    "You're welcome, Princess," King Kyran said pleasantly. He had enjoyed the walk with Alix. Though, to be fair, he enjoyed most things with her. It had taken some time for Alix to adjust, but he found her to be a warm, kind soul. She was also fierce but the King knew that there was a sweet side to her, which was something he hoped to dig into more. But, he could tell that she was still holding back a bit. Understandable, but he wished that wasn't there.

    His head tilted slightly to the side as Alix moved up onto her toes. Though, as she pressed a kiss to his cheek, a large smile moved along the King's face. Now that certainly was not something that he was expecting, but it was greatly welcomed. Alix rushed off before he was able to do anything, but that was okay. Now he just had time to dwell in the fact that Alix was beginning to warm up to him. And, maybe, the King could move things along a little now. Slowly, he turned and started to make his way towards his room in total bliss.
    It was now late enough into the day that the merchant area was closed. Though, even now that the streets were mostly empty, guards were walking through the area, trying to ensure that things were kept safe and that no thieves would pop their ugly heads. Some of the shops even had their own private guards protecting the area. As for Bosian's store, it was two stories, which meant that while the man was successful, he was more of an average merchant. Even so, there were two guards standing outside of his store. Unusually for a store like this, which meant something valuable must be inside.

    It was the first time that Alix actually walked through the city that surrounded the castle. It was quite marvelous to her, as well as scary. So many different types of buildings line the streets. Some colorful, some plain, some had beautiful glass windows instead of normal ones. The place had a vast culture, and now Alix could see why Kyran really wanted her to study.

    Looking up at the sign's on top of the shops, it took Alix an embarrassing amount of time to read them. Not as quick as her normal language, but a couple of seconds delay. As her reading and writing levels of this world aren't top quality yet. Although, Alix was quite proud of herself for being able to read some of the books here recently. Granted, they were young adult books, but still. It was something.

    Most of the shops that Alix past seemed to be closed for the night. That was a given as it was getting late. An yet, as Alix neared a rather decent looking shop, she could still make out the open sign above the door. Bosian's shop seemed to be one of the last to close and that seemed to work to Alix's advantage. The man would want to rush Alix out, as well as any other occupants. At least, that's what Alix was thinking until she walked towards the shop. One of the guards moved to stand in her way. "Apologies, but the shop is closing." The guard told her, one hand resting on the man's sword in case she was going to cause trouble.

    In any other instance, Alix would have just walked away since the place was closed. But, it didn't seem like the spell that Alix was under would permit that. "You dare refuse a royal?" Alix asked quietly as she raised her head since it was lowered to hide her face. Her hand moving to flash the royal insignia on a necklace that Kyran had gifted her when she first came here. A sign that she was under his protection and to let the servants in the castle know to respect her.

    The guard seemed to stiffen, he then glanced at the other guard for a moment before they both nodded their heads. "M-my apology." The guard mumbled, then stepped aside for Alix. That brought a small smirk to form on Alix's lips as she pulled the hood down more on her face and walked into the soon to be closed shop.

    At this point in the evening, there were no more customers in the shop. Only two men were inside, closing it down for the night. One man was cleaning the floors and dusting using his magic. Any dirt, grime and etc was floating into the air, forming a tight ball before making it's way towards the trash. This man, had light pink hair, dark blue eyes, and a chiseled jaw. Though, he was also quite young, only being 15 at most. As he looked up to see Alix coming into the shop, the teen stiffened up, his spell faltering for a moment as the dust started to fall to the ground before suddenly stopping and floating just above it before going back to collecting itself once again.

    He looked off towards the older man in the shop. This man was over by the counter, counting the money that had been made for the day. He was balding but had still had some black hair. His nose was rather large for his face, making it harder to see his dazzling purple eyes. Though this man was quite fit and rather handsome. His clothes, unlike the young teen's, was made of finer material and laid on his muscular body quite nicely. "Bosian!" The teen called out before motioning his head towards Alix.

    The man called Bosian raised his head, glancing over to see that Alix was walking into the shop. A polite, quite charming smile came over his face before he set the money down on the counter. Once it was released from his hands, it all quickly flew itself under the counter and was quickly followed by a loud metal sounding door closing and locking. "Good evening, my lady," Bosian said warmly as he approached Alix. "Thank you for visiting my shop, but it is now closed for the day. However, please come by tomorrow and I will personally assist you with anything that you need. We open when the first moon comes over the horizon and close once the sun is setting."

    Listening to the words that escaped from Boisen's lips brought a small frown to appear on Alix's lips. This was her only chance to get that dagger that her master, Sir Lasfanda desired. If she didn't get the dagger tonight, then she'd be forced to find another way to sneak into the town. The guards out front already saw her necklace, so surely there would be rumors of a royal walking around the city starting up.

    So, with some quick thinking. Alix's lips dipped into a deep frown. "Unfortunately Sir, I won't be able to make it here tomorrow." Alix's voice was quiet and soft. Seeming quite dainty in the way she spoke. Her shoulders sagged slightly as if she was exhausted. "I might not survive the night, and this is the only place that I was hold had-" Alix paused, even adding a bit of fidgeting as if she was nervous to say the words. "Protection items." She shifted in her spot.

    "For you see Sir, I have lost my bodyguards to unfortunate events in the Castle, and I fear that I am next. Please, you must help me." Alix raised her head towards the older man, allowing him to see her face under the hood. The royal necklace on full display for him to see. "I can pay you, Sir, please. I beg of you, please help." Her bottom lip quivered slightly, adding to her scared appearance.

    Once the woman revealed the royal necklace that hung around her neck, Bosian was quick to motion to the boy to continue on with his cleaning. "Yes, my shop is open for you anytime, princess." He said as he offered her a quick bow. It wasn't difficult to figure out who the woman was based on the necklace. There was only one female royal of this country and it was the fiancee to the King. He would do whatever it took as long as the price was right.

    Bosian motioned for Alix to follow him towards the back of the shop, walking past all of the shelves as they did so. Soon enough, he was at the back of the store and opened up a door for Alix, allowing her to walk through first before he followed in behind her and closed the door. The room itself was brightly lit and filled with different and unique items. But they also were all covered with protective spells and under lock and key.

    After pulling out a comfortable looking chair for the princess, the man started to glance around, looking for a couple of options to show the princess. With a small hum, he opened a drawer and a glass case, pulling out two different items and setting them down on the table. Though, as he opened the drawer, the hilt of the sword was seen for a moment before he closed it back and turned to the princess.

    "I do have a few items that would help you with protection," Bosian said before he lifted up a gold, shimmering ring and showed her. "This ring can protect you from almost any kind of magical attack. I will cause the spells to bounce right off so there will be no need to fear of a magical attack. However, if your concerns are of a physical nature," Bosian held up an emerald looking jeweled necklace. "This necklace will produce three shadow warriors to protect you. Their swords will cut down your enemies and they themselves will not be able to be hurt by normal weapons."

    He glanced over Alix's face, trying to figure out if she had interest in either of them.

    It was practically child's play with how easy it was to get Bosian to allow her to look at the weapons. The old fool didn't know a lie if it bit him in the ass it seemed. The whole thing was almost enough to cause Alix to want to smirk and laugh at the idiocy of this shop keeper. She didn't though. No, she kept herself stoic and dignified once he agreed to help her.

    "Thank you," Alix said quietly, offering a small almost sad smile to the store owner. Still playing the scared little princess card that she sold him. Her hands crossed in front of her as she followed after Bosian. Remembering one of her lessons, and standing tall as she walked. Pretending to be indifferent to everything, even though she was amazed by everything in the store. It looked like a normal store, but even Alix could tell that this man had some special things for sale, and she wasn't even looking at the weapons yet!

    When they did enter the room that held the things that were quite deadly, Alix couldn't help it. Her eyes sparkled a little at the sight at all of the rare magical weapons. Swords, daggers, jewelry that all looked simple to the naked eye. This store was a gold mine, and there was no drought that she'd be relaying that to her Master.

    Taking the seat that was offered to her, Alix crossed her ankles as she sat back. Her hands resting lightly in her lap. Emerald eyes watched Bosian's every move as he walked around the small room. Watching every move he made, seeing what drawers he opened, or how he moved his hand if he did something to undo a spell or something like that. Alix was beginning to lose hope of getting to find the dagger so easily when something gold and shiny caught her eye. The spell that Alix was under alerted her, telling her that she had just seen her objective.

    Sitting up straight when Bosien turned towards her, Alix sat quietly and listened to the older man. Nodding her head ever so slightly as she paid attention to him. Her lips slowly moving more and more into a thin line before they were fully pursed. Looking up at the shop keeper, her lips edge tilted down and a look of worry appeared on her lips. "Sir, I can't use magic," Alix said quietly, which was the most important thing needed to be able to use ANY sort of magical weapon. "Do you have something, that doesn't require magic?" She asked quietly, tilting her head to the side.

    A frown came over the merchant's face as the princess revealed that she wouldn't be able to use any magical objects. It wasn't like he didn't have a few things that would assist her but it certainly wouldn't be to the same extent as one of the magical items. He was quiet for a long moment, thinking about what he could possibly pull out to show the princess that would still be helpful to her situation.

    Eventually, the man let out a sigh as he lifted his head back up to look at her. "I am afraid that I wouldn't have anything of the magnitude of these items if you are unable to use any magic. I do have nonmagical weapons, would you know how to use a sword or anything of that nature, princess?" Bosian asked, tilting his head to the side.

    "I do have some items that have magic but do not require the user to use it at all, things that cause the blade to be shaper or do more damage to your opponent. But nothing back here, but in the front of my shop." He was quiet for a moment longer before continuing. "Would you have a single guard that can use magic to protect you? Perhaps they could benefit from some of these magical items in order to protect you."

    What she was hearing from Bosian caused Alix to purse her lips. She wasn't the least bit happy with how this was going. She was hoping that this would be a quick in and out sort of deal. She could come in, play her cards and walk out with that dagger for her Master, but. It seemed that this man really didn't want to offer her anything dangerous.

    "I've seen the knights practicing with swords and daggers in the training area. So I should be able to get the gist of it." Alix explained to Bosian. Then, she let out a small sigh. "Anything that could protect me is worth look at Sir. Thank you." Alix slowly stood from her chair and turned towards the man.

    "If I trusted my guards, do you think I would have come here alone?" Alix asked, crossing her arms over her chest. Her body turned towards the side slightly, her gaze looking downwards. Allowing Bosian to see the picturesque of a worried girl. "There's been a few odd deaths in the castle Bosian. I can't let my life be protected by a magic-user when they're being hunted like animals in the walls that I live." Alix shivered at the made-up story. "His Majesty is trying to keep the information from leaking, but I still heard. Please, sir." Alix said quietly as she looked towards Bosian. "Please, I need something I can use myself."

    The dagger that she needed was in the damn drawer in front of her. Alix needed Bosian to leave the room so she could snatch it. She needed it, or all of this lying and sneaking around would be for nothing.

    Bosian was quiet for a long while after listening to the princess. He understood that she was in a dire situation but he did not know what else he could offer her. Any magical item that he had that could protect her was no use for someone who had zero magical ability. Slowly, his head turned to the side and he rubbed his forehead, taking a moment to think harder. Was there anything that could help the princess outside of his normal wears.

    After a few long moments had passed, Bosian let out a disappointed sigh. "I am sorry, my princess but I am afraid that I do not have anything outside of my normal wears that would be able to protect you. I would be happy to show them to you, but they are just ordinary weapons. I do not know what you fight so I can't promise that it would be enough for your highness." Bosian slowly rose to his feet.

    "We should look at them and perhaps you can buy something for now? I can contact some of the other merchants on your behalf to see if they have anything particularly extraordinary that uses no magic from the user themselves. I won't tell me that it is for you if you wish it. I can even bring anything I find to the palace for you as well." Bosian took a moment to look back at his specialty wears before shaking his head a bit.

    He then offered Alix his arm to lead her out of the room. "Let's take a look to find you something temporary, your highness."

    A small smile played along Alix's lips as she listened to Bosian. It was nice that he was putting in so much effort to help her. In any other situation, she would of been over joyed that he was helping her with finding a weapon. Alas, this wasn't a normal situation, and she needed that dagger he refuses to show her. At any cost.

    "Yes, thank you Sir Bosian," Alix said quietly. A small smile playing along her lips as she slowly stood from her seat and accepted his extended arm. "I appreciate all that you are doing for me, Sir Bosian. I'm sorry for being so difficult." She apologized, her lips slipping into a small frown to add emphasize that she really was sorry for being so difficult. "Especially with it being so late."

    Following the shop keeper out of the room that housed all of the special weapons, Alix could feel her head start to throb. The spell she was under, going a little haywire inside of her as it screamed at her to grab that dagger. That she needed it, that she would be punished severely if she did not grab it for Lasfanda. He needs that dagger, and he needs it now. She couldn't miss her chance, she needs to grab it now.

    So, as soon as the duo exited the room. Alix cast a quick look around, looking for anything. Anything at all that could prove to help her in achieving her goal of taking the dagger. Then, as Bosian turned to close the door behind them, Alix reacted. She grabbed the nearest weapon, which for her actually turned out to be some sort of urn. She didn't know if it had any sort of magical properties to it, but it sure was pretty. With its a golden color, with accents of silver swirls that seemed to swirl around it till it wrapped around the top.

    Swinging the urn at a fast speed, one that Alix wouldn't be able to do on her own, and hit Bosian in the back of the head. Knocking the man over. "My apologies Bosian, but the dagger of Yaslone is more important to me than your life." Alix murmured, the green of the spell shining completely, swirls of magic twirling as it commanded the Princess's actions and thoughts. Raising the urn once more, Alix brought it down on Bosian's head again before dropping it to the side as she walked into the room that they had just exited. Without so much as thinking about getting caught, Alix walked towards the hiding spot of the Yaslone and retrieved it from it's hiding spot.

    "Pleasure doing business with you, Sir Bosian," Alix said with fake sweetness as she stepped over the supposedly unconsciously man and made her way towards the back exit that she had spotted. Leaving the man to wonder if she had actually been there. Completely forgetting about his assistant who could have possibly seen the whole thing.

    (Time skip to Alix showing the dagger to Lasfanda? Or, to Alix trying to stab Kyran?)

    -Time Skip to Lasfanda-

    It was late at night when Lasfanda heard a knock on his door. Though, he was lucky to have heard it at all. He had been close to falling asleep and the knock was so faint that he questioned if someone was there at all. Still, the man moved onto his feet and headed to the door, only to see his student standing there. A sick grin came over his face and he moved to the side so the princess may walk into his room.

    He closed the door behind her before turning to Alix, moving his hands behind his back. "Why are you here so late?" Lasfanda asked though he was sure that he knew the answer to his question. Once Alix pulled out the dagger, Lasfanda was quick to grab it from her hands and take a close look at it. He spun it around in his hands, looking over each detail until he was satisfied that the princess had brought what he wanted.

    Heading up to her, he patted her head gently before securing the dagger in a locked chest. "Good job. I have to say that I am quite impressed that you got it so quickly. But this only bodes well for us. We will continue to move one step closer to our goal, with you being my beautiful secret weapon."

    The man turned to her once again, looking over the princess as he thought for a moment. "Since you were so successful, I will give you your next job now. I need you to write a few letters for me. One being an anonymous letter to the King about how you want him dead. Another revealing your plans to stab the King and doing it because you hate him for taking him away from your home... and the last one to King Jorgie about how you have succeed in his plan and may now move forth to take control of this kingdom. Do not allow anyone to see them and bring them here when you are done."

    (I thought you wanted Alix to get into more trouble or do you want to skip to the stabbing now?)

    It was surprisingly easy to sneak back into the castle once Alix has returned. Oh, how angry King Kyran would be if he ever found out his guards slacked off at night. Especially the ones who were tasked to guard the outside of the Princesses wing. During her whole treck back to her room, Alix hadn't seen a single guard. At least, not till she reached her room and looked down just in time to see one finally passing by. Although, he seemed to be preoccupied with playing with some magical item he had in his hand. If Alix wasn't under Lasfanda's spell right now, she would have told Kyran because she didn't feel very comfortable knowing that anyone could sneak into her room. She wasn't a fighter, she only knew how to give people attitudes, nor physically hurt them.

    Once inside, Alix went to the bathroom to clean herself up slightly. Wanting to make sure that she didn't have any dirt on herself, because god forbid one of the guards thought they had the right to stop her on a walk and question her. The Princess, betrothed to their kind, why she was dirty. She'd have to use the dagger on them. Or, have Lasfanda deal with them.

    When Alix had gotten to Lasfanda's room, she had knocked quietly. Not wanting to alert everyone to her presence. It was the middle of the night after all, and she was a young woman, a young betrothed woman going to another man's room. After a couple of moments, Alix started to get nervous. Sure, she still had on her cloak with its hood up, but she didn't want to be questioned. She needed to just give the man the dagger and move on to whatever else he wanted from her.

    Raising her hand, Alix was about to knock once more when the door opened. A small sigh of relief escaped from her lips. Then, she walked into his room without having to be told twice. Then, she turned towards Lasfanda, being respectful and not looking around his room, only focusing on the man in front of her. She brought the dagger out of it's hiding spot in her cloak and handed it to Lasfanda. Her blue eyes turning green once more as she held the dagger in her hand. Watching obediently as Lasfanda looked up the beautifully designed dagger.

    Then, once he put the dagger away, the green in Alix's eyes faded slightly. Allowing for her to think like her normal self, and yet was still under his control. A light blush dusting her cheeks at being called beautiful by such a strong and powerful man. "Who's King Jorgie?" Alix asked quietly, her bright blue eyes blinking innocently. "An what will he do to me once he's taken over Kyran's Kingdom?" No fear was in Alix's tone as she spoke. Instead, she sounded willing. Wanting to accept whatever fate the rival king could have in store for her. "Will I still be able to help you? Sir, Lasfanda?" Her voice becoming a little quieter, softer as she spoke the man's name. Wanting to please him as much as possible for some odd reason.

    "How soon would you like the letters? My ability to write in the language of this land isn't very good, and I'll need to practice a bit before it's legible." Alix told him, her voice soft as she looked up at the dark-haired man. Waiting for whatever he was to say to her. Ready to accept whatever he commanded of her. If he wanted the letters tomorrow, she'd gladly stay up all night practicing her writing, all to impress Sir Lasfanda once more.

    (I completely forgot about adding more drama! XD)
    (Also, found his descriptions. Think Alix is going to be caught up in the beauty of his golden eyes~)

    "King Jorgie is the King to the south. I am hoping to set it up so that he gets blamed for it all." Lasfanda started to smile widely at the thought. "If certain people were to find that letter in your room, or somewhere else, they would think that King Jorgie is reasonable for your betrayal, that he was trying to attack the king and take over this country. They will deny it, of course, but this kingdom will have no choice but to believe they are lying with all of the proof I plan to leave."

    Turning back to Alix, he walked over to her. "And there is still so much for you to do for me." He purred as he lightly ran a hand over the side of her face. "You will always be helpful to me, my darling. That is something you never need to worry about." Leaning forward, he pressed a kiss to her forehead as his hand slid down and lightly ran along her lips.

    Slowly, he pulled away and looked down at Alix, his smile growing more gentle now. He knew what he had to do to keep his little slave happy and Lasfanda was more than happy to do so. It would be so easy to wrap her around his finger even more since she was already under his control. Though she would be happy about it all. "I don't need the letters right away but ensure that you have them to me in the next few days. I want it to be legible so take the time that you need to make it perfect for me."

    Lasfanda glanced off to the side for a moment, taking a few seconds to think before he sent Alix back to her room. He didn't want her getting caught at all. "I want you to be extra sweet to the King over the next few days. Act like you're interested in him." As he said that, he turned back to her. "But don't give yourself to him. Remember that you are mine." He looked over at her almost possessively. "You should head back to your room now."

    A look of understanding appeared on Alix's face as she listened to Lasfanda. Her lips moving into an 'oh' shape and her head nodding ever so slightly. "That's smart." She murmured. Amazement in her voice that Lasfanda had thought about framing someone and so well. Proudness started to swell in her chest, the excitement that she was helping someone so smart with taking care of their plans and going through with them. Lasfanda was an amazing man. He's smart, talented and so good looking as well. It made Alix feel amazing whenever she gets to make him proud of her in return.

    When Lasfanda came towards Alix once more, she was certain that he was going to give her another order. An she was ready to hear it, she'd do anything for him. Her cheeks turned a slight pink color and Alix could have sworn that she forgot to breathe for a moment as Lasfanda leaned closer to her. "Lasfanda." She breathed out quietly, leaning into him slightly and smile at the feel of his slightly rough fingers as they ran along her lips. Affection from a man she admires felt so right.

    Then, when he pulled away, it felt like he was taking a piece of her with him. The thought of not having him so near her brought a slight frown to her lips, erasing the joyous smile that she had on. Her head nodding a little as he clarified what he needed from her. "Yes, sir," Alix said quietly, her eyes going to Lasfanda's lips before looking him in the eyes so that he knew that she was paying attention to him. A slight look of disgust appeared on her face when she was instructed to act sweet to Kyran, but nodded her head in understanding anyways. "Yes, sir." She murmured once more. "I won't give myself to him, I want you. Sir Lasfanda." Alix replied quietly, offering him a smile, not ashamed to let him know that she wanted him. That the King meant nothing and didn't stand a chance in her heart like the talented man in front of her. Then, she curtsied to him out of respect and left to head to her room.

    --

    The next morning Alix stood in front of the mirror that she had in her bathroom. Twitling back and forth as she admired the dress that she had picked out. The dark black would bring out the white in her blonde hair, and then make those looking at her face see how bright her blue eyes are. It was an amazing dress, making her feel taller, skinnier and just overall happy because she actually really liked this dress. Black and white were her favorite colors to have together.

    Once she was done admiring herself in the mirror, Alix headed out of her room. It was time for breakfast and she wanted to make sure to catch Kyran before he entered the dining hall. Wanting to make sure that he saw her in her new dress standing before she might make a fool of herself and drop something, or spill something on herself. Since she knew she was a clutz.

    Turning the corner, Alix felt like luck was on her side because she saw Kyran's back halfway down the hall. So, putting on her best blushing shy act, she moved quickly to catch up with the casual walking newly hailed king. "Good morning." She said politely as she walked up beside him and offered a small smile. "Did you sleep well." She asked making to grab onto his elbow as they walked like she had done the other night. Her bright blue eyes looking up and focusing on the king as he spoke to her. A light smile playing along her lips. She hoped that as he's looking down at her speaking, he could see that the dress she was wearing also offered anyone looking down at her a nice view between her breasts.

    As the young arranged couple walked down the hall, Alix made a show of resting her head against the King's arm as she walked with him. Acting like she wanted to be closer with him. "Will you take a walk with me today after my lessons?" Alix asked as she glanced up at Kyran once more. "I'd like to see what more of those potions do in that magic training tower. Or see more of the castle that I haven't explored yet. Or, just hang out with you while you do your paperwork in your offices." Alix lowered her gaze as they walked, bringing on her shy act for the King. "It's quite lonely here."

    As he heard of the voice of his fiancee from behind him, the King stopped walking and glanced back to see her. A warm smile came over his face as he waited for her to catch up to him. "Good morning," Kryan said warmly before beginning to walk again, now having Alix at his side. "I slept very well, how about you?" He asked her politely. Though as she linked her arm with his, Kyran pulled his arm a bit closer into his body to bring Alix closer to him as well.

    "It seems that someone is in a good mood this morning," He noted. A rather large smile was on Kyran's face. The truth was that he had been waiting since the moment she came to his world for Alix to show some interest in him and it was appearing that was finally happening. His eyes roamed over her bright blue eyes, glancing down to her smile. Though his eyes drifted further down and the King noticed that her breasts were out more than usual. He could see them from the top quite clearly. "You look lovely today,"

    Not wanting to be creepy and stare, Kyran shifted his eyes to focus back on hers. But once Alix laid her head against his shoulder, the king started to look forward down the hallway again. He could feel his heart beginning to melt a bit at Alix's affection. Maybe this meant he could finally move forward and show that he was interested in her? So far, he had just been trying to make his fiancee comfortable.

    His arm slowly slid from hers and drifted down as it was wrapped around her waist. Kyran pulled her close into his side, wanting her to be cuddled into him if possible. "You can spend the whole day with me after your lessons if you would like," Kyran told her, his voice still gentle.

    As they arrived at the dining room, Kyran opened the door for both of them before heading over to the dining table and pulling out a chair for her. "I do have to do some work but outside of that, we can see other parts of the castle or visit the potions. Is there one that you would prefer to do more?" Once she was seated, Kyran pushed her chair in. His hand lightly brushed over her back before he walked away and headed to his seat.

    A small giggle escaped from Alix's lips as she listened to Kyran. A smile playing along her lips as she moved closer to him. "I slept very well last night." She told him as they walked down the hall. Ignoring any servants that might be passing by doing their morning duties. "I did wake up in a good mood, I asked for some tea before bed and I feel like it washed away all my stress." Alix lied, although it flew from her lips so easily it would be extremely hard to tell.

    "Thank you, Your Majesty," Alix said quietly and easily moved to lean against his side as he moved his hand to her waist. Her own hands moving to hold onto his hand and his chest as they walked. Her head moving to relax against his side as they walked down the hall. From anyone who saw them, they'd think that they were a young couple that was in love. Not a couple with a whole bunch of thorns sticking into them from all angles.

    As they entered the dining room, Alix stood up straighter and walked in with Kyran. Offering him a small smile as thanks as he pulled out a chair for her. Her right hand moved to brush some of her hair off of her shoulder in a sort of flirty move as she felt his hand trailing along her back. A small smile playing along her lips at the small movement of affection from the King who she up until today though was a stiff.

    "I'm open to both, neither trumps the other," Alix said quietly as she glanced towards the side and watched the servants bringing in their breakfast. "Although. I heard that on the East side of the Castle, there's an art room. Filled with old paintings that the Late King Serin used to collect. Is that true?" Alix asked, remembering hearing it from her original tutor when he was going on and on about the beauty of art in this Kingdom.

    Then, a look of shock appeared on Alix's face as she realized what she had just said. King Serin was Kyran's grandfather. She had no idea what sort of relationship the two might of had, and could have stepped on something she shouldn't have. "I-I'm sorry, I didn't. I mean." Alix started to fumble with her words, unsure if she had upset the King and ruined their good day. Her bright blue eyes looking down at the plate that was set in front of her. Not sure if she'd be able to eat anymore.

    The smile on the King's face only grew as he listened to the giggle that came from Alix. He was pleased that she was finally warming up to him. While the King was curious about what had caused the change, he was not going to question his good luck. Things were looking up and now he was hoping to move forward with his dear fiancée. Maybe he could finally get Alix in a place where she actually wanted to be with him instead of just tolerating him because of the circumstances he put her in... Kyran couldn't say that the situation was quite right but it was tradition and, truthfully, he had grown attached to the little Firestarter rather quickly.

    "I am very pleased to hear that you are feeling much better then." Kyran told her, his arm tightening around Alix gently as she leaned into his side. He looked down at her caringly as she laid her head against his chest. Though, slowly, the king looked back up and led them the rest of the way to the dining room.

    When they entered, he headed over to her chair and pulled it out for the princess. His hand slowly slid along her back once she was properly seated. Kyran didn't want to pull away but he knew he needed to for breakfast. As much as he would love to, he knew they were not in a place where Kyran could convince Alix to come sit in his lap...not yet but hopefully someday he could.

    Once he was seated, the servants came out and set the food down on the table before heading out of the room. Kyran only glanced down at the meal for a moment before fully turning his attention to Alix. She was the only important thing in this room. "I am not sure why you are apologizing." Kyran said gently as he reached out and took Alix's hand into his. He gently squeezed it, wanting to reassure the princess as he lightly rubbed his thumb along her skin. "But I assure you that you have done nothing wrong to offend me."

    "In fact," The King continued on. "That sounds like a rather good idea. We can start out time together looking at my grandfather's paintings. There were many that he collected and I am rather sure that the collection will impress you. In fact some of them are hanging in the castle but there are some so spectualar that he never allowed to be hung in fear they would be ruined." Kyran lifted her hand up and gently kissed the back of it before continuing on. "And, if there is time, perhaps we can do one of the other two things you mentioned as well."

    With that, Kyran brought their hands back down onto the table. "Now, you must eat. Otherwise you will grow tired before you even meet with me later today."

    A light blush appeared on Alix's cheeks as she listened to Kyran. She didn't think that he'd so easily accept her idea to go and see the paintings. They were supposedly a hobby of the late kinds, and often put the royal family at odds with each other because he would spend so much time looking for new art instead of ruling the Kingdom.

    "Thank you." Alix murmured as she watched the King kiss her hand. Making her heart flutter a little bit in her chest. It was the same intensity she got when Lasfanda kissed her forehead the night before. It kinda made her heart hurt, feeling like the two wouldn't like to know that she was growing fond over the both of them. Both having a special place in her heart. Although Alix doesn't realize it, everything she was feeling for Lasfanda was only because of his spell on her. Making her mind and body react more to the man then it usually would.

    "Yes, my King," Alix said teasingly as she let out a small giggle once more before looking down at her food. Usually, she would have just picked at her food and pushed it around. The food of this world not catching her attention, except. After speaking with the chef's they've started to accommodate and tried to add a couple more earth-related foods. Offering something that seemed related to hashbrowns, and scrambled eggs, and bacon. Although it was this world's versions and slightly strange tasting to Alix, she was making do. Nibbling a little bit on things. Eating a bite or two more than she normally would have.

    After eating her fill and Alix saw that the King was done eating as well, Alix waited for Kyran to stand first. Then, she followed suit and stood. Standing on her tippy toes, Alix pressed a quick kiss to Kyran's cheek before stepping back before he could react. "I'll see you after my lesson." Alix gave Kyran a small teasing bow, giving him yet another nice view of her chest. Then, she turned and headed out of the room. A little sway of her hips to keep the King's attention on her.

    A small smile was displayed on Alix's lips the whole time that she walked down the hall. Not showing a hint of her secret disgust from having to seduce the King. When she finally reached the room where her lessons were being held, Alix knocked before slipping into the room. A small sigh escaping from her lips. "I have a draft of that first letter or you, Master," Alix spoke quietly as she reached into the top of her dress and pulled out the extremely small folded piece of paper from between her dress and corset.

    A bit of surprise moved over Kyran's face as Alix pressed a kiss against his cheek. Though before he could react, Alix was already heading out of the room. His fingers twitched slightly, wishing that he could pull his princess in and kiss her. He wished he could of at least had time to grab her hand and kiss the back of it. But all he could do was watch Alix walk away from him, moving those hips of hers as she did so. Kyran had no idea what had gotten into Alix but he liked it. Damn, he liked it a lot.

    It took him a moment before he was able to turn away and head towards his duties for the day. Though his thoughts were stuck on her. This is what Kyran had been waiting for and he was hoping to not fuck it up. Alix was finally showing an interest in him, finally giving him a chance to be the love of her life and he needed to make sure that he rose to the occasion.

    Lasfanda glanced up from his work for a moment as Alix came into the room. His interest peaked when he noticed the dress she was wearing, paying attention to how her chest was a prominent feature. Interesting. A low hum came from the man as he watched her reach between her dress and her corset and handed him the letter that she had drafted. Taking it, he unfolded the paper and looked it over. After a minute, he pulled out a pen and started to write some edits on it. Though it was not long until he was handing it back to her. "Just make these edits and it will be perfect." Lasfanda purred before standing up.

    He walked over to Alix and slowly looked her over. After a moment, he reached out and looped his finger around her necklace, pulling it so that Alix would walk closer to him. Lasfanda did so until Alix was pressed against his body. His fingers dropped the necklace against her chest before he reached down and slowly ran his hand along her neck. "That is quite a nice dress that you have picked out." He whispered to her.

    A small nervous tingle started to build inside of Alix's stomach as she watched Lasfanda read the letter. She had worked almost all night on it. She thought it sounded good for a hate letter, but. It didn't matter what she thought, it only mattered what Master Lasfanda thought of it. He was the one who needed the letter to be perfect, and in return, she needed to make sure that it was. His plan was riding on her making his dreams come true.

    Perking up a little bit at the sound of Lasfanda's voice, Alix slowly reached out and grabbed onto the note once more. A small smile pulling onto her lips as she took his criticism in strides. "Yes, Master," Alix said quietly and then proceeded to stuff the letter back into it's hiding spot. Not showing any sort of shame in having him watch as she shoved it down into the crease between the dress and the corset that she was wearing.

    Then, Alix slowly turned as she followed Lasfanda, stopping when she was facing him. Her bright green eyes blinking innocently as she obediently moved towards the man who was in control. Her cheeks turning a light pink at how close she was standing. A light smile blooming in place of what would usually be a shy one. She didn't mind that he just needed to look down to see her breasts perfectly, it was why she had picked this dress in the first place. She wore it to please him. To gain his attention. Her own hands reached up slowly and rested against the man's sides as she leaned in a little bit closer to his body on her own accord. Wanting to feel his hard body against her softer one.

    "Thank you, Master," Alix said quietly, a small shiver ran down her back as she felt his slightly cool hand on her neck. "I hoped that you would like it," Alix said quietly. "It was very easy to put on, but it's easier to take off." She told him, bringing one of her hands to her back slowly and lightly grasped the strings that were holding her dress in place in the back. "But with a simple tug, it can just as easily come off." Alix didn't dare do something without being ordered to by Master Lasfanda. Instead, she just kept herself ready to pull the string and allow for her dress to slip off of her if he wished it.
