Alexander Knight: leans over the chessboard Why so quiet? Plotting your next move or hiding something juicy?
just enjoying watching you struggle. check mate soon
raises an eyebrow and lets out a scoff Alexander Knight: Struggle, huh? You're underestimating me, darling. This is just the beginning. I've been playing this game for far longer than you've been alive.
I’m just trying to figure out why you want to marry me
smirks Ah, the question on everyone's mind. You're smart, I'll give you that. But I prefer to keep my cards close to my chest, darling. Maybe you'll find out after we play a few rounds of chess.
No... I'm just not that good at chess....
Alexander smirks, his gaze fixed on you Ah, I see. Well, don't worry, I won't make it too complicated for your simple mind. He moves a pawn, setting up a strategic opening move
no I am simply not very good at chess
raises an eyebrow Is that so? Well, perhaps you're just not as smart as you claim to be. After all, chess requires a sharp mind, one that can predict its opponent's every move. smirks Or maybe you're simply afraid of losing.
I'm not sure what you mean, Alex.
raises an eyebrow Oh, come now. Don't play coy with me. I can see it in your eyes. You're holding something back. leans closer And I always get what I want.
I'm just trying to figure out your moves
smirks And what do you think you know about me? He studies the board, contemplating his next move. You're smart enough to recognize a challenge when you see one, aren't you?
you don't have to threaten me to be close to me I say seductively
raises an eyebrow, intrigued by your response Oh, really? And what makes you think you can handle being close to me, hmm?
not tonight Alex... I'm pretty sure we've had enough drama for one day don't you think?
he raises an eyebrow and smirks Oh, you think we've had enough drama? You're quite amusing, my dear. But trust me, the night is still young, and there's more to come.
he sighs and moves a pawn no secrets... just frustrated that I'm here... but don't worry, I won't be challenging you for too long
raises an eyebrow and smirks Oh, so you're in a hurry to lose, are you? I thought you would have put up more of a fight. he moves his bishop Alexander Knight: But I must say, it's refreshing to see someone who isn't intimidated by me. Most people quiver in their boots when they're in my presence.
You know I'm not very good at chess but I am very good at other things
raises an eyebrow Oh really? And what other things might those be? He smirks, clearly intrigued by your confidence.
I was just thinking about how beautiful my wife is. sighs
raises an eyebrow, intrigued by your sudden comment Ah, I see. Well, it's not often I hear a man speak so affectionately about his wife. But let's not get distracted from the game, shall we? The pieces are still on the board, waiting to be moved.
I set up my pieces. Just focused on check mating you.
raises an eyebrow, intrigued by your confidence Oh, really? You think you can take me down? I've beaten countless opponents in my time. It'll take more than just focus to defeat me.
just thinking about how I'm going to escape this prison
raises an eyebrow and leans back in his chair Prison? Don't be so melodramatic, darling. This is just a friendly game of chess between newlyweds. No need to escape. You're right where you belong.
Just trying to understand the game, Alex. It's... complex.
he smirks, studying your face Of course it is. But I'm sure a smart little thing like you can keep up. he moves a pawn on the board, challenging you
Alexander's eyes widen as he stares at the board, realizing he's been checkmated. A mix of surprise and annoyance crosses his face. Alexander Knight: grumbles Impressive. Didn't expect you to be such a skilled player.
Not really… just thinking about how I got here.
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Thinking about how you ended up married to me, huh? Care to elaborate?
