I stand in front of Rousseau's my new cafe and bar. It looks perfect. It has a rustic feel to it and looks though you had gone back in time, but with a little modern thrown in there. It reminds me of when I was a young girl. As I walk in the door, I hear the little bell ring as I entre. Looking around, there is a bar in the far corner of the room and tables layed all over the place. Not to many but enough. And a little till near the entrance. Behind the till there where two doors, one lead to the kitchen and the other to my office. My office was rustic and old fashioned, just the way I like it. My father has really out done himself this time. There were a couple of things in boxes full of cups, plates and other nick nacks but with a wave of my hand they were where I wanted them, perks of being the devils daughter I guess.
I walked behind the bar and held my hand up, as I did the wall started to slide across. Once it opened it revealed a very large dance area. There were white and red plush booths scarrted with little tablets. At the back there where two doors, one lead to the cellar, where everything is stored, and one lead to my private area, also know as my t*****e area.
I walk out of the club and close the wall and head to the front door. I decided before I open I should probably change. With the click of my figures my jeans and shirt was replaced my a tight fitted long sleeved black dress that reached my knees with red detailing, a pair of red heels and of course my necklace. My necklace is an old Victorian pendant, I'm the shape of a rose. My father had given it to me when I was a child and I have never taken it off. My long red hair was now neatly French plated, smokey eye shadow, which made my red eyes pop, and dark red lipstick.
Once I was happy with how I looked I turned the sign around so it shows that I'm open. One thing I need to today is find a special someone to work here, I'll know them when I see them. And when I do find them they will work here, because I always get what I want.
After 10 minutes of turning the sign I hear the little bell go of. I look up from my book that I had started reading and saw a young girl, maybe 17 or 18 and by her smell I could tell she was a werewolf. She has strawberry blonde hair going to her mid back, bright blue eyes and very red lips. She wore black jeans, a white top with a grey cardigan over the and a pair of Doc Martin's.
I put my book down and made my way to the till area, as slow as I could.
"How my I help you lovely?" I spoke, my british account becoming very noticable.
She jumped a little and gasped "Your eyes" she said under her breath, but she quickly followed with "You were just over there?!" She pointed to the corner where I was sat moments ago. I ignored the comment about my eyes for the moment. You see red eyes have never been seen, werewolves tend to have blue eyes and when their wolves are showing gold, rogues tend to have brown, and vampires have black.
"I move quickly my dear, you must of missed me get up." I replied, trying not to raise any suspicion.
"I must of, silly me. I was just admiring the decorations. It's a very beautiful in here, very homely. How long have you been here, I haven't seen you around? It's like you appeared over night." Said rambled with a light chuckle.
"Well I've been slowly setting up the past 2 weeks actually." I said with a little smirk as that's a complete lie, I did turn up over night.
"Oh. I must of miss you. I walk this way every day to get to school and I haven't seen you before." As she said that she looked down at her feet, almost embarrassed.
"No need to worry love, we all miss things. Now how may I help you?" I said with a small smile.
"Ummm, can I get something to go? I may be running late for school. Can you surprise me?" As she said that my smile turned into a smirk.
"Of course lovely, one house special coming up." I have been thinking what to make here for a long time and I decided my special would be cherry hot chocolate. I know it may seem weird, but once I make myself known to the coverns here it will be an easy way for them to have blood in their drinks. I made the hot chocolate and added the cherry and put a lid on it. I slide it over the counter and said,
"Don't worry about money love, don't want you being any later than you already are." She looked shocked that I said that but that quickly turned into a gaint smile.
"Thank you thank you. I'll repay at some point." An evil smirk appeared on my face when she said that, oh you will repay me, I thought. She turned quickly and made her way to the door, before she left she turned to me and said,
"My names Lilibeth, but you can call me Lily."
"Evangeline." I shouted after her.
Well Lilibeth, we are in for one hell of a ride, I thought to myself with an evil smirk. She will be perfect for the cafe.
You maybe thinking, why were you so sweet to her, well to answer that, I'm not a complete b***h. Most of the time I am, but with pure innocent things I can't help it. I need someone I can trust to run the cafe and she will be perfect.
I moved back to my chair and pulled out my book again, thinking about the opening of the club tonight. I'm sure it won't be hard, after all I have a lot of tricks up my sleeve.
They day passed painfully slow, but I guess I'm use to action. Sitting reading isn't exactly what I'm use to. I decided I should probably shut for today and start setting up for tonight, I'm not being seen at the club I'm just over running everything from the shadows. I will have a couple of demons on the door and ona at the bar. This way no one will know who owns the place. There are only a few reasons someone would see me;
1. They break the house rules, No humans in the club, No fighting and No killing.
2. If they want to make a deal with the devil. Most people think they make it with my father but he handed that job over to me years ago.
3. Want to book the club, but they won't see me, I'll just be sat in the shadows.
I entered my office thinking of all the people I studied, everyone I observed from the shadows before I made my appearance. I already have an idea of who is going to be coming in and out. It was a good thing I did. I know who will be trouble, the ones that sleep around, the ones that know everything, the ones that don't trust their own kind and the ones I would love to t*****e. I have made a list of the ones that can give me the information I need. I will get what I want one way or another. I do hope some put up a fight, I do love a good t*****e session.
Once I've finished sorting out who will most likely be coming, I send a fire message to my father. A fire message is a bolt of fire that goes straight to hell, its how me and my father normally communicate, other than the phone or in our heads, but they or for when anyone is around or emergencies.
Dear father,
I need you to send 3 female demons and 3 Male demons.
I need the females to be good at dancing and the best at getting information.
I need two males as bouncers and 1 as a bar tender.
Also please send fluffy.
Love your wonderful daughter, Evangeline
Fluffy is my hell hound and I love him to pieces. Now the message has been sent they should be here within 30 minutes. I glance at my watch, 9:30.
They should be here by 10, by the time I explain whay they need to do it will be the perfect time to open. I let a smirk creep onto my face with how fun this would be. I have to show them what the real owner of this town looks like.
Let the games begin.
