Thread: Portal - Darkness Dawning (Black_Out and Eternal Thrill)

The morning was late, and Eve was just stirring in her enormous mahogany bed. Her fiery red hair splayed out across her plush pillow. The deep red drapes were open just enough to let a stream of the days sunlight into the room. Smiling to herself as she stretched like a sleek cat in the bed. It was the two-hundred year anniversary of Crescent founding. The party of the century was to be happening in the home she still shared with her beloved parents. Anyone of importance would there, more importantly Ansel would there. She had been fooling around with the young man for a couple months now. Nothing ever got serious. That is until tonight. She planned to escape with him to her bed chamber and show him just what he had been waiting so patiently for. What better night than the anniversary of the city she spent her entire life in. Ansel Rand , was from a Nobel family such as hers. Perhaps not as wealthy, but almost as important in the city's ranks. He was a year older then her, and betrothed to a girl from a family with a lower station than their own. Eve met the girl on a few occasions. A mousy little thing, with a dull personality. She would consider tonight an early wedding gift. Crawling herself out of the massive bed, she looked across the room at the gown she would wear to the party. This was not going to be something every girl was wearing. Nothing they wore would even come close. That was just how she liked it. Even with all her tomboy tendencies, she still liked to look her absolute best at these events. Standing out in the crowd was the type of person she was. Pulling on a velvet cord near the vanity, rang a bell somewhere in the manor. With in minutes a girl came scurrying into the bed chamber. Ar' we ready ta dress for da party miss, she girl asked in a meek voice. Unsure why the servants were so afraid of her, she shook her head lightly. Yes, I am very much ready. I want you to leave my hair down please. Just use the blue ribbon her to tie around my head. Standing in the center of the room, she let the girl slip the gown over her head. The silky fabric felt amazing on her skin. The neck line and thin straps didn't allow for the need of imagination. Her mother was going to faint for sure. The thought put another smile on her face. She got a great thrill from shocking her parents, as much as she loved them. The skirt of the dress pooled slightly at her feet, just how she wanted it to. Taking a seat at the vanity, the girl began running a comb through her hair. The soft fiery locks came to a stop at her hips. The ends were cut in a perfect line. Moments later she was ready to start the day. She hoped Ansel was already down stairs. Her parents planned for a small luncheon for a select few guests. Descending the stairs she searched for her current toy. Frowning when she didn't see him yet. The luncheon wasn't set to start for another hour. Maybe he was just running late. For now she needed to dodge the sight of her parents. This early in the celebration they may demand she change into something else. Scurrying across the foyer, she dashed towards the kitchen. Every head turned as she entered breathlessly. Squinting a little and pointing her finger, none of you saw me understood? she said with a playful smirk on her ruby red lips. Quickly heading towards the back door, she bumped into a servant she had never seen before. Oh pardon me, she said as she fluttered pass him. With narrowed eyes and another playful smirk, you're new. She then disappeared through the door.
