"Like hell I am." Now, there was no denying how relieved he was to hear those words slip from the lips of the oh so fragile porcelain doll her parents always described her as. It just gave her more of a reality to her, made her seem more normal than he ever believed her out to be. Sure the prissiness of her attitude was spot on, but he not once ever believed he would hear a fair woman such as herself have such foul language. Even the small laugh that followed her words tossed him into a bit of shock. Needless to say though, he wasn't just going to allow her to continue walking away.
Ryker let out a sigh and stepped up to her, forcing himself in front of her so she would be cut off her path. "Where are you going?" he questioned. Whatever it was, stupidity or courage, he admired it. Though he was leaning more towards stupidity. She wanted to continue running away from the life she grew up in even after all the hell she endured with these men. Genevieve had no idea of the dangers that lurked in this forest. There were things much more dangerous than a band of thieves and no matter how much she would like to deny it, he knew she would be safer at his side and returning back to the castle.
"We can do this the easy way or the hard way. Your choice." Now he knew he wasn't going to hurt the princess, but he did have other means of getting her to go with him that didn't cause any harm to her. If he had to, that's the route he was willing to go. It wasn't until now that he realized he had two reasons to take her back home. The money and so she would be safe behind the walls of the castle. No woman should be lurking through the woods alone, no matter how much they strived to prove themselves.
