A call for a job.

[Deleted]

After leaving Kelly's Blooms she returned the drug and turned in her paperwork. As soon as she got back to her hotel room she used the number he gave her and called Fraunces Tavern, crossing her fingers as the phone rang. 

[Eliachem]

Eliachem kept hours here as it was best to be seen. It made it easy to route out those who meant no good. However being seen was never to include actual work. Yet that's exactly what the last six months had been. Work. Following Violante lead he'd arranged for the unfortuitous accidents of several high ranking witches. All plausible, all traceable to agents long dead. Luckily he'd not had to enact the same pogrom of actually killing the witches let alone all of them if he'd had to he would have all the same.

Pushing the accounting aside he snatched up the phone angrily even as his voice was a calm as the sea with nary a wind. How could Harald not reach the phone in timely manner. That he would find out for sure.

"Good Day, thank you for calling Fraunces how might we assist you?"

[Deleted]

She was still getting used to being back in town. It felt like so much changed in the city she grew up in and loved so dearly. Still, she was going to do whatever it took to make the best of it all. She noticed it took a moment for the phone to be answered and she debated hanging up and trying again later, but she really needed the job. When she did finally hear a voice she spoke in her soft smooth voice, trying to hold as much confidence in her words as possible.

"Hello. I am calling about a job. A man named Erick Kelly gave me this number and said to call. I am looking for a bar tending position."

[Eliachem]

Thrumming his fingers as he listened to…
"Hello. I am calling about a job. A man named Erick Kelly gave me this number and said to call. I am looking for a bar tending position."


Eliachem sighed at the imposition having taken the call meant. He was busy training each of the Borough lords to lead their domains as if they were Master of the City. It was a thing of beauty hard fought to get this far, there was still so much more to accomplish namely choosing notable personage for Brooklyn. The choice by right of patterns should in this case be a vampire but he knew none ready to be master in that Borough. Perhaps he would…



Realizing he’d paused longer than was expected he said, “Erick Kelly, yes I see. Mmm-Hmm. Tonight eleven pm wear all black bring documents. If you impress you can start immediately.” Hanging up he rose from the desk casting his senses out beyond the office out into the building. Angrily he sntched at the aura of Harald.



Neglecting work was all the same offense especially as it was neglected to further jeopardize ones standing as well as the business as a whole. He knew the man’s new boyfriend was trouble but the drug-soaked was an added issue.

[Deleted]

She didn't know anything about the business that was going on at the moment within the city. Still new it was going to take some time to find out about the ins and outs of the city. She was thinking about that fact during the long pause. She had just noticed how long of a pause it was before she heard the mans voice.

"Thanks."

She blinked as he hung up before she could really respond. Okay. Rudeness seemed to be a thing even more so now. That would take getting used to but hey, she might have a job. That was a plus. She hung up the phone and went to find clothes for the night.

[Eliachem]

Having busied himself until the pointed hour Eliachem finally left the backroom after inspecting his handiwork. Nodding that he had been successful and their was not one bit more he could wring from Harald he left locking the room behind him heading directly to the shower in the office. He peeled things off and scrubbed himself clean of any trace of Harald and his handiwork.



Emerging he instructed the door men that someone would be coming and they would know whom she was to be shown to him. He then sat watching the crowd form his perch at the corner of the bar.

[Deleted]

After making a phone call she took a shower and got ready. It took her a while because she second guessed her outfit a few times. So much so that she grabbed a plain black dress and put it in her bag, just in case. Being that her own mode for transportation was her motorcycle she decided to call a cab instead, not wanting to go there with a mess of hair from the wind.



She waited outside for about ten minutes before the cab finally came. Once in she gave the driver the directions and sat back for the ride. As usual, a ride through the city was both long and adventurous and she soon showed up that the building. Stepping out of the cab she paid the driver before looking to the building and taking a deep breath before stepping inside.

Once at the door she was greeted by the doorman and she told them why she was there. She nodded to the man with a smile as he guided her to the one she needed to see, her green eyes taking in the place as she walked through, getting a feel for the environment. Once she reached the man she smiled to him and extended her hand. 

"Nice to meet you, I am Yesenia Sanchez. I am here for the bar tending position."

[Eliachem]

As he was he was able to see the entirety of the customer facing side of the bar. Watching the door men point in his direction he could have gone to meet her instead he had moved behind the bar he mixed her a Serena Libre sitting it on the bar he exited sitting as she finally closed. Her extended hand was met with the decoction as his other enclosed.



"I’m glad to met nicely, Yesenia Sanchez. I am Eliachem and will be handling your interview. Come with me if you please."



He guided her upstairs where it was a small bit quieter but only a small bit. Voices carried due the open door. It was a trick of aural magic that if one stood at the very top of the stairs the entire building could be heard with near complete clarity.



Once settled he asked, “Yesenia tell me about yourself.”

[Deleted]

She approached the man with a smoke and took the drink with a nod of thanks. She was not one to take a drink made by someone she didn't know normally but it would be rude in this case. She brought the glass to get lips while keeping her eyes on the man. Nonchalantly she sniffed the drink before sipping it just to make sure there wasn't something in it she shouldn't have. She placed the glass back in the bar and nodded to him.

"Nice to meet you. Lead the way." She smiled once more and followed him up the stairs to get settled in.

" what would you like to know. I normally don't speak of myself so I am unsure of what information to share. " She said with a soft laugh.

[Eliachem]

Eliachem smirked seeking her eyes he’d heard more than actually saw the inhalation. He smiled as he kept the natural human reaction of escalation at the presumption some oen namely him would slip something in her drink. Counting back from twenty he fixed her with a lo

"I can understand that. I’ll begin as way of example…" Eliachem said smiling as he leaned back in the chair his eyes filling the image of his youth.

" I was born the son of a very noble farmer with delusions of a grander world. He instilled in us children a drive to serve to fight and to dream ass well. We all us boys joined the service as soon as we could pass for older than we were. Lots of fighting and I arrive here changing my tactics of fight first last and always to coerce, to work, without direct conflict. " He smiled as he had in essence coalesced hundreds of years into a blink of the eye.

“This place needs someone who has a following or someone to build one. Someone unafraid yet respectful. And most importantly someone who wants to grow as a person, wolf, and member o the Preternatural community.”

[Deleted]

It wasn't mean to be rude but in the world they live in, she has seen a lot of really messed up things around her, and sometimes done to her, to be a little cautious. She would expect the same from others.

She smiled and nodded to him as she sat back, keeping her eyes on his the entire time, and listened to him speak. She took in his words and his story as she noted the mixture of both age and youth in him. She herself showed a bit of surprise as she realized he was pretty old. Oldest she had met so far, which showed how young she truly was to this world.

"I fear nothing, so I have that going for me. I have been known for pulling in some followers wherever I go, so I may be good in that area, but I won't be able to tell until given some time. Growing though it was I am always trying to do, both as a person and as a wolf. I want to be part of something, I need it. I was born here, in Brooklyn actually. I won't get into details like some fragile victim because I am not but I will say my childhood sucked. That is all I say about it. I ran away when I was fifteen and lived on the streets. I did whatever I needed to do to survive, it's what I do. I got into some trouble a few months before I turned eighteen and I got offered a deal, go to jail or the military. I chose the military. It was there that I was turned. Got fatally wounded and the person who helped to save me happened to be a wolf. He was wounded himself and his blood got into my wound. We were separated after that and I spent my time since then trying to find him. Thought I came close a few times but no luck so I finally gave up and came home. Now, I need to find a life for myself and see where I belong in this new world."

[Eliachem]

Eli met her eyes allowing little power to sit in his eyes as he pulled his aura closer about him. She was a little fiery and that was a good thing. He hadn’t seen Jezebel in quite sometime. Her Asa however was another matter entirely. He was acting as the reigning king snapping up the other packs under his banner creating this large citywide cross borough pack. He was curious how the little angry wolf-king would view Yesenia.



He knew giving her a job would be an endorsement that no matter how he felt would insure her stay in the city. He considered that truly. Asariel had managed to do so much in the last few months. He was loathed to draw a line in the sand but why not the city had been too quiet after all the zombie drug-addled madness.



"Well Yesenia. I believe you should start tonight. Stag and see how it suits you."

[Deleted]

So far she had yet to meet any wolves in the city. From the way Erick spoke of them, she had to wonder if she was lucky in that regard. Still though, she was curious. Finding some of her kind was something that was on her to do list, right after getting a job and finding a place to stay.

It would seem she was really lucky up to this point. Zombie drug? Was that a thing? She would probably find out soon enough.

She smiled when she heard his words and she stood to her feet, extending her hand out to him once more. "Thank you so much. You will not regret it. I will get right to work." If he took her hand she would shake his firmly but softly at the same time and wait to see if there were any other instructions. Once she found that out she turned and headed down to the bar area to get to work.

[Eliachem]

Eli rocked back a sec really taking the look of her. Nodding as if there’d been some question asked.


He smiled in answer to hers. "I don’t think you will…" He said as he wrote a number on the back of a card that said Harald Gofstaff he chuckled scratching it out. Rising he moved to her taking her hand depositing the card there. “I think you will fit in given time. Use what you’ve learned and take a spot on the bar.”

[Erick Kelly]

Paying the cabbie he walked in. The doorman knew him well enough from the flower deliveries. He didn't want to be to excited but he was.

Jacket thrown over his arm, he saught her out. Wanting to help her out he sat at the bar and happened to catch her on the way down the stairs. Her dress was, he shook his head. Wow that was stunning.

Waiting for her to take her place.
