Name:  Countess Mina<br/>Location: Ballroom<br/>Tagging: Markus<br/>Titus and Mina (http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_E_u21VRet_o/S-hMK0lYR3I/AAAAAAAAApU/iaWkszaUpds/s1600/JoanAllenPhoto_RedDress.jpg)<br/><div class="floatleft">(https://i.pinimg.com/736x/e6/28/fc/e628fc54c2bd126af7edf8c4adac66c3.jpg)</div><hr/><br/>Mina was quite pleased as Markus moved them around the ballroom in the waltz, his steps sure and practiced he had obviously taken lessons and taken them to heart. She was always glad to have her hunches confirmed and she had known in her gut that he would be a good dancer. Allowing her body to sway closer than the true waltz form allowed the bodice of her red gown rubbing against his chest and then retreating with each step tantalizing his flesh with the soft feel of silk.<br/><br/>"I am honored you think so," Mina smiled at the compliment of the castle, she always tried to out do herself with each ball, never the same decor style twice she took it as a personal challenge to make each ball unique and breathtaking. Some people were never invited to another ball and she wished for the experience to be once in a lifetime and breathtaking. She laughed, a soft husky sound that still carried over the music and people talking with no effort of her own, "I decide on who is to be invited and send them all myself, dear one. So I shall be selfish and keep your accolades all to myself."<br/><br/>As they twirled around the dance floor Mina kept her eyes on the man she was dancing with, there would be times for her to scan the room after the dance was finished. When she was with a dancing partner she kept her whole interest focused on them to make them feel the center of her world for that moment in time. Mina stroked a finger tip over the back of his neck and down his shoulder to his bicep.<br/><br/>"I have them every major, and some not so major, holiday," Mina said, keeping up with the time of the music with no thought. She enjoyed the masculine strength in Markus' arms and chest as he lead her about the ballroom in their dance, Mina had always admired the male form when it was obviously physically fit. Though she enjoyed the male form in many other ways as well, she very much enjoyed the way his muscles bunched and flexed under her hand and against her thighs and stomach as she brushed against him again during one of their turns.<br/><br/>"Have you been to a ball before?"<br/><br/>Name:  Hudson<br/>Location: Ballroom<br/>Tagging: Isobelle<br/><div class="floatright">(https://i.pinimg.com/736x/42/a3/5a/42a35abe713de6973b48c08310d19270--bearded-men-dont-care.jpg)</div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">costume</div><div class="spoiler_body">(https://i.pinimg.com/originals/2b/d0/d6/2bd0d682c42f9eab7a107e3e2f0cc518.jpg)</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">mask</div><div class="spoiler_body">(https://i.pinimg.com/736x/16/ac/e5/16ace5367f9e9629bae9f9fd0da47828--raven-mask-mask-ideas.jpg)</div></div><hr/><br/>Hudson would not be male if he did not appreciate the way the woman he had asked for a dance from spun and then gasped at him. Her beautiful wide eyes slowly sliding up to meet his own eyes she was even more lovely from the front as she was from the back. Hudson had kept his hand on her back as she spun and grinned as she stepped towards him and appeared to be in a slight daze for a moment. Standing a little straighter at her appraisal he nodded with a smile when she accepted his invitation.<br/><br/>Leading her out onto the dance floor he swept his eyes over her lovely form, the way her body moved under the clinging dress was seductive and caught his eyes more than once as she moved gracefully. She danced with the grace of someone who had done it before and he smiled as they moved about the floor with ease. His large hand slid low to her lower back, his hand spanning almost her entire back. She felt weightless in his arms and Hudson enjoyed moving her about the floor as the music played. Her skin was so soft and her delightful scent made his eye lids lower slightly in pleasure. He was glad he had snatched her up for a dance before someone else had, she was exquisite.<br/><br/>As she trailed the backs of her fingers over his bearded jaw and then played at his lower lip Hudson opened his mouth and licked her finger tip with a soft growl. He pulled her closer than was strictly necessary for their dance and bent a little so she did not have to strain to reach his face. "Apparently the Countess liked my beard," Hudson said his eyes laughing as he spun her out and then back in to hold her close against his chest while they moved about the dance floor. "And your lovely self?"<br/><br/><br/>
