<br/><strong>"Your grace, I would not expect such an answer this soon. Just some food for thought if you will. I do realize this is sudden, however your work and you - as a person - never went unnoticed. The position I have been placed into, requires finesse and quick action I am afraid. However, I would not offer such things, if I did not believe in your abilities. But alas, this should be discussed more in a less crowded atmosphere as you said."</strong><br/><br/>She offered a smile upwards and parted her lips slightly before continuing with the dance. Her hands slid around his neck into his hair, pressing her body up against his in a sensual motion, while resting her cheek close to his taking in the warmth of his body. Princess Aria had noticed her cousin and the men who spread out around the room. She gave a quick glance toward Roarke and Shar and smiled a little. She knew she'd miss the court entertainer well, but he had things he had to do, unfortunately.<br/><br/>As the dance continued and the music slowed to a stop, she looked back upward taking a small step back yet kept her hands upon his chest lightly. Her stormy colored eyes shifted to stare up into Cernunnos' and she spoke softly.<br/><br/><strong>"Thank you for the dance. You are better on your feet than you give yourself credit for, King Cernunnos."</strong><br/><br/>She stepped up on her tiptoes and laid a soft kiss against his cheek, allowing it to brush over the corner of his lips. Only then, did she move away from him and gave a polite curtsy.
