"Rafe is the very definition of 'mystery' so who can say." Aislin answered vaguely, still not wanting to give up too many secrets out in the open. There was a chance Naomi knew where the vampire senate now sat but Rafe always told her she talked too freely and Aislin sometimes remembered to watch herself. She also had to wonder how her sire would react to a blast from the past. Would he be open and act like everything was the same or would he be guarded and make sure it wasn't an elaborate trap? Okay, so Rafe would always be guarded and assume the worst and have seven plans in place but that wasn't her style. But she would try to mind herself.
How long had they been in Greenbrooke now? Time was weird as a vampire and a year was barely a blip to some of the older ones. Aislin was still mostly aware of it passing but she was also a lot more connected to the outside world and like being a part of what was happening. "About twenty-two years. A life time to some," it was to her, technically given the age she had died at. It was weird to think of it in such a way and Aislin banished it from her mind.
"But this is a good city for people like us. Still some risks but I don't stand out that much," normally twenty years was a good time to relocate before people noticed the lack of aging but with so many preternatural beings and in a decent sized city, she had less to worry about. Besides, the amount of people that normalized botox and plastic surgery helped some species stay a bit longer in one place now as well.
"Greenbrooke has everything you could ask for in a city. A beach, great nightlife, beautiful scenery and parks to frolic in... and so many fascinating people. I can't wait to introduce you to some of them! If you plan on staying. This isn't just a quick stopover, is it?" That would suck. Finding a friend after so long only to have her admit to just resting for a night after a two week vacation before moving on would be terrible.
