(are you going to turn her?))

She dreamt it was a blizzard and so cold. She was in a field getting colder and colder until she thought she might freeze but then she heard a voice calling her name and got up running towards it. The field she had almost died in cleared and a perfect garden sparkling with snow surrounded her. She looked and looked for the voice until she came to a tower. She ran up the stairs but it seemed to take weeks of spiraling stairs until she reached the top. Finally she was At the top of the tower and pulling open the large oak door to finally see whoever had been calling her name when the dream ended and as she woke it slipped from her memory. Although there was something familiar about the voice calling her name.

((Magnus is a dark mage, not a vampire lol))
She would awaken back in their room, Magnus still holding her. In his sleep he kept calling her name, kept wanting to be with her.
He wanted to protect her, for her to have the best life she could, for her to be the princess again, not just a forgotten legend.

She woke up tiered. Tiered of it all she just wanted to go away and hide leaving the rest of the world to deal with everything. She was content to lay bundled up beside him in his cloak of soft material for a while and found when she tried to move she was sill a bit dopey but she managed to sit up a bit. Most of the pain had gone and her main ailment was weakness but that wouldn't kill her. She would have called out to the man to wake him but realized for the first time she had no title to address him by.

He slowly opened his eyes and realized that the announcement was soon,"Damn it!" he yelled, leaning up with her. He in almost no time her brushed her hair, washed her face, made her look beautiful, despite the raggidy dress she wore. He took her hand and led her to the square, looking up at the officials,"Alright...and...you can call me Magnus." he told her.

It all happened so fast she almost didn't have a chance to argue and anyway she was to tiered from healing to put up any sort of resistance. She just went along rather placidly. Although her insides were doing back flips, wasn't the square where the guillotine had been? "Magnus...." she wined as if asking him to reconsider.

He ignored her, eventually bringing her up, and rather rudely barging in on the square,"Excuse me...but with me is the lost princess of the kingdom. She's returned..."
The people all looked at her, the men on stage dumbfounded, before they cheered for her.
He looked down at her and said to her,"I'll be your advisor...until you're old enough to rule..."

Niave as she was she wasn't silly and knew some people still wanted a reveloution so she tried to edge behind magnus. Afterall it was only natural she was uncertain after the last weeks events.

Eventually she and Magnus were led by the guards to the castle, as the knights were sworn to protect her. The place was actually in the midst of repairs so it wasn't so bad. She was seated at the throne, while he stood beside her. He looked down at her as they waited for the "other advisors" to join them.

"Magnus? I'm the princess right? I can do what i want and everyone listens correct?" she asked planning

"Yes, but...do not make the same mistakes as your father. As long as you do what is right, you will thrive as princess." He layed his hand on her shoulder.

"Well what if i Gave it to you. You seem to want it and you would do good" she said. The idea of ruling frightened her with the responsiblity. "I won't do it any good!"

"M..Me?" he asked her, a little flattered by her offering it to him,"But...hm...no, it's...yours. I couldn't take it from you, and besides..."
He knelt down to her on the throne, looking into her eyes,"You would just regain it anyways..."
((wanna do another one while we do this one, like in a seperate pm?))

((what kind of one?))
"Do I have to sit on the throne the whole time? I would like dinner and to get changed please" She smiled up at him hoping he would come with her. She didn't want to be alone

(I'll send you it in another pm))
"No, you don't have to sit here all the time..." he told her, looking down a bit disappointed. He was just about to ask her to marry him, but now it seemed inappropriate.

"Good come with me" She took his hand and lead him through the halls untill she came to one of the many libraries and looked under a small table pulling up the persian carpet. She pulled out a small silver pocket watch encrusted with gems. slightly tarnished but still beautiful. It didn't tell the time anymore. "I found this years ago with my gran Apparently hundreds of years ago When the royal line before ours took over was losing a war it was hidden here. I knew it would still be here and not looted. It's a secret thing. I want you to have it." She turned the time dial to a certain time and the back sprung open revaling a hidden compartment. Much like the poison rings it had been used by courtiers too hold poison or other secrets. It reminded her of him. Not so much because of the poison but it was something special that wasn't stained by the dark past of the family.

Magnus held the watch in his hand, closing his eyes as he pocketed it,"Thank...you..." he told her, looking down into her eyes,"...Listen...I want...to tell you something."
Reaching into his other pocket he pulled out something, a beautiful ring,"Princess...I...love you."
