Chapter Thirty-Six: Infestations and Conspiracies.
The Marquess fell silent then gazed at my frame, then to the ground.
-Why was it so important for Vivanna to ‘get over things??’ why couldn’t we just ignore things until they went away? I am not Vivanna, so I don’t have to deal with her memories. I am already stuck with her life! I clearly need to draw a line somewhere!-
“I’m sorry, I just…” The Marquess began breaking the silence.
“Can’t you just assume that I've let things go? I don’t want to go there. Ever!” I said, in a harsher tone than I had anticipated.
“I know, I'm sorry.” She placed her hand on mine. “But I just want you to know that if you do want to go ‘there’, I’ll be right here.”
-She…she isn’t listening to me.-
-Well, whatever. We probably won't meet again.-
“How long till the hypnotism wears off?” I asked Charlette, who was fa

“I'm done!” the young girl chirped startling both of us.“Beautiful!” the Marquess chirped a little too enthusiastically, disrupting the air of mystery that had formed around us.“I-,”The Marquess placed a finger on her lips.“That will give us something to discuss during the mascaraed ball, don’t you think?”-Son of a bitch!!--Still, maybe if we could find this mage…I can get to the bottom of what is responsible for my presence here and maybe find my way back home.-“Aunt Viva! Aunt Viva! How do I look?” the girl twirled, showcasing her beautifully done hair and dress.Her hair looked wonderful, her updo simple with her long white hair twirled at its ends. She had a golden necklace on that drew one’s gaze to her neck and diamond stud earrings, with a golden lining that glittered matching her dress, while the diamond her hair.-She is really

A few hours before the ball“Is..aak.” Vivanna moaned his name, as he felt her tight walls twitch around his hard shaft, and he couldn’t help but release himself into her as she cradled his neck in her arms, as though she was promising to shield him from the world, and he was lost.Wholly and utterly undone, enchanted by whatever sorcery she had used on him.Her body fell heavily against him, and a crippling sense of regret coiled its way up to his belly.

I sipped my newly refilled cool drink as I walked out of the dim hallway.“My lady,” Vincent called.He was the first person I spotted in the busy ballroom filled with mingling couples, but perhaps that was because he stood close to the hallway that I was set to emerge from.I know that that was just a minor detail, but I found myself smiling at him, it felt nice having a knight or rather, to have someone wait on me.I couldn’t tell if it was the wine that had elevated my mood or the lively conversation; either way, the first thing I did was tease him.“You said to only stay away from Bryant and Dominic, you never mentioned that you were incapable of handling the Marquis,” I said, crossing my arms playfully over the fabric of my dress.The feel of the smooth fabric rubbing against my skin exhilarated me, because, with every movement, the dress clung to my curves, reminding me of fun nights out

When the room had settled, and there were fewer eyes on us, Vincent and I began our inconspicuous shuffle to the end of the hall. There was an isolated spot that led to an even more isolated and well-lit balcony.“There,” I whispered to him, pointing the lucky balcony and we began marching towards it. Vincent lifted the heavy black curtains with cursive golden patterns that covered the glass balcony door for the both of us and as soon as he did, the bright balcony light exposed our position, due to the differences in lighting in the two rooms. Still, it was only for a brief second as we snuck out into the cold night.

The night’s silence was palpable, and I understood fully, under the golden warmth of the lit torches on the balcony, that Vincent would not answer my question, or rather couldn’t. The conversation had been so onesided that I almost felt stupid for having tried to explain myself to him. Now, anytime someone questions my line of thought, I can just blame it on drugs. But…like most things, I will deal with the sting later. I Inhaled deeply, then closed my eyes to try and still my racing mind, but the lump in my throat did not lessen. I cleared my throat, but still, it did not waver, nor did the flood of thoughts cloudin

Elizabeth’s gaze met mine easily, I mean, I was the only person left standing, and then she winked at me, to which I responded by bowing my head quickly in a fancy and exaggerated manner. Vincent suddenly squeezed the hand that he had let go of earlier, before the bowing, and I had almost turned to face him when a man dressed in black appeared beside me, startling me, then he whispered in a low tone.“My lady.” The man bowed then presented a golden fan that matched well with my gloves. “From the Marquess.”

“At what point do you think we should leave the ball?” Vincent asked as the room’s buzz resumed.“I was hoping t-,”“Your Grace!” A young dark-haired boy in a formal suit, with a large red gem encrusted on what looked like a scarf, tucked into his topcoat, yelled as he approached me with a broad smile on his face. He stopped aggressively only a few inches from my space then bowed quickly and then reached out to take my hand, but Vincent pushed his way to stand before me. &ldq
