Chapter 3
Afterwards, I was escorted to my room, to change into something dressy for the evening ball. I chose a stunning blue gown, and strung a light silver chain around my neck. It glimmered in the light.
I slipped on my shoes and headed down to the ballroom. As I drifted down the lobby stairs, many heads turned towards me and my glamorous gown.
"Care to dance?" said a voice to my far right. It was Endymion, of course.
"I do," I said, smiling. I walked down the flight of stairs. Endymion extended his hand, which was wrapped in a fine white glove. I took it, and we started into a slow waltz. I noticed he was wearing a stunning black tuxedo, a small royal badge pinned to his lapel. We watched as the crowd formed a circle around us.
"Selene," he said, "you look stunning. Did I say that already?"
"Yes, I think you did. Thank you."
I kept with the flow of the music, but almost tripped over my dress. I caught myself just in time for Endymion to lower me into a dip. Lomg after the music stopped, we danced. I suddenly realized everyone was still watching, and has a klutz moment.
I stopped dancing, and stared at one woman in particular in the crowd. Endymion had gotten into the movement, and he didn't realize I had stopped. He waltzed into me, fell over, and ripped his tuxedo. I still stood there, gaping at this one woman in the audience.
Endymion got up, groaned, and tapped me on the shoulder.
"Um.maybe you should do something?"
I blushed.
"Um.sure."
"I walked over to the musicians table, picked up a harp, and began to play an old kingdom melody. I wove my magic into the notes. Soon enough, everyone in the room was fast asleep, even Endymion. His tuxedo had self- repaired. I walked over and slapped him in the face jokingly.
"Wake up, sleepyhead!"
He awoke with a start, got up, and dusted off his tuxedo.
"Sorry about that Selene.so.where were we?"
He pulled me into a dip on the dance floor, and then kissed me softly on the lips.
"Endymion." I began.
"What, my princess."
"Hold me."
He pulled me up, and into his arms. It was the first time I had ever loved a man, in my entire life.
"Selene, I love you."
"I love you, too, my handsome prince."
