A Curiosity in Crimson
โโโ- - - โ ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย her heart skips a beat the second his lips touch her hand. it is a gentle gesture but with the gaze that comes her way, it feels hard to breathe for a second. widened azures stare at him for a moment but she is first to give in and turn away in shame. cheeks colored in lightest pink, she can not describe what she feels right now. it is clear on her face but her heart is certainly a mess. it should be something she, as royalty, should be used to ; a mere kiss on the back of her hand. but her increasing heartbeat speaks otherwise.

ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย a desperate attempt on getting him to spend some time with her. but he seems to be a well versed man that knows his way around ionia. and part of her is curios about what else this person can show her. maybe he is a mage, just like her. or maybe... โย if you are willing to let me steal some more of your time, of course.ย โ
