A demon

Mo grabbed her hood and drew it back revealing her narrow, but long face. Her black hair was drawn back in tight bun contrasting her pale grey skin. Her eyes were large and accented by a dark eyeliner, her lips were dark shade of black that matched her eye color. Her ears were shaped in similar to eleven ears with a series of gauges that extended the earlobes. She smiled at Alexis and took a seat on the other side of the love seat.

"So what are you a vampire or an elf? You have similar characteristics of the folklore of these," asked Alexis as she stared at Mo.

"No, good guess, but I'm actually classified as a demon."

"Interesting, I read in books demons always were described as more intimidating in nature...not so elegant and cute," Alexis hand covered her mouth as she couldn't believe she called Mo cute in such an non solicited matter.

"Trust me, get on my bad side and I can unleash that," her wide grin showcased sharp teeth sending Alexis to sit further back in her chair. "But I'm flattered you think I'm cute, us demons do get a bad rap to be hideous there are some of us who keep our looks after banishment." Mo ran a finger along her jaw line.

"What did you get banished from?"

"Well in my case, you could call me a fallen angel. I used to be on the high ground, but certain actions caused my wings to be clipped," Mo reached back at her back to the void where her wings were. Alexis shuffled a bit in her chair and pulled at her cardigan. "It is getting warmer, why not take off some layers you're looking awfully snug over there." Again the words of Mo cast over Alexis mind and she felt obliged to say yes.

"Yeah, I'm used to having to dress up for blizzard with how they keep the library and the museum below a temperature threshold for preservation. I have to ask, how long has this study been here?" Alexis unbutton the cardigan and as she slipped it off, she arched her back thrusting out her chest causing Mo's eyes to widen at the show. The black bra Alexis wore could be partially seen along with her caramel skin through the v-neck t-shirt. Mo slowly licked her lips at the tease and returned her face to normal as Alexis got her self free.

"Oh this room, since the construction of the original building. I've had the pleasure of being the sole resident of this since it's construction. The beholder at the time being had been granted my audience. They gave me this residence to practice what I was always forbidden from preaching. As you can see, I've had many years of experimenting and research. You're my first visitor in 100 years, it gets lonely in here, no one to satisfy your hunger, " Mo looked off into fire. "For 100 years, you get so caught up, your thirst becomes overwhelming and with being quarantine in this subsection of the building, no new beholders had the opportunity like yourself to grant me company." Mo stood up and began to toy with the various of bottles, beakers and vials on the wall.

"I can't imagine how solitude would feel like 100 years, how do you not go insane?" Mo tinkering turned into what look like a science project as she began to pour small bits of the various of samples into a chalice.

"Well my research kept me preoccupied, so my appetite was able to subdue for periods of time. Though sometimes, the lack of a taste really drove me up the wall," as she moved away from the wall, she turned around with the chalice of the mixture and a small smoke cloud could be seen inside the beaker "Could I offer you a drink?" She held out the the Chalice to Alexis who was taken back.
