“Why should I?”
The question was raised by the soft voice of the beautiful Lady who could bewitch the other person through her shady eyes. In the middle of the music of The Second Waltz that has just been played by the orchestra, his voice still sounds clear and clear in the ears of his interlocutor. Just below the glittering Chandelier lights, hanging beautifully on the ceiling of the main palace ballroom, the, the opening couple was doing waltz—salah stau type of dance room (ballroom dance) and folk dance in beats ¾ performed in a closed position or closed position—looked to attract the attention of all invitations— witnessed by all invitations were present, not least Level IV Concubine.
“Therefore you,” replied King Robelia who still displays her usual facial features, namely flat. “In addition to Caecilia, you are the most suitable candidate to be the companion of the Imperial Sun.”
“Your Highness is too much,” her speech answer when they start to enter the core movement.
The Second Waltz's humming was still their escort when it started to enter the core. Waltz itself is one type of dance room (ballroom dance) and folk dance that is quite popular. The main basic movement of the waltz is a full rotation with two stages with three stages. As far as King Robelia can remember, there is no woman better at waltz dancing than the owner of the nickname “Dancing Queen”. After the owner of the nickname officially left Robelia, nothing else could replace her four.
However, today King Robelia finds almost the same flexibility in her former queen's old friend, Lady Cyrene Asterya d’Oclean. The lady who failed to marry twice due to internal problems that were not clearly known to the general public. The family of d’Oclean seems to be deliberately shutting down every reason that makes their daughter's wedding their pride.
Their daughter's age was enough to build a home. Moreover, since becoming a debutant, Cyrene Asterya d’Oclean is one of the most desirable Lady as a future wife in her time. When his two close friends were married, he still felt at home with the status of a single. Don't even mind if it's nicknamed “old virgin courtesy of d’Oclean”.
His unmarried status is still a conversation today, even though single men from aristocratic families have sent many marriage proposals. However, there has not been a single young man from an aristocratic family who was able to melt the fortress of the family's favorite daughter of D’Oclean.
“I'm not stupid like that woman,” said Lady Cyrene Asterya d’Oclean suddenly.
“Who do you mean?” reply King Robelia while increasing the intensity of closeness between them.
“Of course your women. How many women do you have now?”
The question managed to make Kaizen grin very thinly. “For now only one,” answer later. “I originally planned to revive the palace harem crowd. But, I realized that I was unable to collect too many women.”
Lady Cyrene Asterya d’Oclean looked at her interlocutor fixedly. “I know if you only love Kayena.”
“That's the truth.” Kaizen does not refuse. After all, he knows his interlocutors are good at looking at gestures.
“Since the beginning I have never been fooled, unlike the woman.”
“So, what do you want?” Kaizen asked back when the musical accompaniment of The Second Waltz began to reach the end. “Isn't it better if you consider my offer first? I cannot promise you the Queen's position. But, after giving birth to my offspring, that position is not something that you are impossible to have.”
“…”
“I don't just need a companion. However, I also need a potential mother-to-be for my future heir.”
Lady Cyrene Asterya d’Oclean looked indecisive in calmness. “You know who the man I love is? The man who kept me single all this time?”
This time Kaizen is clandestinely showing his smirk. “One of my right hands?”
“If you know, then why do you keep choosing me? My only wish is to marry him. Even if I have to let go of everything, I am willing.”
Kaizen looked at her interlocutor again. This time it was more clingy than the start they made eye contact. He did not even hesitate as he eroded the remaining distance between their faces. “Then I have found the answer.”
The sentence certainly makes Lady Cyrene Asterya d’Oclean confused. He could not refuse Kaizen's offer explicitly, because his father had given his name as the future companion of the Imperial Sun of Robelia. However, if the concerned party were to reject it themselves, it would be much better for Lady Cyrene Asterya d’Oclean.
“After this party is over, come with me. Your priest is currently definitely in pain*ng, having just downed an intermediate level poison.”
The calm built by Lady Cyrene Asterya d’Oclean was destroyed instantly and her body almost stopped dancing, even though they were already at the end. Fortunately Kaizen quickly reacted, so as to make his opponent regain control of the situation.
“What do you want to do?” ask the beautiful lady, beware.
“Trust me. I just want you to help me tonight.” Kaizen said while putting on a sincere smile.
That kind of smile is rarely shown. Even Lady Cyrene Asterya d’Oclean personally have also seen it several times, it was also pointed out to one person, namely Courtney from their beloved Pexley manor.
“Good. I Believe in You.”
Kaizen further lengthens the duration of her genuine smile. “Then close your eyes when The Second Waltz is done playing.”
Lady Cyrene Asterya d’Oclean seemed confused, but she still followed Kaizen's orders. When The Second Waltz finished playing, he closed his eyes as directed. Afterwards, he could hear the boisterous claps of the spectators. Simultaneously, he felt the breath of his interlocutor whack a part of his face. That means ... face distance between them is minimal.
Everyone who saw the second show was instantly stunned. The whispers began to sound after. As for the King's only woman who had been watching in the company of warning and jealousy, her legs were immediately taken away from the main palace ballroom. Seen once if he was fed up with the show that was spearheaded by his lover and an old friend of his ex-wife.
On his way out of the ballroom, he heard a woman standing not far from the entrance. From her position, the Lady was unaware of the presence of Katarina standing not far behind her.
“About how Consort Katarina feels, huh?”
“Entahlah. At first I thought that Consort Katarina would not agree if Her Majesty was looking for another woman.”
“Dont agree how? His Majesty the King has the right to carry out such an act. Especially if Consort Katarina is unable to give offspring to His Majesty.”
From where she stood, Katarina who captured the conversation clearly, successfully made a blackboard. Both of his hands were clenched.
“Suddenly I thought,” said one Lady. Reopening the conversation when Katarina was about to hit them. “What today Consort Katarina can feel what Queen Kayena feels when her husband prefers another woman over his wife?”
Katarina's steps suddenly faltered. Hearing the sentence glide free from the mouth of a Lady. In fact, there is still a continuation of that sentence.
“This is just a dance performance with a new escort candidate, not like Consort Katarina seizing and hogging Her Majesty. If Consort Katarina does not accept, does she feel she has the right to be angry? Queen Kayena who was born as a woman is almost perfect. Especially her who only rely on the body like courtesan.”
The courtesan? Katarina shouted in her heart. The term courtesan itself means a prostitute or classy lover who serves the upper class (noble)—source: manhwa Bastian.
“Wait and see. I will soon show you who the woman you just referred to as Courtesan,” Katarina said in her now-changing position. Instead of approaching, he chose to stay away from the gossiping Lady.
“Servant,” call Katarina when it has arrived outside the palace.
Shortly after, the servants in charge of serving came in a hurry. “Iya, Miss?”
“Prepare horse carriage. I will go somewhere,” Katarina said as she walked away from the ballroom of the main palace. Bringing with it a sense of disappointment, heartbreak, and hate that is getting swollen. “Today's humiliation will never be forgotten, Your Majesty.”
