To be honest, I was hardly sure whether or not I was actually invited to this event or whether it was simply presumed the only Hunter invited was that blonde fellow whom seemed to have all the personality of a wet sock. Don't get me wrong, I don't dislike Azrael all that much, I merely find him rather insufferably boring, the man so entirely distracted by his sense of duty to...whatever it is I suppose my race is supposed to be doing that he seems to fear actually smiling might cause his face to shatter and truly that would be a shame, it really is the only part of him that is actually redeemable. What? I can admit when other men are attractive, I'm entirely manly enough for that. It hardly means I'm attracted to him- I enjoy women far to much for that, more so, I can admit when I might have some decent competition in regards to looks, although really the poor fellow hardly knows how to use them, you'd think someone his age would. I shrugged the thought off for now, easily swinging off of my Harley. I would have preferred entirely to take the car tonight and yet considering it was still recovering in the burns unit of the local auto shop I was entirely more inclined to take the Nightrod tonight. One hand moved to run back through the golden brown of my hair, loosening all the strands, letting them fall back against the blue gold of my gaze before I simply moved to lean up against the outside of the building, taking half a moment to actually examine the interior.

This sort of event...this sort of thing, hell, once, it had been my entire life, every other weekend filled with engagement after engagement or business luncheon or party after party and a different woman every night. I loved it- every single minute of it. Why be the youngest person on the world rich list if you can't damn well enjoy it? Maybe I wasn't even a very good businessman when it came to keeping up with portfolios and meetings and mergers, but I took a business I never wanted, a business I inherited and turned millions into billions, I made that company everything it is today and maybe I hated to corporate side of it, maybe I hated board meetings and spent half of them through skype sitting at my kitchen table only dressed from the waste up begging to girl in my room wouldn't decide to make an appearance half way through and then hardly caring when she did- but truly there is something about being young and wealthy that is, let's say, attractive, a life style I relished every single part of until....this. Maybe I haven't accepted the Hunter title willingly, hell, I don't want to hurt anyone, I never did. Physical violence really isn't my style, in fact, it requires far to much effort- it's like jogging and honestly why anyone jogs for exercise when there are far more intimate and entertaining ways to keep fit I don't know. Kat never did let me in on that little secret. Either way, my lifestyle had taken rather a hit with my new found...species, whatever the hell it is about me now capable of clearing a room in mere moments. I've never seen a woman truly look at me with fear before- and I hate it. Then again- maybe it's just another challenge for my irresistible charm to work with.

I think I may have even managed a smile of sorts, lips pulling slightly upwards before hitting the 'send' button on my phone, inviting Kat to the event although whether she would actually decide to show up I hardly knew. Then again, I'm not nearly entirely foolish enough to actually invite her prior to it, let alone suggest we go together, after all, the dating thing never really did seem to suit either of us entirely well and giving whatever it is we have a label was entirely sure to see Kat running for the hills much like she did after our night together- not that I actually mind all that much, from a girl like her I'd almost come to expect it, willing enough to give her the time she needed to come to terms with it. I can be patient, when I need to be. I turned easily on my heel now, heading for the door, offering an easy grin to the waitress I passed, the girl fortunately human and clearly oblivious to whatever aura of danger I apparently gave off, blushing readily as she did before I simply moved to stride into the room, attempting to ignore anyone who actually moved to run away from me. The blue gold of my gaze moved momentarily to linger upon the cat boy and wolf girl I remembered from the night of the ally, frowning slightly at that memory and my rather destroyed car before moving to wander towards the bar. Like I said, fighting never was my thing although I still couldn't bring myself to feel entirely upset about having run her over.

I moved easily to lean back against the polished wood of the bar surface, suited form reclining easily, ray bans still in place despite it being dark and my being inside, this place a veritable death trap of distractions I truly did not want to deal with and really, glasses are almost like a mask. A drink arrived readily enough, attention returned towards the dancing couples, some of them, remarkably, weren't actually doing to badly and indeed rather a number of the women were decidedly...alluring, even if the one I actually wanted to see still hadn't made an appearance, my mind rapidly searching for something to amuse myself with in the meantime, gaze resting briefly on the emerald eyed man and blonde woman also seated at the bar, the fellow seeming rather determined to stare towards a red-headed vampire surrounded already by rather a number of men.

"You know, if you'd rather have her attention I might be inclined to help you, I have rather a...talent when it comes to getting women's attention, up to you of course, though your hardly going to win any prizes sitting here- just saying."

I simply offered a shrug, half expecting him to run away screaming, offering the blonde woman nearby a grin all the same. She was a rather lovely creature after all.
