I leave my long hair and stop playing with it, simply letting it hang and fall in twists to my slim waist. I pick up my goblet again and take a little sip.

He was watching her like he was fascinated. He mostly like brunette ladies but Elizabeth was different. He was not in love with her of course but when she moves her hand or plays her hairs he could swear he sees sparkles around her. She was shining. He shook his head for a second to get back to normal. Umh, would you like to dance Elizabeth? I cant say im good at it but it seems theres nothing else to do here he added a cute smile.

Edward Craven wrote:: "Well I am sure that many men wish to make you theirs..."

I smile and take a fresh goblet and take a sip of the delicious wine.

"It is a compliment, my lady."

He smiled a charming smile, wishing he could simply hold her hand. Perhaps they may meet again another time and talk more with each other...

Nan was smiling while taking the last sip from her wine.She put the empty goblet to table. She raised her eyebrows slightly again "You saw just one man who's glancing at me and began to think that all men in the court desires me, did i understand you right, Lord Craven? Her lips curl up teasingly when she said his name.

I smile and nod, putting my goblet on the table again. I slip my hand into his, looking into his mysterious eyes. I do find him to be very attractive but I have been taught to always be aloof with men-never play the first move and always allow them to confess their affections first.

We walk into the middle of the floor as music starts again. I glance at Edward feeling reassured he is here. I then turn to Klaus and I smile, knowing I am an accomplished dancer. I curtsy as the dance begins

He smiles,"I am a mans man, my lady. I can understand any man for desiring you..."

I smile teasingly...

Nik and Elizabeth walked to dancefloor.They waited for music and then bowed each other.Nik saw the doubt on Elizabeth's eyes. It was normal, she was hesitating about Klaus. He was young,rich, handsome. Not easy to believe in. He tried to do his best and smiled warmly, they began to dance. His eyes were still looking for her sister but she was not here. He was getting angry about that. Where she was?!

I dance with him as her hands still lock with one another. I smile and giggle as we dance, enjoying myself more and more.

We change partners for some moments. I smile at the unknown gentleman and then return to Klaus. I smile and say warmly,"I believe you have spoke false truths-you are a good dancer..."

I laugh warmly and spin around, in time with the music.

Nan grinned and looked around the table new goblet of wine but couldnt find a full one. She looked at Edward crossing her arms on her chest and leaned her head softly to left. "Let me tell you something my lord" She began to play with her necklace on her chest. "A man; a king, a soldier, an artist.. no matter what he is. He always afraid of being different and alone.On the contrary a woman. When they think something, want something they always want..." She stopped and looked at his curious face. He was watching her like fascinated. "They always want women to think every man agrees with him. Cause he always was afraid of being rejected. He tries to based his interest to others'." She blinked and sighed deeply, stilll playing with her necklace. Waited for a moment but Edward didnt even blink. He looked like frozen. Nan bited her lip softly and smiled "Are you ok, lord Craven?"

Subject: Re: Masquerade ball Sat Nov 26, 2011 7:08 pm

I laugh,"I am well. I have no fear of being rejected or alone. I like to be alone sometime but as I am trying to say...I can understand a man wishing to have you by their side."

Nan nodded again, looking around.Now she couldnt see Charles around.She was feeling relaxed. "You mean you can understand why a man desires me ? She asked curiously and poked his arm softly and asked teasingly "Then tell me that reason my lord!"

"Appart from your obvious beauty...you are a good dancer,"I chuckle,"You are kind and pleasant to be around. Many things my lady..."

Charles!! I am well! And what of you?? I have returned from Buckingham as you can see! How was your travel to France?

"Charles smiled and took Anna's elbow softly. Then he brought her until windowside, far from crowd"

Ehm...I'll leave tomorrow, really. Rather you...how do you feel? I heard you were at Buckingham. Do you feel safer there than here at court?

"He asked, looking tenderly at her beautiful face"

Lowering my eyes, i speak softly.i have missed him. he makes me weak always

I do feel safe there....but I miss court. I .....miss you!

Looking up at him, smiling, I remember how much I love and desire him. it has been so long since we spoke

Nan listened him carefully. She was playing with her necklace again then she chuckled "Its all enough then? Beauty, kindness and being a good dancer? A man could desire a woman who has these abilities. Is it enough?" She said teasingly. "For me, i can even desire a man who is not handsome at all"

Nik was suprised by her sentence. He laughed for the first time tonight and shook his head meaning no No. I'm not a liar. If i really mean to lie to you my lady, you never find out the truth he winked at her cutely and kept on dancing. He held her waist while dancing We are just taking steps and turning around.Its not dancing. Believe me i have seen many passionate dances he whispered towards her ear and let her go, smiled.

I chuckle a little...

Subject: Re: Masquerade ball Sat Nov 26, 2011 7:51 pm

I felt butterflies in my stomach as he whispered in my ear. I blush again as the dance finishes-I curtsy an bow my head.

People clap and I join in as the dance ends and the music stops. More passionate dances? I have never danced passionately with anyone.

I try to remain aloof-I must make him put in the effort if he wants anything more than friendship...

"He smiled and hold her cheek with his hand"

I had to stay far from court, recently. But tomorrow I'll leave to France, you know. The King himself sent me there. Take care of our children...and of yourself...

"He added whispering, staring at her"

Nan knew that was a trick question.She grinned again teasingly and sighed deeply. She touched her necklace again before she answered " I might..." She stopped talking cause her necklace suddeny broke and dropped to ground. "Oh damn.." she said looking around and tried to see it but it was dark and she couldnt see it.She frowned a bit, looking at him. Her hand still on her chest

Subject: Re: Masquerade ball Sat Nov 26, 2011 8:07 pm

I chuckle, suddenly her necklace breaks. I kneel down and pick up some jewels that I can see. I then take her hand and put the jewels in them,"Perhaps I could replace it for you..."I say smiling.

I close my eyes as he touches my cheek. I smile as I sigh and whisper

Of course, Charles! I shall care for our children. Will you see me this eve?

Nan was watching him curiously if he could find it. About half a minute he stood up again and put the jewelry in her hand. She looked at it. It was looking still ok, just need to put together with its chain.She looked at his eyes curiously "Really? Can you fix it?" She asked with a shining eyes. "Its very a special necklace for me.It was my mothers." For a second her eyes moved to Charles and Anna.They were talking close. Very close. She sighed and looked back Edward again, smiling a bit.

Subject: Re: Masquerade ball Sat Nov 26, 2011 8:22 pm

I nod,"Of course I can-it would be an honour."

I take the jewels and slip them into a pocket on my waist coat. I then take her hand in mine, I gently press my lips against her hand and then look into her eyes,"I will leave now and mend it for you...if you will allow it, may I meet you tomorrow,"I pause trying to think of places she spoke of,"...in the maze and give you your necklace?"

Nik changed their partners and he was smiling wide while he was taking steps. He saw the excitement on her face and appeared behind her again suddenly. She was looking for him.He leaned to her ear and whispered smiling "Are you looking for someone, my l- Elizabeth? He sighed silently.

Subject: Re: Masquerade ball Sat Nov 26, 2011 8:28 pm

I turn round and feel his warm breath against my skin. I feel my skin tingle and turn round to see him, his eyes bore into mine. I smile and curtsy as the dance finishes.

We then walk away from the centre of the floor and to the table where we met.

She watched him carefully. When he took her hand and pressed his lips to it, she held her breath for a second and smiled sweetly. She waited his sentence to end.Then she nodded and answered with a soft voice In the maze, okay.. she said and waited him to let her hand go, with curious eyes.
