Chapter 33: Bad Together

She was Elena Mueller.

Aubrey was so startled to see such a beauty that she forgot to speak.

"A new face. I haven't met you before." Came the melodic voice of the delicate beauty in front of Aubrey.

"I'm Aubrey. Aubrey Young. Rhyland's… A friend of Rhyland's."

Aubrey tried to take a few clumsy steps forward to introduce herself unaware that her unique scent slowly wafted across the room.

In a split second, Elena who had been several feet away from Aubrey now stood in front of her.

"Oh my gosh!" Aubrey exclaimed.

'What just happened?! Wasn't she standing over there a second ago?!'

Elena's hazy eyes gradually cleared. The tall pale faced beauty scanned Aubrey's face for a moment.

"A friend of my son's." Elena spoke. "You're human?"

Confused and bewildered, Aubrey responded.

"I'm sorry? Yes."
