Crystal's POV:

The wire boy's performance drew widespread applause. My fingers were tightly curled around the armrests of my seat and I was scared out of my wits.

I instinctively turned to Rufus, who pressed his lips into a thin line and shot me a reassuring look.

I responded with a nod and turned my attention back to the stage.

The armless boy walked on the wire and did a dangerously exciting somersault at one end before making his way back up the wire. When he returned behind the curtain, I realized that the back of my shirt was soaked in cold sweat.

After the boy walked off the stage, my anxiously racing pulse slowly calmed down. Although he had been the one performing, I felt as if I had walked the wire myself and my heart was still thudding with nerves. The deafening applause around me made me feel uncomfortable, and I reflexively bent over.

As my seat was very close to the stage, I could sense his fear while he was performing.

I slightly narrowed my eyes to watch the next few performances.

The dark red curtains parted again, and a lion tamer with only one leg appeared on the stage with a lion.

It was a strange combination, and the lion tamer didn't have any crutches. After hopping twice, he regained his balance and stood beside the majestic golden-maned lion.
