Tears dripped down Wanda's face as Steven took it in his calloused hands, directing her to look at him. Normally, they would not dare to be so close to one another but in the privacy of her rooms, they had a little more space to be as close as they wanted. "I cannot deny my Father's wishes, and he wants me to accompany my brother back to The Forge." She told him softly. The journey to her family's seat was long, especially on the land. "I do not know when we will return to court."
He took a step back from her after wiping the tears from her eyes. It was something he hated, the idea of her leaving but he had an idea. All it would take is Kyra's father to agree. He was part of the gold cloaks though and they were to stay in the city. Swallowing har, he took her head and moved towards a tapestry that he knew hid one of Maegor's passages. He was so happy at times that the cruel king had been so paranoid.
"My beautiful Lady Wanda. What if I beg the king to let me go with the princess. You know she's been betrothed to your brother this morning. It hasn't been annouced but she is to go to your home to start to set up her new home. It is a big deal to be a Lord who's son is marrying the King's daughter."
