"How many glasses have you had tonight that you already forgot?" He teased. He wasn't going to shame her. That's why they were here. For a good time. "No worries. That's why I am here. We were on our way to the next room. For some extra activities to bring this night up a notch. But if you want to duel, I think I could pull out that sword over there."
the homme's question hangs in the air as brown optics dart around the ballroom, taking in the lavish surroundings adorned with gilded mirrors and elaborate chandeliers. she takes a sip of her drink, casting a sidelong glance at her companion. 〝 oh, i'm almost sure we are, 〞 she drawls, her red lipstick accentuating the playful smirk on her face. 〝 though, i must confess, i don't remember what i agreed to. did i accidentally sign up for a duel, a dance or perhaps just a scandalous tête-à-tête in the gardens ? 〞
In the streets of New York, Harry never knew who he was going to bump into. Most of the time it was fans who recognized him but if he was lucky he would find someone who he knew. He was taking a walk to get his cup of needed coffee. He stopped waiting for a light to change when a gentle bump on his back had him turn around. The biggest smile spread on his face when he saw Elena. Before saying anything, he glanced at the cover in question. "No question she paid the magazine off." He has always had her back. "Clearly you are on a different level they don't understand. But why do you care about one magazine, El? Thought you were above tabloids."

boredom is something that comes naturally for the castillo actress, constantly needing some sense of chaos in her world to occupy the restlessness that takes place within their mind. red bottoms click against the pavement, glasses shading the sunlight from their eyes and slightly shielding themselves from the onlookers that continue to do the double takes, only boosting the ever - growing ego and causing a smirk to sit permanently on her lips. stopping momentarily, they begin the back step, looking towards the magazines on display and moving closer to the backside of an individual, peeking over their shoulders before a gasp is audibly exiting their lips. “ that’s fuckin’ hurtful and bullshit — i absolutely wore that better, look at my cleavage compared to hers, who the fuck writes that magazine ? my grandmother ? ”

It had been a good while since Harry really got invested in a role. His acting roles had been limited. With his years in the business, he had the privilege to handpick the roles he wanted to play. He wasn't going to sign onto anything. When he heard of the this fantasy best seller being worked on, he jumped onto the project. Like any good actor, he took on some research on the story. But just reading the book wasn't enough for him. He got his people to contact the author in hopes to set up a lunch with him. Harry reserved a table at one of his favorite cafes in the city. He had only been sitting for a moment before he noticed someone walking up to the table. Quickly he swiped the corner of his mouth to greet them. "Thank you so much for taking the time to meet me today. It's such a pleasure to meet you."
Harry lifted his gaze from his phone. "No. Continue if you like. I was listening. We need to change a location, okay. We can work on that."

Traveling back across the pond was something Harry didn't do a lot in his later years. He seemed to enjoy America a bit more but if he was going to watch a football game, Harry would pick England over America every time. Harry thought over Ace's first question then glanced the the woman. "Wine. Red, please." He let out a breathy chuckle. He wasn't going to judge what Ace and his employees did but he wasn't the young lad he used to be. "She's lovely but wine is just fine." He gave her a quick wave for no hard feelings. "I'm not looking for anything at the moment."

Harry loved attending these sort of events. It got him out of his home and extend his contacts. There was always someone new to introduced himself to. Granted half the time they knew who he was but Harry still wanted to stay humble. He had already went around introducing himself and familiarizing with the other people here. "A lot of people turned up tonight. You tell people there will be champagne and gift bags and they fill this hotel to the brim."
Harry attended charity events at least once a month. That was happened when your name was Griffin. Him and his father were frequent to attend any sort of charity. After attending so many Harry learned a few tricks to liven them up. The table he was seated at tonight was filled with new faces to him. His attention was at the speaker until a whisper came from his side. He chuckled at her comment. "You're new to these?" Harry looked back up to the speaker. She wasn't wrong. He had already tuned them out. He was already giving a good amount of money to the cause, at least he do was get a drink with a pretty woman. "You know, what the hell. I'll take you on the offer. Let me walk you to the bar."

normally, normally she enjoyed attending the charity gala's set up by her manager. it's good for your brand, they said. the dressing up and flirting were usually the best part.
the worst ? the speeches. undoubtedly. they bore her to death, as lili did her best not to be caught yawning in the audience, hiding behind a nonchalant expression and the charms of her dramatic, flamboyant dress.
" i need a drink, " she confesses to the person seated next to her, whispering through gritted teeth. " these events get worse by the minute. i will start swinging by the chandelier à la sia if this speech doesn't end within the next three seconds. you with me ? "
He appreciated the concern. "I know I might not look like I can party still, but I hold out a bit longer." He just needed another drink to keep him going. "I've been going to events like this for years. The French just do it a little different. How about you? What made you step out in the gardens?"

" You sure you're doing alright? "
He laughed at her response. He wouldn't put it pass it them that were was some sort of room like that here. But that's not what he was going to. "No, no. Nothing like that." He took a sip of his glass of wine with his free hand. He took a hold of her hand as soon as she slipped into his. "But I can't say anything about some fun party favors later on. I might know I guy that is here." Harry lead them through the crowds. "What I was going to show was this room that some have moved to I heard it's more lively."
"Are you taking to me some kind of secret sex dungeon Harry, because I can promise you it won't go down well. Not unless you also have some nose dust tucked away too." Esmay replied skeptically, reaching out to grab hold of his hand as he moved towards the next room, conscious she might lose him in the crowed otherwise. "Then again it would still be better than this."

"Do you mind if I join you for a bit ?" Harry approached the other at the bar. "It's a bit crowded over. Needed to break away."
He extend his hand for her to take and lead her to the dance floor. It had been a while since Harry saw Julieta. "You look amazing." He was pleasantly surprised to see her at the event. "How are you enjoying the party so far? You meet a lot of interesting people at things like this. "
