Chapter 3 Dance and kiss
Catalina stopped in front of Vladislaus, and she reaches out her hand and put it on his. She smiles. He thinks that he was in dream. He can't believe that she would dance with him
"It's my pleasure to dance with you, Princess Sadorski"
Catalina just slightly lows down her hand and smile him back.
Then the music begins to play by the orchestra.
His left hand gently holds her right, the other of his puts around her waist, and she rests her left on his shoulder. They begin to dance. From the eyes of all the guests, they are the perfect matches of each other. Vladislaus is handsome and charming guy and Catalina is so beautiful and gorgeous lady.
"Pricess Catalina, you looks very beautiful" said Vladislaus
Catalina just keeps in silence and replies with her lovely smile only.
Yet Vladislaus doesn't want, the music finally comes to an end…..
"My lord, can you lead me to the balcony, I want to get some fresh air."
"Of course, my lady."
Catalina is walking towards the balcony in Vladislaus's arm. Outside, the moonbeam is shattering, wind is breezing. These two fairy tale characters start their conversion in the balcony.
"My dear Lord, you really are good dancer," said Catalina
"Princess Sadorski, it 's my pleasure that can dance with you."
"So may I know your name, my dance partner?"
"OH..How rude am I, Let me properly introduce myself, I am Count Vladislaus Dragulia Valerious."
"Count Valerious."
"Please, my lady, called me Vladislaus, I am not really comfortable in the Name of Count"
"Either do I, just call by my name, Catalina, not Princess nor lady, please."
"Catalina."
"Yes, Count….Vladislaus."
"See the sky is so clear, the moon is so bright, tonight is beautiful."
Actually in heart, Vladislaus really wants to say tonight is so beautiful and unforgettable because of you and only you, my dear Catalina.
"I can feel it, wind is so comfortable." Catalina closes her eyes and grins
Vladislaus just stands there still and admirably looks at his goddess Catalina.
The wind blowing, a scent of flower is coming from her. Not roses, but a smell of white jasmine.
"Vladislaus."
Vladislaus at that time, his heart just beating so hard, she calls his Name………… How lovely does it sound?
"Y…Yes."
"Can you find my soubrette, Lavinia for me, I would like get my cape, I feel a little bit cold" says Catalina.
"OH…is it better now, maybe we should go inside," Vladislaus just immediately takes off his cape and puts it around Catalina.
"Would you like to come to the library? There is a fireplace, I think I will get better there."
"It's my pleasure to be with your company"
"The library is on the second floor, the third door to your left"
"Here we are," Vladislaus gently opens the door for her, and he can see there are many pressmarks in this big library, similar size to his own one in the Valerious Manor.
"Make yourself at home" said Catalina
She just sits down on the chair near the fireplace and takes off the cape, and undoes her hair. Her hair just like waterfall is resting on her back.
Vladislaus really interests in the library, so he goes to pick up a book and reads.
"Are you usually reading here," asked Vladislaus
"…………." In return of a piece of silence.
"Catalina, did I say something wrong?"
"No…just…I…I can't…see…I can't see a thing since I was born"
Vladislaus is shocked, " I'm sorry, I don't…"
"You don't have to sorry, I was born to be like this. I believe that it is planned by God, so I see it as a gift, a gift that makes me feel more than seeing. Vision can lie, only feeling is true. "
"Catalina…."
"And I feel there is some kind of connection with you."
"So Do I"
"Vladislaus, can I touch your face, I want to know how do you look, so I could know you by my heart!"
Then Vladislaus sits close to Catalina, and holds her hand put on his face. Up close, Vladislaus even sees that she is real beauty, perfect. Catalina starts to move her hands to feel the contour of his face. When her hands caress his face, he feels that he is out of breath.
"Deep eye, high nose, thin lips…" She blushes.
Vladislaus cant' hold himself anymore, he leans forward and holds her waist. And give her a deep long kiss. Catalina is shocked by his action, but she doesn't resist it, and just goes along her own feeling for him. After times goes by, Vladislaus moves away from Catalina slowly, softly.
"I am sorry…. Catalina, I don't mean to."
"…Do you always treat the lady like that, Count," She still blushes
"NO! I want you to know that I have fallen in love with you at the first sight. You are the only woman I ever love. To me you are the star in the sky that will make the moon hide behind the cloud"
"You…" She blushes even more
There is a knock on the library door at that time. It is Lord Gabriel Van Helsing.
