The Voodoo Queen of Greater Moscow
#22
Xander put his coffee cup down and gave the girl a charming smile. Even Tobias was charming - Xander didn't know how to be anything else. Sure there were dicks he could play but why be a dick when he could be pleasant, so much more rewarding.

She stammered out an apology like she was the one staring at him. But this was the first time she'd actually glanced at him for more than a passing flick of her eyes. He did love the girls who were unconfident in their words, and their actions. So much easier to manipulate. Though this one still, was different.
The words gave him the impression of innocence but he saw darkness in her past. He didn't see images of her in any of it. She was a confusing mess and Xander had no idea why. "Something like that." Tobias answered cleanly with a smile. "I'm sorry for staring, but it's not so often I find a beauty like you sitting alone. There's something about you, I just can't figure out." Xander hadn't meant to say the last part outloud, but it had come as easily as the lie. Though it wasn't really a lie. Flirting and charm were natural, and she was a beautiful little thing, and the innocence was always a draw. But he was here for profit, not pleasure. And Xander rarely mixed the two together.
