(read part 25 again to know what happens before this chapter)

We all sat down for dinner in the dining hall, me next to Marvolo, his father and mother to his left. Across from me, Anne, Ominis and Sebastian's empty seat. A few other guest and dearest friends of the family at the other seats. Everyone was filling their plates with food as they sipped from wine glasses and talked about different things. Anne was constantly whispering in Ominis's ear, Marvolo didn't look away from his plate, and I didn't have any appetite. Not that I was nervous or something, but I had a feeling tonight would be a party by a whole different genre and class.

I didn't even know how to dance properly at a Gala, nobody taught me that. As for a fact, I didn't even have a dress to match the occasion... all too tight to sexy or too short. Before dinner, I quickly took a look in the walk in closet, but everything was much too overdressed for me. A bit outdated, not my style or simply ugly. I could have fetched a dress in Lleida by the gown shop, but I totally forgot about it. When I finished my food, I cleaned my hands with a cloth and went off the table like everyone did. They all went separate to their rooms to change and get ready for the night.

I closed the bedroom doors behind me and fell onto my bed with a loud sigh, why did I say yes to this invitation?

After a while, I sat at my vanity in my tight strapped corset, the one I found in the closet. My underwear beneath it, skin shade stockings high till my thighs and black heels on my feet. I looked like a fucking whore in this outfit, all I needed was red lipstick and I would be one. A soft knock was heard at the door, probably Marvolo who came for our unfinished business "You may come in"
I spoke with a raised voice.

The person stepped in and closed the door behind, and walked in slow steps towards me. In the mirror I saw the familiar white blonde hair neatly combed back, "Well hello sexy" I said teasingly. And I turned to find a confused Ominis with a black box in his hands.

He grinned as he sat the box onto the edge of the bed, "first you were flirting with me, and now you think I'm sexy? This must be a dream" and he chuckled.

"Oh shit, I'm sorry Ominis I thought you were Marvolo" as I stood up I walked to him standing by the box "what did you bring with?" And I sat at the edge of the bed. "Well your dress of course."

I smiled up at him, instantly regretting it because he couldn't see it... "My dress? How did you know I needed one?" He sat next to me on the edge, "I know every dress in that closet, by detail, form, fabric and shape. They are all too extravagant for you. So I went to fetch one from my mother's closet"

I opened the lid of the box and removed the white paper on top of it. Inside was a corset white dress. "It's beautiful Ominis! This would definitely match with Marvolo's suit. Is your mother aware of me borrowing her dress?" He nodded, "she is, I asked to take a look in her second closet. She keeps her dresses there that already had been worn. She always buys or gets new ones, never wears the same piece again"

He took the dress out of the box and lifted it for me to see it entirely. With straps over the shoulders, and detailed vines from above to below the dress. Not too long, not too short, just the right size. Just a gown matching for the occasion, that fits me, and isn't too much taking attention. I felt at the fabric "it's perfect, thank you Ominis for this kind gesture" He bowed in politeness "you will look stunning in the Isadora Bromelia. Come, I will help you get ready" and he unzipped the zipper of the dress.
