tonight , francesca felt like the belle of the ball . she had found herself feeling as though she was an outsider looking in at her first ever ball but she slowly found herself , finding her place amongst the masked ladies and gentlemen of the ton . with the pale pink mask hiding a large part of her face , it somehow emboldened the young bridgerton to be less reserved and to allow her to come out of her shell a little bit more . she found herself openly and bashfully smiling at strange , masked men and in turn , found herself interacting with other debutantes . biding her dance partner a bow , the strawberry blonde woman exited the dance floor and made her way gracefully towards the refreshment table , pouring herself a glass of lemonade . turning her back to the table with her glass in her hand , frannie startled slightly upon coming face to face with the familiar but masked male . she knew it was michael without needing to hear his voice , she would know those enchanting eyes anywhere . “ mr sterling , “ her tone soft as she bowed her in greeting , “ have you just arrived ? i did not see you before . “

francesca found herself emboldened when it came to michael sterling ; he brought out a certain confidence within her that she had not been aware of . adjusting her dress , the strawberry blonde readjusted her position until she found herself straddling the older male . " i do hope to continue to surprise you , mr sterling , " frannie hummed softly before kissing michael once again . there was something so intoxicating about his kiss , she needed more yet it was never enough .

❝ you're really hypnotizing me by your beauty. ❞

" i am certain you say those words to all the young ladies of the ton that you associate yourself with , " she jested , a teasing glint danced in her cornflower blue hues ; however , a soft blush begun to edge onto her cheeks .

" well , if it isn't the merry rake , " the prussian princess grinned slightly as dark hues observed the male close by . she had heard rumours even back in prussia of the scottish male's reputation and alexandra could not help but curious . " i was sorely disappointed not to see a mention of you in lady whistledown . behaving yourself ? "

the last person she had been expecting to essentially run into was michael . the moment her body collided with his as she turned around , frannie did not have to hear his voice to know it was him . " mr sterling , " she greeted shyly , a blush coating her cheeks as she glanced upwards at him . the indecent things he had done to her in the hallway the night before immediately entered her mind . " i was not expecting to see you today . "

flirting had never been frannie’s strong suit ; actually , that was not the complete truth . the strawberry blonde had never had the practice of flirting . after all , michael was probably one of the first males she had conversed with alone without the ever present shadow of one of her older brothers . however , she could not deny the pull she felt towards the older male , a pull she was uncertain of . francesca had already been cautioned by colin in regard to michael’s reputation but he had been charming and kind to her . maybe she was foolish in believing he may be treating her differently than he did with other women but it did not stop her from gazing her blue eyes up at the other . “ i would not know where to start . “ her words soft . “ where do you believe i should start ? “
