Severo was right. Once we returned to the party no one so much as gave us a second glance. It was if nothing had occurred. Severo's entire demeanor changed as well. He attended to my every whim. Knowing I didn't eat, he had a fresh plate sent to me. He introduced me as his lady to everyone we spoke to. He made sure my cup stayed filled and very seldom released my hand. I was back to feeling that princess high.
However I tried not to let my head swell. I wondered if this could be the nice guy speaking and the other man would return shortly. I dare say it kept me on edge. But every time he shot me that dashing smile or placed his hand on the small of my back to lead me around those feelings vanished. I even caught myself on occasion leaning into his touch or wrapping my arm's around his arm. Severo seemed to enjoy when I did that as well. His eye's would catch mine and a indescribable glimmer would twinkle in the depths of his dark orbs. Duiring these moments a electrifying current would warm my bones and in return I would inch that much closer to him. Secretly I wished the night would end so all his attention would be focused on me and I have to admit, I was interested in resuming our conversation.
Across the room I caught site of Lana and she and Tallon seemed to be rather cozy.
