The Dragon Prince’s Forbidden Affair

I was in the city hanging out with Arma. We asked Stewart if he wanted to come along but he wasn’t interested. “Are you going to the ball Arma?” I asked.

“The only workers who are invited are ones who put a certain number of hours working on planning and setting everything up. Also, live-in workers but I don’t live here, and I fell short seven hours because I had to give one of my shifts away. My mom put together a surprise family day and she insisted that I give my hours away. If not for that I would have had enough to go.”

I felt bad and wished there was something I could do. I looked down at my phone and got a text from Cade: You have something waiting here for you. “I have something I need to get at the castle.”

Arma flew us back and I met cade in the front. He handed me a box with something attached. “A little late but there’s your invitation.” I should have expected to get my own since I was being announced as the new holder. Plus, I am a live-in worker.

“Do you have a plus one?” Arma asked.

I looked at the invitation. “I do, do you want to be my plus one?”

Arma smiled. “Yes, yes, yes.”

“I would have let you be my plus one,” Cade said. “I’m not bringing Vella since we broke up a week ago.”

Arma tried to not look happy. “Wow that sucks.”

Cade rolled his eyes. “I know that’s what you wanted.”

I opened the box as we walked and saw a beautiful slim long off the shoulder sapphire blue dress with a slit along the side from the knee down. “Cade did you get me this?”
