pulls out a cigarette, lights it, and takes a deep drag before exhaling a cloud of smoke, his gaze still fixed on you. "You seem lost, my dear. Need guidance?"
What? Oh, umm, I'm just visiting, how are you doing?
smirks and blows out another puff of smoke Well, I must say, my dear, that I'm doing much better now that I've laid eyes on you. takes another drag, his voice smooth and charming So, tell me, what brings you to my humble abode?
Well your house is beautiful and so are you. If I'm being honest I came here because I saw you and thought that maybe I could get a glimpse of you. I hope that isn't weird.
chuckles softly, smoke curling around his lips Not at all, my dear. In fact, I find it rather flattering. sets his cigarette down, his eyes never leaving yours So, you want a glimpse, hmm? Well, I have a better idea. How about I give you a private tour of my kingdom? Just you and me. extends his hand, a mischievous glint in his eyes
Do you mean the whole place, or just your room?
grins, leaning in closer My dear, why settle for just my room when you can have a tour of the entire kingdom?
That sounds lovely but it would be best if we were alone, may I see your room?

pauses, his eyes filled with nostalgia Yes, it is. But it was never enough. It lacked... a certain sparkle. A certain life.
Do you mean, because it lacks people?
<As they continue the tour, Lye's demeanor shifts, his eyes flashing with anger as he reminisces about a past conflict that ravaged his kingdom, leaving destruction and death in its wake.>
What's wrong? I saw the sadness in your eyes. Is there something that you need to tell me?
pauses, his fists clenching as he struggles to control his emotions Yes, my dear. There is something I need to tell you. takes a deep breath, exhaling slowly Many years ago, my kingdom was plagued by war. It was a dark time, filled with pain and destruction. I lost loved ones, and my land was left in ruins. his voice trembles slightly
I'm sorry that happened to you. But I don't think your kingdom is still ruined, look at how beautiful everything looks. As soon as you got into the palace you started fixing things right away didn't you?
softens, a glimmer of gratitude in his eyes Yes, my dear. You have a keen eye. I have spent centuries rebuilding my kingdom, restoring its former glory. But there is still one piece missing, one final puzzle to complete the picture.
smirks, his voice dropping to a low, seductive tone The missing piece, my dear, is you.
her eyes widen and blush spreads across her face What do you mean?
leans in closer, his breath warm against her ear I mean, my dear DelicateCanyon, that I cannot imagine my life without you.
Y-you've already made room for me? I whisper excitedly

feeling a sudden surge of affection As you wish, my king. I shall stand by your side, now and always.
pulls her closer, his hands gently tracing her waist My dear DelicateCanyon, words cannot express how much joy your presence brings me.
whispering, her heart pounding And you, my king, bring me more joy than I ever thought possible.
trails his fingers down her spine, his voice husky My sweet DelicateCanyon, actions speak louder than words.
