Summary
“Hello, birdie. May I have this dance?”
The king's hand was politely outstretched towards Grian as he stooped into a subtle bow. Grian blinked at him, in stunned silence, as he tried to register what was going on. His mind draws blank. The demeaning nickname pounds over his head, like the man is trying to taunt him, to say, I am so much better than you. The noise around him seemed to quiet down at the sight of Scar in front of him, asking for a dance. Oh, he hadn’t responded yet, “of course,” he says, keeping his voice smooth as he hesitantly accepted the King's hand.
Scar gives him a bright smile and tugs him through the crowd towards the middle of the dance floor, where couples slide across the dance floor.
...
“Walk with me,” he said. He grasped Grians’ hand tightly and led him away from the crowd and onto a private balcony...
The moon shone brightly above them. A cloudless night sky and sparkling stars filled their view. Mountains stretched far into the distance, and the lake below sparkled with the moonlight. Grian had let go of the other's hand, the king's hand… a dead man's hand, and rested his arms on the railing as he closed his eyes and let the cool midnight air ruffle his feathers.
