The ball/first meeting

.......

Hello Beginning.....

*The grand ballroom shimmered with candlelight, the scent of roses and polished oak thick in the air. Laughter and music swirled around

*he was searching for a new lady to ruin tonight and flirting with them with his eyes, gestures, smirks as usual but then....a pause*

*Callen Everhart* eyes only on one person right now

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

💭hmmm?....

Annabelle blackwood

*stood near the balcony, posture stiff with the weight of family’s name, the duke's firstborn, a dutiful eldest daughter bound to propriety.

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

*stealing glances*

💭never seen this one before....

Annabelle blackwood

💭hmm...nice bossoms....more generous than all these flat pale plastic dolls...never seen one that big... probably wouldn't fit in my hands

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

*glances at her face and breathe hitched for a second... unnoticeable..*

💭..Damn...beautiful....under does brown eyes there's something....or is it only me...He saw her....saw the steel beneath the silk, the burden of responsibility that kept her chin high and her words measured. She barely spoke, just cold guarded eyes but if you look closely.....

💭aghhh wait why am I thinking in such a poetical way....eww... whatever I'm bored...let's get back to looking for a new doll to fuck

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

*continues scanning but his eyes keep glancing back at her*

soon I walk up to her without thinking....because I never think before doing anything....too stressful...i was just drawn to her, despite the certainty that she would meet me with nothing but cool indifference. A smirk tugged at my lips as i approached, love a challenge, brushing past whispering nobles who would surely disapprove.

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

*now standing behind her, he leans down slightly and said into her ears*

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

If I ask you to dance, will you pretend not to hear me, or will you simply walk away? *little smirk tugging at the edge of his lips while his hot breathe fanned her ear and neck*

💭i expected neither an answer nor permission. But I....prince Callen had never been one to let expectations stop me

But then she spoke....

Annabelle blackwood

I would rather pretend not to hear you....

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

💭oh shit.....my chest aches...but in a way I love....

Her tone cold, serious but will undeniably be hot if she moans or says my name....

my smirk only widened—*challenged* just what I love. Without missing a beat, i stepped closer, close enough that the heat of my body cut through the cool air between us. The orchestra swelled into a waltz, violins humming like secrets. And then—i did it.

I reached for her hand. Not asking. *Taking.* Like I always do...

💭Before she could stiffen or protest (because surely she would), i spun her gently but firmly towards myself and slid my other arm around her waist(💭soft)with effortless grace—the same one that had stolen hearts across three balls this season.

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

You’re dancing....*I declared softly against her ear as the first steps or should I say my first step began to carry us both across marble floors*.... Pretending not to hear doesn’t work when I’m already holding on

Annabelle blackwood

You are lucky we are being watched or else I would have broken your arms....

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

*laughs...a rich unbothered sound*

It drew stares from nearby guests but who cares...callen..nah definitely not but Anna... definitely...jaw clenched and feeling like punching him

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

Oh you'd break my arms

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

*spins her with effortless flair *

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

Ok love....keep threatening me...

Her short plush full-figured frame rising slightly as I lifted her slightly, just enough to make her heart stutter

Annabelle blackwood

💭😶

Annabelle blackwood

*outside looking normal but inside she's a bit flustered...not that she'll show*

Annabelle blackwood

💭 fucking bastard...

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

*then spoke more intimately and With his sinful tone*....I love when you threaten me....makes me hard....

Annabelle blackwood

Fucking pervert...

💭The music softened into a dreamy melody, the kind that made couples sway closer—*too close*—and I didn't miss the chance Pulls her in gently, body aligning with hers and our hips brushed. The space between us vanished. her plump frame pressed against my lean, athletic build

The contrast undeniable: him all sharp edges and princely poise; her warm curves and bold defiance. His fingers trailed slightly along her back beneath the fabric of her gown—not improperly (he knew better than to touch *there* publicly), but just enough to make warmth bloom across her skin.

Around them? Silence had fallen over clusters of nobles pretending not to stare. Dukes cleared throats. Ladies fanned themselves faster than usual. A prince *dancing*. A prince *holding someone like this*. And it wasn't one of their polished debutantes... It was **her**.

Annabelle blackwood

....your fucking highness that's enough...let me go..or else-

Callen Everhart(youngest prince)

You're mad sexy when you're threatening me

Annabelle blackwood

💭that's it....

Annabelle blackwood

*when it was time to spin, used the opportunity to quickly leave but not before stepping his foot with my heels then I flee to the balcony...only private spot I know in the ball*
