To Find Peace (1×1 w/ Mr.Aznable)

[Mr.Aznable]

She smiles and gives her the coin, wiping a few tears away.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"Let get the dress set in a box and you can take it home." She said.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"Thank you.. I'll have to hide this.." she laughed a bit.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"I understand.." She said, "I'm so excited...I can't wait to meet the baron.."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"I can't wait another moment.." she smiled.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

It felt like the blink of an eye when the night finally came. As Roberts promised, Ethan was stuck at work, leaving Liona free to do as she pleased.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

Her heart was pounding as she slipped into her new dress and slippers, and went to meet Roberts.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

When he saw her, his jaw fell open, "Gods above.." He muttered.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She hid her face by tucking some har behind her ear. "Roberts, please.. I can't look that good.."

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"You look so beautiful.." He said gently before offering his arm to her, "Shall we?"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She nods and moves to take his arm. Her heart was racing.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He took her up the path to the palace, where the doors were opened warmly to allow all entry. It was more beautiful than she had ever imagined. Gold and silver fabrics decorated the marble pillars and delicately carved stone walls. There was an orchestra amd food and drink and there was more laughter filling the space than she ever thought possible.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She was entranced, and thankfully, she looked alive. The bruises had healed, and there was even a hint of joy in her eyes.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

Roberts pat her hand and smiled, "Go on. You don't need me following you all night." He told her.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She looked and smiled, kissing his cheek again before leaving to dance. He couldn't remember if he'd ever seen her this happy.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He smiled softly, glad to see her so happy.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She moved out to the floor, standing on the inner edge of the dance floor, just waiting for a dance.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

Across the dance floor she spotted a man she had never seen before. He was tall and broad shouldered, he was lean but with the perfect amount of muscle to him that made him look perfectly toned. His hair was almost white, pulled into a long ponytail that draped over his shoulder. He wore a velvet aquamarine coat tail and black trousers with fine boots. His eyes were a gentle pale color. And he was looking right at her.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She looked and caught his eye, her face now a brighter red than her hair. It was pulled into a high bun, a few rebellious strands falling down to frame her face. Her eyes were a pale green, cheeks pocked with light freckles. She was a bit thin, but a perfect figure.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He bowed his head politely to her, a small smirk on his face. He was so...charming.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She was almost physically drawn to him. She curtsied a bit, her face still flushed

 

[PoisonousIvee]

When the song ended and the new one began to start up, he crossed the floor gracefully and offered her his gloved hand.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She blushed darkly and moved to take his hand.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He pulled her to the floor and placed his hand on the small of her back gently while he kept hold of her hand, holding her just close enough before dancing with her.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

Her heart was racing, and she moved perfectly with him.
