Chapter 81: The Emperor's Birthday Ball (IV).

Elizabeth's POV

The fifth prince and I went on our way, I hid in a corner and saw him finding my cousin who was awfully anxious looking when he saw him with the wig on.

"P-Pardon me but um… I'm rather occupied at the moment.?" (Melrose) stutters, holding the side of her pink dress looking around for a place to run before Prince Nikosh chuckles introducing himself.

He bows and smiles introducing himself towards Melrose, "It's me Prince Nikosh- the ahem fake fiance."

"O-Oh! What are you doing here, aren't you supposed to be with my cousin?" (Melrose) shifts her head trying to look for me, I kept myself hidden and sighed in a breath of relief once she stopped.

"We decided to ditch each other for someone else, may I offer you a dance instead? I would love to get to know the person who made such a beautiful form of art for me even if it was all an arrangement. I admire your creativity."
