Selena looked at Ezra with her usual elegant smile.
The gentle curve of her lips carried the same noble grace she had displayed throughout the evening. Beneath the warm ballroom lights, the emerald gems woven into her gown reflected soft rays of light, making her look almost ethereal among the sea of beautifully dressed students.
"We meet again, Ezra Ashenlocke."
Her voice was soft and refined.
Then, with the slightest hint of amusement hidden in her eyes, she added,
"Or... perhaps you don't remember me?"
Ezra met her gaze calmly.
"I remember you, Lady Selena Galehart."
He bowed slightly in greeting before raising his head again.
"Your performance during the auction event was beautiful."
The compliment came naturally.
There wasn't the slightest attempt to flatter her.
It was simply an honest observation.
Selena let out a light chuckle.
"Thank you."
