       "I'm glad that makes you happy." Said willow with a bright smile
       and heard him groan and chuckled at him about Raphael teasing
       him. "It just means he's in tune with you...you do know there is
       such thing as more than one soulmate yes?" She said with a small
       smile."somehow you two just fit." she said blinking..not
       thinking twice on what she said. She had noticed a few things
       about Raphael over the coming days, and wasn't opposed to that
       sort of relationship, though she wasn't going to tell guy that
       she preferred Raphael's cooking over everyone elses. Least not
       right now. But she wasn't even sure if guy was into the idea of
       a relationship of her and another. It made her feel a bit bad
       knowing she kind of found the idea of the two of them
       together.... She shook her head a minute banishing the thought
       to not get any more red than she had. How could she?
       She was brought out of her thoughts with a tug of Guy's hand and
       a slight stumble to catch against guy. She could see his eager
       look and smiled at the idea of a picnic."That sounds fun!" she
       said once she regained her footing.She clung to his arm lightly
       to walk with him to the car, and got back. She picked up what
       she needed and got back in the car to give off a small giggle
       and she did the one thing that was out of character from her shy
       nature. Maybe it was because guy had been taking so much
       initiative to kiss, and she got a bit more comfortable..one
       wouldn't know. She lightly placed her hand on his thigh, just
       resting it to look out the window while they were going to get
       food, before heading to their picnic area. Her heart thudded a
       bit against her chest as she decided...she would try to be a bit
       more forward.

       Asha gave a smirk hearing date and started to chuckle."Bout time
       the stiff actually got a date." she said with a bright smile.
       "maybe he will actually get some real 'fun' " today She said to
       walk off making trip roll his eyes."Love takes time woman!" he
       said and huffed.Granted now he hoped this would mean his woman
       could work there. He knew she was fairly charismatic and thats
       what he liked. He put his apron on."Either way I'm going to go
       cook." He went to go to the kitchen when Raphael cleared his
       throat."Just one more issue than you can go, given the fact that
       the necklace Willow has is of magic in nature, stop looking for
       it..we believe it might appear on its own if it just wasn't
       looked for." He said making trip sigh.He made his way to the
       kitchens and began his prep work.

       Jackie gave a sly smile and looked at Hanna with a smirk. Though
       they hid it from the others Jackie had slipped up once or twice
       in which hannah had to cover for their asses, but now...she
       could slip up and be okay since guy was dating willow. She made
       a happy looking smile to go get changed to her uniform and got
       things put up. Her hair up in a ponytail.She wondered how the
       dynamic would be in the place now and just how many
       relationships would come out in the end. Though she had no clue
       who hooked up with who. She smoothed her hair back that was
       still escaping to the small hairs giving the wild look she
       always had to get to the bar and begin setting up the chairs.

       Stefano looked at Rodrigo, they had been married for some time
       and to hear this meant things would be a bit different. Though
       they had a running bet on how long it would be till someone
       realized they were married. He and Rodrigo went for tattoos on
       their fingers rather than rings, they felt it would of been more
       inconspicuous if they did so, and allow them to work together
       since they knew how to fight and defend...so being bouncers made
       sense and being the rules and how the bar was neutral ground,
       didn't want to lose that.

       Guy raised an eyebrow at Willow's insight on Raphael being in
       tune with him. He wasn't sure what to think when she mentioned
       that there was such a thing as having more than one soulmate. IT
       sounded like something his grandmother might know more about.
       He was slightly taken aback by Willow saying he and Raphael fit.
       He hadn't really thought about it, but Raph did seem to know
       what he was thinking before he said things. Or he would at times
       be able to know what Guy was wanting when he needed it. It had
       always made him wonder if Raphael could read his thoughts or
       something.
       Guy had noticed Willow's shake of the head and wondered what she
       was thinking of. He could have asked but thought it would be
       better to just let her tell him if she wanted to. Pressing her
       about private thoughts was kind of pushing things a bit far.
       Guy felt a bit badly when she stumbled and wrapped an arm around
       her to steady her. He ran his hand up her back as she smiled up
       at him with a bright smile on her face. "It should be a whole
       lot of fun," He agreed. "I know you're going to love the
       gardens. They are one of a kind." He told her.
       They made their way back to the car and he started off to his
       grandmother's place. He was a bit surprised when she laid her
       hand on his thigh and glanced down at it. His body started to
       respond to her touch much to his embarrassment. It had been
       quite a while since anyone had touched him in such a way.
       "Willow, are..are you wanting to move faster?" He asked stopping
       the car at a red light and tried to calm himself down a bit.
       He really did like Willow and wanted to do more with her though
       he had been holding himself back. If she was ready and wanting
       more, then..well..he'd be willing to go there. He just hadn't
       thought she'd want to be with him like that this soon.

       Ayo couldn't help but echo her sister's chuckle feeling a bit
       amused that Guy had finally decided to ask Willow out on a date.
       It certainly had taken long enough. She and Asha had noticed
       Guy's longing looks at her since they'd started working there.
       Though it had only been a few weeks, the twins didn't miss much.
       Especially if it had to do with any sort of drama in the bar
       among their coworkers.
       They were rather new to the neutral territory, but found the
       rest of their coworkers lives and personalities highly amusing.
       Especially Raphael. The man was a hottie, and his obvious
       interest in the  Guy who didn't seem to notice had been noticed
       by pretty much everyone. Her and Asha had an ongoing bet on how
       long it would take for the Guy to figure out that Raph had the
       hots for him.
       "Hey there Victory," She said winking at the hot bartender as
       she walked in and slide behind the bar. "You're looking sexy
       today," She flirted as she helped out with setting up the chairs
       and wiped down some chairs that had gotten missed in being
       cleaned thoroughly. "If you ever have a free night, you should
       come clubbing with Asha and me." She suggested with a friendly
       smile.
  HTML https://i.imgur.com/eg0jWj9.png
       Hannah caught the look that Jackie sent her way and gave her
       girlfriend a small smile back. It was actually really good news
       to hear that Guy was interested in Willow, and had the feeling
       that the rules might relax a bit more. Sneaking around with
       Jackie had made her worry constantly that they'd get caught and
       possibly get in trouble with their manager Ted and Guy the
       owner. She followed Jackie back to the locker room to change
       into her work uniform and laced up her sturdy work shoes.
       She couldn't help but look up and watch as Jackie messed with
       her hair before pulling her own short hair back into two small
       pigtails on each side and follow her out to get the main room
       ready for their customers. She couldn't help but shoot a few
       more appreciative glances than normal at her sexy girlfriend as
       Jackie moved around the room. She probably wouldn't have done
       that had Guy been around, she was still going to more than
       likely be cautious even when he was around.

       Rodrigo felt eyes fall on him and turned slightly to see that
       his husband was shooting him a look at hearing Raphael's news
       about Guy dating Willow. He felt his lip twitch into a small
       smile and winked at him. He was still surprised that no one had
       picked up on the fact that they had gotten married over a month
       ago. It wasn't as if they had ever broadcast that they were into
       one another though. They were very discrete about their personal
       choices. Mostly due to how judgmental their families were.
       It was one of the reasons why they had left the enchanted realm
       and moved to the human one. While humans could be judging and
       close-minded, they were far more open than giants were. While
       the two huge bouncers looked human enough to pass for the human
       race, they were actually half giants.
       Rodrigo remained silent through all the talking and once the
       meeting concluded, he moved to check out the security tapes to
       make sure no one had been lurking around the building during the
       night. He nodded at Stefano as he passed him and let his hand
       brush ever so slightly on the man's waist before heading into
       the office where Raphael was gathering up the check lists for
       the supply orders.
       "Just gotta check the tapes," He murmured in a deep gravely tone
       as he slipped around Raph quietly and brought up the feeds.
       "Congrats by the way. On the marriage and all." Raph said
       without looking up.
       Rodrigo's eyebrow rose and he turned to look at the man. "You
       knew?"
       "Yes, not that I'd have said anything. You two are a great team
       and you don't get distracted by petty things. So..I didn't see a
       point in mentioning it."
       Rodrigo wasn't sure how he felt about the wizard's
       perceptiveness..but decided to just be glad the man was on their
       side. "Thanks. We appreciate that." He said gruffly and went
       back to checking over the camera footage.
  HTML https://i.imgur.com/KDYKvPz.png
       Hidaeki was relieved that the wizard wasn't upset with him
       nearly being late. He was much more used to the strict uptight
       managers he had worked for in the last place he and his sister,
       Kira had worked in Little China. Raphael and Guy seemed much
       more laid back and didn't seem to care so much as long as he got
       his work done and didn't cause any problems. Not that a quiet
       soft spoken Hidaeki would really try to cause problems.
       He wasn't sure what to make of the news that Guy was dating one
       of the waitresses, he was sure his sister would be all excited
       to hear about it when he told her later. She seemed to really
       like listening to the gossip in the bar. He let his head go down
       and followed Trip back into the kitchen to get set up to wash
       whatever dishes the short man used as he prepped food for the
       day.
       "Uh Mr. Trip, if there's anything else you need done I can lend
       a hand." He said softly glancing over at the man hoping that he
       might one day get a break and get to do what he was truly
       passionate about. Cook for people and show them just how good he
       was. "I have had training to be a sous chef," He added with a
       hopeful tone. With Marcus off for the day due to his shift at
       the firehouse, Trip was going to be a bit more swamped than
       usual.

       Willow got a soft blush a bit to hear the question and saw he
       looked a bit embarrassed to remove her hand."o..oh! I'm sorry
       I..ah..." She said blinking."If you want to I just didn't think
       With how jumbled things were...I figured it would be okay to
       want a little more." She put her hands on the hem of her skirt
       clutching it."but if I am going to fast please let me know." She
       said her face bright red now.  She fidgeted a bit. "with the
       mess and the kiss I guess I just thought..." she said "I thought
       it would be okay to move forward." she said softly.
  HTML https://i.imgur.com/zRDhfdd.png
       Trip was making his way to the counter to see hideki offer to
       cook. He crossed his arms a bit and seemed to really think about
       it. He was particular about his kitchen and how it was ran.
       Though In his head it was his kitchen. He let off a breath after
       realizing he'd just be swamped."Yeah sure kid, just keep up." he
       said to walk in  to gather the vegetables for prep."start
       peeling and cutting." he told him as he went to prep the meat.
       He started to look at some of the spices and went to get a pan,
       once he brought it down for some of the meat to marinate in a
       bit he noticed something odd."eh?" he pulled it up and made a
       face."I wonder if this is the necklace raph was talkin bout keep
       workin' I'll be back." he said to walk off. He made his way to
       the office to give two knocks and came in."Hey raph." He said
       dumping the necklace on the desk."Found this thing in a
       pan...this the necklace?" he asked and made a face."If it is its
       rather plain..I dunno I expected it to be more shiny?" he said
       to blink at him.

       Stefano saw the smirk to chuckle and go work a bit making sure
       basic handyman work was done. He did stuff like this time to
       time, even fixed the plumbing. He wiped the sweat from his brow
       after fixing a problem in the mens bathroom to walk out after
       washing his hands. He tossed the out of order sign out and went
       to change for the business to start. He threw on his security
       shirt and a fresh pair of jeans to walk out. He usually carded
       people out of the two. He waved a bit to asha who smiled back to
       wave as they were speaking to victory.

       Victory rather sullen blinked a bit to smile. "Ah sounds fun."
       she said with a bit of a wink."And your one to talk..granted
       both of you look gorgeous." she said to chuckle as Asha leaned a
       bit to help take down chairs. She and her sister were not just
       similar in looks but in tastes. Granted it took alot to let the
       other date the same person they wanted when they both found an
       interest. "Clubbing would be fun beable to get my groove on."
       she said to move her hips a bit back and forth to wink and
       chuckle to get another chair down.
       Victory let a breath out."but fare warning I can't dance..so
       hope you don't mind giving me lessons aya." she said eyeing the
       woman that was helping her. Granted once in a while she got her
       confused with her twin.

       Guy noticed her blushing and felt a bit bad about bringing it
       up. Especially when she started to apologize for touching him.
       "Willow, I like you touching me and the attention. I want more
       with you I do. Though..maybe keep your hand off my thigh in the
       car." He said getting a bit red. "I'm more likely to get jumpy
       when you touch me there." He admitted.
       "How about we try that again later? When we're stationary and
       not in a moving car? I really do want to move forwards and do
       more than just kiss."
       The light changed and Guy pulled away, and shot a glance over at
       her. "Please don't feel bad, I guess we just need to talk about
       what we want and decide things together."
       It wasn't much longer before he was pulling up to what looked
       like an abandoned lot with overgrown shrubs and trees and
       flowers interspersed between them. Guy parked his car and got
       out and moved to open her door. "We have a bit of a walk, but I
       think you'll like it." He told her with a smile and pulled her
       close to him. He moved to brush away what looked like a bush but
       was actually a wooden door painted to look like the trees and
       bushes around it.
       Inside the door was a long cobblestone walkway
  HTML https://i.pinimg.com/564x/14/ea/eb/14eaeb414349564ff4199ec410defb5d.jpg<br
       />was surrounded by flowers of all kinds. Up in the distance was
       an archway covered in vines and branches and beyond that was a
       small woodland cottage

       />surrounded by more bushes of flowers and old trees.
       "So..what do you think so far? I imagine my grandmother is
       either in the house or in one of the many gardens on her
       property." Guy said glancing around at the small hidden
       entrances in the bushes that led off to each garden. "I think
       the house should be the first place we check."
       "Raphael? Is that you?" A melodic voice called from the left.
       "oh It's soo good to see you!"
       Raphael turned and a bright grin filled his face when his very
       over the top whimsical grandmother
  HTML https://i.imgur.com/zfCKqZE.png
       came out in a bright dress and
       makeup and launched herself into his arms. "Look at you baby!
       You're so handsome! Oh and who is this lovely young woman?" She
       asked, her eyes turning to take in Willow with an eager look on
       her face.
       "Oh, well..This is my girlfriend Willow. Willow, I'd like you to
       meet my grandmother Meranna." Guy said feeling his face redden
       slightly.
  HTML https://i.imgur.com/KDYKvPz.png
       Hidaeki waited patiently as Trip thought over his offer with
       his hands clasped behind his back. He grinned widely at Trip's
       words and moved to grab a peeler and started to prep what Trip
       needed. His movements were quick and sure. Once he was finished
       with peeling everything, he started washing and expertly
       chopping the veggies up with finesse. His movements were sure
       and precise, not wasting any energy as he got the job done.
       He glanced up when he heard Trip say something about a necklace.
       Hidaeki's knife stilled as his eyes widened at the sight of the
       necklace in the other's hand. "It probably is," He said softly.
       While it didn't appear to be any sort of special necklace he
       knew that a lot of time magically enhanced jewelry often times
       appeared unremarkable to the eye. "Yes sir." He replied and went
       back to work mincing onions and garlic for the pan.

       Raphael glanced up when Trip walked into the office and his eyes
       lit up when they caught sight of the  necklace in the man's
       hands. "Yes! That's the necklace. Willow isn't really the type
       to wear really brilliant pieces, she's more into simple
       elegance." He said and moved to take the necklace from Trip's
       grasp. "I'm going to give a call to Guy and Willow and let them
       know the necklace was found. I'll be right back. I"m going to
       put this in a safe spot upstairs. If you find anything on the
       security tapes I need to see, let me know Rodrigo." He said
       moving to slip past Trip and made his way upstairs.
       "Sure thing Raph." Rodrigo replied in a gruff voice and glanced
       at Trip. "Figures the necklace would show up in the kitchen.
       Usually magical things show up in the last place you'd think to
       look." He commented and went back to his work.
       "Well...well..looks like we have someone sneaking around after
       hours. I bet Raphael and Guy will both want to see this." He
       said shaking his head a bit disappointed at who he had seen in
       the video. "Some people just don't ever give up on what will
       never happen. Kind of sad if you ask me." He said with a sigh.
       What was Evalynn thinking? How had she gotten so obsessed with
       Guy? It wasn't as if the man had ever encouraged it or treated
       her any differently than the other waitresses.
  HTML https://i.imgur.com/nyj3GMV.png
       Ayo couldn't help but grin seeing Victory brighten up at the
       idea of going clubbing. Her eyes couldn't help but settle on
       Victory's hips as she moved to the imagined sounds of club
       music. "I wonder if Guy would be up for us doing a club night
       here sometime soon. That would be fun right Asha? Or we could
       see if Raph would be up for it." She said with a speculative
       gleam in her eyes.
       "Oh don't worry Victory, we can teach you." She flirted back,
       not really minding being mixed up with her sister. "I'm Ayo, and
       that's Asha, Once you spend more time with us you'll be able to
       tell us apart. Plus we do have different tattoos." She added
       shooting a grin at Asha.

       Willow gave a harder blush."Sorry I wasn't thinking
       but...yeah...I would not mind being able to do more." she said
       giving a smile.
       she walked with guy hand in hand and fairly close. She could of
       sworn she could smell cologne on him....and she liked the smell.
       She blinked as they arrived at the door and saw him brush at it
       to see a door. As they arrived to the gardens her eyes took in
       the place..it looked so beautiful to her! She took in the bright
       colors of the flowers. "oh its so pretty! like out of a story
       book i've read before." Said willow in a bit of awe. She heard a
       voice of a woman that seemed to be full of energy to hear her
       speak raphaels name. She couldn't believe her eyes! She looked
       so young to be a grandmother! She watched how she launched
       herself in her grandson's arms and went a bit shy. She almost
       shrunk a bit at the sight of the eager look almost as if she
       knew they were already together.
       She let off a soft breath and blinked to give a sweet smile.
       "Nice to meet you Meranna, " she said to play with her skirt a
       bit. "Your garden is quite lovely!..." she complimented unsure
       of what else to say.

       Trip nodded to see him take the necklace."Yeah...no problem, "
       he said to follow Raphael out with him."Ah I was meaning to
       ask...do you think we could hire another waitress or some job
       opening?...I mean we have been fairly shorthanded, and eve going
       yeah we would need another. And since the relationship rule is
       out of the door..my girl does need the work." He said as he
       stopped a bit to where the direction of the kitchen would be.

       Asha gave a grin."mmhmm and we can totally show some
       moves...though Ayo is the better dancer." She said to chuckle a
       bit at her sister. Victory gave a slight blush a bit. She had
       been crushing on them both for months..but it was hard at times
       to tell the difference for her. Given they seem to be similar in
       behavior and personality...Granted there were minor
       differences...Ayo seemed more temperamental when things didn't
       go her way while Asha was like a volcano when things went wrong.
       On the flip side, Asha was a very flirty person, while Ayo
       seemed to be the one to use physical cues to flirt and get close
       to touching at times. She wrapped her hair around her ear.
       "mmmhmm we do, in a place no one sees." Asha flashed back at her
       sister to chuckle a bit more. She loved working like this with
       her twin. It made life fun and flirting all the much more fun to
       do. She went back to make sure the chairs were down and napkin
       dispensers were filled.

       Guy thought Willow looked all the more beautiful with her cheeks
       cherry red as she blushed whens he apologized to him and
       admitted that she would like to do more. "Then we will, Willow."
       He told her with a smile. It had been far too long since he'd
       been with anyone, and he couldn't help but feel immensley drawn
       to Willow. She was a gorgeous woman, her duo tone eyes and those
       plush lips had been enticing to him since the day they had met.
       He wasn't going to admit it, but her holding his hand and
       walking closely had his body go hard yet again. He was pretty
       sure his pheremones were going a bit crazy from her nearness,
       and wondered if she was picking up on them or not. Sometimes it
       took longer for some fae born to gain the heightened senses.
       Most humans..well suffice to say it didn't take long for them to
       get affected by them. Often times it was like they got addicted
       to it.
       "It is beautiful here, Some of my best memories were made
       growing up here," Guy said smiling at Willow after hearing the
       awe in her voice. He was rather glad that she loved it as much
       as he did. If he was going to share his life with someone, he
       hoped they appreciated the same things he did.
       He felt his own face flush at his grandmother's compliements and
       turned to see what Willo thought of his grandmother. He wasn't
       to surprised that she seemed a bit daunted by the over eager and
       colorful woman as Meranna examined her.
  HTML https://i.imgur.com/zfCKqZE.png
       "It's nice to meet you too Willow! I am so glad that you think
       so. WOuld you like a tour perhaps? I was headed to the house to
       get some tea, would you both like some?" She asked as she
       started walking towards the small cabin.
       "Thank you yes please," Guy replied and led Willow to the side
       yard where there were benches and a small table and they settled
       in to wait for Meranna's return.
       She was back shortly with a tray of tea, glasses and an
       assortment of home baked cookies. He raised an eyebrow at her
       only to make Meranna giggle at him. "Oh come now, you know I'm a
       born hostess. I can't help it." She served up the tea, and
       cookies and took a seat across from them.
       "So..I am of the mind that this wasn't a random visit. That you
       have some questions for me? Maybe something about Soulmates?"
       She asked pointedly.
       Guy's eyes widened at her hitting the nail on the head so
       quickly. "All right yes, we did have some questions for you.
       Willow has a few, but first, is it possible for someone to have
       more than one soulmate?"
       Meranna's eyes twinkled. "Does this have to do about Raphael
       perhaps? Is he back in town? You should bring him by the next
       time you come to visit me. IN answer to your question, Yes it is
       possible. You've heard of true mates among shifters right?
       Well..there is also such a thing as triumvates. Three souls that
       are linked together to make the individuals stronger than even
       true mates. It's usually a very rare thing. There have only been
       three others I've heard of in my long lifetime."
       She paused to take a long drink of her tea eyeing Guy and how he
       was taking the news.
       Guy was a bit stunned when his grandmother brought up Raphael in
       the next breath and then talk about triumvates and how they were
       a rarity. "Are you saying that..Raph, Willow and I are meant to
       be together?" He asked trying to wrap his head around that.
       Willow's comments about Raph came to mind and his eyebrows
       narrowed and he got a thoughtful look o his face.
       "Darling, what do you think? He's been waiting for you for years
       and has never tried to push you into anything, though he has
       loved you." Meranna said softly looking at Guy closely.
       Guy shifted slightly not sure what to say to that, and took
       Willow's hand in his own and squeezed it slightly. "I guess..I
       should talk to him..we should talk to him." He corrected not
       really sure what to say at the moment. He had known that Raphael
       had had a crush on him since they'd been teenagers but had
       thought it hadn't been anything that serious. He wasn't really
       sure how he should be feel to know the man was in love with him.
       "Good idea, now was there anything else you wanted to ask?"
       Meranna asked picking up a cookie and taking a small nibble out
       of it.
       "Oh..you don't mind if Willow and I have a picnic in your garden
       do you?" He asked remembering their original plan of having a
       date together. "It's our day off..and we wanted to do something
       romantic." Guy could feel his face get a bit hot at admitting
       it. "Raph volunteered to take over at the bar so I could take
       Willow on a date."
       "Of course not, in fact, if you go to the west garden you will
       find a perfect romantic spot, and..there happens to be a sound
       proof barrier if you need it." She saind winking at him. "Is
       there nothing else either of you has questions about? Just
       checking before I make myself scarce."
       "Oh, I almost forgot. I found that book you have been looking
       for to complete your collection, happy birthday early Meranna,"
       Guy told her and used a spell to teleport the book from his car
       and into his hand and held it out to her.
       Meranna's eyes widened with excitement and she took the wrapped
       book and gingerly unwrapped it and looked it over. "Thank you
       Malimar, you are the most thoughtful and loving grandson I have.
       Also you are my favorite," she proclaimed and leaned in to kiss
       Guy affectionately on the cheek.
       Guy's face flushed and he rolled his eyes. "I'm your only
       grandson. The others are all girls and a dramatic bunch." He
       muttered but made no move to wipe off the lipstick mark on his
       face.

       Raphael heard Trip speaking behind him and turned to look over
       his shoulder and gave the man his attention. "We could
       definitely use another waitress. Give your girlfriend a call, if
       she can come in today I can interview her today if that works
       for her. If not I'll talk to Guy about it. I am sure that he
       will need to replace Evalynn asap. Not sure why he hired her in
       the first place...I always knew there was something off about
       her." He murmured more to himself than to Trip.
       "Hey Hidaeki, your sister is off today right?" He asked moving
       to peer into the kitchen where the teen was now working on
       cleaning up the dishes he had used.
       The kitsune glanced up, his eyes flashing a bit at being
       startled. "Uh..she's got off here, but is working her other job,
       so..not really a day off." He said not sure why Raphael was
       asking him.
       "Ah okay. Well thanks. Yeah..we'll be needing at least one more
       waitress," He said though he looked a bit troubled by something.
       "Maybe have her call or come in during a slow hour today so I
       can interview her."
       That being said, Raphael made his way past Trip and to the loft
       entrance and went upstairs to hide the necklace in Guy's
       upstairs safe and added a few protective spells as well. Once he
       wa sure it would be safe he went back downstairs and caught
       sight of the clock. "Ten minutes til we open people!" He
       announced.
  HTML https://i.imgur.com/nyj3GMV.png
       Ayo couldn't help but grin herself when Asha mentioned that she
       was the better dancer. "Don't let my sister fool you, she's got
       some good moves herself." She said winking at Victory, admiring
       the blush on the sexy woman's cheeks.
       She had noticed that the bartender had been shooting her sister
       and her glances for the past few months when Victory thought
       they weren't watching her. It was sexy as hell to Ayo. She had
       the feeling that it wasn't going to take too much to convince
       the woman to go out and party with them when they all managed to
       get a day off. Of course..that meant they'd need a new waitress
       for that to happen.
       "do you know how sexy you look doing that?" She asked leaning in
       closer to Victory as the woman wound her hair around her ear.
       "Of course I think you're damn sexy with every move you make,"
       SHe flirted shamelessly.
       She straightened up when she heard Raphael call out that the bar
       was opening in ten minutes and got back to working on getting
       everything set up for Victory. "If it gets too busy for you to
       keep up, I can lend a hand with pouring draft beers and getting
       stuff ready for you," She offered, knowing that the mixed drinks
       took an expert hand and would probably be keeping Victory plenty
       busy.
       "HEY RAPH!" She yelled to get his attention.
       "Yeah,,what do you want Ayo?" He asked moving towards the bar,
       his gorgeous blue eyes sweeping over the three women closely.
       "You need to hire a new waitress, especially since my sister and
       I both take our day off on the same day," She said pointedly.
       "Oh and what do you think of maybe doing a dance night here? Or
       bringing in a live band? Maybe you could talk to Guy about it?"
       Raphael chuckled and ran a hand oveve rhis short hair. "Well..I
       may be talking to someone soon about the job so don't worry
       about that. If Guy needs an extra hand, I can stay around and
       help with whatever needs to be done in the bar. I've can be a
       waitress if need be. You should suggest them to him yourself, I
       bet he'd love to hear ideas you have about increasing
       patronage."
       Ayo couldn't help but grin happily. "Awesome, I am surprised Guy
       didn't bring you in sooner. You seem to be a jack of all trades
       and very handy to have around. Maybe you can pencil me in for a
       meeting with him when he's free next week? I should just talk to
       him myself. Who knows, maybe I could get paid extra as a talent
       scout or something,"

       Willow couldn't help but feel a bit drawn to the man.She
       couldn't help but wonder if the closeness was making him feel
       like he did in the car but...She just wanted to be close. She
       turned a bit to smile. "it must of been fun to grow in the
       garden.." she said to blink a bit as she heard his grandmother
       "oh thank you I don't mind a bit of tea." she said and walked
       with the man feeling suddenly a bit shy. She blinked as she
       looked about the woman's home when she came out with the tea and
       cookies to nibble a bit. She looked up as she mentioned
       soulmates and blushed a bit. The moment she mentioned raphael
       she tried to not fidget a bit but, with how the man was and the
       teasing...it felt hard to not fall for the guy. His general kind
       behavior and confidence made him so...appealing. The more that
       was said the more willow was wondering what was really on Guy's
       mind...he seemed suprised...and unlike Eva was more aware of guy
       and his feelings.
       Willow blinked."We should talk to him, I mean...with the fact of
       the news." she said blinking. Willow had drawn a blank on what
       she wanted to ask. "Well it seems the big question is sort of
       out of the way." She said to chuckle a bit. She gave a soft
       blink. "I think its wonderful that he has such a wonderful
       grandmother." she said with a smile.

       Trip gave a smile to nod and took his phone out as he walked
       down dialing the love of his life. This was a great opportunity
       and the watiresses were always tipped well. He gave a ring and
       waited on the phone. Once he heard her voice, said."Hey there my
       exotic beauty...thought I'd let you know the policy been lifted
       and well...they want another waitress Raph says to come in for
       an interview babe!Try coming when its not so busy." He said as
       he heard the 10 minute warning."I gotta go but I love you!" He
       said with a smile that most would not see....course when she was
       around..they would see a lighter and more easy going trip!

       Victory gave a blush as Asha flirted with her to smile softly to
       hear the warning and nodded."Thanks it'll help!" she said with a
       smile as she worked on making sure she had what she needed. She
       called for ayo to get a few new bottles, in which she nodded to
       wink as she walked by hearing them mentioning musicians. "Paid
       for extra? Better hope its that one band I like." she said
       blinking at her sister. While they are similar in a lot of
       ways...music tend to differ with some similar interests.

       Once the doors had opened it begun to flood in some patreons
       some familiar some not. Everyone was working to get things ready
       as Trip had gotten food started from the first few orders. His
       hair was back and was actually smiling for once as he was
       cooking and with Hideki had made things that much easier on
       him...thanks to it he was now thinking of letting him help in
       the kitchen more as they cooked.Carla who normally resided in
       the tree was always the first one to work and the last one to
       leave..well almost. Her red hair was a stark contrast to her
       skin as she worked. She smiled and with her around it was like
       the shifters, and wolves seemed more docile..the scent of nature
       coming from her seemed to have that affect. Her clear blue eyes
       looked about as she went to the kitchen to get an order her eyes
       Flickering but not seeing marcus to deflate a bit. She had been
       stealing glances at the human male, as she was fairly attracted
       to him. She sat down the order to let a breath out as she
       continued her work.

       Guy nodded at Willow and ran a hand through his hair. He was
       still not quite sure what to do about everything that Meranna
       had told him about having more than one soulmate. It was a lot
       to wrap his mind around.
       "Yeah, but after we have our date," He told her. There was
       something they were forgetting to ask Meranna, but whatever it
       was eluded him. He shot Willow a smile when she complimented
       Meranna.
       "Why thank you Willow. I will let you both go on your date. You
       will have to come back again for a visit," Meranna "And of
       course, bring Raph with you next time." SHe added with a wink
       before whisking the dishes and sweets away with her, leaving a
       trail of glitter in her wake.
       Guy stood up and lead Willow out of the side yard and opened one
       of the many gates and led her down a cobblestone walkway. He
       felt himself relaxing the further they went, surrounded by
       nature and the sound of the birds singing in the trees. "How
       about here?" He asked coming to a stop under a weeping willow
       tree.
       Using a bit of magic, he brought the basket of food to him and
       started to unpack everything and set it out. "I hope you're
       hungry," He said as he held his hand out to her to help her sit
       down on the checkered blanket.
       THough his stomach was grumbling a bit, he was hungry for more
       than just food. "Perhaps for dessert, we can do some more
       kissing," Guy said looking Willow over slowly. "or we could
       start now."

       Titania was working on cleaning up the apartment she shared with
       her boyfriend Trip when the specialized ringtone she had set to
       his number started playing on her phone. Remus meowed in
       irritation, his tail swinging in annoyance as he turned around
       on his pillow on the couch making her laugh and scratch his ears
       before she moved to answer the phone.
       "Hello there darling," Nia purred back. "That's great news. I
       will come by at 3ish, that's a slow hour. You have a good day at
       work. I'll see you later hot stuff, I love you too." She managed
       to get out before he had to hang up.
       "Oh boy, now I can make some extra money and spend more time
       with Trip. Well..I'd better finish cleaning and then get a
       shower in and find something conservative to wear. I don't think
       doing an interview in a moomoo is a good idea." Nia said looking
       down at her brightly colored moomoo wrap. "Don't you agree,
       Remus?" She asked her black cat.
       Remus let out a low meow and flicked his tail.
       "I thought as much." Nia said with an affectionate look and ran
       her hand down the cat's back slowly. "Just think, you'll get
       free reign of the house if I get this job."
       Remus' ears flicked up on the top of his head, his pupils
       narrowing on her face intently.
       "I thought you'd like that. Enjoy your nap Remy." Nia said
       kissing the cat's forehead and then moved to finish her
       cleaning.

       Ayo grinned at Asha's suggestion. "Oh, that band is one of the
       first one's I"m going to suggest." She said winking at her.
       "Among others of course. The more variety we have come in, the
       more patrons we could bring in."
       "What kind of music do you like Victory?" She asked glancing
       over at the woman. "Tell me later," she said as the door was
       opened and the lunch rush began. "It looks like we are going to
       be very busy for the next few hours, If you get swamped, yell
       for me and I'll come give you a hand," She said grabbing her
       notepad and pen and moved to start taking orders from her
       assigned tables.
  HTML https://i.imgur.com/DqmACQM.png
       "Yeah I'll pencil that in," Raphael told Ayo as he moved off to
       open the doors and greeted the patrons. Once everyone had been
       seated, he helped with taking orders and making sure everyone
       had everything they needed. He even went to the kitchen to check
       on Trip to see how well he was doing alone on the rush. "Looking
       good guys," He complimented after watching them effortlessly
       keeping up with the orders.
       Raphael gathered up his own orders when they were finished and
       took them out to the patrons. "Enjoy your burgers fellows, would
       you like a refill on your drinks?" He asked with a pleasant
       smile.
       The lunch rush slowed down and they managed to keep ahead of
       everything. "Now's a good time for a break," Raphael told the
       waitresses as he looked them over closely. The dryad Carla
       looked a bit out of breath and pale looking. "Carla if you need
       some time with your tree, you might go do that before the next
       rush. Take 20 minutes," He told her and moved to sit down at the
       bar to rest.

       Marcus let out a long sigh and pulled his long hair back into a
       rat tail before getting out of his truck and headed into Guy's
       bar to grab some lunch for the fire crew. It seemed even on his
       days off as a cook at the bar, he was still showing up. Then
       again..the burgers were highly addictive and Fire Chief Henry
       was always craving them.
       "Hey there Carla, ladies," He said greeting the waitresses and
       then blinked seeing a new face relaxing at the bar. Marcus
       looked the man over curiously, seeing an apron wrapped around
       the guy's waist made him think that this must be the friend that
       Guy had called in to help out at the Bar while the GM Tim was on
       vacation with his family.
       "Hello, I'm Marcus Harris, You must be..Raphael?" He asked
       offering his hand.
       "Ah yes, nice to meet you Marcus. Needing to order some food to
       go?" Raph asked after shaking the man's hand. "If you want to
       wait outside, I can bring it out to you." He offered with a
       grin.
       Marcus blinked. "Uh yes." He wasn't sure how the guy had picked
       up on his wanting to spend time with Carla but wasn't going to
       bring that up. He pulled out a written order and handed it over.
       "Just give that to Trip, I wrote it in shorthand so he will know
       what to make." He said.
       Raphael nodded. "Sure I"ll go take it back to him." He
       disappeared down the hall to the kitchen immediately.
       Marcus turned to look Carla over. "So..are you on break? Mind if
       I join you outside?" He asked in a low voice.

       Willow gave a soft breath as they walked about the place. It
       just felt so peaceful being the both of them as she watched two
       birds fly to smile. As they made it to the tree she blushed
       softly watching him perform the magic and took his hand to sit
       down. Course everything looked delicious and heard him speak to
       look at him. She got a shy look as she heard him ask about
       kissing and then went forward.”nothing wrong with working up an
       appetite..” she said with a smile and went in to feel his lips.
       Then man was certainly kissable and she just couldn’t help it..
       not to mention the open invitation helped her be a bit more
       confident.

       Carla blinked to hear Raphael and gave a smile.”thank you I
       will.” She said as she made her way past the other patrons and
       heard the deep voice to blush and turn a little to see the man
       she had been crushing on for some time. She nodded and
       smiled.”sure I don’t mind.” She said and walked outside with him
       and got near her tree to get to feeling better. Carla then
       smiled and looked at Marcus.”how was your day today?” She said
       as she leaned against her tree. The man just looked so handsome
       to her with his features and how fit he looked to her. She knew
       most wouldn’t be happy with her wanting to be with this man
       but.. she was willing to do what she could if it meant to
       attempt at being with him. She figured if she broke the ice
       enough.. just maybe she could ask him out other than hoping it
       would be the other way around.

       Trip smiled as he was working, he was happy to know his ebony
       queen would be coming by. He hummed till he saw Raphael and saw
       he order.”Ah Marcus, yeah I’ll get this done asap,” he said and
       looked at the writing and grumbled how Marcus  could of been a
       doctor with his handwriting before blinking and starting on the
       order.”hideaki can you get a few tomatoes and some onion out,
       then get ready to grill burgers.” He said as he got things
       prepped for other meals.

       Victory blushed a little as she watched the twins talk some
       about the band and was about to answer when the rush hit. She
       gave a small smile and nodded to wave and watch her go as the
       first few people hit the bar, a man came up and ordered a
       martini, and made it and then later a margarita. She brushed her
       hair from her eyes as things seemed to pick up. She smiled as
       she began to show off her skills tossing the mixer and bottles
       around as she went drawing in more people.
       Asha smiled hoping it was that one. She made her way to start
       orders and saw the vampires go make a small look before heading
       over and working to get their orders before moving on. It was
       hard to not be wary about what would be going on.

       Guy couldn't help but grin at Willow's reply and met her as she
       leaned in to kiss him. He couldn't help but let out a soft moan
       as their lips molded together and with a sweep of his hand moved
       the food out of their way. He pulled Willow into his arms and
       lap and began to feast on her mouth, as his hands ran down her
       body. God..she tasted so good and she felt even better in his
       arms. He slowly pulled away and  brushed some stray hairs out of
       her face. "God you taste really good." He murmured before going
       back in to kiss her once more.
       He let out a when his phone started to ring and it took him a
       few moments to work it out of his pocket. This of course ensured
       that he missed the call which had him sighing in frustration.
       "Fancy that..it was Raph," He commented,
       "One moment," He said and called the man back. "Hey..you
       called..what's up? How's the staff doing?" He asked.
       "Oh the staff's doing fine, just wanted to let you and Willow
       know the necklace turned up. Trip found it in the kitchen of all
       places. I put it upstairs in your safe and put up some
       protection spells to keep it safe. Having fun with Willow?"
       Raphael asked.
       "That's great, thanks for calling to let us  know. Your necklace
       turned up," He relayed to Willow. "Good idea. It will be hard
       for anyone to grab it from their with your protective spells.
       Yeah..we are having fun. There's something we want to talk with
       you about when we get back later. Thanks again for making me
       take a day off." Guy replied and smiled at Willow.
       "Well then stop talking to me and get back to Willow, I'll catch
       you two later. Don't do anything I wouldn't." Raph teased before
       he hung up.
       Guy chuckled and tossed his phone away. "Now then..where were
       we? I think..we could lose some clothes and get a better taste
       of one another," He murmured and slide his fingertips under the
       waist line of her shirt, and teased her bare skin gently. "we
       don't have to go all the way, but I could give you a very
       enjoyable experience if you want."  He said with a wink.

       Ayo was more than ready for a break once the lunch rush died
       off. She decided to wait until Carla came back from hers first
       and moved to help gather up dirty glasses from behind the bar
       and carried them back to the dishwasher. It took her a few trips
       before she was able to sit down for a few minutes rest at the
       bar.
       "So..Victory," she said letting the R roll on her tongue. "What
       is your favorite kind of music? And while we're at it, what do
       you like to do on your day off? Asha and I need some sort of
       idea of how to win you over," She said with a wink.

       Marcus couldn't help but light up at Carla's responding smile
       and grinned back. He moved to lean up against a large fir tree
       across from where Carla was and cocked his head to the side as
       he thought over what he'd gone through that day already. "It's
       been a pretty busy day so far. Had a few calls early on,
       thankfully there weren't many big fires to deal with, How about
       yours? Have you had a good day so far?" He asked turning to look
       at her, getting lost in her beautiful blue eyes.
       After listening to her talk for awhile he got up his courage to
       finally blurt out.
       "Carla..would you go out on a date with me?" His heart was
       pounding in his chest and his hands were sweating. He'd been
       crushing on her for months now and he wasn't sure how she would
       respond. He hoped she'd say yes.

       Hidaeki felt excited and happy to have been able to help out so
       much in the kitchen. His excitement dimmed a bit when Ayo..or
       was it Asha brought in stacks of dirty cups that needed to be
       washed. He'd have to tackle those soon. "yes Sir," He replied
       softly and nodded at Trip's order and moved to clean his hands
       and grabbed a clean board to start slicing tomatoes and onions
       for the burgers that had been ordered.
       "So..do you think maybe..it might be possible to be an intern
       under you? I know I would have to ask the boss..but I figured I
       should ask you first." He said blushing slightly at being so
       bold.

       Wearing a very form flattering blue dress and sparkling black
       flats, Titania entered the diner at five past three pm and
       glanced around the room. The bar looked clean and well kept,
       though even with the modern touches here and there..it needed a
       major update. She figured she could bring that up later with the
       owner. It was possible that he liked how it looked and liked the
       almost eclectic vibe.
       She spied the women and the man at the bar and made her way over
       to them. "Hello, I'm Titania, I'm here to See Raphael about the
       waitress job," She said with a bright smile. "I am guess that
       would be you," She said turning to Raphael and looked him over
       closely.
       With her gift, she could tell that the twins were werejaguars
       and the female behind the bar was a human..while the man was a
       wizard. His magical aura was magnificent and she could smell the
       magic wafting off of him. He was perhaps one of the most
       powerful wizard's she'd ever encountered in her life. Of course
       she wasn't going to let him know that. Even if she was a
       powerful witch; she wasn't going to give away just how much
       magic was at her fingertips.

       Raphael glanced up when the front door opened and his eyebrows
       shot up at the sashaying woman with the gem tone colored hair.
       THe contrast between her dark skin adn the bright hair was quite
       stunning. He couldn't help but smile when she introduced
       herself.
       "You would be correct, we can go into the office for the
       interview. There's a bit of paperwork for you to fill out, but I
       imagine you have experience in this field of work" He said
       standing up and motioned for her to follow him.
       It was at that moment when he saw a small form dart in from the
       back door and he stiffened. "Hold on, there's something I need
       to take care of. " He said, his eyes flashing. The unmistakeable
       stench of the troll met his nostrils and he was hurrying after
       the creature, knowing that it was undoubtedly after the necklace
       upstairs.
       He cursed under his breath as he took the stairs two at a time
       in an attempt to catch it. Of all the creatures Eva had chosen,
       it had to have been a troll. The creatures could get past
       magical means, as it didn't bother them like it did other fae
       creatures. At least.. most spells didn't. Raphael's were far
       stronger..and if the troll tried to breach it, the anti magic
       around him would trigger the spell and cause a massive
       explosion.
       "Stop!" He cried out and unleashed a zap of power at the troll
       trying to stun the troll.
       The troll let out a pained grunt at the zap of electricity and
       forced itself to keep moving, though it was spasming from the
       surge of power. Raphael was inches away from grabbing the troll
       back when the creature fell face first through the ward and
       triggered a massive explosion that blew him back and down the
       staircase. He fell hard, hitting every stair on the way down as
       the building and apartment above them exploded into a fiery
       inferno. Raphael's head hit hard against a step and he saw stars
       and blacked out from the pain into blissful oblivion.
