The Grand Mistress

A deja vu.Looking at the large crowd of fans in from the theater's window reminded Feather of her last pre-wedding concierto. It ended badly but those days had gone by. Tonight, she felt more secure in Hawk's affection than she ever was and so it was just right that a week before their wedding, she had this concierto set.

Just a week more and she will be Mrs. Monsanto.

She didn't know what happened really but Hawk had been extra sincere and sensitive with her for the last few days. Perhaps it was his near death experience and their long separation when he left for the mountains that made him change. Perhaps his long solitude there woke him up from his foolishness and made a changed man. Whatever took place in those mountains then, she was grateful.

"Is everything ready?" Feather approached Ami who just entered the room. She went to check if Hawk was already there and her joyful smile answered the ballerina's question.

"Yep. Everything is set and your fiance is already here," Ami told her and jerked off happily to show the Han's heiress the bouquet of flowers she was hiding at her back. "Surprise, President Hawk had these sent for you,"

"Oh my God! He's so sweet," Feather was greatly pleased. She accepted the bouquet and sat on the sofa nearby to enjoy its beauty. "Oh Ami, I'm so happy. I'm soo happy I could cry,"

"Hush now Miss," Ami sat beside her. "Hush now, you don't want your makeup to be ruined,"

"The past few weeks have been so perfect. Me and Hawk were so in love," Feather couldn't help but tell it. Truth was, aside from Ami, Feather didn't have many friends in Devon City and so, as much as she wanted to brag about their love story, she had no one to talk to but Ami. "I should have invited my foreign friends over but the wedding had been moved to an earlier date and so I also had to move the pre-wedding concierto. Of course since they are all busy ballerina's too, they just choose to come to my wedding instead,"

"Oh Miss, you shouldn't worry about their absence," Ami comforted her. "Besides, I think you have a more special guest tonight,"

"And who do you mean?" Feather raised a brow at it. Aside from Hawk and a few of her relatives, the girl doesn't have much to expect so she wondered who Ami was talking about.

"I have heard that some international media person had been very interested in your love story so they are featuring it," Ami revealed. "I just heard Manager Rose talked to one of them downstairs,"

"What????" Feather panicked in a good way at this. "Are you sure?"

"Yes Miss!" Ami responded with assurance. "Didn't you always want to be featured in an international magazine? Well, it never happened in London but here it is now,"

Feather's face flushed a one hell of a big smile. Ever since she had always wanted to get featured in international media but her ballet career in London wasn't as grand to land her on one. Although she's a major hype in their country and Devon City, that was because she was the first ever ballerina to have been a part of Voltaire Ballet so the nation celebrated for her. However in the international arena, she wasn't that special to be treated like a queen. In fact, if not for major sponsors—who were revealed to be Don Benedicto and Hawk Monsanto, she would have never received solo performances in London.

Unlike Simione when she was young, Feather's entrance to Voltaire Ballet was brought by the previous efforts of the Mara Ballet Company to appease Don Benedicto's fury. It wasn't because she was chosen or that she was a rare talent like Simione, it was just all pure luck plus her schemes. However, in ballet, you can fake talent, so Feather's career didn't do well and all her popularity in Devon City was all thanks to the people's pride of having one of their citizens enter into the international theater arena.

"Omg! My friend will be vex and jealous if they hear this!" Feather imagined their faces. "Imagine I'm the first in our circle to gain such attention! Oh Ami! This is great news!"

"It is, Miss. So don't worry and just be great tonight," Ami told her so. "Tomorrow your face will flood the international arena!"

The two were overjoyed and they both giggled happily at it. However their celebration had to be cut short because the show was about to start and Feather had to go backstage already.

"Do your best Miss," Ami cheered for her. "Your fiancée is waiting and so is the international arena,"

"I sure will, Ami," Feather assured her confidently before she went to her usual corner to wait for her entry. The smile even then didn't evade her face. Finally her dreams were becoming real. The title Madam Monsanto will be hers as well as the international arena. It was her destiny. Her very own destiny!

***

Hawk was sitting comfortably at his box when the lights of the theater went off. He plans to enjoy the night and Feather's performance then. Afterall, it might be his last chance to see her dance. Hopefully, after he breaks off with her, her ballet career will continue as it should. 

Hawk gave her everything she demanded the previous weeks. It's a pity though she didn't know he had hidden intentions behind it but he really did mean to give her beautiful days before they part. Afterall, she was his childhood best friend and he made her the man he was right now. He owed Feather so much, but things between them had to end before any of them was going to break.

Hawk already planned a career for Feather and promised that even when they separate ways, she'll have a good life. Aside from a hefty amount of monetary compensation she will be receiving, Hawk still planned to support her ballet career after and promised to still look after her.. All the things he got now was because of her so she just deserves every inch of the things he planned to give her.
