Don't kill me! Please I beg you! I know I've been away an infinitely long time. But. I got the new chapter!

I own nothing. Which is sad. Cause I wanted a panda when I was little.
The party was well underway.
Glasses clinking, guests laughing and dancing, it was obvious everyone was enjoying it.
Except her.
She darted between conversations and exchanges, constantly glancing over her shoulder. She cursed under her breath for having attracted the one man she didn't want. She dodged a waiter and headed for lord Damien.
"Good evening Damien." She greeted him politely.
" Ah China! A good evening to you too! Why you look splendid my dear. I have to say you are quite the subject of talk recently."
She looked at him, one eyebrow raised.
"And why would that be?"
"Don't play fool with me my dear. One need to only glance at you and Mevolent to see what is going on"
She sighed and looked pointedly at him.
"Why me?"
He looked at her in shock.
"It's an honour to be his mistress!"
"If your a woman, you would see differently."
"Well I suppose you better get going then, if it's such a disaster. Your predator is approaching."
She looked over her shoulder and cursed, seeing Mevolent walking towards her.
"Well then I bid you goodnight sir." She smiled then hurried off.
Too late.
A hand grabbed her arm and pulled her to the owner of it.
"You are a very difficult woman to catch miss Sorrows." Mevolent remarked as he raised her hand to his lips.
"Not as hard as you are to lose your grace." She retorted back.
He smiled at her playfully.
"Do we really have to be so formal?"
She grinned at him.
"It's only for the lovely audience watching." He smirked. "True. I suppose since none of them knew about us before the rumours began, we must warm them up to the prospect." She grinned at him again.
"Aren't you a schemer?"
"Nay my lady, only very intelligent."
She snorted in a ladylike manner.
"I beg to differ."
He placed a kiss on her forehead. She sighed.
"You really shouldn't think you can get out of an argument by kissing at me."
He grinned that lopsided grin of his.
"Oh I don't think. I know."
! Please tell me what ship you want next!
