Thread: Meeting Family (Nov 15, 2009, Attn: Any)

The black clad employee nods to the waiting woman and picks up the phone. Pressing a few buttons he cradles the receiver between his ear and neck and shuffles some papers while he waits to connect. After a few moments he murmurs softly into the phone, then gently replaces it on the base. Looking up he smiles and asks the woman if she wouldn't mind waiting just a moment.

Minutes later, Miranda walks around the corner towards the desk. She is tiny woman, barely 5' and you'd guess she weighed less than a 100 lbs. Even so, she doesn't look like a child. Tonight she is dressed casually in a long-sleeved green dress. Brown decorative stitching accents the neckline, elbows, wrists and hem. ((pic)) She speaks in low tones for a moment to the man at the desk who motions towards the visitor, looking in the direction he indicates, she sees a stunning Kindred woman. Miranda moves forward towards her guest, both hands extended before her, palms up to grasp the other woman's hand and she leans up to give and receive a kiss on each cheek.

"Good evening, mademoiselle. Welcome to my Galerie, I am pleased at your company." Finished with her greeting, she crooks her arm at her waist and offers it to the other, "Won't you come with me to my office where we might speak?".

As Miranda finishes speaking to Angelique, Evan walks in wearing block docker style pants with a silver and black polo shirt. He is putting his phone into his pocket as he approaches the two. He as an apologetic smile on his face as he looks at Angelique and says, "I am sorry that took so long darling. It was Mr. Arch and it just could not wait." He turns to Miranda and smiles, "Good evening Lady Montreve."

*Angelique takes Miranda's hands and kisses both of her cheeks. She is in a tight red dress with black boots http://madhatterrgames.com/vampire-l...&pictureid=131. She nods to Miranda when Miranda offers to go to the office. When Evan walks in she takes his arm.*

"It is fine darling."

*She looks back to Miranda.*

"Do you mind if Evan comes along? He is showing me the sights tonight."

Miranda nods cordially to Lord Storm when he speaks, and she gives the other woman's hand a quick squeeze before releasing it when they link arms. Looking towards Angelique she says, "I had thought to speak privately, but for you I would consider it a mere trivial favor for his company. My office is small, however and we would need to adjourn to one of the less secure lounges." She waits, eyes on Angelique, head cocked slightly to one side.

*Raises an eyebrow, looking at Miranda.*

"Well if you wish to speak in Private, I am sure that Evan will not mind waiting for me."

*She looks at Evan.*

"Will you darling? It will only be a few moments."

*She smiles at Evan.*

Evan inclines his head with a smile to Angelique and says, "Of course I would not mind waiting. It is a small concession that I am more than happy to make." He then takes a seat in one of the chairs.

*She winks at Evan then turns back to Miranda.*

"Shall we?"

*She waits for Miranda to lead the way to her office. When they get there she will take a seat, legs turned to the side a little, and ankles crossed.*

Smiling brightly she motions for Angelique to follow her, with a parting nod to Lord Storm. "Girls must have our chats, you understand milord."

Walking swiftly, she turns a corner and leads the way down a short hallway to the double doors at the end. Pushing them open, they enter into a spacious, comfortably furnished room. On one side, near the window is a giant mahogany desk. It is cluttered with papers and books. Shelves line the walls and are filled with manuscripts, knick-knacks and treasures. On the far side of the room is an espresso leather couch set. Miranda moves towards these and motions for Angelique to make herself comfortable.

"I don't believe we've had the pleasure of a formal introduction, I was with the Harpy last night and didn't get a chance to speak with you. My name is Miranda Montreve and this galerie is my domain."
