Chapter 24 - The date under the moonlight (part 2)

Zoemi lost the opportunity and he was not at all happy or relieved that it passed right by him – but he was also a trained attendant, so he did not scowl in bitter disappointment and just took a few... a lot of deep breathes before his shadow enchantment faded and he could approach Miriette in a casual manner.

As for the girl unaware about how close her dreams were about to come true...

She looked stunning.

The dress was adding charm to her slender figure and soft green slippers were finishing the attire.

Then came the hairstyle - after the long debate it was decided that Miriette's short hair will be combed to one side of the head and a green bow will be attached to the other.

"Don't you think it's an overkill?"

Miriette looked at her reflection in the mirror, very much unconvinced.

"My lady, you look stunning!"

"...! I... I see. Good."

Though the look was Zoemi's personal preference, his compliment was the greatest prize for Miriette.
