Freak of nature

The limousine pulled up in front of a large building a door man wearing a red jacket and black trousers stood straight and stiff like a statue in front of it .

The driver walked around the car opening the limousine door for the two couples. Alex exited first surviving the surroundings .He watched as young mixed couples entered and excited the building. Everyone seemed to be relaxed and comfortable , seeing no danger in the area he offered Lexi his hand, She elegantly exited the car standing beside Alex waiting for Karmen and Jackson, the younger couple immediately followed them to the door of the restaurant, where the doorman in the black trousers bowed deeply greeting the two couples " Good evening Your Majesty and Princess Alexis, welcome to the Landing. He immediately turned to Jackson greeting him, good evening Princess Jackson it's good to see you again, shifting his gaze in Karmen's direction offering her a kind greeting .good evening Miss Boyett, welcome to The Landing. He held the door open for the two couples to walk forward a young woman met them inside the doorway, She crusty offering her assistance.

" please follow me to your table ", she guided them into a private area beside a large window overlooking a beautiful garden with a large bronze statue in the middle and seasonal flowers all in bloom.

She turned in Jackson's direction speaking to him " Prince Jackson it's nice to see you again. Dylan will be your waiter tonight he will be right with you."

Alex stood up, offering Lexi his hand speaking in Jackson's direction " I'm going to dance with my Queen order me a martini and Lexi a cosmopolitan"

When Alex and Lexi stepped out on the dance floor , everyone else stepped to the side to watch the human Princess dance with their vampire King .Everyone mumbled about how perfectly and effortlessly they danced together . And what a beautiful Queen she will be . The mixed couples in the room praised them with pride ,for their bravery and standing up for their rights .Feeling comfortable with this mixed couples crowd ,Alex held her close gliding and twirling her around the dance floor with ease. Meanwhile Jackson and karmen stayed behind to order their drinks. The waiter approached passing out menus speaking to Jackson

" Prince Jackson it's nice to see you again can I take your order?"

Being his casual laid back self he ordered everyone's drinks, when he ordered Karmen's tequila sunrise with a extra shot, she cleared her throat to gain his attention when he looked her way she politely ask him " uh..can I get two shots please."

Remembering what Alex told him about human girls not holding their liquor very well and his baby doll is tiny, she had already had two mixed drinks and two shots in the limousine on the way to the restaurant. He ask her " Babe are you sure," in response to his question she just nodded her head. When the waiter left and it was just the two of them, he pulled her closer listening to her heart beat, making sure she wasn't still afraid. He listened closely her heart beat steady with no hint of stress or fear. He leaned closer whispering in her ear for only the two of them to hear.

"Babe are you sure you will be fine, you have already had a lot to drink."

Waving her hand in the air, as she smiled sweetly instantly replying

"Of course I will be, are you afraid I'll get drunk "

Sounding concerned, with a slight worried expression he whispered

"No Babe, I just don't want you to get sick."

She didn't know how to explain it to him but she has always been a little different. She has even left Lexi and Ethan wondering how she knows things that other people don't.

She can drink like a vampire and dance like a professional her IQ is off the charts. The list of things that is different about her is almost endless, but she has never thought that much about them because she only had Lexi and Ethan to compare herself to.

With a little shrug she mummed

" I'm just a little freak of nature every thing about me is just a little different.I have a unusually high alcohol tolerance for some reason, I don't really know why."

"Babe your perfect to me."

Alex and Lexi stepped back into the cozy private area just as the waiter brought their drinks back, he settled the drinks down on the table in front of them, immediately taking a pad out of his pocket ask them

"Is everyone ready to order, Alex looked up from the menu asking Lexi

"Sweetheart do you need a few minutes "

Quickly glancing at the menu, before Karmen could stop her she blurted out

"No, I will have the beef nachos and a cola "

Karmen glared at her from across the table protesting , " I swear Lexi, with a big sigh she mumbled " at least it's beef , it will help build your red blood cells." Glancing at the menu she immediately ordered for herself

"I will have the blackened shrimp Caesar salad with lite Caesar dressing on the side and lemon water "

"Alex takes a glance at the menu deciding not to have his usual, folding the menu over handing it to the waiter he promptly ordered "I will have the prime rib with another extra dry martini."

Jackson quickly folded his menu over not even glancing at it saying "I will have the same "

The waiter politely asked "will that be all "

Alex spoke up, "I would also like a bottle of champagne ."

Dismissing the waiter politely " that will be all."

The waiter turned, leaving the private dining area in a hasten fashion returning swiftly with the champagne ,eager to get the enormous tip he will receive from just a few hours work.

Jackson takes Karmen by the hand leading her to the dance floor, no one moved to the side or even blinked an eye, he had been here before and danced with a lot of women on that very same spot. That is until they started dancing, she flowed around so gracefully, not even the professional ballet dancer he had dated danced with such elegance and flare, everyone on the dance floor stood to the side gawking in fascination as the beautiful young lady twirled and turned flowed and glided out on the dance floor with the handsome vampire prince." He pulled her in for a dip just to praise her

" wow babe, your a hell of a dancer."

Flashing him a beautiful smile she ask

"will you do it all night."

With his devilish smile he immediately shot back

"I can be persuaded "

He twirled her around with her back against his chest speaking low next to her ear he added

" in the bedroom."

Throwing her head back on his chest , she winked at him sounding amused

"Take me home honey,"

He spins her away from him just to bring her back, speaking in a low tone

"Oh, my wife is such a flirt tonight."

He held on to her hand as she twirled underneath his arm she glided backwards he pulled her up close into his arms . She seductively slide her hand down his chest, talking sweetly .

"You can't call me that yet "

Just as the song ended he dipped her low,

Stating

"I don't see what difference a few hours makes."
