The awkward dance

Amelia's mind raced as she searched for a solution for this situation,

But she unable to come up with anything.

Kneeling seems to be the only option, but this option was blocked off after her identity as an elven princess is revealed.

As her kneeling will be the kneeling of the elven kingdom.

Amelia said: "Give some face to Elven royal family and let this matter slide "

I said: "I might have considered it, if you had not tried to make me kneel forcefully "

Amelia said: "I have already apologized for that "

I said: "If apologies could resolve everything, there would be no need for laws "

Amelia was now cornered, and cornering someone often makes them more dangerous.

I said: "We can resolve this matter, but it requires your cooperation with some of my terms."

Amelia's expression lit up upon hearing my words, and she responded eagerly,

"Just name them, I'm willing to agree to any of your requests. "

I said: "You still need to kneel, but it can be done when it's just the two of us. "

Amelia's anger flared once more at the mention of kneeling, but she felt somewhat relief knowing it would be in private.

I said: "Also, don't bother me while I'm at the academy, and don't pressure me into participating in events if I choose not to."

After a moment of consideration, Amelia agreed to my request.,

She said: "But no one can know that I knelt "

I nodded and said: "I can swear in the name of Everheart family if you want "

A kind of evil smile appeared on my face after watching her agreeing to my request,

In the novel, she have a masochist personality, but it's not discovered even by herself at this point of novel,

Her being a royalty might be the reason for it.

Arthur also made her fall for her after he discovered her nature by chance.

Amelia raised the hand and chanted a spell, causing the barrier to darken, obscuring the view from outside.

With a heavy heart, she knelt on one knee and whispered, "I am sorry."

Her head hung low, her fists and legs were trembling.

It was the first time she had been treated this way.

If someone saw her like this, they would think she is enraged,

 but the truth was quite different, her cheeks were flushed with a delicate blush,

Her eyes were trembling as she was thinking,

'What is this feeling, I should hate this, but why do I like it? '

I knew her nature so I wasn't worried,

I gently lifted her chin with my hand,

"Apology accepted, However, from now on, you must kneel every time you encounter me."

Amelia tried to hide her blush but couldn't,

With trembling lips, she said: "But this wasn't decided "

I pinched her chin, locking eyes with her: "It's decided now. "

With that, I let go of her chin,

"Get up and remove the barrier. "

Amelia wanted to refute but her body seemed to betray her, her body was filled with pleasure.

Despite her attempts to suppress the emotions, she found herself unable to resist,

'What's happening to me... This isn't right... I shouldn't enjoy this, I should refute his command but why do I feel excited about thinking it'

Forcefully suppressing her emotions, Amelia rose to her feet and dispelled the barrier with a flick of her hand.

Outside, the students were visibly curious about the events that happened inside the barrier.,

Arthur had regained consciousness, his face marked with a red handprint, his gaze filled with hatred as he stared at me with killing intent.

I said: "I will return to my seat now, " before leaving the stage and making my way back to my seat,

I didn't even wait for Amelia to reply.

Mary asked: "What happened inside the barrier? "

I replied casually, "Oh, nothing much. She was just a bit shy about apologizing in front of everyone, so she apologized inside the barrier."

Amelia announced: "All of you can go to the hall and enjoy the party "

"However, keep in mind that you have classes tomorrow. "

The students streamed out of the auditorium,

Buzzing with excitement. While some were eager for the upcoming party,

Others were excited about the information about Amelia, completely forgetting about Arthur's speech.

Arthur, feeling utterly humiliated, left the auditorium as well.

Meanwhile, in the hall, the senior students were already immersed in the party,

In the hall, the senior students were already enjoying the party,

Some were dancing, some were enjoying food, some were talking with each other,

With excitement, the new students also joined in the party,

Turning to Mary, I said, "Let's grab something to eat."

Mary nodded in agreement, and together we helped ourselves to food from the buffet, settling down to eat.

Unbeknownst to us, the majority of the attention was directed toward us,

Some were intrigued by our backgrounds, but most were captivated by our appearance.

Noone in this academy can compare to me in terms of appearance,

Mary is also one of the top beauties of the academy,

So the two of us attracted too much of attention,

The girls were going crazy over me while boys were jealous,

Arthur, with my handprint on his face was still staring me with killing intent,

He seemed uninterested in the party, instead choose to stare me from a corner.

Meanwhile, Emma's gaze held a hint of longing as she looked in my direction.

She mustered her courage to approach me several times but hesitated every time for a fear of making me angry,

With a leisurely pace, Mary and I finished our meal,

Mary then asked, "Would you care to accompany me for a dance?"

I smiled and responded, "How could I refuse my dear sister?"

Entering the stage where the students were dancing, we also started dancing,

Archie as a noble, had received training in various skills from childhood, including dancing.

And with Archie's talent, he excelled in dancing,

We attracted more attention as we effortlessly glided across the dance floor

As Mary and I danced, our performance left the students in awe,

After some time, as we prepared to leave the stage, Emma approached us nervously.

"Um, could we perhaps... dance too?" she asked hesitantly.

My smile faded as Emma stood before me.

I said: "You used to detest dancing with me, though "

Tears welled in her eyes as she pleaded,

"I've already apologized for my actions. Can't you just forgive me? "

 "We can return to how things were before. You'll ask, and I'll reject you."

For a second, even I went speechless, I wanted to say something, but the words didn't even come to my mind,

Not only me, even the students around us were also speechless,

Emma looked into my eyes, her face confident and expectant, as if she was certain I would accept her offer.

The tears that had previously formed were no longer visible.

As I pondered over Emma's sudden change in demeanor, a thought cane to my mind,

'Had her character always been like this, or it changed after my interaction. '

I looked around the students until I saw Arthur who was also watching this drama,

I called him: "Arthur, could you come here for a moment?"

Even though he was looking at me like he would eat me, he still came and said,

"What do you want? "

I gestured towards Emma and replied, "Dance with her, and make sure to form a connection."

Tears began to flow from Emma's eyes,

"How can you do this to me... I want to dance with you, not some wild buffoon "

I looked her with disgust for her tears which flow conveniently as she wants.

Arthur was also angered by her words but still kept cool thinking about the dance and date,

I said in a domineering tone: "Emma Tudor, do as I say, or get ready to marry a servant "

Reluctantly, and with visible anger, Emma finally gave in and extended her hand to Arthur,

Arthur happily took her hand and together, they made their way onto the stage to join in the dance.

As Arthur attempted to follow Emma's lead on the dance floor, it quickly became clear that he had never trained to dance.

Despite his best efforts, he struggled to match her movements, narrowly avoiding stumbling thanks to his agility.

They both have different expressions, one was disgusted, the other one is happy like he won the lottery.

Watching their awkward dance from the sidelines, a chuckle escaped my lips.

Mary was also laughing while covering her mouth with her hand,

With a sigh, I said: "Let's head back to our rooms. We wouldn't want to miss our first classes, would we?"

Mary nodded and we both returned to our rooms, leaving behind the scenes of chaotic dance floor.
