You slowly opened back up your eyes and looked at Ignis as he held you in his arms. His warm gaze back at you instantly made you relax as you smiled back at him. And as he loosen up his grip on you, was when you realized that you were still on the dance floor after started off the final half of the party with the first dance. But then as the band started to play an up beat song, you couldn't help but to return the same that he gave you before moving you again with the music. Only this time you were joined by several other people as they started to dance to the music as well.

You don't know how long that you had been on the dance floor before you both finally decided to take a break.   All you knew was that your feet were starting to hurt a bit.  Which meant to you that it was a great time to check on the kitchen staff.  So after leaving Ignis for a moment at the table so that he could visit with everyone, you headed to the kitchen.

You were pleased to see when you walked in, that they were all grins and had gone through almost all of the food.  But there was still enough leftover to feed everyone in the kitchen.  In fact there was still a bit of left overs even after they ate.  Which you had already gotten it cleared with King Regis that the staff could separate it out and take it home to their families.  He didn't want the food to go bad before him and Noctis' had a chance to finish it off.  

Which worked out great for everyone.  So after helping everyone separate out the food, everyone started to clean up the kitchen. You went to jump into the dish room to help wash things up. But you were abruptly stopped by a pair of strong arms that gently reached around you and pulled you back.

You slightly jumped from the initial touch. But quickly calmed down when you recognized a certain cologne.  You couldn't help but to smile as you let him pull you flat against him. His arms felt nice as he wrapped them around you.

"I think they can handle it from here." You heard Ignis say in his deep voice.

"But....?"  You started to say before he nibbled on your ear.

Instantly you couldn't form any words anymore. All you could do was gasp as he slipped his tongue in your ear. You reached up with both hands and wrapped them around the back of his head as you were starting to get lost in his touch. He responded by deeply exhaling as he pulled you hard against him.

"Ignis..." You gasped as you felt your whole body start to heat up from him.

He slightly trembled as he pulled you hard to him once again before he loosened his grip.  "I promise I will bed you again when we can do so. But for the time being, I'm afraid that we will have to refrain."

And with that he completely pulled away. You stood there stunned as he turned and walked away from you.  Did he honestly think that he was going to have enough energy after the trial?  No, there was no way. But then what was that suppose to mean?

"Don't worry (y/n)."  You heard one of the baker assistants say.  "We got it from here.  Go be with him.  He needs you more than we do right now."

"Right."  You smiled back at them.  "Thanks."

You then left the kitchen and followed Ignis back out to the ballroom.  But as soon as you stepped out of the kitchen you saw that almost every guest.       was gone or was leaving. You quickly pulled out your phone saw that it was about that time.

Suddenly your heart started to race. It's almost time.

"You alright?" You heard Monica ask as she walked up to you. "You looked scared."

You slowly looked at her before you dropped your gaze as you put your phone away.  "I can't help it. I'm worried about the trial."

"But you have all done it before. It shouldn't be anything different. Right?" She asked as she searched your face.
