The next morning, Elizabeth have woken up, she was in the living room when Magnus suddenly appeared in front of her
"Are you ready for tonight?" Magnus asked, a hint of excitement in his voice
"I'm not fond of parties. I think I won't go" Magnus face twitched
"What are you talking about? The party will be held here. So, I suggest you wear your prettiest dress"
"I don't have a dress" Elizabeth said, plainly
"How can a girl don't have a dress? Ok, I'll ask my friend to give you something to wear for the party. I think you'll be able to fit her size" Magnus said while encircling her
"You don't even know my size"
"Hmmm…How can I not? I saw you only with a towel, remember?" Magnus brought it up, to tease her, and winked, leaving Elizabeth speechless.
"That CRAZY warlock!" Elizabeth finally said, cursing him for bringing the topic up, Magnus walked ahead, with a wide smile on his face.
Later in the evening, the guests started to arrive, the party was magnificent indeed, there were different colors of light that flashes, there different kind of drinks, and the guests were all dressed for the occasion, since it's a masquerade type of party, and everybody was wearing masks.
Magnus was talking to one of his guests, when he recognized someone in the crowd, he excused himself and greeted the guest
"My dear friend, Catarina. It's been a long time, I'm glad you came" taking her hand and he kissed it
"Its been a long time indeed. Its nice to see you again, Magnus. I see, you're still fond of throwing parties for the downworlders"
"oh yes, you know how I love socializing"
"And you asked for my help?"
"I'm asking for you to help my friend, she's upstairs with nothing to wear"
Before Catarina can reply, a guest grabbed Magnus attention away from her, Catarina went up the stairs, she arrived in the living room, and was greeted by a lady with long black hair, and stunning blue eyes, No wonder, Magnus is into this girl, she's got the looks
"Hello" Catarina said
"Hello, you must be Magnus' friend"
"Yeah, his been a friend of mine for quite some time. I'm Catarina Loss by the way"
"I'm Elizabeth Hart, but you can call me Liz"
"Okay, Liz. Can you stand for me for a second?"
Elizabeth stood up, Catarina encircled her, and then she pointed her hand at her, Elizabeth was soon engulfed with a blinding light.
Finally she opened her eyes, she found herself wearing a golden fitted gown with intricate design and the way the fabric flowed was elegant, the back of the dress was elegant, it shows her perfectly toned skin. If words could describe perfection, this would be it, she was a shining star.
"Now let's do something about your eyes and hair"
Elizabeth was still speechless, she found herself sitting in the chair, Catarina did her eyes and hair.
After a few minutes, "I think you're done"
Elizabeth stood up and faced the full body mirror, she was completely blown away, she looked totally different, "This is beautiful, thank you"
"The gown is beautiful, but I know you are too. Now, come on, Magnus must be wondering around, looking for you"
Elizabeth and Catarina was almost at the door,
"Wait, I almost forgot, what's a masquerade ball without a mask" and then she handed Elizabeth her mask, she wore it, and looked at Catarina
"That settles it, now let's go down" Catarina said
Magnus saw Catarina, he approached her
"So, where is she?"
"I'm not telling, but she told me she's thirsty. Probably grabbed a-"
Before Catarina could finish, Magnus went to look for Elizabeth
Magnus looked around, where the hell is she? And then, he finally saw someone quite familiar, but she looked totally different, he approached her
"I almost wasn't able to recognize you, Liz"
"Is that a compliment or what?"
Magnus encircled her, "I'll thank Catarina later"and then someone grabbed Magnus' arm. It was a man with curly blonde hair
"Magnus Bane"
"Long time no see, my dear friend!" Magnus exclaimed
The man noticed Elizabeth, and shouldered Magnus, "Who's this beautiful young lady?"
"Liz, this is my dear friend, Pierre Forte"
Pierre removed his mask, and proceeded to kiss her hand. Elizabeth was blank, she is staring at Pierre's face, she recognize his face, but she isn't sure
"Alex?" Elizabeth finally blurted out, Pierre was now staring at Elizabeth
"Elizabeth? Is that you?" Pierre said
Magnus was staring at them, completely not knowing what they are talking about, "Pierre, do you know her?" Pierre just nodded, "You didn't tell me that in the first place. How did you two know each other by the way?" Magnus asked,
Pierre hesitantly replied, "Elizabeth is my ex girlfriend"
