Come now we jest you ..." </strong>as he rubbed a hand on her back and reached down a tapped her ass some . Pulling away it was more a loving brother like gesture .<br/><br/>Krandall watching her walk away only laughed more ..then moved after her ..trying to catch up before she made it to the ale . His arm reached down and pulled her to him ..stepping back as he began to move his feet in the pattern of the dance of the song currently playing .<strong> " you do look most lovely Bethonia ...it is not a bad thing ..we tease ..you know this . My Lady you are so much more than a hollow shell of wanton sex . " </strong>the man's eyes were jet black as he looked back at her as if he could see into the very soul of the woman. He was graceful ..moving in a manner to make it look as if she was the best dancer on the floor ... dipping her downward and offering kisses to her flesh at the chest . As no sooner had the soft lips of his touched her as he had pulled her up to continue the movements of the sway to the song. Others moved back out of their way as the Horseman guided the lovely archarian across the floor . Soon he would dance her back to where she had started and the Princess Evelyna and another had joined the group.<br/><br/>Carlito only watched shaking his head ... tossing his hands up in the air and then accepting a drink from another .. as he nodded the acceptance.<br/><br/><hr/><br/><br/>Evelyna smiled ...concubine ...now that was an interesting proposal ...but would Carlito agree to such a thing . As others took her away with a glance back at the woman called Phera ...she could only sigh ..damn these royal functions anyways . But duty was her life and she did the social greetings .. and mixed a bit only to round her way back over to the group again .<br/><br/>Carlito greeted Phera with a warm hug and tender kisses up her delicate neck drinking in her smell . As his arm wrapped her waist and drew her closer making it quite clear to all that this woman beside him was one that he was going to cherish. Turning to whisper in her ear<strong>.." Phera you are stunning ..beyond words ...my heart almost leaped out of my chest upon seeing you . I do hope Evelyna touched and kissed your lips as well . " </strong>as his eyes looked into hers then .<strong>" I am quite pleased with the choice of dress ..ask for anything and it will be given to you if in my power to give anyways...this I promise ."</strong>as he would then and only then release her ...as she seemed to be talking to Bethonia that had returned with Krandall the devil sure could dance.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">"If you do have an urge to be free of it but still feel in a social mood know that the princess and I may likely be doing the same after dancing tonight if you wish to talk to others while not being confined by such fabrics.. I am sure she wouldn't mind if another talked while watching while we manage affairs, perhaps she may even desire for you to join us ? Of that I am not certain for I don't yet know her well. Regardless if the idea suits your timing of schedules know I am delighted to meet you  ... Im Phera ... the ... herbalist" </blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><br/>Carlito smiled looking at Phera and then to Bethonia ...well now this was an interesting conversation as he pulled drinks off a tray held by the waiter ..passing them out to all in the group without a drink . Krandall looked over and smiled bowing his head to the Lady ...and Evelyna as she approached .<br/><br/>Evelyna moved right over to Krandall and stood before him<strong>.." Well do my eyes deceive me ...I assumed you would of slipped off to the forest by now ....Krandall ...where is my promised dance. "</strong>as she put her hands on her hips and stomped her foot . The man only shook his head ..and took her out onto the dance floor and began to dance the Princess about the floor. As she laughed out into the room and moved with him as if they had been dance partners for years.<br/><br/>Carlito shook his head<strong>.." I am still jealous ..Bethonia will be going out with the expedition ...Krandall .. Gunthur ...I wonder where Radella is keeping herself ...most likely in meditation . Anyways ...I suppose we should start this ceremony off with the draw of the one of the people to be chosen ...I do so wonder what lucky soul gets to join you all. " </strong>saying it more to the entire group .  As he was not the least bit jealous of sharing Phera with any and all she would choose to bring to the room for this evening activities even if she wanted to spend time alone with the company of women ...the man would give her anything she desired as long as she stayed by his side . He longed for that companionship all the way to the core of his being .<br/><br/>The music would soon stop ...and an announcement would be made for all to take their places ...opening up the middle . The royalty, selected guests and the chosen missionaries that were present would be escorted to the selected round table . Once quiet ...the Queen herself would enter ...and her form would be changing back and forth showing the images of the two women she was merged as one . A silence would fall amongst the room as she took her seat on the throne .
