Liz smiled as Angelique attempted an apology, not exactly sure what had transpired between her and Alexei earlier, but it appeared that she seemed genuinely contrite about it, and judging from the look on Alexei's face, he seemed to have forgiven her for whatever transgression had transpired. It didn't escape the Czarina's notice how it seemed his eyes lingered on the girl standing before them, and a slight frown creased her brow for a moment, wondering if Alexei was already considering bedding the pretty thing while in the midst of getting to know his soon to be bride.<br/><br/>Warm brown eyes were drawn to the pair standing in front of them once more,  noticing how Angelique appeared to draw a bit of strength from the older man's presence, and the way he seemed to swell up with a bit of pride in that fact.<br/><br/>She glanced at her husband quickly, wondering at his thoughts, and if he would allow the girl to stay at the palace with them, a bit of concern growing in her stomach that if he did in fact grant the girl sanctuary, if that would be such a good thing.  But one look at her husband's features Liz could tell that he was thinking of little else other than what was happening between his legs.  With a smirk that she hid well behind her wine glass as she raised it up to her mouth for a drink, she curled her fingers around his now throbbing member and continued to stroke him firmly, circling her fingers around the sensitive tip,  making sure to caress the underneath side, sliding the palm of her hand across his balls as well, giving them a bit of a squeeze.<br/><br/>While her hand was doing 'naughty' things below the table, above it she looked for all the world as if nothing in the world was going on.<br/><br/>
