Chapter 21

She wasn't pay attention....

No attention at all...

Annabella wasn't paying attention to the growing party before her. Neither it nor to the laughing conversation Remus and Kinsley were having on their table.

No.

Anna had agreed to come to this excessive and elegant dance for the mere opportunity to meet up with Imogen. For the purpose of speaking with her. Talk with her. Find the answers that was burning the inside of her cloudy mind. To even help her out in achieving her goals. Maybe achieving her goals...

Maybe, in that way, she will be able to find out about the secretive and so well hidden truth. She needed to find out. She was just getting seriously tired and sick of the whole thing. Of the whole disturbing situation that was replaying at every single minute of her life.

But no.

Annabella wasn't about to sit there doing nothing. She wasn't about to wait for the truth to surface, itself. Anna wasn't about to wait for the 'right time', as Tenjin and her mother always said.

No.

Anna needed to find Imogen.

That was for sure.

Besides, she just couldn't stand the view playing in front of her anymore. Anna couldn't stand seeing Brianna's flirtatious attempts on gaining Tristan's interest. It was just unbelievably irritating and pathetic. Even infuriating.

And the thing was...

That Anna's mood was already ruined and she just didn't want it to become worse.

Anna put down her drink and raised from her seat, gaining efficiently Remus and Kinsley's attention, stopping their conversation.

"I... I need to go to the... emm... restroom ", she hesitantly said," I'll be right back. "

" Did something happened, love? ", Remus said," Do you need any help? "

Anna threw him a dirty look," I'm going to the restroom, Remus. I'm pretty sure I don't need your help "

" Why are you saying that? ", he playfully explained," You don't know how many things can happen in such a place. "

" Perverted as always.",Kinsley said in a bored expression, "Do not worry, Anna. I won't let his perverted ass follow you."

Remus turned to look at Kinsley with a mischievous grin playing across his angelic features, "Are you, probably, jealous of what might happened between us, in there? Unfortunately, for you, dear Princess, I'm quite starstruck with my lovely escort, over here."

"Believe me, dumbass. I wasn't worried about that. ", Kinsley said, slightly annoyed," I'm simply worried about her well being and body safety. "

" Pain always comes with pleasure ", Remus cockily replied, gaining a scoff from both Kinsley and Anna who glared daggers at him.

" I think this conversation has gone away too far. ", Anna said with a sigh," I'll be right back ", she finished before turning around and dissappeared through the elegant high ranked and aristocratic sea of drunken royal and aristocrat families, occupying the whole Ballroom.

Kinsley turned back at Remus, deleting her annoying expression off of her beautiful pale face and turned at him with a scrutinizing gaze. Trying to figure out both him and the thoughts running through his unpredictable mind.

"Well? ", she said raising an eyebrow at his direction, across from her," Why? "

Remus looked at her with an expression of raw curiosity and confusion," Why what? "
