He looked down and back up,"I would never dare too." He did a small bow as he kissed her hand, Just then the music changed. It became a more classical piece rather than the jazz.
"Hm this couldn't have been better timing." He presented himself and held his hands waiting for Clara to take his.
"take a step to your left that way we step between each other. Now step back." With that Zhoralel lead the two to dance. " "1,2,3 1,2,3" Zhoralel said guiding Clara till she got the timing down.
"You are wonderful at this are you sure you haven't practice." He said as the two glided around the dance floor.

Clara just kept smiling as Zhoralel kept teaching her and then she looked up at him. "Who said I didn't practice? It's been more than 300 years for me... I think I could handle something like this..." And with both of them in motion, they slowly let the music carry their feet on the dancefloor like magic. And with slow turn around and into Zhoralel's arms, they ended in a graceful dip pose.

"300 years to practice? hm I could have sworn you didn't look a day over 23." Zhoralel spoke, he was truly surprised by the grace Clara possessed.
"I see someone has used her time wisely. Perhaps i should have told you I couldn't dance." He bowed again to Clara.

Clara smiled, "Well, even if that was the truth, that would be a lie to at the same time..." She and Zhoralel slowly walked away from the dance floor together (still not sure if Allec was still dancing though), "because you were absolutely amazing out there..." Then after that, Clara took two glasses of wine, since their old ones have probably been taken already, and gave the other one to Zhoralel. "Cheers for a wonderful night so far?"

They tapped glasses and drank. "I wonder how Allec's date is going, I hope the ladies aren't to rough with him." he looked around to see if Allec was still in one piece.

Clara laughed a little. "For sure he is. He's a hunter after," all and she also looked at the same direction Zhoralel looked. "And may I ask? Are you planning to stay?"

More than 10 girls as Allec to dance and most of them are rich. poor, and average that Allec had no choice but to dance with them one at a time. After the dance Allec felt exhausted that he went to the Balcony to get some fresh air. But Sheila came in that he is next to Allec. SHeila asked "Are you enjoying the party Hunter?" She was expected from an answer from him that he replied" Well I kinda enjoy and I feel exhausted that 10 girls asked me for a dance and Im here to take some fresh air." the wind blown that cool Allec. Sheila look at the Dark sky "Its a good thing father chose you to the job. Because we monsters cant go out to your city that we stayed here just like our ancestor did." Allec look at her and he felt interested on what she say " So about your ancestor? Care to tell me about it?" Sheila look at him with a happy face that she started talking about the history but suddenly her older brother came to greet her a birthday.

As Allec look at him that his eyes quickly look at the pendant his wearing that he was reminded of the past. "Happy Birthday shiela" his brother gave her a hug as Sheila Hug back. "I see this the Hunter that father talk about right?" sheila replied " Yes and this Hunter also killed Jack the Ripper and his named is Allec Onstone." His brother gave him a smile and offered him a handshake "Its nice to meet you Hunter, I'm Elliot Mcton, Sheila's older brother. Id say you having good time with my sister here and please just continue on." After the handshake he turned around and left. Allec thoughts in his mind that he wear the pendant during that incident. "Sheila is nice talking to you and will you excuse I need to go somewhere else." Allec grab something on his pocket and gave to Sheila on her hand " Consider this as my gift to you and be sure to cherish just like I do. Also happy birthday." Allec immediately walk as fast he can and he gave sheila a cross necklace.

He went to the bathroom and wash his face and calmed himself down. "I dont know what I see...but I believe that is the same pendant that I saw during that incident." After that he wipe his face with the towel and went out on the bathroom.

"Yes, unless things get ugly then ill get all of us out of here." He said."Where is Allec i dont see him anywhere. Just then the Werewolf whose party they were at came up to Zhoralel and asked for a dance with Zhoralel. Before he could decline she had him by the arm and dragged him away.

Clara was surprised, but she just let it be. Besides, she didn't want to mess with a werewolf especially who's the celebrant and that. So she just stood there and watched the party as she continued drinking her wine. Then she slowly sat down at a vacant corner of the room waiting 'til her boys would finish having fun. "Hmmm... Men... So vulnerable sometimes..." Then she took a sip from her glass and asked for another.

After awhile, she caught sight of Allec. She stood up and with her speed, approached him, "So how was the dance? Had fun?"

" You know Im not that kind of good. " He shrugged a little and he was sweating real hard that he cant even breath properly. " I guess...monster are ain't bad after and I would try my best to trust them, especially Mr. Vladimir.". Allec walk to a bar stand and order the best wine they had and he start drinking. He was thinking something about that Elliot guy and he felt somethin strange about him.

Clara still followed and wondered if she should she ask what's in his mind or should she just leave him alone. But in the back of her mind, she felt that she really had to tell him sooner or later about what happened. So she approached him saying, "Hey," She sat beside him in the bar. "Do you want some company? Zhoralel is still on the dance floor."

Just then the sound of someone being slapped and glass breaking echoed through the room. In the middle of the dance floor Zhoralel stood in front of a crying Birthday girl. Her hand had slapped Zhoralel as she screamed,"Dont you know who I am! Don't you know what my father can do to a human like you." Zhoralel responded back to her but no one could hear it. She backed away in horror as Zhoralel made a small bow. The glass that shattered to the floor came back into Zhoralel's hand and he walked away. The music started playing as Zhoralel made his way back to his friends.

"Spoiled brat, thats all I'm going to say." he said when he walked up to Clara and Allec.

"Huh?" Clara was surprised to see Zhoralel back in such a rush. "What happened to you?"

"I defended you. Thats what happened, spoiled brat couldn't handle the truth." Zhoralel Got a new glass and drank it.

Clara didn't understand what Zhoralel meant. Defended her? What did he mean? What did she do wrong? "Huh? What are you talking about?"

"I'll tell you some other time." he said as Vladimir walked up. "I do hope that your contract with my cohort is still in agreement after this incident, Vladimir?" He stood there in silence. "Ill take your silence as a yes." Vladimir looked as if someone was controlling his body as he smiled and nodded.
"Excellent then, I do believe we are all in agreement here. thank you for the hospitality. Clara, Allec, before we outstay our welcome i believe it is time for us to leave." He finished with a bow. Vladimir's body struggeled as he too bowed.

Allec stare at his glass and replied " Well...to be honest those girls were beautiful...but sure why not and there is something you wanna asked." Allec heard that he watch as Zhoralel sit back next to me and he asked him a question . " What did you tell her? what truth ?" Allec was curious about it.

"Yeah," Clara nodded, wanting to know what Zhoralel said, but at the same time, she looked at Vladimir and wondered. Hmmm... weird... Didn't anyone noticed that he was acting a bit strangely?

" How would you say that?" As they walk out to the UnderCity Mansion, Allec felt something really strange on what Clara and Zhoralel thinking .

"So what happened was this, The birthday girl asked me to dance, I had little choice. She started by thanking me for her gift, I said 'you're welcome'. then she talked about herself I got bored and then,"Zhoralel paused,"She insulted Clara. I was not having that. So I told her that 'though it was her birthday it gave her no right to act like a spoiled brat'. Thats when she slapped me. Then she threatened me, then i talked. When i was done i bowed walked over to you guys. OH, that whole bit with Vlad, yeah that was me." Zhoralel had a grin when he finished.

"So yeah word of advice, Dont mess with me and do not, mess with my friends." Zhoralel looked at Clara and Allec, "So who's hungry?"
