Chapter 4 _ "may I have a dance with my lady? "

"It's such an honor for the crown prince to attend my coming-of-age ceremony," I said and did a Curtsy whilst beaming fully at him.

"My pleasure your highness," he said grinning, oh if he keeps on smiling like that I might just melt right in front of him, he had these unique features I'd never seen nor heard of someone with silver hair, he was just perfect and different.

"May I have a dance with my lady?" He stretched his hand forward. " yes you may your highness " I didn't waste much time as I swiftly placed my hands on his outstretched hand. His hand felt so soft like that of a newly born, just too soft for a person that had partaken in many battles and usurped his brothers in attaining the throne

We approached the dance floor holding hands and the other couples dispersed, we took our spot at the center of the dance floor and I could feel the intense stares as all attention was now diverted to us the hall went silent again...

My nerves were back and I started to panic as my heart pounded against my rib cage, and my hands were shuddering, I didn't know why was it because of the intense stares or the fact that am about to dance with the so-called demon prince whom everyone feared.

He gently squeezed my hands and I instantly felt his warmth spread through my body I instantaneously felt this newly profound confidence in me.

The music began to play and we both moved rhythmically to the music being played, I closed my eyes and savored the moment as I would make sure never to forget this feeling, after a while, the music changed to waltz, I wasn't a good dancer when it came to waltz's as I had difficulties in practicing even with the help of my tutor but I planned to give it my best. He pulled me closer and we started to waltz.

I almost didn't need to do much as he was a pro, just how many talents does he possess? he was just unique! even his voice was Immensely captivating, I felt like I was transported into the world of independence as he skillfully moved me around, I felt this magical feeling and I loved every second we spent together on the dance floor.

The music ended, and the crowd erupted in cheers as we did a short bow and vacated the dance floor.

Prince Fabian then kissed my knuckles, I blushed at the gesture which sent butterflies flapping wildly in my stomach " dancing with you was an honor your highness " my face had turned completely red by now.

"You may address me as Fabian my Queen " he looked at me with intent an unknown emotion flickered through his eyes.

"Huh?" I must be hearing things now, did he just call me his queen, and even told me to address him informally meaning he wants to get to know me better? My exaggeration these days.

" Nothing my lady " he smirked.

"I see the crown prince has an interest in my daughter "
