"I certainly do not want to upset the ever so handsome Lord who invited me to this ravishing party. Though, I could see the Lady becoming quite insulted with you dancing beside the likes of me."

He chose not to answer with words, but with a grin which meant to say “Lady Mayfair can take more than that before feeling insulted” and lead her to the dance floor. Byron was moving smoothly; advanced four steps, retired the same, repeated the movement. He was always on Clarice’s right side and after they swapped partners, returning one in front of each other, they joined hands. This time he smiled widely at her and winked with confidence. That was the only time they actually touched one another, yet everyone was whispering on their account. Byron thought that controversy suited him and even liked the little scandal he started. After all, how often does one get the chance to have a little fun at these formal parties? As far as he was concerned, a good tavern would have been better. The dance was soon over and by the time everyone returned to their boring, petty conversations, the Lord offered his blonde guest a drink.

“I think it takes a great amount of confidence to attend my party in such a unique dress, Ms. Phaedra. Were you not so young, it would have been a terrible mistake from your part, but I believe it suits you well.”

Byron was a straightforward man and some even dared to judge him as ill-mannered because of his brutal honesty. Nonetheless, this was exactly the kind of attitude which made almost any kind of lady fall for him. The noble wives were so sick and tired of their husband’s unnatural conduct and almost feminine gestures, that they became grateful for every little thing that was remotely different. A brief touch on their arm at the right moment and they threw themselves at his feet as soon as they had the chance. And Lord Byron made sure he offered that chance as often as possible.

It took him a lot of time and effort to learn that most of the women from high society had a twisted inclination towards vulgarity. They did not behave as such of course, but they were more than willingly to accept it from others; With one hand he shyly showed them Jupiter on the night sky while with the other he caressed their neckline and they always felt grateful for that instead of slapping him in the face. If he told any kind of naughty anecdotes in the presence of his friends, they were always eager to hear it from afar. It was that kind of subtle gestures that made him believe all women had the same desires as men did, just that they didn’t want to admit it. In most cases they weren’t allowed to. He was one of the few who would break that barrier and on this he prided himself greatly.

The only thing that kept Lord Byron from making an even greater spectacle out of him was the fact that Genevieve had been waiting for this celebration for a long time and he did not want it to end fast. A real scandal would have forced everyone to leave and not attend to any of their parties or invited them to one for at least a year. That lack of social activity wasn’t something he would enjoy and so he excused himself in front of Clarice and left towards the other end of the room with the strong confidence that they would meet again later.
While searching for his wife Byron came across Captain Fisher and he was surprised to see the man merely standing somewhere near the entrance examining the other guests. His analytical gaze intrigued him so he decided to greet him.
“Enjoying our party, Sir Fisher, or is there too much dancing and too little action?” he asked amused.
“I suppose you had enough of the President’s pirates by now” he continued referring to the French corsairs.
