It was odd how someone so beautiful could tame the monster even he believed himself to be. Her blush brought a sly grin to his face that conveyed his desire to enjoy every moment with her no matter what others thought of him. Letting her go for now he turned his attention to the large cake that had been placed on a table by itself at the center of the room. It was simple with a gold and silver bell set on the top. Servants were in the process of pouring wine into everyone's goblets, "You look like gift too sweet not to taste," He teased her before standing and holding his hand out for her own, "We have a cake to cut though I'm not going to partake of it myself as I have something far more sweet to taste in a bit."<br/><br/>His eyes conveyed his desires. A few would have thought the king bewitched by this woman he now called his own. Not quite though. It was her innocent nature and desire to see the world for what it was no matter how harsh it actually was that drew him to her. Once her hand was in his he would bring it to his lips and kiss the back of her knuckles before leading her down towards the cake. Praises were shouted as they held the gold and silver knife that was held out by the chef. Hades stood behind his lovely bride and gripped her right hand with his own while his left rested possessively on her left hip.<br/><br/>He planned to dance a song with her before retiring for the evening. He wanted her alone. He wanted to here her speak about what she saw and heard and what it made her feel. Hades smiled softly.
