Josephine pressed her back further against the wall as the guard neared her and sat down. The first surprise to her was that the male made no attempt to touch her or force her to eat. 'What is he planning? Trying to lure me in?' She refused to take the bait, glancing away and shifting her legs to the side. Second surprise; the king didn't want her to look sick. That was quite a contradictory of this condition she was in. What was he thinking, planning to do with her... why keep her healthy if she's merely a prisoner? He wants her dead after all, why not poison the food? The guard's voice snapped her out of her thoughts again, and on came the third surprise. His tone was much gentler than the others, yet not forced to be that way. Her mind blocked out any thoughts of him having good intentions though, and as she slowly reached for the plate, she stopped short. "And what for you? Why be so friendly to me unless you have some other motive? You may give up the act, being sweet will get you no more reward than being cruel."
