Smoothing down the folds of the black dress she took one more look in the mirror before she picked up the house phone.
"Fritz, could you bring Rehvenge's Bentley around to the front please? No I'll be fine driving on my own... I appreciate it. Thank you," Ehlena said sincerely.
Taking a deep breath, she clasped the understated but definitely an eye catcher necklace around her throat before she slid the matching earrings on.
"Not bad," she said with a smile. Oh yeah some on the council were in for a surprise.
She picked up her thin wrap, and her clutch with her Driver's license in it and a credit card as she left the room headed down the stairs and out the door just as Fritz pulled Rehv's newest Bentley onto the circle drive.
He stepped out, holding the door for her as she slid into the driver's seat. "Thank you. Oh don't know how long this is going to last but would you put a tray for Rehvenge and myself in our room, please?"
"I will see to it madam," the doggen said. "Fare thee well," he added with a bow as Ehlena closed the door and drove off to the meeting hall.

*She stood at the head of the large, ridiculously ornate mahogany table and yawned while listening to one of the females drone on and on about the almost but not quite spotless lineage of her family tree. She nodded and looked at her.* Yes, well, you see...your bloodline is not pure, no ones is except that of the King. So, if you would kindly take your seat so we can begin..*she smiled again* ...that would be lovely.
*as the female sputtered and turned quickly on her heel she looked up and saw a familiar face coming through the door. She wasn't quite sure if it was exactly who she thought it was but if it was Erick then she wanted to know precisely why he was here.*

Pulling up to the house she put the car in park and the door popped open. A doggen appeared to assist her from the car. Smiling her thanks she headed into the foyer of the home her head held high and she shoulders level.
Spotting Marissa at the head table, she weaved her way up front and found the spot designated for the recorder of the meeting. She slid into the chair and looked up at Marissa.
"Good evening," she said as she felt all the eyes in the place turn and focus on her. Sweet virgin she remembered why she didn't like coming to these meetings. "Looks like not much has changed," she chuckled.

*She smiled and placed a hand on Ehlena's shoulder giving a little squeeze, laughing she rolled her eyes toward the crowd* Of course not, that would require positive, forward thinking on their part.
*Her eyes wandered back over the others gathering. She saw the male again, and by his profile and the way he looked down his nose at everyone she knew it was definitely Erick son of Dorin. She looked over at Ehlena to see if she noticed him being there. She was busy setting herself for the meeting.
Clearing her throat she rapped on the table which brought all eyes toward her* Let us begin please. Rehvenge will be with us shortly he has asked me to begin the meeting in his absence.
*She saw the gruff response from the males and the many eye rolls from the females and smiled* I know you are all so thrilled, but truly let us not take too much time with indignation and get to business. I have a hellren to see to, this eve.

She so loved watching the males of the group twitch when a female of worth and strength held their attention. And the females? pssht just jealous that they weren't where she was.
Dipping the Mont Blanc in the ink well she kept her head down as she began to write in the Old Language taking notes of the call to order and the discussion of old business.
As she listened the room started to fill with quiet chatter as the doggen served drinks and tea sandwiches. A glass of water was placed at her elbow and then down by Marissa's side as well.
Taking a small sip she made sure that the notes were complete and well written, concise and neat on the page. She heard someone voice an opinion about the on going war. Her head came up. Oh this was going to be interesting.

*She took a sip of water as the idiot who decided his opinion was valid, chimed in. Gently placing the glass back on the table she nodded.* Thank you, and as you know this war is at the forefront of the King's mind every day. Also it is the main mission on Brother Tohrment's plate at the moment. The Brother's all of them, Including MY hellren...*she arched a brow*...risk life and limb daily. You should be well aware that they are doing all in their power to control the goings on with the lessening society.
*Looking to Erick she saw his line of sight drawn to Ehlena, she looked down at her as she intently took dictation of the meeting. Looking back up keeping one eye on Erick she sighed and turned to the rest of the council.* Next issue of business please?

Ehlena wanted to cheer at Marissa's answer. If applauding wouldn't have given 2/3 of the people there a stroke she probably would have given her a standing ovation.
What small petty people these "aristocrats" could be. If it wasn't for them, about them, to or through them, it wasn't worth their notice. They could all do with a night on patrol with the males of the Brotherhood. Just one night and they would have a whole new respect for the
Warriors of the race.
Thankfully the next question was about Safe place and the females that were still in residence. If there were any plans for expansion, new officers on the board, donations..
Ehlena wrote everything down and fought back a smile. Yeah they were concerned all right.

Dematerializing in the court yard of what was his mahmen's house he shook out his arms. The moment his atoms come together everyone's grids came on line for him. It was a vast wealth of greed, deceitfulness, and other things that made his symphath sing. Closing his eyes he found Ehlena's and smiled. Walking up the the door the rang the bell and the doggen answered.
"Good eve sire. The meeting has started Mistress Ehlena and Marissa are taking care of things. Does thou require a repast?" The doggen asked.
"I'm just fine Francisca." He replied. Going straight to the library where the meeting was being held he willed the doors open and walked in.
"Well it can be done after all. You will listen to a female of worth and let her lead something." He said as all the heads in the room turned and looked at him. Wavering a hand he smiled at Marissa and winked at Ehlena. Leaning against one of the book shelves he tried to look disinterested.
"Go on. Ignore me act as if I am not even here. But if you keep bitching about Wrath and the Brotherhood. I will arrange for them to come to our next meeting."

*Looking down at Ehlena then back up at Rehvenge she smiled big* Oh yes, that would be fantastic, we should get a first hand account of what our fierce protectors of the race do on a nightly basis.
*She smirked and crinkled her nose then tapped Ehlena's paper* Put that on the agenda for Next month's meeting.

His scent followed him into the room and the warmth of his gaze made her smile and wink back.
The collective intake of air on a gasp was all she could take. She started chuckling at the looks of "HOLY CRAP" that marked her male's entrance. God how she loved that male and his sense of timing. She could see it now, V and Torhment and Butch and Z all marching in fully armed surrounding Wrath and George. and the whole of the council passing out cold.
Glancing at the diamond encrusted Rolex on her wrist she smiled. Yep just about over and she could get out of her 4 inch heels and into a pair of Keds.
Grinning and not even bothering to try to hide it she looked up from her spot, "Duly noted madam chair. I will make the formal request as soon as possible," she replied and had to take a sip of water to keep from bursting out laughing. OH wow.. that really twisted their knickers from the looks on the faces around the table. This had to be the best meeting she had EVER been in..just for the looks alone.

He laughed a deep rich laugh and clapped his hands together. They all looked at him and he smiled a shark like smile.
"Oh pardon me. I was just enjoying you getting handed you collective asses. We are done here. If anyone has a problem with that I am sure I can find a most creative way to fix that for all of you."

*She smiled and quietly thanked the Scribe Virgin for Rehvenge. Butch was off tonight and she wanted to get back to The Pit quickly.
Rapping her knuckles on the table again, she grinned.* So, Rehvenge has spoken we are finished.
*She hadn't lost sight of Erick sitting in the corner, he stood and buttoned his Double-Breasted suit jacket and straightened his tie, picking some lint off the crease of his pants he made his way over to Rehvenge.
She was stopped by a younger female with a huge smile on her face. Still watching Erick over the female's head she smiled* Yes?
"Well, I just wanted to say I think all of what you said is right on! and I support you and all the Brothers and their shellans."
She smiled and took her hands.* Thank you that means a lot. And we all appreciate the support you give us.

Shaking the setting powder over the damp ink on the parchment, she carefully cleaned the Mont Blanc and capped the inkwell before she stood. Gathering the scroll she made her way over to Rehvenge and smiled up at him.
"Notes from the meeting, Sire, " she said with a bow showing off her new dress and jewelry. Her voice dropped to a whisper. "I'm headed to the manse, dinner is waiting in our room. Welcome home, mine hellren," she said as a doggen handed her her wrap.
"Thank you. Please have my car brought around," she said and headed to the door.

Giving her a sideways smile as she walked away. He heard someone clear their throat. Looking up with a bored expression he studied the male. He did not recognize who it was. Moving his sable duster the tuck a hand in his pocket as he rested on his cane he spoke.
"Something I can do for you? I'm a busy man and had things that must done." Rehv could tell the man was nervous but cocky. He tried to Read his grid but caught nothing it was almost a blank field.
"Yes. I am Erick son of Dorin. And I have a request of thee. I would like the honor of courting a female of the gylmera and I did not see her sire here. So I am asking thee since you are the leahdyre."
The male fidgeted while Rehv looked him over. Looking at his watch and then the male he sighed.
"Fine you will meet me at Sal's with your written request and bloodline. Don't waste my time. If you do you won't like what happens."

*She watched Ehlena went to the front to wait for the car. Politely saying her goodbyes she turned and quickly made her way to Ehlena* Hey..Hey..Did you see you was here? *she tugged on her elbow*
I don't think you did. Erick....you know son of DORIN....

Ehlena looked up at the touch to her elbow and smiled at her sister shellan.. "Wait who... Erick.. he was well is here? Okay that can't bode well. He's a big shot wanna be and it was his lie about me that was the last thing my mother heard about her daughter before she... died," she said quietly.
"You know though, good things can come out of bad.. if he hadn't lied about me I never would have met Rehvenge and he's 1000 times the male that Erick could ever be. So maybe in a back handed way, did me a favor," she nodded. "But I will be careful of him, thank you for telling me that he was here. Do you need a lift home? I brought the Bentley? I could drop you at the Pit on my way to the main house?"

The male's features lit up and Rehv caught a glimpse of something before a picture of a field of wheat was put up. Lifting a brow he pulled his hand out of his pocket and buffed his nails on his silk Tom Ford suit. Looking at them he looked back up at the male.
"You will be there at 8 o'clock. One of my men will escort you to the private dining area and we will talk. You will not be late. If you are I suggest you stop what ever aspirations you may have and go elsewhere. Also. If you are doing this just to climb ladders. I am not impressed. I have no problem making sure you get stripped of everything."
The male gasped and Rehv gave him a cobra like smile. "You're dismissed. Now trot off and go kiss someone else's ass. Mine is taken."
Gripping his cane he made his way thru the others who had not left yet to talk to the doggen that where once his mothers and see if they needed anything.
Once that was done he pulled out his phone and sent a text to Vishous.
-txt- Meet me at the manse I need you and Zee to do some searching in only the way you boys can search.

The Bentley came to a stop before them and she smiled. "Good and you are welcome," she said as she slid into the leather driver's seat as the doggen hurried around the car to open the door for Marissa.
With a thank you to the doggen, Ehlena pulled the car into drive and headed toward the Brother's compound.

As the least person left he told the doggen if they where wanting to visit his mahmen's grave that he would take them this weekend. The thanked him and he walked outside and tossed his atoms to the wind. There was info needing to be found.
