章 62: sharing a pie

once I walked back into my room, I laid there to stop myself from thinking so much... No, everything was just a deception. I won't fall dor it ever again.

"You should continue to wear your mask, lady Elizabeth." I asked the girl, once she gave her hand to me.

She bit her lip but nodded. Wearing her mask, she gave her hand again and we walked towards the centre.

Charles gave me an amused smile, which I ignored as we danced.

Though it was only my second dance, my feet matched hers perfectly, as we waltzed on the tune.

There was a subtle smile on my face, but her eyes were looking around, which made me curious.

"Are you looking for something my lady?" I asked as her eyes were not settled.

She bit her lip and shook her head, but it was clear that she was lying. But I didn't press the matter.
