Lord Evans and Kalara eventually returned to the ballroom with her arm securely tucked in his. She stared up at him with a dreamy look on her face as he confidently walked forward with her on his arm.
Queen Mavely glanced over and noticed them reentering the party.
"I'm so sorry, please excuse us. My husband and I have something very important to attend to. It was so wonderful to meet you." She gave the group of nobles she and her husband were entertaining with an apologetic look as she wrapped her arm around his and led him over to the 'new' couple.
They were already headed towards the center of the room for another dance when they were intercepted by the King and Queen.
"Good evening. I don't believe we've met yet. You are?" King Mavely let out a low grunt of disapproval at the sight of a man being in such close proximity to his daughter.
Lord Evans bowed, "Good evening. I'm Lord Ixei Evans. It's a pleasure to meet you."
