Es couldn't hold back the excitent as soon as she saw entering into the hallway elegantly. She nearly jumped off to pull her into a tight hug and left the rest of people astounded especially Ron who couldn't even move from his spot for a while.
Only two years ago, Es located Anna's house in human world and later coaxed her to get back in Dalastia. She even secretly visited her foster parents who assud her death. She didn't want to scare them off with her real identity. Thus watching them distance away was the only option left for Es. After Anna shifted in human world, she gave birth to a beautiful girl nad Leah who was now thirteen years old.
By the ti, Ron regained his conscious, Es had already left to catch up Anna. Aaron rely glanced at his blank, hesitant expression and patted on his shoulder lightly to comfort. After pondering for a while, Ron exhaled a deep breath and finally mustered up the courage to turn around.
After turning his back to see Anna, his eyes were stuck for a mont on her face. She looked pure, innocent as before. Only the aura of maturity was engulfing her surrounding. After leaving out from Es's arms with a broad smile, Anna looked up at the way of Ron and finally t the man again whom she loved wholeheartedly after all this years.
Both of them kept staring at each others silently untill Es poked on her arms. Startled before looking down, Anna assured Es's concern with a faint smile,
" Princess, I am all right. I am not that immature Anna anymore and things have changed now."
Es smiled lightly and changed the subject,
" Ayra would be very happy to et you, Anna! She was asking about you in the morning."
Anna replied with an emotional smile,
" Of course, I will co. How can I miss the wedding of my little princess? Where is she anyways?"
Es replied taking a glimpse of upstairs,
" She is resting inside her room. She is exhausted after all this rituals. How about you et others in anti?"
Anna nodded compherensively and followed the lead of Es who was dragging her towards the way of Alexander. Ron kept staring at their retreating back unfathomably. The look on Anna's eyes changed a lot as if she was watching so distant relative. Her pure eyes didn't sparkle like before whenever she saw Ron. Sowhere in Ron's heart, her change affected his thoughts deeply. He wanted to know about their child and her but an unknown force was stopping him from taking the initiative.
What will he tell to his child when they et that he didn't want to accept his mother or he was trying to abort that child?
Their were pile of questions surging from its heart. A helpless sigh escaped through his lips and replaced with a bitter smile on his lips.
Still he should go for her at least to know how was she in all this years?
anwhile, Cedric scanned Frenchies's expression amusingly and grinned further to tease him. Frenchies growled at his comnt annoyingly and brushed past of him after mumbling,
" What nonsense! She was insulting ! Her damn attitude! "
Cedric chuckled at his response and replied with a teasing smile,
" Hmm! First stop of falling in love! Go ahead!"
Fortunately, Frenchies didn't hear him out and stord inside the crowd with a dark face. He sweared that soday he would take revenge on this shifter woman for sure! Such a daring oldie eagle!
The night grew deeper after the couple dance and everyone soon after started to leave one by one. So young couples insisted on staying and were having fun on their own. So even danced with their drunken state insanely caused series of laughter in the hallway.
Alexander walked out of the crowd with a cold drink in his hand and headed outside to cherish the friendly night. Standing on the corridor which was located in front of their garden, he sipped the drink slowly while looking up at the moon blankly. Images of Arthur and Elizabeth dancing were still evident in his heart that couldn't stop upsetting his heart.
As he sighed deeply to stable his unsettled emotions, a sweet voice suddenly ca from his side,
" Brother Alex, you are here! "
Alexander jerked snapping his head aside and saw Elizabeth standing with a different attire. This purple gown was a little revealing and showcased the deep curve between her breastline. Alexander coughed lightly and looked away from her before questioning coldly,
" What are you doing here?"
His tone erased the shy smile from Elizabeth's face who ca up to him with a heart of hope. Covering the sadness with a broad smile, Elizabeth answered with a cheering voice,
" Look at ! Ain't I look pretty now?"
Alexander gritted his teeth harder and shot her a side glance unhappily. Without looking at her gown, he scolded in a rude voice,
" Not much! Why did you change? Don't you see that there are so many boys around?"
Elizabeth forced a smile and replied back nervously,
" It's...just..I.. thought...Umm..Can you dance with now?"
Alexander was annoyed and irritated on her at the sa ti. He didn't want her to wear such revealing dress nor did he want to dance with her instead of Arthur. He suddenly clutched the glass tightly and sneered at her coldly,
" Why should I dance with you so that the audience can gossip about us? Is that what you want Elizabeth? Or you want to hear that the eldest prince is drooling on your beauty?"
The happiness on Elizabeth's face all faded away after his harsh words. Her pair of ruby lips trembled together painfully. She couldn't hold back her chokes anymore and started to blabber incoherently,
" I never wanted to wear such a dress. I just thought that I didn't look pretty enough to dance with you and that's why you refused to dance with . So I went for changing. I am such a fool! "
Elizabeth brust into tears and started to choke on her own saliva. Alexander froze after her words and wanted to coax her,reaching out for her arms,
" Elizabeth..I.. really... didn't a..."
Elizabeth swiftly dodged his touch and staggered backwards hastily. Wiping her tears off stubbornly, she replied shortly before running towards the opposite direction,
" I...I am truly sorry, brother Alex..I..I should have understood that a simple creature like doesn't worthy of becoming the dance partner of the crown prince.."
Alexander stared at her running back painfully. When she was out of his sight finally, a loud bang of crashing glass echoed in the empty corridor.
