The warm air felt nice against my skin as i walked along the crimson road to the most active place in the kingdom. It was a popular establishment, that i had to admit. Everyone seemed drawn to it, like a moth to a flame, I was no exception.

I reached the building and could hear the music and feel the energy through the closed Redwood doors, for a moment i stopped looking at the iron work around it, making two diamonds. This club was run by Lady Crystal herself, i found myself wondering if she would be here as i traced the handles with the tips of my fingers for a short moment before entering.

A crack appeared in the door in front of me as I opened it. The music that was once dimmed by the door washed against my eardrums it called my attention both violently and passionately as I walked into the room that was lit by flashes of red, and occupied by the dancers of our society.

It seemed that with every second of the dance, they were trying to find new ways to get closer. It was beautiful, every motion was filled with grace. I could tell the moment the occupants realized I had walked in, for a split second the room was still.

The people of the red kingdom are not one to hold such a pause, the moment seemed strained. Then they went back to there dance, each entranced in the little world they had created for themselves. One person approached me, sipping daintily on a light red colored drink that was resting in a golden class, was Crystal herself. She bowed lightly, a formality that was only really necessary in public, her slitted eyes glimmering as she greeted me. The mock formality in her voice made the moment even more perfect. She was my best friend, and my closest ally. Her voice was like wine, smooth and intoxicating.

"Lord Serce... What a pleasure to have the King of Hearts visiting my... humble establishment"
It's not bad at all - you have some good verb use, and the brief interaction between Serce and Crystal hooks your reader.

That said, it needs a thorough editing. You have a lot of small errors and some bland word choice - for instance, using the verb "to be" for no reason, using adjectives like "nice", misspelled words, and run-on sentences. Once you clean it up, it'll be much more interesting.
Why is the road crimson? Something abnormal like that should be explained, I think. Although, the mention of the King of Hearts makes me think of an Alice in Wonderland setting, which might make the road's colour more appropriate.

It's not badly written, but your narrative and description gets a bit strangled and your grammar starts to slip.
