Just by being in the palace on that amount of time, he already picked the servant's habits and reactions with regards to Aegan. He really is strict and usually have a blank or annoyed expression but when his voice turns like this, everyone in the household seems to be holding for their dear life, just like the woman in front of him right now.

"You're banned to enter the palace so I don't know whose poor soul you'd sold just to be let inside." he said with that bone chilling voice again the first time he met him. "Be rest assured that whoever that person is will no longer saw the light of day by tomorrow."

He shivers. He heard that he is a war monger but hearing it in person how little he valued his subjects lives make him scared for the wellbeing of the princess. It now also registered to him that he calls the woman by the name of Dasha and by what he gathered, this is the sole woman who he only allows to come inside and out his chambers before the princess arrives. For him to use that tone on her... What more can he do and say to the princess.

"Your Highness. I would go for now but please reconsider your orders." she said hesitantly but in the end went out of the room throwing him death glares.

When the two of them were now left alone, his face slowly relaxes and gave him the look his familiar with.

"After avoiding me, it's a surprise to see you seek for me alone. Have you finally decided to be mine Yarran? You even throw the bitch out the room." he said amusingly, seeming pleased of him interrupting them that confused him. Is he really happy he got in his way.

"You're the one that sends her out." he said."I did." he said smirking at him. "I can't let such hands ruined your pretty face can I."

There he goes again. Calling him pretty. He is considered tall for most men in Elfini and although the prince tower's him, he can't find any feminine in him to be called pretty. Given a few scars and there as well as his own well toned muscles. Clearly it does not compare to the prince's magnificent body but he just can't find something in him worth getting the praise.

"I wonder what about me is pretty in your eyes Aegan." he muttered too late to realize he voice it out.He was baffled when he chuckled a little. It's so out of his character to do so.

"Your face is really pretty, specially your eyes." he said giving him a heated look again. "You have this look in your eyes as if your trying to seduce me.""I did not." he counter.

He just shrugged his shoulders and reach his arms for him.

He's not insane to be lured by that gesture he told to himself until he felt his own two feet coming towards him. Shit. Everytime with him, he can't help be mesmerized.

He reached for him but before he could say anything he opens a topic concerning about the princess. He figured out not long ago that thinking about the princess's welfare is all he have to do when he's with Aegan's to have a sound mind.

"Princess Cadia told me about a document you asked her to sign. May I know what is it all about?"

His hands on his arms, squeezing it he answer. "You're late with the news as she had already signed it earlier. It's about our marriage certificate."He felt that pinch somewhere again for some unknown reason. Glancing at his table, he catch a glimpse of what seems to be what he's talking about. Maybe he also show it to Dasha earlier and she's mad because he thought she still had a chance to replace the Princess's position if certificates haven't done yet. Who would've thought he was quick to do it.

"Isn't it too sudden?" he asked. "Signing of certificates should be done after the marriage ceremony is it not? Or you have different cultures here in the South?"
