Thread: Cruor Luna

Evangeline watched the band set up, lifting an eyebrow at the name. the floorboards? really? what did that even mean? that they got walked on a lot? she wouldn't doubt it if they where playing in a place like this, still they chose a good song, and the few patrons int he club brightened happily at the music. she brought her cigarette to her lips again, her large clear eyes staring at Cal O'Brian... Irish? it was a good strong name, and she liked it immensely. he himself had a very handsome face, for a mortal. she herself was gorgeous, ethereally beautiful as she studied him, her fingers tapping in time to the music as some of the other couples moved over to the dance floor to dance, laughing as they stumbled or even fell in their drunken stupors. as the night wore on, more and more people entered the Bar, drawn in by Cal's sweet tones and the bands clear music. finally the band was allowed to stop for a break and Evangeline stood, winding her way through the crowd and settled next to Cal. hello there. she murmured, smiling at him before looking at the bartender. get them anything they want. she ordered calmly. i'll cover their tab. she promised, smirking as she watched the Band eagerly jump on that bandwagon, ordering food and beer for themselves as Evangeline looked Cal over. i'm Evangeline. she admitted, smiling at him. and your Cal, right? she asked smiling at him as her nostrils flared, catching his wonderfully sweet scent. it made her mouth water with the desire to do naughty things to him. he looked so sweet, innocent even, she couldn't beleive that the one person she would ever love, was that young. you and your band have a very good sound. she admitted smiling a little as she pulled her business card out of her back pocket, sliding it over to him. it was only her name, Evangeline Delruth, and a number down at the bottom. but it was all in fancy, expensive lettering. one did not live for Eons without amassing millions upon billions of dollars. she wasn't sure what this person was looking for in life, but she knew that as soon as she became involved in it, his life would become so much better. she was a Cruor Luna, a Blood Moon. one of the first beings to ever exist on the planet, even before the cavemen. she was one of the oldest, and she was very good at what she did. a Cruor Luna, was a being of great luck, they could bring good luck to those they cared about, or give immense bad luck to people they hated. they could also give good and bad dreams.. they where creatures of balance, of order, and of vengeance. back when man was new, they would give good dreams to the innocent, and punish the wicked with violent nightmares and horrid bad luck. there where too many humans to do that now, but they where still terrible in their wrath if they caught someone doing something particularly wicked. as long as he didn't piss her off, he could expect good dreams, good luck... and a lot of money. it wasn't like she needed it all. give me a call sometime. she ordered, smiling at him as she leaned forward, her lips, as soft as silk brushing against his ear. i can make all your dreams come true. she whispered softly before leaving the bar and heading back to her little corner as the 'owner' of the bar moved forward, telling the band not to get too drunk because they where still scheduled for four more hours, until closing. Evangeline was gone by the time they finished, but the card was still there, almost as if taunting him with the little gold lettering, and the places where her lips had touched seamed to tingle for hours afterwords. even more the manager informed them that 'Lady Evangeline' had paid for their Hotel. yes, she was strange creature, but would that keep him away, or entice him closer? should he have the courage to call her, she would tell him to meet her in a little Cafe, and she would be sitting there, close to the fire and half hidden by a wall, drinking a foaming cup of some sort of coffee, waiting for him.
