As if on cue, the doors to the mansion opened up, revealing Elliot, and everyone's attention went towards her.

Contrary to every other woman in the room, she wore a perfectly tailored black suit. A belt was adorned around her waist as the suit jacket was opened in the front, revealing a laced up, strappy, bralette underneath. One that she wore as a shirt rather than an underneath piece like a so-called "modest" woman would. Adorning her feet were laced up black heels. Accompanying her black suited look, her brunette hair was straightened, she had winged, black, eyeliner, light colored eyeshadow, and pale pink lipstick on.

She looked absolutely stunning.

Men gawked at her, while most of the older women in the room looked at her with slight disgust because of the outfit she had chosen to wear. Other women, like Elena, stared at her with nothing but envy and jealousy, wondering how she could make such an outfit look so gorgeous.

Elliot paid no mind to the attention she had been given as a waiter passed by her and she grabbed a champagne glass from them and downed it in one go before she headed towards the bar.

And just like that, the conversations resumed.

The petite brunette ended up ordering a gin and tonic, light on the tonic and heavy on the gin. She flashed the bartender a smile when he gave her a questioning look. From then on, she began to watch the other people who were in attendance.

She always liked to be aware of her surroundings, so it became second nature to become a people watcher. Not in a creepy way, but more of a way that Hydra had taught her when she was sent on missions so she could identify the target and allies of the target.

She quickly zoned in to one conversation in particular that was taking place between Kol Mikaelsons, Damon Salvatore, and Mayor Lockwood. And surprisingly enough, the only one that Elliot liked out of the bunch was the Mikaelson that she had been newly acquainted with.

"Mayor Lockwood. We haven't formally met. Kol Mikaelson. I hope your lovely town embraces us just as much as we plan to embrace it." She heard Kol say to the Mayor, interrupting the conversation that had been taking place between Carol and Damon.

"What a charmer." Elliot murmured, quickly realizing that the vampire in question heard her as a slight grin broke out across his face.

"Damon Salvatore. Have we met yet?" Damon then introduced himself, holding his hand out for a handshake.

Kol stared at his hand with disinterest before he looked back up at the younger vampire. "I've met a lot of people and you don't particularly stand out." She heard Kol comment, making a grin of her own appear on her face, but she hid it behind the crystal glass of her drink.

"Oohhh. I like him. Can we keep him?" She then commented when Kol approached her, mimicking the words he had said to her earlier in the day, making him grin.
