Every movement in the heights mansion was pretty much hectic.
Lighting chandeliers,moving structures,filling in toxic incense.A maid servant holding a large jar tightly filled with an unknown liquid.
In another room was a masseur gently massaging the behind of an old man. His moves would definitely get him an award in his field.
Right in another room to the left,an older woman was seated on a cushion watching her daughter carefully who was seated in front of a mirror.
She was filling her eye crease with dark colors.
When she was done with that,she slashed her lips with a very dark red lipstick.
She stood up abruptly,turned to the woman watching her and said...
"How do I look Mother?"
With a satisfying smile,the woman who was her mother replied.
"Perfect pumpkin"You would definitely have the heart of all the males tonight" She continued now standing to her feet.
"Sit"her mother said and she politely sat from the chair she stood up from.
"Mother tonight's rituals will definitely take a toll on me right?"
"No my dear"her mother gently said swiftly combing through Layla's hair. "It will make you have a strong significance in Logan's life. Now he will have no choice than to accept you as his wife."
"Wife? You think I can be a perfect match for him?"
"Of course...the elders will give their approval if we bring up a proposal about your marriage"
Layla slightly giggled.
"Then,I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with Logan"
Her mother smiled.
Evening was approaching and the sun was leaving a deep orange shade under the clouds.
The urge to make the ritual successful and perfect tonight was spread across the mansion as the maids tried so much to make their work perfect.
The incense in the meeting room was getting stronger as time passes by.
At the round table,seventeen chairs were placed round it with different precious stones aligned on them signifying the position of the leader and the rest of the clan.
"Okay people, it's time!" Someone said and the cluster of people gathered together disengaged.
Dropping their flute's filled with sparking wine with the maids.
