Swiftly I was upon him, his chin gripped tight between my fingers.
"Do not think me any less dangerous to your person just because I'm in a dress and we dallied a bit. I expect every word that passes your lips in my presence to be respectful. Is that understood?" I was being irrational, Elton throwing me from my usual composure, but I didn't care. I would not tolerate both of them giving me lip.

I felt a spark of rage slip through my icy facade, but that was all; my features were cool and careless. At her comment of our 'dalliance' I almost gave a derisive laugh, but stopped myself short. She had NO idea.
"Noted, my lady," I said respectfully, though my eyes were burning through her in anger.

I could feel the rage leaking off of him, like palpable heat upon my skin. Good. I dropped my grip and strode from the room and outside to the waiting carriage. Useless things they were. I wanted to ride but of course that would be impossible with the obscene yardage of my skirts.
Inside my white wolf skin cloak was already draped across a seat. I pulled it around me and stared out the small window. Tonight was going to be pure torture, but I needed information and the 'love affair' between myself and Aleron cemented among the gossip mongers.

I climbed aboard behind her and sat at the seat directly across, watching her; she looked like a pouting, sullen child, all wrapped up in her fur and sulking. I was tempted to comment on her tantrum, but showing up at the fete with a cheek red from a slap would not be advisable.
"Is there anyone in particular to focus on this evening, Lady," I asked, so respectful it was almost mocking.

"No, just keep your eyes open." Oh yes, an evening of torture awaited.
