LOCATION: THE HOUSE, 12:48 AM FEAT: the king, @reapersking
Though, The House was typically very packed -- tonight marked a special occasion. One for the record books, which Isabelle had been carefully crafting ever since she learned of her king’s vastly, approaching birthday. Albeit, someone should have warned her (preferably Benjamin) that Killian hated birthday celebrations almost as much as he hated the people who gave him life to begin with. Sure, Isabelle was smart. And she knew a great amount of detail about Killian’s gruesome past but, there were still some things that she had yet to learn.
Like for instance, there was a darkness that surrounded this holiday more than any other. “Leave it,” Isabelle advised the caterers, who had just finished setting up and were now debating on where to put the cake. It was carved in the shape of a reaper and even had blood dripping from it’s scythe. It looked like something handcrafted, directly out of a tv show. Along with the cake, there was also dancers beside it, sporting Killian’s classic, two favorite colors; red and black.
Izzy herself, was dressed to the nines in honor of her late, spouse. Who, leave it to Killian, showed up hours late to his own birthday party. Izzy asked Ben to keep him busy for most of the day but not so busy, that he barely even showed up.
By the time he finally arrived though, Izzy managed to get the entire gang to quiet down long enough for her to greet him outside. So she could enter The House with him later and see the look of surprise amass across his gorgeous face when he saw all of his friends (or more like his employees).
“Mi amor,” His nickname rolled off her tongue with a salacious purr before she cupped the side of his face and lulled him into a peaceful kiss, one meant to still him, not rile him up. “I thought we agreed on 11?” Isabelle was talking to Benjamin now, who she noticed shortly after letting go of Killian. It was almost habit now to check him for blood. She could always tell judging by his ensemble what kind of day it was; good or bad. Although, tonight she couldn’t get a fair enough read and therefore she wasn’t sure what she was in store. Not a good sign, of course.
