<span style="font-style: italic">The King merely pretend not to notice the caught off guard expression and look that had flickered across theJames's face. He had thought on it long and hard during the fight and after the fight that had saved his daughter's life. This was exactly what it sounded like. It was a job offer. Royal employment. He would have had no hard feelings if the man had said no. Hearing the answer he had been hoping for he smiled a bit more. "It is good to have you as a Knight in my kingdom Lord Fields. May life keep you well." He says. Clapping his hands and the desert was brought forth. He sits down again. "You may sit Lord Fields."</span><br/><br/>Serena watched with bated breath as the guy said nothing while he thought. She hoped he would say yes as he was far more competent than most of the Knights in her father's kingdom.  She watched him hesitantly rise from his seat. She felt his gaze on her and turned her attention to him. A warm and gentle smile to him on her face. Her gratitude still there in her eyes even now. Her eyes took on a light sparkle of delighted happiness when he said yes. She kept a calm composure yet a happy smile crossed her lips. She quickly hid it behind her glass of wine as she took a sip. He was so noble and not just by rank. His deeds had shown him to be such a man. She finished eating and was given dessert. When she was done with that everyone was allowed to leave the dining hall. She looked at James and smiled. Walking over to her father and kissed his cheek. "See you later father." She said. Her father petted her hair once before going off to do so of his kingly duties. She stood where she was after he left. Looking at James. "Mr. Fields would you like to go for a walk in the gardens with me?" She asks. A warm smile on her soft rosy lips.
