Alyxander gently hugs Kate back for a moment, very light and barely touching her... he didn't want to do anything that may upset her father. After a second he pulled back a bit, glancing from the girl to her dad. "I intend no harm to anyone, sir. Besides that, I owe your daughter my life for the kindness she has shown me and all she has done for me." He replied politely, still using his manners and keeping his voice at a respectful tone. "If you allow it, I would like to become a servant of your household once I have healed. I should be well and strong soon enough."
