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

Title

Marguerite is currently kneeling in front of the emperor with a dozen women or so. They all lift their hands towards him in a receiving pose, and a small pouch is deposited in their palms one at a time. They have been standing in this position for so long now, Marguerite is finally able to stand up and sighs in relief. She feels the urge to massage her soared knees but restrains herself in public. The others look unphased, as always. It's amazing how big the gap between her and them is.

She can only open the pouch in her room. After a few more speeches and whatnot, they are finally excused. They are given a week's vacation to go visit their family and celebrate if they wish to. Marguerite isn't sure where she should go at that time, but Edward said he would take care of everything, therefore she doesn't fret too much.
