Lady Cazalet has spent most of her day poised in front of an artist's canvas posing for a painting that is to hang in the great hall along side the many other art works of LeahJane's ancestors that all once resided in this very castle. Today marks the castles 250th anniversary and to celebrate the occasion LeahJane is holding a masked ball. All the towns people were invited to this grand event. Hundreds of lit candles filled the sanctum with a delicate and illuminating glow.
The great hall soon filled with singing and laughter as everyone was enjoying the evening festivities. Across the room stood a tall, dark haired man wearing a long coat of black velvet. The black mask he wore upon his face hid the identity of the man from all around him. LeahJane did not recognise any of the features that his mask failed to hide. His extremely pale skin, jet black hair and alluring smile were unfamiliar to LeahJane as she thought she knew everyone from the province. Intrigued by this man she had to find out more. After speaking to many of her guests not a single person had any knowledge of mysterious man.
With a split second she had lost sight of him. As leahJane looked around the room hoping to catch another glimpse of the man a gentle tap was felt upon her shoulder. She turned to find the man standing before her, gazing down upon her with his vivid blue eyes. The man hands LeahJane a beautiful blood red rose and requests that she dances with him. Without hesitation she takes his hand and he leads her to the centre of the room where many of the guests were dancing. Shivers run across her body for his hand was ice cold to the touch. With his hypnotic eyes and alluring aroma LeahJane suddenly no longer cared about the coldness of his skin.
As the minstrels played and the wine ran free, Leahjane danced with the mysterious gentlemen well into the night. Time ticked away and dawn was soon approaching. Just before the sun broke upon the horizon the masked man leaned down and whispered "thank for such a wonderful evening my lady"then gently kissed LeahJane on the lips. Within seconds of that breathless moment he was gone. No one saw him leave, he just vanished. Children playing on the castle wall claim they saw a bat as black as night, fly from the castle grounds just before dawn. LeahJane laughed at the children's story and headed back inside to farewell the remaining guests that we heading home.
LeahJane hopes to meet the tall, dark and very mysterious man again.
