind of matter normally and this makes her to be more talkative and more open than before.
"For now, let us have our own little adventure to kill some time," she smiles as she slowly walks towards Syani before raising on of her hand to her. "Will you guide me? My dear Syani~" she grins. Having her life only secluded in the world of Leith, now is a good chance for her to explore the unknown world to fill her curiosity. Now with Syani on her side, she couldn't ask for more.

'Perhaps the blood-flavored ice cream I've been meaning to make for Zayla the other night...?' Syani mused in her thoughts of the possible sweet desert she could hand-made for Evangeline. This isn't the first time she has spoken to a female vampire, after all, the last one tried to kill her so she tried to persuade the former by offering to make blood-flavored ice cream. Zayla did not appreciate that and wanted Syani for ice-cream, of course.
The half-vampire watches Evangeline think it through, sipping her smoothie ever so often until it's almost empty. She had to return the glass to the bar sooner or later, she thought. Suddenly, a sound attracted her attention, and when she faced the general direction of the vampire, Syani could see Evangeline already on her feet and is making her way towards her.
Her speech after that made the black-haired smile. Perhaps there is a chance for Clark, if he proves himself worthy of her, that is. Syani doubted he knows how to even impress Evangeline, but as long as he keeps trying, he might have a chance with her. "It it comes down to it, I can act as a middle person for the both of you until you're both ready to face each other~" Syani places the now empty glass of smoothie on the small side table beside the couch, smiling widely to Evangeline.
Her smile widens into a grin when Evangeline told her that she'd rather enjoy the time with Syani for the moment and held out her hand to her. "O-of course! I'd love to!" Taking Evangeline's hand, Syani giggled as she stood up from the couch. "I'll make sure you have fun here, Eva~!"-End Thread-
