“Yes, The ‘only way’.” Robin stated, slightly mocking her. “The only easy way to get honor. No. Playing the Game isn’t my cup of ale. But I’ll make a Valsirian Wager with you. If she does love me, I will try to court her, after the rebellion. If she doesn’t, well, I will still do the rebellion but I think just for good luck on my quest to take back my Family home in Valsir I think I’d like to kiss the cheek of a lovely lady in waiting.” Narissa blushed then scoffed.
“Everyone wins regardless."
"Handsome and humble..." She said wryly. "So, you will come back to the castle with me and try to woo the princess?" she asked him. "It's the only way that she'll ever fall for you, you need to be there, with her." she said and folded her arms. "It is what The Shadow King is doing as we speak, aiding her while she is ill." She said with a shrug.

Meanwhile, “Morning.” Galen said and sat up against headboard as she rose to herself. “I’m sure you’re feeling better now huh?”
"Much better, thank you," She said with a smile. She hadn't noticed before how tangled up in one another they were. Her legs were resting on his, and at one point his fingers were tangled in her hair. It all felt so right. She needed to free him. "I know how to free you," She said. "If you want to be free that is," She looked away. "I like when you're you," She said honestly. "You're someone I could..." She didn't finish before she spoke those words too soon.
