"..... Your Majesty......" you began awkwardly.
A firm, cool hand tilted your chin up, and you looked up into King
Rheodyn's face again. His blue-green orbs examined you searchingly, as
he moved your head over to each side slightly. Finally, he released
you.
"She is a beautiful girl," he said, more to himself them
anyone else.
"Kneel, you silly girl," a woman beside you whispered,
prodding you so that you fell a little ungracefully onto your knees.
Well, if it would have stopped you from being beheaded, you were
happy.
