EPILOGUE 5
After the first dance of the Crown Prince and Crown Princess, everyone now was allowed to dance. Damien looks at Alora and takes a deep breath before approaching her.
"Would you like to dance, My Lady?"
"Gladly, My Lord."
He said and smile at her, after how many years of not seeing each other they now again shared a dance and he saw this opportunity to start a conversation with her. He bet that Alora would avoid him and he will lose the chance to clear all the misunderstandings.
"What a wonderful day, do you agree?"
But Alora just look at her which made Damien laugh.
"Did I already said that You look beautiful today?"
"No."
"I thought you'll plan to ignore me until the music ends."
"Yes, I do."
"Quiet heartless, My Lady."
"I just want to avoid the stress that keeps on loitering around me."
"Are you not going to give me a chance to explain everything?"
Alora stare at him for a second and sighed. They still haven't talked properly and if she continues to avoid him he doesn't know if Damien will continue to ask for them to talk.
"Find my room then, I will give you a chance today."
"That's good to know."
When the dance was about to end Damien take a quick look around and he saw some men waiting beside and he already knew that they waiting for the music to end and ask Alora to dance.
"Your quite famous, did you know that those men want to dance with you?"
Alora was about to look when Damien pulled her closer and whisper to her ears.
"Didn't you learn that it was rude to look for other men while you are dancing with another?"
Alora's face reddened and she glared at Damien who has a silly smile on his face. He was glad that he has still some effect on her.
"Quit with your silly plays, Damien."
"Yes, Ma'am."
And when the music ends Damien didn't escort Alora back and continue dancing with her, he then snaps his fingers at the musician. They nod their heads at him and immediately enter another song.
"What do you think are you doing?"
"I want to dance with you a little longer."
Then he flash a wide smile that made Alora sigh.
"I'm getting hurt at your treatment at me."
"Be grateful that I'm sparing my time to you."
"Yeah. You know I notice that you don't show your smile anymore, yeah I know that you like to plaster a blank face. You seem another person to me."
"Yes there are some changes on me and probably you'll get mad when you hear that reason. I think you will have a worse reaction than my brothers."
"And what is it?"
"That will be a secret."
"A secret... I see. I will just bug you then until you said everything to me."
"I'm indeed surprised that you don't hear anything about me for those years."
"Well, I thought that you make sure that new about you won't reach onto my ears."
