She followed him to the dance floor, his hand guiding hers, The guest of honor had her dance with her father first, as was customary, and then the Amyrlin and M'hael opened the floor. Now the band set up on a stage to the back wall, the ball began. Amore danced, her palm to Androus', him leading the movements of the pair; his style clean and fluid, making her grin as she glided. They transferred smoothly into a slower closer dance, one she was glad to hear. This would give them an opportunity to talk, and she had a few things to tell him. One hand in his, the other on his shoulder, his on her waist, they danced; the music swimming through the crowd. Amore saw a few women she knew, and a few she didn't. Men seemed to abound, drinking and enjoying the time off. In normal situations she would have stayed long enough to be polite, and then left, but tonight she couldn't picture anywhere else she'd rather be. "I have to tell you a few things that I think you should think over before you decide what your answer will be." Amore's voice was soft, not easy to overhear, but she leaned into him anyway, whispering into his shoulder. "I am Aes Sedai, that you know. I have been for a long time. I have had three previous Warders, and I loved each man for a different reason. I want you to understand, they may still hold pieces of my heart, it does not mean they own the whole thing. I find you to my liking, to a deeper degree than the friendship we have formed. I know these feelings to be natural, I do feel I should tell you something that no Aes Sedai has to tell anyone. I am over two hundred years old, and I do not grow younger. In your lifetime I will begin to gray, who knows when my time will be. I warn you because the bond could be horrid for you if such a thing happened. Although it would be unlikely, I feel you deserve to know. " Amore wasn't sure how he would take that, perhaps it would cost her the deal, but if she knew him like she hoped, he wouldn't mind to much. Amore listened as the song changed, a quicker livelier tune. They danced almost four dances before rejoining in another slow song. Edited by Amore, Feb 17 2009, 09:40 PM.
