It was a long journey, but as far as the Czar felt, it was one that would end up being well worth his time. While Vikenti preferred the company of the fairer sex far more than he enjoyed even the idea of spending time with another Jack, he also knew that information was one of the greatest weapons that a man could have, especially when it came to politics. The size of his Warren had been too small for too long, and the Jack was hopeful that he could forge at least some kind of relationship... Something that would help him in the end. It helped that the Czar currently knew nothing of this man, beyond the fact that he went by "Leon". This meeting would provide him with far, far more information. If Vikenti had one thing, it was a lust for knowledge. And a lust for beautiful women. His golden lady had been unable to accompany him on this particuar venture, and he was already beginning to feel her absence. He assured himself that he wouldn't be gone for long, and that they would have a very, very lovely time when the trip was finished. When the Jack approached the door to the other man's Warren, he took great care to smooth out his expression to one with far less anger. The wrinkles of his forehead smoothed out ever so slightly, and his mouth shaped into a neutral expression. His tail twitched as he stared at the door, not exactly sure what to feel. How would the other's Warren be run? What would it look like? Vikenti had never felt this unsure, but something in the back of his mind told him that he had nothing at all to worry about. He had heard rumors, but only time would tell if they were true. One powerful fist raised and knocked firmly at the door.

[[THERE WOULD BE A PIC HERE IF MY INTERNET DIDN'T FAIL =DDD]]
Chelan was nearly asleep. She'd been attempting to doodle on a piece of paper and a pen she'd snatched, but she'd quickly come to the conclusion that paws weren't condusive to pens, period, and had meant to go find some paint to make a mess with.. but had gotten bored with the entire idea and flopped on her bed.
"There's someone at the door.." Vague shouts pierced through her haze of sleepiness, and she was awake within an instant. Strangers! They never got strangers!
"MINEMINEMINEMINE IT'S MINE DON'T ANSWER IT!" The doe shouted, already barreling through the household--was that a leveret she'd knocked over, or Eli? It was too small to be Leon..--and was at the doorway within a minute. The jossigy could have sworn she heard a distinctly male peel of laughter, but it was too high to be Leon. Stupid leverets. It wasn't her fault it wasn't.. precisely.. socially acceptable for a doe to answer the door, but it was hardly her fault, and besides! She was bored, so she would answer the door, and by the time Leon found out..
.. well the door would be answered, and it would be too late. Hah! Take that, logic!
The doe opened the door slowly and peeked out. Her jaw nearly dropped.
HELLO SEXY, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN.
She quickly opened the door further and stepped back to let him in, speechless for perhaps one of the few moments in her life (she talked in her sleep), but recovered quickly. Sorta. "Well. Then. Hi." Her speech wasn't stuttered, but had very dramatic pauses.
Chelan liked visitors. Chelan liked visitors. Especially hotsexyJack visitors. Oh shit, where was Leon? Staring at another Jack would not be a good idea if Leon was around.. but phew! Leon wasn't around. The doe managed a quick peripheral glance around the room and was very relieved that the two of them were still in the foyer, alone, though that would likely change in a minute.

Vikenti waited patiently by the door. He had sent the man - Leon, he supposed, or should he call him Remmington for now? Nicknames were so pointless - a letter detailing his planned arrival, and as always, he was on time. Impecably so. He could feel himself growing slightly restless as he waited at the door, his ears twitching in a motion that was barely perceptable under the weight of his heavy gold jewelry. If it took so long for the door to be answered in his Warren, Heike and the Jack would be having a very long talk.
He could hear a wild kind of scuffling inside, and found himself shifting away from the door as it opened, muscles shifting just so under shimmering white fur, and crimson eyes fell on the violet ones that were peeking out at him from inside. A Doe. There was a Doe at the door, welcoming him here, and she was beautiful. Vikenti's hopes for this visit were rising already, as strange as it was to be welcomed by one of the Jack's Does. He saw it as a sign of respect.
He could also feel his Need increasing as he looked her over. She was beautiful, and he found it difficult to take his eyes off of her. He wanted her already.
But that was rude, of course. She belonged to Leon. The Highland Jack turned his motion into a respectful bow, clearing his throat before speaking. The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, a sign of amusement. He could tell from the way that she moved that she thought he was quite good looking, and that only served to feed into his ego. "Greetings, my lady.[/b]" the man said, voice deep. "I am here to meet with the master of this warren, Remmington. I apologize if I've caught you by surprise.[/b]"

Chelan stared as he stared, not at all intimidated by his gaze, especially since it was as obvious as hers probably was--she had yet to reign herself back in. And why would she, when no one was watching?
The doe felt as though she would actually drool when he bowed to her, but was glad her mouth was shut. That might be embarrassing, and hard to explain on top of it. When he almost smiled at her she contained herself to raising an eyebrow, not about to admit just how tempted she was--well, other than what she'd been stupid and gave away already. She'd hardly been expecting a Jack to be behind the door.. though really she wasn't sure what she'd been expecting.
He began speaking, and she almost died..
.. of laughter. Lady? REALLY? The headband might have made her sexy, but she was hardly a lady with her hair in her face (like it usually was), her slopshed manners and general lack of convention. After a minute she remembered that he'd said something about meeting with Rem.. Leon! Leon, he meant Leon. She blinked dazedly and shook her head to clear it, then grinned mischeviously.
"LEEEEEOOOOONNN!" The doe shouted, at her normal, ear-piercing level, having not moved from where she'd stopped the door. "SOMEONE HERE FOR YOU, LEON!" The doe then shut her mouth, satisfied that someone had heard her (it would be hard not to) and would find Leon, if he hadn't.
She was really tempted to add "A damned hot someone!" to the end, just for this Jack, but decided she'd broken enough propriety for now just by staring so obviously. No need to push it just yet.

“Mon cheri, mon cheri, what is with all the noise?” Leon said with a chuckle as made his way down the hall to meet up with them. As soon as the door had been knocked on a Leveret had come to inform him, in his Study, that there was a visitor for him. “Greetings Sir, I hope that you have an easy journey.” He said giving the fellow Jack a small bow of his head in greeting. After he had greeted the male he rested a hand on top of his Doe’s head to show his possession for the Doe to the Jack, though Chel was sure to only take it as an affectionate touch. “Thank you, mon cheri, for greeting out guest so kindly.”Turning back to the Jack he gave him another bow of the head. “Come to my Study, we shall take care of some concerns before we all retire for the night,” He said with a smile, before turning to lead the way to the Study.

Vikenti couldn't help himself, and was only able to tear his eyes away from the strange green Doe when she called out for the master of the Warren. He had never seen eyes like hers, and he had never been one to hide his interest in something. She had a fire in her personality that he hadn't seen in some time - something that he wished his own Yasmine had more of. She had beauty enough for both of them, but... He couldn't help but feel that a little more fire would give her beauty that much more.
When the other Jack made his way down the hall, Vikenti watched the man closely. For the briefest of moments, a flash of displeasure made its way through golden eyes as he noticed the torn ear, but it was gone almost as quickly as it appeared replaced with a rather mild expression. He bowed slightly to the other man, but his eyes remained settled on the other Jack. He had never met the man, this... Leon, and it would do him no good to make assumptions.
"Greetings, sir. I thank you for the warm welcome.[/b]" the man said, his attention diverted from the Doe for the time being. "The journey was well enough, though quite long. I apologize for my late arrival.[/b]"
The Czar nodded, turning to glance at Chelan again, giving her the smallest of nods, the corners of his mouth twitching in amusement, before turning to follow Leon. "A reasonable plan, I think.[/b]" It was looking as though the man would gain at least something from the trip.

Chelan stared at him for another minute until she heard Leon coming, teasingly chiding her. She smiled up at him, not at all abashed to be caught yelling, and chirred a bit at his hand. She leaned into the touch and randomly tilted her head up and licked his hand. "You're welcome, my love."
The doe paused once they had finished tailking, and looked up at Leon. "Leon? Do you want Eli or I for tea tonight?" She inquired politely. Generally 'tea' meant 'spend the night', but tea was a more appropriately vague term for it. She waited for his answer and nodded in reply--it didn't matter to her either way--and skipped off as soon as it was apparent she was dismissed, with only the slightest of backward glances at this new Jack.

He paused on his way to the Study, turning to address her question. “Eli has not been feeling well so I promised her earlier that I would have tea with her tonight, mon cherie” He added wink just for her to help soften any blow she might have felt at not being the one of his choice for the night. He glanced at the fellow Jack before continuing on his way to the Study, Chel being dismissed.
Opening the door he motioned for the male to enter before him. He was quite proud of is Study, it being his get away when he did not feel like spending it with is fellow Jacks or his Does for whatever odd reason. Books lined all the walls, and his desk sat in the middle, an empty seat set before it with various other chairs lining here and there along the wall for when he just wished to read and not bother with his paperwork.
He quickly rang for a Leveret to come and serve them tea before he moved to take his own seat behind his desk. “I received you letter and I am more then honored that you would see it fit to pay me a visit.” He began, then continued, “So tell me, what exactly is it that I owe this honor to?” He was not really interested in going into all the details - that could be taken care of on the marrow - he was mostly concerned with knowing why exactly it was that the Jack was visiting his Burrow.

On her way to the door, Bianca had been knocked over by a very excited Doe. She let out a small "oof!" as she hit the corner between the floor and the wall with a thud. Brow furrowing and fur bristling slightly, she shook off and regained her composure. Fine, if she wanted to get the door, she could do it. She shuddered, and went to go inform Leon of their visitor then went to go make tea. There was always something calming about making tea. She was still fuming over the treatment in the hallway. She knew she was a Leveret and at the bottom of the pecking order, but honestly! She took the water off the boil for 30 seconds before pouring it into a black tea with apple cinnamon, as instructed to her by Leon. She smirked slightly as she saw her Jack and a very... intimidating other Jack go into his office. She went slowly enough to the door and waiting until the assumed they would just be sitting down to knock on the door. "Sir, I've brought your tea."

Vikenti knew quite well what was being discussed, but he waited in silence until they had finished. His face remained quite even, though he couldn't help but feel quite pleased inside. If this Remmington fellow was going to be spending his night with another Doe, a Nayeli, then perhaps... He wouldn't press the matter, as he had always found it to be rude to presume that he would be offered the use of a Doe for the night.
Besides, he much preferred to be surprised by such an offer than to expect it.
The other Jack had an impressive study, Vikenti thought as he looked around the room. He appreciated any library with that sort of collection. He wondered what the man thought about strategy books, and if he had any that he could possibly flip through before sleep. He settled into the chair, gaze returning to Leon. The wrinkles of his brow smoothed over slightly as he relaxed, feeling quite satisfied to be off the road once more. "I have long thought it was appropriate to make connections where I saw potential for connections to exist.[/b]" he smirked ever so slightly. "And you caught my eye. Your Warren has grown quite beautifully, and I thought that a meeting now could work out to both of our benefits at a later time.[/b]"
He glanced at the Leveret that entered the room. Well, she was quite a pretty little thing... He nodded at the tea. It was close enough to night that he felt he could safely have a glass.
