Arturo had to take a second glance at Rain as she asked him to dance with her. " Miss?" He had to asked in disbelief, she had never asked him to do something that personal and close before. Of course he had to do whatever she asked ( even if he had no knowledge of it ever happening) but she didn't ask him that often to do personal things for her. She had other servants for that, even then there was not a lot of servants around.
The statement rolled around in his mind for a while before he nodded bowing again " As you wish Miss Starling" he held his hand out as the band began to strike up a slow dance. Arturo hoped that he remembered how to dance he hadn't really danced much. He vaguely remembered dancing with his family but the memory was hazy, in fact it hurt to remember.
Yes, Dance with me.. she repeated before he took her hand leading her out onto the dance floor. She placed his arm around her waist realizing that he needed reminded. She giggled. Maybe I wiped too much of his memory... she thought as they began to sway with the slow ballad.
The woman in the emerald dress was hitting the highest notes with ease as she lulled them with her tale of love and loss. Other duos were heading to the dance floor now. The ballroom floor swirled with gorgeous gowns and sharp suits.
Rain's lips were numb from the drinks, making it hard to realize that she was beaming as they danced. She looked up at Arturo and melted her face into his shoulder. She breathed in his scent; the metallic smell of blood and the ruggedness of his cologne.
Do you like it here, Arturo? she blindly asked him.

She couldn't help but laugh as he dipped her, he was quite the dancer after all. Some men and women in the crowd laughed, others cringed in despite of the old fellow, saying he'd be my next victim. Although even Pippa wouldn't want to admit it, But she would never feed or hurt someone who couldn't protect themselves. As they swayed across the ballroom she hummed the sweet melody, the quirk in her lip never wandering.
He kept his back straight and followed through on every step, obedient as ever. He held Rain close to him, looking down at her as she spoke to him.
"Do you like it here, Arturo?"
" yes Miss, I really do. I'm very grateful to you for everything you've done for me. Taking me in, putting a roof over my head and clothes on my back. Not to mention giving me a job here protecting you, which I enjoy" he explained. "Do you feel I have slipped in my duties? I hope I haven't disappointed you in anyway. Apart from my dancing" Arturo added he smiled again spinning Rain around he brought her close to him again, dipping her down low burying his face into her shoulder purring softly. Bringing her back up straight he swayed with her again.
Dani was ready to go straight to the dance floor when Adam added,"I'm looking forward to joining you afterward." With those final words, Dani grabbed Clade by the hand and led him to the dance floor. Her pace was no hurried. It did not feel appropriate for the event.
While Dani was off with Clade, Adam decided to walk around a little more to see what he could figure out. Everyone there appeared to be of the upper class. Dani and Adam were considered upper-middle class. Not quite in the upper class, but not fully stuck in the middle either. Another thing Adam noticed was that the majority were vampires, sipping on blood wine. She said she would explain everything soon...

The vampire smirked viciously at any one who dare to utter her name in a wrongful tone. Her chin held up high and her shoulders leaned back, each step making her hips sway. You could tell she held herself in high praise. Pippa swept along the backrows of people in the ballroom. Hoping to find someone interesting to bump into.
