West

The western part of the city is often home to the poorer residents. Here there is a grunginess that permeates the town from the graffiti on the once cleaned brick buildings to the broken and unmaintained architecture. Crime runs high within the western half of town, making it the home of supernatural gangs of illicit activities. Such activities are rarely reported, however, and most residents are distrustful of individual's of authorities, and often let the powerful supernatural beings sort things out amongst themselves. Be careful wandering the Western streets after the sun falls.

Tetradore led the way towards the peculiarly named bakery he'd chosen to take Alexis to, the man paused, glancing over his shoulder only at Alexis' inquiry over whether or not her boyfriend and Tetradore knew one another. The lie fell from his lips easily enough, the Alpha nothing if not well-practiced in the art of deceit. Oftentimes, however, it was simply misleading by omission - this was the first true lie he'd ever really told the girl and yet...this was not his place to invade. The Were-King could tell by the look upon Alexis' face that she hardly believed him. Her eyes seemed to narrow ever so slightly, her lips pursing in discontent though she didn't seem terribly inclined to press him on the matter. Truthfully, it was for the best. Tetradore was quick to brush the matter under the rug as he opened the door to the warm little cafe of sorts. It was oh so easy to distract the girl when the tantalizing scent of coffee and sweet treats so filled the air. It was enough to make even his mouth water with desire...and how the heat would feel nice against the rawness of his throat, the smoke alone still felt as if it was suffocating his lungs, even though Tetradore knew it was all in his head.

Softly he inhaled, reminding himself of that very fact before he turned his attention back towards the young woman beside him. She seemed to be doing far better now, Alexis near admitting to just as much before inquiring after himself. Her concern was largely brushed off, though it seemed his answer prompted a hint of...dissatisfaction within the girl. Tetradore's brow rose though he said little of his observation. Rather, the man turned his emerald irises towards the sign hanging on the back wall behind the bar, even though he knew well what he desired. He placed his order with a certainty that only came from frequenting the establishment, the Were-King oblivious of the inquisitive look he'd garnered from Alexis in the process. His own thoughts, after all, were focused instead upon the young woman's future as the two waited for their beverage. Tetradore glanced over towards Alexis as he offered something beyond her involvement in the fights and the frequent border patrol he knew she often did. A weak simper crossed his features at her wishes for the fighters to take better care of themselves, something that they both knew was rather futile with the rough and tumble crowd that frequented the Ark. Her inquiry, however, caused Tetradore's shoulders to shrug ever so slightly. "Well...some of the newer members could use a bit of help...adjusting to pack life. Henry spends most of his time in his room and...Harley would rather die then be in the same room with me. Carolina could use a little push to join us. So...maybe you could be like...the welcome party, I guess? I don't always have the time to spend with them as I should."
