Place your bets(Sevanni)

[Rose Decumbry]

Attire

She was looking for trouble. Some major trouble. Some trouble that could put her in another burn treatment outside of Moscow trouble. She was looking for none other, than Sevanni black. And no one would bother her in Paris, they were much more subtle than that. More mature, and classic. She didn’t tell anyone of her departure, not even Ali or Tyson. She even dressed down, so that her petite and slender physique was hidden. But yet again, how many freakishly short people lived in Paris? Straight edge bangs touched her eyelashes, long hair swinging down to her mid back with each step she took. She was almost tempted to call out his name, like calling a dog. She knew that’d set him off, anything to do with werewolves usually did. Temptation got the better of her. “Here, Sevanni, Vanni, Vanni.” She bit her top lip, to keep from laughing out.

He’d cut her for that later.

That was just the relationship they had. They were like the itches on each others back that wasn’t reachable. You had to find some other way to get rid of. Sevanni’s was setting Hyde on her. That was such a lovely turn out. Way to go Sev, pick a henchman that’s going to fall in love with his target. She kicked a pebble along the river and laughed quietly to herself. She hadn’t made a move yet, the itch still scratching at her. She came to put an end to it here. But could she kill Sevanni? Just yet? Because, seriously, it was so fun to toy and play with him. Walking out with injuries that would kill most people. Most mortals.

She tried calling out his name ago, thick lashes dabbling. She knew what a result in this fight would be. Her probably drenched head to toe, and some major wounds. Sevanni not much better. She stuck out her bottom lip. That’d leave some explaining to do. But she also needed a little wake up call. Exhaling a steady breath, she turned to face the lake, admiring the moonlight hitting it. Every once in awhile she’d still trash about all the times they’d collided. An old amusement park. Where she wanted to die. Surprisingly a wake up call happened there. Seemed odd, didn’t it. Whenever Sevanni was around, she was glad to have a second life.

The highs and lows of it included.

She closed her eyes for a moment, just taking in the scents around her. The smell of bark, a very distant smell of sweets, river water. Ducks. She scrunched up her face slightly. She never had a care for those..webbed creatures. Worthless and senseless. Nothing about them seemed smart. Rose rolled her shoulders to unwind herself, only to rile herself up again. What would Tyson do if he knew Rose had suddenly walked through the doors, begging him to save her? He was already protective enough, in a good way. But too get him even more, was a tad scary. But very appealing. Why was she even hear? Oh, right. A fucking, brilliant minded wake up call. Her shirt caught in the wind, lifting it off of her body. Cold, and bone chilling. Just like the color of her eyes. Hues lifted, and she became rigid and stiff. Damn she needed to find him. She was already completely off of her rocker,(far off) and this wasn’t helping at all. She couldn’t pray, she hadn’t done that in centuries. A decade. In fact, right now, she’d be dead. Decomposed. Trapped in a coffin. The thoughts made her lick her lips.

She wanted to go visit her faux grave. Maybe she could go get buried in it, when and if she did die.

Not tonight though. Tonight she just needed a little bruising, maybe a little blood drawl. Something that needed trouble to cause it. Rose was all the trouble it would need. With her loose lips, and taunting looks, she wouldn’t need very long to piss Sevanni off. Probably just being in her presence, made hi blood boil.

“Here, Sevanni, Vanni, Vanni.” It was always easy to sense when someone was calling your name when the two were in the same area. This one he didn't so much care to hear because of how he had been summoned. Like he was some mutt bastard strolling through the park on all fours. A snarl given with a heavy scoff. They had one hell of a nerve.

Sevanni could sense it now as he strolled the park with Anja. When he had last been to Paris, before the little encounter with Giselle, he had dropped Anja off with a breeder. Sevanni was going to have little cubs running around to be brought up and trained just as she was. Anja was a black panther with beautiful golden eyes. She was ferocious when commanded, but the most gentile soul in the world when you kept her playful and happy.

She was moving beside him now as they walked, Sevanni knew she wouldn't run off or go attacking people. No leash was needed. No chain for that matter. "Prossimo Anja, qualcuno denomina." Spoken rather harshly but in a soft whisper, clicking the backs of teeth as she rounded the bend along side him.

There was a scent linger closer, a scent he was sure he knew but would never assume would appear anywhere near him. Sevanni was still displeased at whatever gypsy spell she put on him. Cursing his beings to fall prey to them and want to turn against Sevanni. Rose was a bowl full of trouble, and trouble had to be taken out of the equation called life.

"As I stand dead and breathless." A hearty spoken short sentence as he made slow strides toward her. "It couldn't be a television...or a poster....no, wait.....your a billboard right?" He mocked in her success. She was one of those vamps that tried to have an actual life. Drawing attention to herself.

"Sieda" He spoke to Anja, telling her to sit. She did so with the most prettiest form a big cat could give. The park was rather clear that night. Not a soul in sight once the two merging of soulless beings merged together.

"Don't you think summoning me is not such a good idea? Luckily I was in good ole Paris picking up my precious girl." He spoke the last part with love and petted her head and under jaw before stopping finally and standing completely to look at Rose.

"I assume you are ready to die then? Calling me to you..." Sevanni took a couple of steps closer making it no less than five feet between them. "Had enough of this thing you call life? Perhaps.....give me the chance to rid your pretty little head from that traitorous body?" A grin played gently over his lips like the subtle sweep of a violin. Such a beautiful sound.

[Rose Decumbry]

The air seemed to grow colder, as he drew nearer. No backing out now. Her back was still facing him when he spoke. "Your not the only one Sevi dear." Her eyes went down to the cat. A Panther. Seemed fierce enough. An eyebrow raised, in mock surprise. "That's a nice kitty you got there." A playful smirk danced on her lips. She'd never been one for keeping pets. She even laughed a few short times when he made the stab at her job. "Actually, just got finished with a runway. Wouldn't Hyde be the first to know?"A stab taken right back at him.

He only seemed to send worthless, weak-hearted people after her. It just made her day easier.

She faked a yawn and stretched her arms, her shirt picking up along her subtle abs. "Yeah..I guess in some sense it was, wasn't it? But..I got bored with myself. An endless cycle, you know? So I decided to come visit my old friend..Sevanni." She let out a Cheshire's grin. "How long have you had her? Is she as vicious as you?" A small tip of humor, though it was weak. She was avoiding the obvious situation. Sevanni came looking for the thrill of the kill, he wouldn't find it here. Not with her at least.

She uncrossed her arms, realizing how much taller he was. Intimidating to say the least.

"No. I'm not ready to die, to your disappointment I'm sure. I have a life to live for. I just need to be reminded of it.." She tilted a blond head to the right. "But that's what your good at isn't it? Making people remember why their still full of blood." Eyes flickered back and forth between the two.

If it was one thing Rose had learned over the years, it was to never make the first move. Hell, the two of them could stand here to sunrise, it wouldn't matter. Sevanni played dirty, and had how many years on her. Rose was just quick and agile. How far would it get her though? You need more then just agility if you ever wanted to survive in the world of vampires. That was just how it worked.

Her short span of the vampiric world showed it. She kept her eyes trained on him. On the pretty little kitty as well. Already she was outnumbered. That cat would probably eat her alive if he commanded it too.

Rose could have said anything at any time to try and stall the moment of interest. Rose had grown to be rather different than before. The little remark about Hyde made him nearly frown or snicker. Anything but keep that subtle composure about himself. If Rose had never turned her back on him when he took a head, then they wouldn't be going through this. All she had to do was she she had a change of interest. If she couldn't stand the heat, then she shouldn't have entered hell.

No she could have told him instead of trying to overpower him and try to degrade him in front of fellow peers. He supposed that was when he finally captured the look of his ex. Disregarding the comment about the kitty, it was none of her damn business. He was there picking her up and nothing more. She needed to be walked, so he walked her.

"Va il gioco piacevole" Spoken out to Anja who gave a turn and a prowl. She would go walk around, keep others away. Do her business if she so chose.

Sevanni half turned as she spoke, more disregards but the words lingered in his head. Hands clasped the metal to his sides as he leaned against the rail. "If you had just told me we weren't for you, I would have understood and let you go......" He spoke the words out with a drowning tone. Dull.

Pursed lips, a thought......I've wanted your head for a while now Rose......you have done something to one of my best men.......You constantly mock me and defy everything I stand for......."

He turned his head to the side to look at her. "But I will not take party in your heated feelings toward me......I thought it best to have someone on you who I thought could do the job.......But there must be something about you if you appear to be so important. So eager to flee from death." He spoke as if he were deep in thought and thinking on things of the past between them. Even when Hyde ate her eye she had still barred against them all.

"So what do you want from me Rose? Hmmmm? A thrashing?.....something to remind you of why your still here on earth......the walking dead." A chortle lifted as he shook his head. "Another female vying for my attention..... Don't you think you've taken enough abuse from me? Or are you simply a masochist?"

It was worth the question. If she wasn't, then she had some serious mental problems to ask him of this even though she hadn't out right asked.

[Rose Decumbry]

So he was calling off Ms. Kitty then, eh? Lovely. That would just even out the scores so brilliantly. She smiled at him like he had given her the best gift ever. Not the case exactly, but it'd do. "If you had just told me we weren't for you, I would have understood and let you go..." She tilted her head thoughtfully. "Yeah. I could of. But, see here, it's not that it wasn't for me. I'm all about it. I'm just to independent to be like that. Hence the reason Tarus and I made our own Coven. But you'd know that. You killed him." A little snarl escaped her lips. She wiped it away quickly, but she knew he already saw.

Quick.

"I've wanted your head for a while now Rose......you have done something to one of my best men.......You constantly mock me and defy everything I stand for" Her eyebrows raised clear behind her bangs. Really, did she now? She let out a playful grin, and chortled. "Sevanni. The secret to making a woman laugh, is not to tell her exactly what she did. Can you say it again, I didn't quite get it the first time." Teasing him. "What made him fall for me Sevanni? The beatings he put on me. Or am I just that good?" She wanted to see him flare, his temper rise to a tipping point.

She wanted him to grovel.

"But I will not take party in your heated feelings toward me......I thought it best to have someone on you who I thought could do the job.......But there must be something about you if you appear to be so important. So eager to flee from death." Her eyebrows furrowed. Heated feelings? Implying her constant and eternal hate for him. Point for Sevanni! "I always thought I was important Sevanni. Hyde just esclated it torwards you. He means nothing to me." She wouldn't let Sevanni see the fact she did have someone who meant the world to her. Tyson. She blinked at the thought of his name crossed her mind.

"So what do you want from me Rose? Hmmmm? A thrashing?.....something to remind you of why your still here on earth......the walking dead." She looked down, smiling. Yeah, you could say that. "I guess yeah, I also like causing distress torwards you too." She looked up, nose crinkled and that smirk still there. It was true. Seeing Sevanni Black squirm like a warm bought warmth to her heart. The smirk didn't stay for long, instead it turned to a dark frown.

"Another female vying for my attention..... Don't you think you've taken enough abuse from me? Or are you simply a masochist?" She let out a low breath, and turned her eyes dark on him. "I will never want your attention. Your low to me. All I look for is a little fun. Maybe a wake up call. But don't ever confuse it for vying. Ever." She was upset now, ready to strike.

Was that what he wanted though? She restrained her legs from moving, hands from flying. She would restrain her mouth anymore. Anything she said to him from now on, would be meant to hurt him.

[HIDDEN EVIL]

"I guess yeah, I also like causing distress torwards you too." He already knew this. Rose had been a betrayer of many things, popping off like she did then was uncalled for. Now she was doing nearly the same continuous actions she had been doing for a couple of years now. Sevanni was most tired of it.

Her little smirk turned ghastly, and to his own reply she had smited out with the most foulest words to ever grace her lips from her to him. "I will never want your attention. Your low to me. All I look for is a little fun. Maybe a wake up call. But don't ever confuse it for vying. Ever." Sevanni chuckled. It felt like how he laughed at the most dumbest things lately. Like with Lars, or even Emiste.

"You say that as if it were true little one." Again he chuckled on and managed to take his eyes off of her. "I suppose it was inevitable...." He let out a soft sigh and grew to be comfortable on the railing. Rose wanted to get a rise out of him and he wasn't going to let that happen. Not because she needed it or willed it to happen with her pushing and prodding. He didn't work around her.

"You will continue to push my buttons until one of us is dead, but I can assure you it will not happen on your terms." Okay so he said it out loud. So what? The only thing she could do was attack him first and he didn't think she'd have enough courage for that. If she did, then she was on one hell of a roll. He could grab a bit of a snack before his actual feeding time. Rose did have such nice blood.

"I would think someone in your position would have a bit more decency with a fellow vampire....no matter how great the hatred." He said it rather softly before speaking again with brushed off words or carelessness. "I am of no threat to you now......I do not rule anymore....so why continue to provoke me?" He wanted to know in all honesty, if it wasn't because of his position, then it had to be for a reason, and he had hoped it would be a damn good one. Considering after Hyde botched up the mission and bowed out of chasing her down, he didn't want just anyone on her tail.

[Rose Decumbry]

Sevanni Black and her had some tiffy history. Always tumbling and coiling whenever the two crossed paths. But it didn't seem like tonight was going to be one of those nights. Sad really. A blank portait stared at him, icy hues confused. Usually Sevanni would have said something provocative, and Rose would of struck. Regardless of her never making the 'first move' thing. A short temper came with a short wave of new words, and not all the time nice and tidy. "You say that as if it were true little one." She scowled, and dared to take a step closer to him. He knew nothing. "But Sevanni dear. It's perfectly true." Her British twinge floated on her whispered words. Of course it was true. Her heart was closed off, sealed for good.

Only few made their way into it. When he took his eyes off of her, she took a sharp breath in. His words. I suppose it was inevitable... What did that mean? Her eyes were downcast now, trying to find meaning in this. Was he working words on her? Was he making her think, so they wouldn't fight? Was he calling her beautiful by his inevitable comment?

Head swirling once more.

"You will continue to push my buttons until one of us is dead, but I can assure you it will not happen on your terms." She pouted slightly, disappointed. She'd go to a bar then, beat the hell out of a few guys there. Depended on who moved first. Never would have been her.

"I would think someone in your position would have a bit more decency with a fellow vampire....no matter how great the hatred." She rolled her eyes, beneath closed lids. "Decency? I lost that as soon as fangs probed my neck Sevanni. I don't show you decency for one reason, and one reason only." Because she felt like him. Felt a hate for a species, felt the love for fighting. Being a predator. The thrill of a kill. Being a vampire. Rose would never reveal this to him. He'd use it against her one day probably. Probably one of the final battles they'd fight together. She grimaced. That, would be one of the bloodiest days of her life. One of the most remerable as well. That was, if she was the one who walked out alive.

It was a game, Get Out Alive.

"I am of no threat to you now......I do not rule anymore....so why continue to provoke me?" He was always a threat to her. Always hanging above her head. When she walked alone. Large crowds. "Sevanni, I've seen what you can do. I've seen what your awful henchmen can do. You will for all eternity, be a threat to me. Even if somehow we come to a peace, I will never let my guard down around you." A promise. She looked down, looked back up at him, then looked down again. Unable to believe she was about to say this. She'd say it low, really low. "And..you scare me. You scared me when I first walked through those doors..." She bought her tone down lower, if possible. "And you scared me when I walked out.." A tone down. "And even now..standing here. I feel like your going to do something." She slowly bought her eyes up to his.

"Your the only one who can beat me in this world..the only one who can destroy me to bits.." Wreck her entire world. Everything she'd built up.


All to be destroyed by one man.

She swallowed, her uneeded breathing uneven. She had really just given him what he was probably waiting to hear. And now she could hide the emotion on her face. Disbilief, and fear. Something she never let show around him. And boom. There it was.
