Amarille reached over to take the prince's hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze before lacing their fingers together. "I'll speak with her tonight, after dinner.. I'll put an end to it." She murmured softly as she looked over at where her sister sat with the royal advisor, worrying for her sister. Her sister had never shown any interest in Rainier before the last few days, and she worried that perhaps Caspian was right, that he was somehow manipulating her. And if he knew that Caspian was the werewolf... She pushed those thoughts from her head, especially when the court members began to discuss how they'd easily deal with the problem of the monster, giving Caspian's hand another squeeze as she felt his hands begin to shake, hoping to help steady him, calm him. "You've nothing to worry about, my love.." She whispered so only he could hear as her thumb gently brushed over his hand.
She looked over at him when he spoke up, however, initially afraid that perhaps he was going to confess that it was him, have the council members lock him away or worse to avoid any more deaths, but she was pleasantly surprised to hear him announce to everyone that they planned to marry, offering him a warm smile as a blush lit up her cheeks. She squeezed his hand again before turning to look at the members of the court, who were all murmuring their congratulations or discussing how glad they were that everything had worked out according to their plans. "We were hoping that the marriage could take place soon. In a few weeks if possible, or a month or so at the most. The sooner we are wed and crowned King and Queen, the sooner we can serve the kingdom."
Rainier was surprised to hear that the princess wanted to be married so soon. He'd known from what Isolde had mentioned earlier that she was head over heels for the prince, but to be married so soon.. An idea suddenly struck him, and, clearing his throat, he offered a warm smile to the newly engaged pair. "Congratulations, your highness. Perhaps to show the court and the kingdom that this business about the werewolf is nothing to be concerned about, you should have your wedding on the day of the next full moon? That would give a month to prepare everything, and I doubt that the monster would show again, after all, it has never appeared before now, and I don't believe it would stick around long enough to be discovered."
