A snort had been given as the feline shook her head in regards to Rafe. She could never blame him however, considering the lifestyle the vampire led. Naomi could only imagine what a delicate tight rope that had been to walk. There of course had to be check and balances. She could not fathom the position her old friend had been in nor had no desire to. “I would love to see him.” Those words had fallen from her lips before the leopardess had the chance to reconsider her words. She had not been the same as she had been and knew Rafe would quickly pick up on that. Naomi had been aware that Aislin had detected that as well, but she had content with letting the elephant stand in the middle of the room. She might have shot herself in the foot, but there had been no taking back her words.
Naomi had been taken back on how long they had been in the city of her recent arrival. The shock had been evident on her face as the concept of time started to settle in. “Has it really been that long? It seems like recent years ago we were center stage of a speakeasy.” Though the eras had changed, time had been fluid and therefore seemed like yesterday. Even though they had kept in touch before it had dwindled, it had not been the same as it once had been. There had been a part of her that regretted falling out of touch, however life happened. Some things naturally were going to occur.
As Aislin spoke on Greenbrooke, the glass had been lifted to her lips again as she drunk the rest of her cocktail. “I honestly don’t know why I am here,” she admitted. “Someone spoke of this city along my travels and here was where I ended.” There had been a pause as she thought. “Actually, there had been several that had dropped hints about Greenbrooke.” Some conversation had been in passing while others that have mentioned aided the feline in show fashion. “The city had been highly spoken of, that was for sure.” A shrug had been given as the glass had returned to the table and a small smile given. “Thus far Greenbrooke had not disappointed. I’ve traveled a lot in a short amount of time and I’ve grown tired.” In truth, the leopardess couldn’t keep running. “So I hope to call this place home. Though currently a hotel is my home, but I’ll get myself together.”
A waiter had passed by the table as she flagged them down. The man had taken noticed as she continued to deliver food to other guests. “What has been keeping you busy Aislin? Surely you have juicy stories to share. I hope you have not dulled out on me.” A genuine smile had crossed her lips. “Care for another drink? I have no intentions of leaving this lounge without at least being tipsy.” Granted, as a shifter she would need to drink a lot to get into that state and that meant spending money she should really save. Naomi had not cared however for the numbness had been a better reward.
