To Find Edward

Marguerite is oblivious as she folds Arthmael's body into beautiful silhouettes. Following the familiar choreography, she dances relentlessly. Grand Jete! Penche! followed by a series of graceful pas de chats. All concatenated in front of the enthralled emperor. When the music reaches the outro in a full stop, Marguerite falls gracefully on the floor in a pose. She stays there and waits for the king to tell her she can leave. She stays on the ground for a long time but hears nothing from him. Wondering if she did anything wrong, she wants to lift her head to look at the king's face, but quickly remembers the warning he gave her. If she disrespects him any further, who knows what he might do to her. She suddenly feels her chin being lifted, her eyes meet the hazels of Demian. She forgets to breathe and falls from her pose onto the floor. She doesn't have time to regain her senses before two strong arms lift her off the floor. She is about to question him on his weird behaviour when her mouth is suddenly covered by his in a kiss. ------------------------------------------------- Marguerite is very talented. She has a beautiful voice, a great passion for music and various talents in the arts. Unfortunately, her bright future gets compromised when she is forced to leave her world to fulfill the wish of someone else. Marguerite wanting to go home as soon as possible, accepts. However things turn out quite unexpected for her. The cover belongs to the rightful owner. If you are the owner of the art and want me to take it down, DM me on discord burlesque_dancer#2837

Future queen

Marguerite wakes up in her bed, still a bit confused. When did she come back? She remembers falling asleep on Jurian's shoulder. Did he carry her all the way to her room?

She looks around her empty room as if searching for someone, but no one is there. She tries to bury her feeling of disappointment and rings the bell for her servants.

Today is the promotion day, everyone will be gathered at the same place this evening. This time they will be sitting around small tables eating snacks as the chosen ladies are called to make speeches, the emperor doesn't need to attend so the entire event will have a more laid-back ambience.

She goes to her bath and starts rubbing the fragrant soap on her skin. Reaching her face, she tries to clean behind her ear but suddenly gets obstructed by something. 

Surprised, she reaches to touch the object that interrupted her hand and notices that it has a smooth surface and a cold feeling. Is it an earpiece?
