Ellie could feel a soft heat rise to her cheeks when he said that her first and middle name were lovely. She forced the heat to go back down and hide itself beneath her emotionless face.<br/><br/>She had known that the manuscript was the only document showing that he actually exists. Without it, he may as well had been a ghost. She listened carefully as he explained, speaking of a Dragon that cursed him because of his gullibility, and how naive he was. She did agree that he was naive for believe the words of a Dragon. She had done some reading of Dragons when she was younger and only revisited it until now. She had realized that Dragons are greedy and cruel. It is rare that you find one that is kind, most of them don't live long enough to meet anyway.<br/><br/>When he asked what her favorite color was she gave a soft smile. "Purple." She said simply before giving a small laugh. "It's probably the only thing feminine about me now that I think about it." She shook her head softly as she thought of another question.<br/>"What will happen to you if the curse is broken?" She was curious. If she could find a way to break the curse, she didn't want him to die. Sure she was stubborn in admitting that she was growing some feelings for him, but she didn't want him to go. He was the only person her age that wasn't a spoiled brat. Thinking about it now, she was surprised Sebastian wasn't planning on doing a ball for all of the eligible young men for her to possibly become engaged with. She gave a soft shiver thinking about all of the spoiled rich boys looking down on her because she is a girl. It made her sick.
