The two detectives make their way outside Verve; the line is still long as they start to cross the street. Approaching them moving towards the club is a large entourage of men; well most of them look like men. Two of them are large furry like humanoids dressed in long trench coats with large bodies and large squat heads with ears that protrude outwards, and fangs jutting from their lower lips. They scan the streets, as they flank another individual that does not look just quite human. He has gray skin, and a deeply muscled body with a scar over his right eye, and short cropped blonde hair, and red eyes that seem to shimmer in the light and from his mouth jut out what look to be large teeth sticking upward. Hanging on this man’s arm is a young blonde woman, dressed in something approaching clothing, but very scant.
Dexter recognizes the gray-skinned man from some local news stories, a fierce gangster or at least someone tied to a new inner city gang called the Horde. He goes by the name of Erik Bloodrage. James does not recognize the fellow.
The entourage passes by the detectives without a look, as long as they don’t try to walk through them, and around them. The gray-skinned man, Erik, walks like an urban king smug in his apparent safety, and strength. The bouncers don’t even say anything as they just open the door and let them in.
