Imagine a red and orange version of Elsa's dress that's what Serenity's costume looks like. This also takes place in the SLG comics.

Serenity's POV

"A vampire again?" I teased Michelle.

Tonight was Halloween and several months passed since the train incident involving the Tribunal of Light happened. The Tribunal of Light was now gone worldwide thanks to hard-working people. My asshole of a grandfather was sentenced to life in prison which was a suitable punishment for him.

Eden was bigger now and she was able to sit up on her own as well as starting to crawl. Eventually, she would be scaling the walls in her gargoyle form. To celebrate Halloween, David decided to host a Halloween party in the atrium and the Manhattan Clan was invited. The people of New York now accepted the gargoyles which was an added bonus.

"Hey sue me if I like vampires" Michelle countered with a grin. "You're dressed like a Fire Witch or something"

"Fire Sorceress" I corrected the phoenix shifter.

My costume consisted of a fiery red dress that had orange on the ends of it. Behind the dress was a gorgeous orange and yellow train with flames embroidered in the material. On my feet were orange flats and my hair was in a braid with fire-themed hair accessories.

"You look sexy" Hannah complimented as we made our way into the elevator.

Since this party was going to be large Eden was being looked after by my parents. The Queen's clan was having its own Halloween festivities and Eden would no doubt enjoy herself without being overstimulated since it was her first Halloween.

Upon arriving at the Eyrie we found a pouting Puck. He was annoyed Eden wasn't with me.

"Puck you can go see Eden," I told the fae. "Just don't snatch her from her grandparents too much"

That pleased the trickster and he disappeared in a cloud of magic.

"You know it's cute how devoted he is to Eden" Hannah added.

I chuckled.

"It is" I agreed. "By the way you make a good Xena"

Hannah blushed before I made my way up to where Goliath was perched. The sun made its descent and Goliath's stone form began to crack. When he broke free from his stone sleep he let out a pretty hot roar and the others woke up from below.

"Sleep well?" I asked my Beloved of Night.

"As always my love"

Goliath's eyes then widened when he saw what I was wearing. From below Brooklyn wolf whistled and Lex got excited.

"Ah, I see what's going on it's Halloween isn't it?"

"Yep and David's got a party going downstairs, remember he invited the clan?"

"Vaguely but I don't mind attending this party but first I want to spend some time with you my Warrior of Flame"

I blushed as the gargoyle circled me so he could get a better look at my costume.

"You look beautiful but I must confess I don't know what you are"

My Beloved of Night blushed in embarrassment.

"I'm a Fire Sorceress, and I'm glad you approve of my costume"

Goliath chuckled before drawing me into him.

"You look beautiful in anything my love but"

I shivered when his mouth got close to my ear.

"You look much better without your clothes my Warrior of Flame" he whispered.

This earned the gargoyle a smack on the arm. In return, Goliath gave me a mind-blowing kiss before he scooped me into his arms and he glided us down from the top tower. Inside we found that others and Fox looked pleased. Brooklyn was dressed in a Superman costume, Angela was Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. Broadway had a lion's mane which meant he was the lion from the same story.

Together all of us then went to attend the party and there were a lot of people present.

"A Fire Sorceress? You get creative every year sis"

Noah was dressed as Aladdin and Elisa was Jasmine.

"Where's Eden? I thought she would be here" Elisa inquired seeing her niece wasn't with us.

"Mom and Dad have her in the Halloween festivities at the Queen's clan territory" Noah explained. "Its kid friendly and highly recommended for an infant's first Halloween experience"

"Puck hopefully better not hog her too much" I growled.

Goliath chuckled before offering me his hand and soon the two of us were on the dance floor along with other couples. One of which was Brooklyn and Michelle.

"Goliath! Over here!"

My mate and I turned to see two women waving us over. I recognized one of them was Amy the defense attorney who represented my Beloved of Night when he was accused of that jewelry heist. Beside her was the judge who dismissed the charges. Amy was dressed as Joan of Arc and her colleague looked to be Guinevere from Medieval Legends.

"Amy good to see you again" Goliath greeted the lawyer with a smile. He then exchanged a polite greeting with the judge.

"Likewise! I'm so glad the Tribunal of Light is gone for good" She then looked at me. "This is Serenity right?"

"Yes ma'am" I confirmed. "I can't thank you two enough for being able to get Goliath acquitted"

"I'm glad we were able to, your other half is a kind individual and I am glad he and the rest of the Manhattan Clan will continue to keep our city safe"

"That means a lot to hear your honor, thank you"

I felt a little hot and I told Goliath I would be outside.

"What's up with you?" I demanded from my other half as I cooled off. My dragon half was on edge about something.

I am just uneasy I can't explain why she answered.

You probably just miss having Eden around since it's her first Halloween

Maybe

She then went quiet and her unease concerned me.

"Hello Little Ember"

I whirled around to see Thailog land on his feet.

See?! He's why I was on edge!

Goliath's clone sexually eyed me and immediately this earned him a snarl from me.

"Get away from my mate Thailog" Goliath hissed as he joined me. "You never learn do you?"

Thailog chuckled darkly.

"Then perhaps I can eliminate what stands in my way of having my Little Ember"

Time then seemed to stand still and the next thing I knew Thailog dug his clawed hand deep into Goliath's stomach.

Don't worry guys Goliath will be okay. Michelle has phoenix tears with her and they will heal Goliath's injury.
