If he wasn't careful, he would be thoroughly distracted and that would be terribly unlike him. "Thank you for showing me the way, my lady. It was truly a pleasure to meet you and be in your company for a short time. I hope you find a moment's peace in the gardens." He saluted to her before turning on his heel to walk into the party. He would need to wait until he went off to resume his job.<br/><br/>Things were off to a rough start, but thankfully the night was still young. Nikolai was the type that did not fail or like failing. He was good at what he did and it bothered him when he wasn't successful. Of course, he was only human so of course, there were times when things didn't work out due to his own error. But he was getting better. He was a lot better than he had been when he had first started off in the rogue life.<br/><br/>He waited until he had stayed an appropriate time before beginning to slink to the shadows to once again slip away from the party. Fortunately, he was not troubled as he entered the halls again. He would need to watch for the guards if he didn't want to get caught again.
