He pulled away
"W-Well I um-"
Then footsteps started to get close to the door and she stopped immediately.
"Hide! In my closet, now !!"
She ran over to her vanity, faking like she was doing her makeup.
"HF-"
He flickered out of existence again, leaving nothing but the warmth and the baking bread smell behind
her mom then opened her door.
"Esoria, the ball is starting now so lets go."
Her voice was cold and dim.
"C-Coming mother.."
She then bolted up, standing up stiff. She then started walking towards the door as her mother started walking back into the ballroom.
He whispered-they couldn't hear him-
"Woah...scary-"
She then frowned as she clutched her hands together, she then followed after her mother, her tiara shined before she closed the door.
"........"
He quietly followed after
"M-Mom..do we really have to do this...?"
M:"It's the best decision for you and the kingdom, plus you just turned 18 and you're pretty, someone would love to have you."
Even though she said the last part which sounded sweet her voice was still dead and cold.
"to himself W-What does she mean by that....?"
"But I just turned 18 mom.."
M:"Esoria Waleen Keownion, I don't want to here it. It's a tradition. Therefore I do not want to talk about it."
Her heels clicked louder and Esoria looked down, staring down at her feet before responding in almost a whisper.
"Yes mother."
