Looks like he didn’t buy into her little lie. Then again, she hadn’t expected him to, what with her being suspiciously dressed and having been even more suspiciously cloaked in an illusion. She gave a small sigh. It was worth a try, right?

Aria watched as Kenneth moved over to the balcony, slightly confused as to why he was being so relaxed despite the fact that she could potentially attack him while his back was turned. Had he not realized she was part of the infiltrators? No, she was sure he knew. 

[i]” Anyway, sorry darling, but you can’t go up. Too dangerous, you know? Don’t worry about your friends, none. We’ve got some of our guards to help escort the lovely ladies down and out of the building already. Really isn’t safe for you to be here no more. C’mon… let’s get you out of here.[i]”

My, wasn’t he smooth? She couldn’t help but give a soft laugh, stance shifting to mirror his more relaxed pose but ready to move in case he decided the time to talk was over. A hand shifted over to where her fans were tucked securely, bring one up to tap against her cheek. 

“I’m flattered, really,” She gave an alluring smile of her own in response. “ unfortunately I can’t leave just yet. I’m not calling you a liar,” she gave a shrug. “but I don’t quite think you’re being truthful about the whereabouts of the two ladies Lady Vasco whisked away earlier, and I’m certainly not going anywhere until I find [i]all[/i] of my friends.”

Her eyes hardened, sultry smile now a tense smirk. She wasn’t sure how willing she was to fight this man who had managed to break through her illusions so easily, not to mention she was more used to fighting in a pair with Xan than by herself, but then again she might not get that much of a choice. 

“What if I just take a quick peek into the room just to make sure they aren’t there? That should be fine, right?"

Marcus and Selan had better be trying to get information on Estelle and Josette out of the big boss up there.
