However on seeing the three women framed in the doorway his cool demeanour gave way to an expression of black rage. For a mere instant the mask was torn away from his visage to reveal torment in its purest form. The blonde in the trio smiled broadly as Natheniel whirled away from her. Cate could see his hands tense and his nails bite into the tablecloth as he sat, heavily, back down. Then, as fast as it had appeared, the fury seemed to pass, though it left the gentleman's face drawn and ashen in its wake._____________Gabriel, Hellene, Mazz and ValentineThe harpies and Valentine all rose to give their ovation. As they did so, Valentine leant over to whisper something in Hellen's ear, and though Mazz was clapping as much as the others, his gaze remained fixed on the dancing couple as they came to a stop.As the noise passed, Hellene looked back to Gabriel, "Enchanting, dear, quite enchanting. I'm sure Valentine's soirees will be the talk of Elysium for some time yet, do you not think?" She kept her eyes on Gabriel's as she sat down again. Out of the corner of his eye, the Tremere could see Mazz stalking out of view. "You simply must meet Thomas when he arrives. I'll find you then; in the mean time, though, I fear we're making Aisling jealous with our dalliance. I'll inquire about that request of yours - I suspect we might know just the man."_____________Max and VychtoryaAs their slow dance came to its inevitable end, both of the pair felt attention focused on them from elsewhere in the room; distracted by the music and other concerns, only now did they realise the latest arrivals. Though Carrick, Morgan and Mazz  applauded the musicians, they kept their eyes on the pair._____________Aisling and NikolaiAisling remained seated to show her appreciation of the display, and whispered to Nikolai as she did so, "The latest guests to arrive are all Brujah; the blonde's Elizabeth Shaw. Next to her is Marlena and the girl with the scarf is Katherine Weise. They're ancillae by all accounts and though Shaw's the eldest of them, Marlena seems the most connected." She gave a glance over her glasses in the direction of the harpies, convened with Gabriel at their table. "They seem very interested in our cousin, don't they? Perhaps too interested. When Eugenio and Wainwright arrive, we should take some time together... Meanwhilst, would you mind awfully gathering our wayward friend and meeting me by the stage with him? I should finish up with Carter as soon as possible. Good work with Qadir."_____________</blockquote>
