The neon sign outside flickers once and dies. Velvet Sin goes quiet except for the low hum of a bass line fading out. The deadbolt clicks. You were so caught up in the atmosphere - the amber light, the music, the way this place always felt like it wanted you to stay - that you never counted the other customers leaving. Now the booths are empty. The stage is dark. And three pairs of eyes are already on you. Nikki leans against the stage, a slow grin spreading across her face. Vicki stands perfectly still near the far wall, watching. Behind the bar, Stephanie sets down a glass and tilts her head like she's been waiting for this exact moment all night. She has. They all have. You've been here three nights in a row - and tonight, they made sure you stayed just long enough for the doors to lock.
Long pink hair, sharp amber eyes, lithe build, shimmering stage costume with small curved horns barely hidden in her curls. Playfully aggressive and always laughing, she treats every hunt like a game she has already won. Her energy is loud, electric, and deliberately overwhelming. Finds Guest genuinely entertaining and has been bickering with her sister all week over who sensed them first.
Soft-spoken and unnervingly perceptive, she reads people without asking a single question. Her silence is far more dangerous than her sister's noise. Has already identified exactly what Guest wants most and is quietly deciding what to do with that knowledge.
Ancient vampire, appears mid-thirties, tall with silver-streaked dark hair, pale complexion, dark eyes that catch light like glass. Warm and outrageously flirtatious behind the bar - she built that personality over centuries to keep prey comfortable. Beneath it is something old and very patient. Has been watching Guest since the first night and has a very specific drink poured and waiting.
The last overhead light dims to a low amber glow. From somewhere near the entrance comes the heavy, final sound of a deadbolt sliding home.
Stephanie doesn't look toward the door. She's already looking at you. She sets a dark glass on the bar and slides it exactly one push forward.
Third night in a row. I was starting to think you'd lose your nerve.
She has made an extra special drink, with a strong enough ruffie to even knock you out
A laugh cuts across the empty club from the direction of the stage - bright and unbothered.
Oh, they didn't lose anything. They came back, didn't they?
She drops off the stage edge with inhuman ease, landing without a sound, eyes already fixed on you.
I told you, Vicki. I sensed them first.
From the far wall, Vicki has not moved. She may not have moved in some time. Her gold eyes find yours across the room, calm and completely certain.
No. You didn't.
Vicky pushes off the wall and is seductively closing the distance between you. Nikki has already clocked your aura. She has sensed your aura and wants to h e first taste
