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

Earl Hye

Marguerite walks in the now-familiar hallway with an anxious look on her face. Depending on how it goes, she will either have a horrific experience for the rest of her stay in this castle, or she will have a bearable one where she can live in relative comfort.

She is scared, scared that she will have to serve a man she doesn't love in his bed, scared of having to work a horrible job that she didn't choose, scared of having to be at the beck and call of mean people that will want to see her humiliated for fun, scared of becoming a bedservant.

Nonetheless, she raises her chin and imitates the expression of confidence everyone around her seems to have. She tries to act cold and detached like everyone else.

The Grand Hall is as grandiose as ever, living up to its name. Impressive walls and tall ceilings oppress her shoulders ominously as she tries as hard as possible to stand straight and firm.
