Canceled Duke'S Engagement With Contact Fiancee
Chapter 14 The first dance

The great feast held by the kingdom was so festive and lavish. All the nobles who were looking for relations and factions gathered in one room, to see a figure worthy of their cooperation, despite the purpose of this party to celebrate a prince's birthday party.

Asha and her friends were in the corner of the room, waiting for the opportunity to queue up to give gifts to the prince but unexpectedly the queue had been so long that they decided to take the last moments of the queue to give gifts to the royal prince. A few hours later, the queue did not go short.

"It's been hours gone,"

"Do you need sweet words just to give a gift? Does he not know that we are still waiting for this moment, too" said Grace with an annoyed look towards the queue that was the same length as at the beginning

"Well..."

"The name is also a political relation,"

"It's normal for them to say sweet words like that," said Ian with a soft head bobbing because he felt tired of the length of the event.

The five of them decided to eat the food that was at the party because they felt it would be like a fool if they were to wait for the long queue to be completed. After feeling that the queue was not long they lined up behind the few remaining people, Asha put herself behind because she did not know what to say, So she chose the last one to hand over the gift.

Seen now is Grace's turn then is the turn, Asha who almost never met the royal family since childhood uses various reasons just because lazy, of course trembling it feels when asked to face. But despite the trembling, he is currently an Edelstein who must be firm and elegant which makes him think of a variety of fun things in order to be more relaxed.

Not long after his name was called to come forward and give a gift, his honor well done but his trembling as his eyes fell upon the king and queen, he said, this made the gift he had to give almost fall to the floor but fortunately did not fall because it was caught by a man with glasses and a familiar voice.

"It's a good thing not to fall, yes" said the man with a gentle smile towards Asha who was looking straight at the man in front of her, this certainly made him surprised because the male figure he knew was near the seat of the king and queen

"Your majesty, you can't walk all of a sudden to catch a gift box" said one man next to her with a worried look

"Asha, it's been a long time since I met you" said the bespectacled man gently

"Edel, are you close to the daughter of the Duke family of Edelstein?" asked the queen with a curious look

"We were pretty close because we both met at the magic tower" the prince said with a smile towards Asha

Asha became thinking of his nature and the way he spoke during this time did not have manners, how could his head and family not be beheaded but that does not mean Asha felt ungrateful because of this situation. He only felt that this wasn't him being too arbitrary to one of the royal family members.

"Your majesty, it seems I have had enough to give you a greeting,"

"Can you let me go back to my friends?" asha said with a stiff smile because she wanted to quickly leave the situation she was in

"Before you go,"

Asha was seen in the eyes of both the royal owner and many eyes at the party, if she rejected him then he could be considered as a person who insulted the royal family. But if he accepts, he becomes unsettled with all the bad memories he did to the members of the royal family.

"Alright, I will accept it" said Asha who received a helping hand from the prince

Asha and the prince danced in the middle of the dance hall, which was able to make all the women feel jealous of Asha who could easily become the dance partner of a prince. And for all women it may be a once in a lifetime, because it is difficult to be able to dance with people who are prospective owners of this country.

Not far from the middle of the hall were seen the would-be heirs of their Duke family being shocked because Asha was close to a prince from the royal family, plus it was the prince who never showed his face in front of many people.

"I'll ask Asha later what his meeting with our royal prince should be like because it should be very, very difficult to meet,"

"I'm sure it can't be because Asha is the last person to give a gift because they talk looks like a-k"

"I think they're just friends,"

"I'm also sure he received the dance from the prince because of the formality, right Dain?" said Ian who immediately closed Grace's mouth because he felt that a dense killing aura was felt by him

The words from Ian were then answered with a nod of agreement by Dain, because he was quite familiar with the situation so hot. Especially if Grace is allowed to talk then this conversation will make the man even hotter.

"Asha, thank you for wanting to dance with me,"

"I hope our next meeting will make you more relaxed" said the prince with a longing gaze, who then kissed Asha's back hand because the dance song had finished

A familiar feeling that Asha felt to the man but she could not remember him other than the man's position as a magician tower master. After the dance ended Asha immediately met her friends who were not far from the location of her dance.

The curious Grace quickly asked everything without stopping like a journalist curious about the scandal of an artist. Dain and Ian tried to calm down the person who was displaying a murderous aura, fearing that it would be a feast filled with blood, especially if the person who will be killed by him is a prince who will become the ruler of the next kingdom.

"Ehan, why is your facial expression like that?"

"Are you sick? How about we now go to the royal garden to get some fresh air?" asked Asha with a worried look towards the real Ehan since earlier giving off an aura that wanted to kill, but after listening to Asha's words the man suddenly turned tame and very easy to talk to, then Asha and her friends went to the park.

"Asha, I will make sure this time you will be entitled to happiness,"
