Last Dance

After the announcements, the musicians began playing songs for dancing.

The newly engaged couples were the first ones to dance this time as a form of showing off their ties and making the engagement official.

After they were done, everyone was invited to join.

Ferdinand was busy conversing with other rulers, so Arabella busied herself as well.

She wanted him to be her first dance today since it was the last day of the Assembly.

However, even though she was conversing with other queens, there were those who came to ask for a dance.

Arabella had no choice but to dance with them so she wouldn't seem haughty because she was an Empress loved by her husband.

She internally complained when Ferdinand saw her dancing with others and did not react.

He didn't mind her having her first dance today with someone else.

He simply kept conversing with the kings.

But then again, it was the last day of the Assembly, so she figured there must be things they wanted to settle.
