Shadow On The Front Door :Enter Niall, (Claudine)

[Niall Brigant]

The winds change for only the smallest of moments as a darkened figure stepped into the mortal realm. Two expensive black shoes clicked along the silent streets of Monroe, followed by an extra single click of a black cane. The mysterious figure was dressed in the finest black pin stripped suit and each stride to took towards the house sparked with confidence. To the human eye he would have looked to be a man in his late forties, soft black hair and blue eyes seemed to be endless. In comparison to any mortal he would have been called something more then hansom.

The man was Niall prince of the cloud Fae's one of the most powerful men amongst his people. Lifting the cane so it was in his hand he used the gold handle to tap the front door of his grandchildren house. He stood in silence waiting for one of them to answer the door. a light sparked to life in what he thought would be the living area or whatever the mortals call it he thought to himself. licking his lips he gave the air a taste, it seemed as if Cluade had left already which meant it would be Caludine who remained within the house.

She had a talent for keeping people waiting he smiled, a smile that could lighten the world if he wanted it to or one that would strike fear into the hearts of his foes. He felt her touch the air trying to find out who it was. Niall allowed himself a small laugh as the door began to open, it seemed she hurried for her Grandfather, "My Dear " he said bowing his head."

The hot water spread over her naked body as she closed her eyes and opened her mouth for it to gurgle up inside, she dearly loved water, even though she was a member of the cloud clan she really did have an affinity with water. Grabbing the soap and lathering up she began to sing along to the radio as she got into every corner with the rich lavender smelling soap "ooh ooh aaah aah sexy eyes, I wanna take you to paraddissee" she sung happily as she began rinsing off the soap.

Stepping out of the shower and wrapping the thick warm towel straight off the heated towel rack around her, smiling as the warmth spread across her body. Examining her features in the mirror she pulling her lips back in a grimace she examined her teeth, picking up the brush and spreading paste across it she just began brushing it as the front door tapped.

Annoyed at the interruption she allowed herself to use her power to sense who it was, if those bloody Mormons had returned she was going to spit chips. Her grandfathers smell hit her like bricks, her eyes widened as she ran to the door, almost loosing her towel along the way, her toothbrush still clenched in her hand, blue paste spread around her mouth.

Flinging the door open and leaping into her grandfathers awaiting arms she grinned as she pulled back, suddenly realising her towel had dropped, ignoring it and ushering her Prince and Grandfather into the house she shut the door on a delighted postman, waving slightly at him.

"Grandfather how wonderful to see you" she squealed as she picked up a silk robe of Claudes, wrapping it around herself twice, smelling the stench of two men on it she wrinkled her nose and ducked into her room to get one of her own. "Can I get you a tea?" she asked moving into the kitchen, the sound of the water filling the kettle for a moment before she continued with her questioning "To what do we owe this enormous pleasure of your visit?"

Bringing the tea through she began to dry off her hair with the towel as she sat opposite him, waiting for his reply.
