Serafina had started out the evening with the idea of getting more information on a certain demon¡¯s plans when she'd happened upon the small group. Quietly observing their brief altercation with the horseman from the shadows, a thing that both piqued her interest and sparked her concern enough that she'd signaled the others to follow the quickly retreating figures.
If not for certain misgivings she'd had about two of them in particular the whole group would have been snatched up instead of only three members of it. But she just couldn't be sure whether those left behind were trustworthy and with the safety of her daughters to be considered a call was made. Shedding the robe she saw the others already tossing theirs onto the back of the couch.
¡°Do you think that maybe Jessica¡¯s seer friend¡¡± Gabrielle deposited her cloak onto the couch with her expression suggesting she was searching her memory for something. Perhaps a word¡or maybe a name that temporarily escaped her. But then there was that moment when it became clear she at least thought she remembered what it was. ¡°Cordelia, was it?¡±
The blonde nephilim quickly shrugged it off before getting back to her original point. ¡°Would she know anything about them? Or their friend¡¯s obsession with hearts? Which I kinda doubt has anything to do with playing matchmaker.¡± She knew this was likely a point of concern for her mother and most likely why they weren't instructed to go back for the others.
The archangel glanced to her daughter when questioned about the seer, shrugging a little even as Serafina appeared to be giving it some real thought. ¡°I don't know. Maybe. Next time I talk with her I¡¯ll ask.¡± She knew that with both of those women being hunters it could be a wise choice to bring them into this beyond the occasional sharing of information they often did.
Kara was instantly checking her phone after having discarded the cloak causing her dark brown hair to shield her face from view. But even with her attention divided she still followed the conversation in the room. ¡°Liana says she¡¯s on her way.¡± Hopefully her ¡®digging expedition¡¯ was more productive. She lifted her head at hearing Sarah¡¯s obvious excitement over the vampire in their midst.
It wasn't all that shocking when you took into consideration that her adoptive mother had raised a former demon from the dead or taken someone like herself into her family. Being a cambion made her something to either be hated or feared in the minds of some while others wanted nothing more than to make use of her. But she supposed the same could be said of Gabrielle who was on the opposite end of the spectrum.
Gabrielle was on the verge of making an inquiry when she saw her mother's focus was on the recent editions. She took a seat in one of the recliners and waited patiently for the opportunity to ask after Eve¡¯s growing horseman collection.?
¡°Hearts? If that little imp was thinking about those then¡he¡¯s got plans to remove someone's in order to use them like a puppet.¡± Regina said this for the benefit of the others as Emma already knew all about this while they were likely a little in the dark unless they knew that sort of magic.
She wished she could say that it surprised her to learn that thought crossed Gold¡¯s mind but it¡¯d be just like him to do something like that. Maybe some of her energy should be focused on finding or creating some form of protection against it for herself and the others at least given the fact that Emma seemed immune.
Emma was quiet as she watched the strange woman dancing around insanely after making it obvious she'd been quite delighted at that discovery.
¡°I do apologize for the abruptness with which you were brought here but I assure you that we mean you no harm.¡± Serafina spoke calmly as her gaze swept over the new arrivals. One eyebrow lifted at the dark haired woman's clarification of why the strange little man and his friend could be so intent on hearts but let it pass without word as for now her focus had to be on putting everyone at ease.
¡°Ordinarily we don't operate like that but with Eve and THE horseman of Death roaming about the woods I thought it best to get you somewhere safe. I would send my daughters to retrieve the others but there's something about them that I don't trust.¡± She thought it best to lay all the cards on the table.?
¡°My name is Serafina¡these are my daughters Gabrielle and Kara.¡± She said while first gesturing toward the blonde seated in the recliner and then over toward the brunette. ¡°And our overly excited friend here is Sarah.¡±
The archangel drew a breath while looking between the strangers as she was able to glean from them she knew the trio fought on the same side as her. ¡°You might say I have been putting together a little team.¡± Here she paused though a questioning look from Emma caused her to elaborate. ¡°Lets just say the apocalypse is drawing near and I am looking for those not content to stand idly by while it happens.¡±
