Labyrinth Ballroom Romane & Geschichten

Luna asked. “Nothing.” She stepped closer to me, her fingers brushing my arm. “Stay close to me tonight,” she said softly. “They’ll be watching.” They always were. I nodded. “Of course.” She smiled again, satisfied. But something inside me felt restless. Unsettled. And I didn’t know why. — The ballroom was exactly what I expected. Huge. Bright. Suffocating. Crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling like frozen explosions. Golden light spilled across marble floors. Waiters moved silently through the crowd, carrying trays of champagne.

The great ballroom of the mansion sparkled like a dream, lit by cascading chandeliers that seemed to dance with the elegance of a thousand twinkling stars. Guests moved gracefully across the polished marble floor, their laughter and conversation blending harmoniously with the soft strains of classical music played by the live orchestra. Lily stood near the towering double doors, her palms lightly damp as she welcomed each guest with Lucas and Liam on either side of her, Alpha Dean and Luna Ariel just a few steps away.

The wheels squeaked and resisted, catching on the edge of the runner. My arms trembled with the effort. The muscles in my shoulders and back burned. This is impossible. I can't do this. I'm going to collapse before I even get it plugged in. But I dragged it anyway because the alternative was another strike from Carmina's cane, and I didn't know if my body could take another one. The ballroom was vast and empty. High ceilings with crystal chandeliers. Tall windows draped in cream silk. And the floor was an enormous expanse of black and white checkered marble that stretched from wall to wall like a chessboard built for giants.

One corner of his mouth kicked up for a millisecond, and then he was looking straight ahead again as we approached the large open doorway. Now that we had mostly finished with the photographers and reporters, I could relax and take in the lobby as we entered. It was beautiful, with gleaming marble floors and soaring ceilings adorned with sparkling chandeliers. The ballroom where the gala was being held was equally impressive. It was a huge space, featuring intricate moldings, mirrored accents, and even more extravagant chandeliers. A table with various objects placed on it ran down the side of the room. Lirael had mentioned a silent auction, so it must be for that.

Labrys marks—double axes—glimmered where water ran down grooves older than empires. Cables snaked along the ground, feeding rows of lamps that pushed the dark only so far. The air tasted of oil, hot metal, and men who worked too long. Stephanos slipped inside, keeping low, a mouse that knew the hawks by name.

, I heard Galina say and I gave her the death stare and everyone laughed. “We don't have time to spare, let's go”, My father said, not looking once at Lily. The ballroom is located at the East Wing of the mansion, a large open floor made of polished marbles, high ceilings with chandeliers, its wall was adorned with ornate mirrors and paintings. It had grand a entrance, plush seating areas for guests to rest and socialize, a stage and orchestra pit for live music performances. “Wow, it looks beautiful”, Lily commented and I smiled at her. She was the most beautiful thing here.

“ What are you talking about? “ I asked. “Come on Lila. I know that look in your eyes anyday and anytime.” He replied, straightening up just as Ronan was taking Joan to the dance floor. Of course he would. I had practically let him own me! I turned my attention back to the ballroom filled with different species of beings, but mostly populated by the werewolves of Silver Lake. The ballroom itself sparkled under the golden light and the air was buzzing with people in masks and expensive dresses and tuxedos.

Yet beneath the glitz and glamour, I sensed a pervasive emptiness—a facade that masked a world of expectations and unspoken agendas.

he assured the man who stood in a tuxedo near the doors. “See that you do.” Mack patted my hand on his arm and as we passed through the doors, tugged me immediately to the side and we began to walk a circle. The ballroom was incredible and just as impressive as the lobby of the hotel. There was another massive chandelier in the center, though the ceiling wasn’t quite as high.
