Chapter 204

Chapter 204 A dance for the ages

A pathway separated immediately as William led Doris to the middle of the dance floor. Everyone moved off to the side to allow them their space. Doris stared forward and silently prayed that her face wasn’t as red as she felt. She tried not to think about the whole palace about to watch her dance—when she had no idea how to. “I’ve never danced before.” Doris whispered to him. She squeezed his arm tightly. “I don’t think this is a good idea, I’ll step on your feet. Perhaps we should go sit down, I’m getting rather dizzy anyway.” The side of his mouth lifted a little. “That’s the plan, you step on my feet.” “What” William stopped in the middle of the floor and she gasped when he pulled her against him.
