Re: Bex | Marcel
"It was touch and go for a moment," Rebekah replied darkly. "I can be kind Marcel, but you know there is a balance that must be struck between the one in charge and the ones taking the orders. I can't let him off with just a smile and a reassurance that is okay." Though from the looks of it, Josh was doing just that. Well, it was expected from him. Josh would always be kind and sympathetic, but Rebekah couldn't afford to be so giving with either emotion given she was partially in charge.
Rebekah allowed Marcel to lead her out on to the dance floor; the vampire rested a hand on his shoulder as the two started to sway to the beat of the music. Both Claudia and herself had made sure to hire a DJ with experience in spinning multiple tracks from many generations to ensure there was something for everyone tonight.
"Please don't be too upset with me, Marcel. I'm just trying to make sure tonight goes smoothly," Rebekah said softly. "This is a huge event for Claudia and myself. Our patrons will judge us based on how tonight goes. If we can even hold a candle to Irina. I just want to make a good impression and guarantee funds for this place for another year."
