Devi had just made it to the door of the mansion when she heard someone approach. She turned to see a rather young-looking man. He made a comment about not being the first one here and if she was here for the meet-n-greet. Devi looked at the new comer and grinned. A mischievous grin at that. "Yep, here for the meet-n-greet. Names Devi. And yours?"
When the door opened Devi turned her attention to who had opened it. She grinned at seeing Jordie. When he greeted the two of them and said that Aurora was waiting for them. "It is good to see you again Jordie. You are looking as handsome as ever." Her tone was friendly. She then looked to Lightening Rod and held out her arm. "Let¡¯s not keep the boss lady waiting."
(Lightning Rod)
"I'm..." Roddy hesitated a bit. 'Roddy' just didn't sound impressive. And he was here to impress.? "...Lightning Rod," he finished, imagining a suitable musical theme in his head, something ominous with minor chords. But debonair.? Yeah, definitely debonair.? ?
At that point the door opened to reveal a stranger in sunglasses, a man whom Devi seemed to know.? Apparently, he worked for Aurora and was here to open the doors and stuff.? He noticed that Devi was holding out her arm expectantly.? "Right. Don't want to keep the boss lady waiting," he said, taking her offered arm on his and stepping inside.? The interior that he could see was even more grand than the exterior had been.? He gestured grandly to the sunglasses guy.? "Lead on, Jeeves."??
(Raine)
Raine was only slightly disappointed by the request, he felt like a fool a bit.? He really had dressed for her, he was actually hoping for¡never mind.? ?By the tone of her voice, she knew he had made himself more than presentable for her, that alone made him appreciate it.? He felt her fingers moving across his chest, the soft voice from her as she made her desires known.? He wished he wasn¡¯t so smitten by her he might have resisted.? But she was more of the brains of the outfit.? He wasn¡¯t stupid or dumb his cunning existed in the use of his powers, he was creative deadly and had learned their use more supremely being with her, not sure whether it was to impress her or teach her that he could be her equal both in and out of the field.? He leaned down and kissed her cheek lightly, very much wishing it was her lips he was tasting.? He wasn¡¯t angry he knew they were leaders together and if this was to be her show of solidarity then so be it.? ?¡°As you wish my sweet.¡±? He moved away from her to go change, one day he wouldn¡¯t be kissing her cheek solely and she would also be kissing back.? His hand swatted her rear as he moved away from her, it was something that did and he had not only gotten used to doing it but he enjoyed anytime he could put his hands on her body.? He could be playful at times and not all serious but she only saw that side, outside of his family.? Tonight his desire needed a bodyguard, for her he would do that without question.
They had been together for a bit and he was hoping one day to get beyond their simple flirting.? To the point to where he would be hopefully peeling her out of that dress that made her look so divine this evening.? He found himself thinking of his family, each one of them.
Most of all the fact that he had spent the day with his beloved sister.? He knew full well why Brandon had been in love with her.? He too might have fallen under her spell, but those two were thick as thieves and he was simply her protector.? The strange thing was it didn¡¯t matter as much to him.? He wanted a sister more than a lover with her, he knew where she was most of the time and he made sure no one hurt her.? Sure, some guys got the hint the hard way and broke up with her, but he made sure none put a hand on his baby girl¡period.? He knew she was intimate with others it was her choice but he didn¡¯t do hurting her or disrespecting her at all.? She was his sister and he didn¡¯t allow that!
He quickly undressed and put on his bracers a gift from his father.? The man was a genius costume maker and the items easily went along with his powers.? He undressed hanging up the suit, maybe he would just after ask her out in order to wear it¡it wouldn¡¯t be a surprise though since she had seen him in it.
He pulled on his shirt and shorts, pants, and boots.? Even though the bracers generated the costume it needed some material to start with generally, that and if something went wrong he didn¡¯t want to be naked.? Not that they ever did with dad¡¯s things but he wasn¡¯t wanting to be identified and link things back to the family.
When the costume was activated, he was in a cowl mask only allowing his mouth to be free, his eyes were visible but they had only become white in the outfit with no pupils which meant he could be any black man beneath the outfit that still revealed his muscular form.
(Aurora)
Aurora gave Raine a giggle as he gave her rump a swat, ¡°but not in front of the dinner guests.¡± She reminded him as they went their separate ways for now.? She had picked up on the movement from Mara out of the corner of her eye.? She had gotten pretty good at knowing when her spy was around, with a smile she quietly said, ¡°glad you are here my friend.¡±
She took her place at the head of the table and waited for the others to arrive.? Liza, Jordie¡¯s lady gave Aurora a smile as she took her place at the table.? ¡°How many are you expecting?¡± She asked her boss.? ¡°Two for sure, maybe a third.? We will see.¡±
(Jordie)
¡°Name¡¯s Jordie.? I am not the butler or Jeeves, Roddy.¡± Jordie said with a smirk knowing that would get the lad¡¯s attention.? ¡°Respect is a two-way street around her, Lightening Rod, remember that.¡± He led them to the dining room and once there took his seat next to Liza.? ¡°You are there,¡± he pointed to a seat across from his, ¡°Devi. And you are there,¡± He pointed to a seat a few chairs farther down the table, ¡°Lightening Rod.? This is Liza and you all have met, Aurora.¡± He said indicating their boss sitting at the head of the table.
