Reborn Before My Captain Fiancé’s Beloved Dies In A Plane Crash Chapter 32
I didn’t fly back for Leo’s wedding.
I sent a gift and stayed in Europe to prepare for Beacon’s first charity performance.
Every dancer in the show had suffered a devastating injury.
Some had lost a leg.
Some could no longer hear, dancing by following the vibrations through the floor.
I choreographed the entire performance.
Before the show, the director asked me, “Are you sure you don’t want to go onstage?”
I looked down at my leg.
“I am.”
I could no longer perform the difficult moves of my past.
But when the lights came up, I still held the barre and walked to center stage, one step at a time.
The audience was utterly silent.
The music began.
I raised my arm and took the opening position I had known best at sixteen.
My body still remembered.
The pain was still there.
But this dance was no longer for a competition.
It wasn’t to make Archer look back.
And it certainly wasn’t to prove I was better than Chloe.
It belonged only to me.
When the final note faded, the entire audience rose to their feet.
I didn’t cry.
I only bowed deeply.
