Raven Sauveur

Leaving Eclair behind, the daughter could only smile at her mother's behaviour. Despite being around in her forties or so, she still has this young aura. Thinking that she hasn't grown up, or so she thought. Her mother has been so strict to her since child, but once she was able to blend and got used to it. She did it. Trying to distract her from the difficulty of breathing. She held the champagne that was on her hand, staring at it. In her mind was a vision of a beautiful field. She doesn't know where it is located but she would love to go there. She took a sip of her champagne and looked at her mother enjoying her dance. She motioned her body left to right with the rhythm.

She was called by a man, around six foot or so. He looked down and smiled at Eclair. The woman doesn't recognize the man, until "May I have a dance with you, my lady?" Eclair didn't expect someone to offer her a dance. She would love to but there is something that doesn't allow her to. She softly says, "I apologize, sir. I might not be able to accept your offer to dance with me as I am already owned. Over there, there's women waiting for their prince charming to come."

She suddenly saw a glimpse of a familiar face, "I'll be leaving now." She puts down her champagne and follows the familiar face, but instead the person she seems to be following is getting fast and gone into somewhere not in the ballroom. She was in the hallway, trying to catch up her breath. Éclair looked around the place and found a glass door. It leads outside the balcony. She got out, and was amazed by how beautiful the outside was. She didn't expect something like a pool to be down there.

She was losing her breath however, chasing down to that person wasn't a good idea after all. She was hyperventilating then suddenly she couldn't breathe properly, she tried to suck in some air but she couldn't. She was struggling to take off her dress but the layer was too thick for her to reach the corset. That is when she passed out and fell down off the edge. The sound of water splashing filled the quiet place.

A man in a suit casually walking on the hallway, suddenly he saw a woman trying to get her dress off. At first, he thought that she got a screw loose or something so he just passed her. Out of sight, he suddenly heard a splash. It was odd, then he felt something in his stomach. He went back to the place where he had passed – the woman was out of sight. He panicked and blasted to the edge. Down there, he saw the woman slowly sinking in the deep pool. He quickly takes off his vest and jumps off to save her.

Diving into the cold water, he grabbed the woman's arm and tried to pull her. But it was impossible, she was too heavy since she was wearing a fully layered dress. He got no choice but to take them off. Ripping the purple dress, he struggled to take them off. Then finally, he could bring her to him. He was almost out of breath, quickly he swam up to the surface. Gotten out of the water, he breathes in for air. Then swims to the edge of the pond to get on land. He checked up on the woman, slapping her face slowly, "Miss?". There were butlers coming to them, and was astounded when they saw the drenched man and woman.

The man put his finger under her nose – she wasn't breathing. Quickly, he did CPR on her but it didn't work. That is when he noticed, he quickly held her corset and ripped it into half. But she hasn't let out a breath, again the man tried to do CPR. The woman choked out water from her mouth which almost landed on the man's face. She feels free, she slowly breathes in to get all the oxygen she had lost. Once she opened her eyes, he saw a man. His locks were hanging from his scalp. Then Eclair realized he was staring at her, "Are you alright, miss?" It's him, the man that was on the other side of the flower shop.
