The First Dance

Mirelah;

"Princess Mirelah!" 

I turn around swiftly when I hear Morgaze scream my name. 

His face is red with rage, and I can tell he is very close to exploding. Oh, what I'll give to see him lose his cool.

"You can not do that. It's against the rules!" He adds, and I scoff.

"How so?"

I demand, and he blinks at me.

"W-Well. You can not hurt a member of the Royal body!" He adds, and I can't help the dazed chuckle that escapes me.

"Oh. Your daughter is a member of the Royal body? Even you are just a council member, so what point are you trying to make, Morgaze?" I demand, and he glares at me. 

I'm right. He knows I'm right. Liriel stabbed herself in the face today, and not him, his wife, or even Liriel's sisters can save her. 

I turn to the guards, and with one dismissive nod, they drag Liriel out of the hall.

The doors shut behind her, and Queen Velnara's happy, excited voice comes next.
