Ella ate in silence with the rest of the girls. None of them could ever pick a interesting topic it seemed. She was doomed to listen to them go on and on about something boring for the rest of the time she was here. They soon left the dining area and were on there way back to the Privy Chambers. Ella was asked once they returned to the chambers to be one of the dancers tonight at the party. Not being able to refuse the Queen, Ella accepted the offer with a smile.
Alexander lifted the girl by the waist and placed her on the horse. He bowed to her and left once he was finished. He had seen a new look in her eyes and he liked it, but the Queen would surely not. He did not know how to tell the girl that, so he decided to simply let it be and if upon arrival she still had the look he would do something or say something. He mounted his own horse and soon they were off. The castle was not even a day away and if they traveled wisely they would arrive tonight and with time for Alexander to get the girls gown.
