Chapter 40: The Ball - Part 2

Rhea tried her best to concentrate on her steps. Sir Hanns told her that she looked beautiful and it made her blush, making her seem cuter in her slightly flustered form. When the dance ended with the music, Sir Hanns and Rhea bowed to each other before she was left on the floor by herself. Someone approached her from behind and tapped on her shoulder lightly. She spun around making her gown twirl slightly. It was Phileas.

He looked handsome as always, his dark orbs perfectly contrasted with his pale skin and white hair. Unlike Sir Hanns who wore a red outfit for the ball to match the emblem of the kingdom, Phileas still wore his white Knight uniform. The blue butterfly brooch she had put on him, sat on his left chest.

He rubbed his neck a little before saying, "Your Highness looks beautiful tonight".

Rhea giggled, "What's with the honorifics? Just be normal. And thank you," she blushed again, "You look...good too".
