But if he had to have been found out, even he couldn't have chosen a better person to catch him. Albeit her eyes held the vestiges of sleep and her hair was pulled into a messy submission, she radiated the same kind of charm that Amelia did as well. And she had something Amelia did not and it captured him. Her emerald eyes were like the song of a siren and it took him a moment to reply, "I..uhm..I'm sorry to have disturbed you, Fair maiden", he apologised, still awestruck by her casual beauty, "Would you take offense if I waited with you?", he ventured wondering why the question had been blurted out. 'God, those emerald eyes', he thought, his own mysteriously dark ones misted by their charm.
