To the shock of the Prince, Scarlet had actually agreed to kiss him. Their previous kiss, the one shared the day of the wedding, was utterly devoid of passion of any sort. It was short, uncomfortable, and entirely out of the couples control. But now would be different, though Alexander did have his reservations about actually going through with it. He didn’t wish to force his wife into anything she would not enjoy. Yet it’s rather laughable to believe the Prince could force anyone to do anything, in fact, it could be said the Princess had more power then he did. Yet she still willing agreed to allow him to kiss her, it wouldn’t be something he took lightly. “A-Alright... Thank you.” He offers a kind smile, before taking a step closer to Scarlet. From here, he seemingly towered over her, the gift of his height had seemingly remained with him, the only bit of his body illness hadn’t claimed.<br/><br/>Silently, a gentle, pale hand came to rest on the Princesses cheek, his soft blue eyes locking with her deep green orbs. This woman had proven she did care more then anyone else, even if it was just for the sake of her own future. To be perfectly honest, Alexander didn’t even care what her motives were, he knew no woman was going to love a walking corpse. If only they could have met but a few years before, maybe then he could actually have a chance at courting her, but now it seemed impossible. The Prince would have to settle for the tiny moments such as this to satisfy his needed for Love. Slowly, the Prince leans in, his eyes closing as he does so. For a moment, his lips hesitated just before they touched Scarlets, yet this ended once lips met. Now that he actually focused on the kiss, he now realized the just how much feeling was involved. She was warm, her aura one of both stubborness and care, and her taste? Sweet, sweeter then anything Alexander could put to words. But before it even started it was over, as he didn’t wished to push his luck.<br/><br/>“I... That was... Wonderful.” His smile told her everything. He felt good, confident for once in a long while. “You... You can read later, we should get breakfast, I haven’t eaten since the wedding.” Again, his arm extended as an offering to the Princess. “I can assure you, everything you’d ever need is here in this castle. Well... besides ones freedom.” Not even Alexander laughed at this attempt at a joke, for he knew they were both prisoners now.
