"Losing my touch," he said, "if it took you that long to notice." This was actually downright subtle for Niyol, whose usual approach involved more money and less clothes.
That scandalized tone and that pretty little blush had him strongly reconsidering having approached at all. It was possible that making assumptions based on a dress she hadn't even picked out for herself had been a miscalculation. A little bit coy, an elegant veneer – whatever he'd thought, this didn't quite fit. Either she was a helluva lot more innocent than she looked, or she was very good at pretending to be; either way, it put a significant damper on his plans, insofar as he'd had plans at all.
Shit damn.
But then, of course, was the issue of how to extricate himself from a situation of his own making. He could always just be honest – sorry, but it's come to my attention that you might not be interested in getting nailed to the floor. Come to think of it, you're pretty white to start with, so painting you with it seems excessive. I'm looking for someone with at least five years' experience, do you have a resume?
That felt like the sort of thing that might not end all that well for him, no-consequences masquerade aside. And he still hadn't figured out how many days she had left.
More than one, probably.
Shit damn.
She changed the subject, and maybe that was for the best. Steering the conversation away from flirtation as he attempted to continue steering them along to the music, a dance in only the loosest possible sense. He gave his very best 'active listening' nod.
What a shame, though. He didn't think there was a whore in the whole Wasteland with hair like that. There couldn't have been, because she'd have cost him a fortune already if there was.
"Can't say as I've ever been," he said. "Not many beaches in the desert." His eyes moved briefly past her, skimmed over the crowd behind her before returning, watching for passing dancers. It was also possible that he was being just slightly inattentive. The thought that their little lesson might not end as he'd hoped set his mind to wandering, and his eyes with it, though it wasn't conscious on his part. It wasn't as if the ballroom was going to offer him any solutions.
Unless she had a slutty twin sister wandering around.
