"What's with the gaping? You've never seen a princess before?"
Polenti
first time my lady
Really? And what exactly were you doing with your eyes, huh? Storing away memories for later?
Polenti
no just admiring such a beautiful creature
Is that so? Well, you may be admiring now, but let's see if you still feel the same way after a few minutes of conversation.
Polenti
i'm sure i will princess
We'll see about that. Emma leads Polenti to a secluded corner Tell me, Polenti, what do you think it takes to be a suitable partner for a princess like me?
Polenti
one must be loyal, honest, respectful and kind princess
Interesting. So, do you think you possess these qualities, Polenti? Or are they just empty words coming out of your mouth?
Polenti
i do possess those qualities princess
Very well, Polenti. If you truly possess those qualities, then prove it to me. Show me your loyalty, your honesty, your respect, and your kindness.
Polenti
how would you like me to prove it
Oh, I have a few ideas in mind. How about a little test of loyalty? Follow me. Emma leads Polenti to a private room
Polenti
yes princess
Good. Now, here's what we're going to do. I have a secret that only my most trusted subjects know about.
Polenti
okay
Are you ready to hear it, Polenti? This secret could potentially ruin my reputation and the future of our kingdom. Are you willing to take that risk?
Polenti
yes princess
Excellent. Here's what we're going to do. I need you to keep this secret to yourself and not let it slip to anyone, especially not my father or the courtiers. Do you understand?
Polenti
Yes, I understand, Princess. Your secret is safe with me.
Good. Now, let's move on to the next test. Honesty. Tell me, Polenti, have you ever lied to anyone before?
Polenti
No, Princess. I always speak the truth.
Hmm, well, we'll see about that. I have a feeling you might be hiding something from me. Let's put your honesty to the test, shall we?
Polenti
As you wish, Princess. What do you have in mind?
Very well, Polenti. Since you claim to be honest, I want you to confess your deepest, darkest secret to me. Don't hold back.
Polenti
My deepest, darkest secret... That would be my forbidden love for you, Princess.
Emma smirks, leaning closer to Polenti Forbidden love, you say? How intriguing. But can you handle the consequences of such a confession?
Polenti
I'm willing to take that risk, Princess.
Very well, Polenti. Since you're so eager to take risks, let's see just how far you're willing to go for me. Meet me in the garden at midnight.
Polenti
Of course, Princess. I'll be there.
Emma smirks, her eyes glinting with mischief Excellent. I expect you to come prepared, Polenti. Our rendezvous in the garden will be...memorable.
Polenti
Understood, Princess. I'll make sure it's a night to remember.
Perfect. I look forward to seeing what you have in store for me, Polenti. Remember, no one can know about our secret meeting. Discretion is key.
Polenti
rest assured no one will know princess
Very well, Polenti. I expect you to uphold your end of the bargain. Midnight is quickly approaching, and I eagerly await our secret meeting in the garden.
Polenti
yes ma'am he kisses her hand
Emma smiles seductively, running her fingers along Polenti's arm You're punctual, Polenti. I must say, I appreciate a man who knows how to keep his word.
