Rena hid a knowing smile as she sipped her drink. The girl with the cat-lady on her lap had a retort. At least she knew. The man's accent was French. At least he wasn't lounging as if they all belonged to him. Rena didn't like the idea of anyone thinking they owned her.
She looked at the woman. "Nice to meet you Ilesha." Despite herself, she was curious. "Safe from what?" The drink was having an effect. Rena was relaxed and enjoying the atmosphere. Despite her...tastes, she did find that this place did in fact seem to work its way under her skin. Not for the woman dancing, nor for Ilesha. And so far, not Alexis. Not the high powered louts at the other tables, the men who ruled the world.
No, but maybe someone who worked the bar. Or served drinks. Someone without an agenda.
