Capítulo 16: Chapter 16

"I long to take your hands and dance into the night, forever, till the stars fall."

.

A soothing melody filled the ballroom, entrancing the guests. The music seemed to come alive, as it Mesmerized all the guests listening to it, some had their mind off from Headstone who had long knelt behind Valitis, whose fingers danced across the piano keys with effortless grace.

"You've given my people a home and saved my friend from the Starvoks' poison," Headstone pleaded, his voice filled with desperation. "Please, let us go."

Belladonna had stood there, confusion on her face, she shook her head and approached Headstone. Her hands on his shoulders, she urged, "If he's not ready to listen, let's leave." Her words, meant to soothe, instead fueled Headstone's anguish.
