Her return from her outing was quicker than assumed. After Scorpio had left her, she walked along the beach for an hour or two before returning to the castle. Of course, she never told anyone. She needed some solitude to recompose herself after that moment in the beach. In her room, she showered and changed into more informal wear- leggings and a near sleeveless tunic With that's, she spent the rest of her time before dinner in her room, working on some projects. Upon realizing it was dinner, Alexis hurriedly rose from her chair, staring at ink stained gloves and sighing. She had to change, too. After all, she was kind of wearing the same attire as Scorpio.
A few minutes later, Alexis came into the dining room, her hair tied up simply in a ponytail. Her gloves had changed, now more of a beige than white. "Prince Scorpio," she greeted calmly. "The wait was not long, I hope."
