Engagement ceremony.
"TIGHTER!!" The royal tailor yelled at the maids as they tightened Chloe's corset.
Damn I can't breathe.
"Sweetheart.... You look breathtaking." Queen Rachael cooed at her daughter.
"Thank you mother." Chloe said with a bow.
"You sure you can breathe in that?" Gina frowned.
Is that even a question??
"Of course I can." Chloe smiled gracefully.
"Good. Because it's time." Sophie said, walking into the room. "Are you ready?"
"Yeah yeah.....let's go." Chloe said as she followed the guards out of the room.
The engagement ceremony was held in the throne room and for a brief moment Chloe fell speechless in awe of the amazing decorof the throne room and her mood instantly drops when her eyes meet those dark mysterious blue eyes.
Him.
Regaleon walked up to her and for a minute Chloe held her breath.
Breathe gurllll..... You got this
He stopped in front of her and she stared up at him. Something about him told her he wasn't her usual playful Leon. His aura today felt domineering and she had a strong urge to succumb to his dominance.
Hold up.... Her Regaleo- my Regaleon???.... Pffttttt
He gave a short bow to her and she did the same but her breath hitched when he held out his hand.
What?
Why is he holding out his hand?
Someone help!
Oh wait..
The dance.
THE DANCE!!
Breathe..
Breatheeeeee
You got thisssss
By the time Chloe snapped out of her thoughts, she was dumbfounded when she met almost all the nobles in Alvianna staring at her.
How long was I gone?
Worst of all, she met Regaleon in front of her still holding out his hand, looking unfazed.
Quickly, she took his hand and he led her to the middle of the large throne room.
It was a law in Alvianna that during the engagement ceremony, the soon-to-be wedded couple must share a dance.
Talk about dumb laws *Internal eyeroll*
Regaleon placed his arms around her thin waist and they swayed to the music while others stared. Some stared in admiration and some stared in pity at the beautiful princess burdened with the cross of marrying the blood thirsty creature.
"A-are you in a bad mood your Highness?" Chloe whispered.
"No. What makes you think that?" Regaleon frowned.
"W-well.... Your aura's all over the place, for one, A-And you've been f-frowning since s-so-"
"You need to learn how to mind your own business princess and stop the stuttering! " Regaleon snapped but he still whispered.
"I-I'm sorry your Highness." Chloe said with her head down, not letting him see her glossy eyes.
Luckily the dance was over and the nobles clapped while staring at them.
"Princess, I..." Regaleon tried to say, his expression softened.
"If you would excuse me, your Highness, I have to go somewhere." Chloe cut him off "Do enjoy the ceremony." She said with a small smile before walking off.
I care too much...
