"I have organized this ball tonight for one reason. My precious sons have been cursed"
Everyone gasps in suprise.
"What?"
"Isn't it supposed to be a secret then your highness." Someone said to your right.
"No It wasn't really a curse though"
Everyone sighs in relief. Even you who just got there.
"Their emotionless and cold. I've made this ball just so they could enjoy themselves however... As you can see neither of them are here tonight." The queen said.
"What do you suppose I do then?"
Everyone stares in disbelief as the door opened. They whispered among themselves. Prince Zen walked in it so the guards said. The bowed and apologized for his late coming and also informed that his brother could not be coming due to his duties. Zen stands next to his mother and she asked the same question again.
This reminds you of a book you read You think the name was... what is the name again You don't remember You've never really been the studious type. If you have to learn something you'll learn it. But forgot it afterwards anyway.
Ah yes The main point you have not forgotten though. Where the fl said the ml should dance to increase affection. Hmm Maybe it could work here to.
You normally wouldn't be the one who's eager to jump in the for first but this time... well it can't be helped.
So you walk to the centre of the ballroom and kneel before the Queen. Your parents gasps. Stunned by your sudden behavior.
"What is it ? You may speak."
"Your Majesty I have suggested to make."
"What would that be? Go on."
"Why don't we hold a dance?" She looks at you and approves.
"Dancing is a good idea indeed" So the dance began having the prince in the center of it all*
----------The next day----------
"Let me fix you a dress" Your mother says after handing you out a shopping list.
"Im just going to the market Give me a break mother"
"(Y/N)"
You sigh and grab the first dress nearby.

After putting it on. "I'm going out mom"
"Yeah yeah come back in time for dinner"
"Sure I will" You say and take of to the market.
The market place One of the most annoying and crowded place.People we're always shoving and running around. You hated that place. Even on your way their it was busy. You bumped into a young man as someone shoves past you.
"Oh Sorry You say backing away from him. And thank you for catching me."
He nods and points towards a alley. His hood covered his face and Suspicious you think at first
"A shorter path?"
He nods
Perhaps he can not speak How... Inconvenient you think and sad too.
"Should I trust you?" You say meeting his eyes. He stares back for a while. He then shrugged and walks away losing interest. You suddenly think of a certain announcement you heard last night.
Perhaps you can take a short cut.
Surprisingly it was a good shortcut. No thieves and murderers wandered around.
You arrived at the market place do your mother shopping.
It was twilight now You rushed home.
Your mother would kill you but you'd like to take a little detour.
You always went to watch the sunset on a old pier.
You see someone already there.

That sucks you think and turn around. Your favorite spot is occupied by someone else. You were about to spin on your heal and leave.
"Wont you join me?" A unfamiliar voice says.
"Oh Who are you?"
He sighed "Forgotten me already Even though we had such a memorable first encounter"
" Oh. You say realizing it was the guy from earlier. I thought you could not speak"
"Just because I didn't doesn't mean I can't"
"Right" You say rolling your eyes and walk past him.
You sit by the water and he's next to you.
"How did you find this spot?" You say curious about the handsome man.
A strand of golden hair which sticks out from his hood shined brightly with the setting sun.
"Guess I won't be needing this for now." He says removing it completely His short blond hair is gorgeous. It filled his face so well. Then he has those the breath stealing blue eyes. He's got you completely hypnotized. No wonder he covered his face. Every step he'd take there would be bodies in his wake. Men and woman who have been knocked out by his hotness. You could only imagine the muscle underneath those thick clothes-
"I was just wandering around" His voice halting your inappropriate thoughts. He answered your question like he's supposed to.
Time passed The whole time you two enjoy the scenary and then you remember you don't have all the time of the world.
"Do you come here often?" He asked not removing his gaze from the setting sun.
"I do in fact every day You say giving him a nudge. But now I'm on an errand Then you get up trying not to fall face first into the river so I've got to run Still have my dad's dinner to deliver after all."
"I see Then this is farewell"
"Yes See you around stranger. Don't fall asleep or in kay" You warm waving him goodbye while leaving. Not asking his name. He seems like someone with many secrets so you didn't ask either.
You're a view steps of the old pier when a hand grabs you. Not hostile but you still flinched at the foreign touch.
"Izana" He whispered into your ear his breath tickled you.
