~meh idk what i did with this ch. not rlly happy with it~

-Start of Chapter 93-

Time feels like it's melted away as we continue to dance, our movements slowing as the music transitions to something softer. My feet are starting to ache slightly, but I don't want the moment to end. Still, Sunghoon seems to notice before I say anything, gently leading us toward the edge of the dance floor.

"Need a break?" he asks, his tone light but laced with concern.

I nod, exhaling softly. "Yeah, just a little."

We step off to the side, the sounds of laughter and chatter filling the space as the other couples continue to dance. Sunghoon leans casually against a nearby pillar, his thumb absently brushing over my knuckles as we stand together.

"I thought I was getting better. Yet I'm getting tired too easily" I grumble feeling guilty

Sunghoon gives me a reassuring smile "My Lady it's completely fine. You're definitely better than before."

Before we can continue, Aera approaches us, radiant in her gown, with a group of her friends trailing behind. Her smile brightens as she waves at us.

"There you are! Y/N, Sunghoon," she says cheerfully. "I want to introduce you two to some of my closest friends."

Sunghoon and I exchange a quick glance before turning to greet them.

Turning to her friends, Aera gestures at SUnghoon , "This is Prince Park Sunghoon of House ENHYPEN"

Sunghoon bows down, giving them a polite smile "Nice to meet you"

The ladies smile back and some of them giggle at the back. It takes everything in me not to roll my eyes at them.

Aera then gestures me and introduces me, "And she is Lady Moon Y/N of House TXT."

"Moon Y/N?" one of them blurts out, her voice a mix of surprise and awe.

I don't even flinch; I'm far too used to this reaction by now. With a polite smile, I bow slightly, still holding onto Sunghoon's hand. "Yes, that's me. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Another friend gasps audibly, her eyes darting between me and Sunghoon. "Wait, you're really her?"

Sunghoon squeezes my hand lightly, his expression calm but protective as he nods toward them. "Yes, she is. Is there a problem?"

The subtle edge in his tone is enough to quiet their murmurs. One of them steps forward, her expression softening as she bows slightly. "It's not a problem—it's just... it's an honour to meet you both."

I return the gesture with practiced ease, the faintest hint of amusement playing on my lips. "Thank you." I say smoothly, though I can feel Sunghoon's silent question hanging in the air beside me.

Aera quickly jumps in to ease the tension. "Alright, alright, enough gawking at her like she's a rare gem. Y/N and Sunghoon are friends of mine—so let's keep things casual, alright?"

Her friends laugh nervously, nodding along, though their curious gazes linger a moment longer. Sunghoon leans down slightly, his voice low as he whispers just for me to hear, "Looks like you're stealing the spotlight again."

I glance up at him with a smirk, squeezing his hand. "Jealous?"

"Always." he replies smoothly, earning a laugh from me. "Only I get to look at you."
