It appeared that the King had some issues with Cass and his family getting all of the attention. Made sense. After all, he had been riding off the high of being King for so long that he thought he could get away with anything up until this point.
Having someone else take all of that attention from him?
That wasn't going to fly.
So as soon as he realised what was going on, he did something to draw attention away from Cass at the very least. Or he tried.
The King asked for his Aunt's hand for a dance. Something he hadn't even done with the Queen at any of the balls previously. He usually had his son dance with his wife in place of him and his wife dancing. It was an incredible thing to offer since no one was happy with it.
