Hello Cousin

The yellow orbs of that were lighting up the stage now circled over the dancer, putting her in the spotlight. She rose above the fog and floated towards the audience with her hands and chest moving seductively. A tendril of fog twined around her and carried her further up to the level where Ileus and Anastasia were sitting. The tendril looked like a white serpent slithered around her body like a lover and brought her right next to Ileus. Shock flitted wildly through Anastasia's when the dancer lowered her body to touch Ileus. 

Stunned Anastasia looked at her, trying to see into her eyes through the veil. She could feel the dancer's eyes fixed on her. An unknown horror settled into her heart. Her heart pounded so fast that Ileus held her hand and placed it on his thigh as the shock that blasted through their bond overwhelmed his senses. He tried to comfort her mentally but it was of no avail. She opened her mouth as she tasted bile in her throat.
