IT WAS ALMOST TOO CONVENIENT that no one attempted to keep him from portalling into the queen’s chambers , though he felt bad for showing up out of nowhere without letting her know first . a little bit , anyway . the warlock made a mental note to discuss options with her , but after the night of saints and sinners there was no better way to get her without her guards and this was something that he wanted to do in private . he waited behind the door , placing a gentle hand over her mouth after she closed it . ❛ don’t be frightened . ❜ leopold whispered ever so softly , though his hand lingered for a moment longer , prepared to muffle any startled noises so that she would not alert her guards . he slowly spun her around , unable to suppress the hint of a cheeky smile on his lips . ❛ i’m so sorry . ❜ he whispered . ❛ but i needed to see you . ❜ and not in a downworlder meeting or an official audience with the queen . he glanced over his shoulder and dragged her away from the door so he could raise his voice to a normal level . ❛ are you okay ? ❜ blue eyes wandered over her features , drinking them in , but he only waited for so long before he chose to tell her why he came here . ❛ there is something i have to show you , but it means that i will have to steal you away for an hour or two . i’ll make it quick , i promise . ❜ and he’d even cast a spell to make the guards think their queen was resting , should they check up on her . extending his hand , he gave her one of his best puppy expressions . ❛ i won’t take no for an answer . ❜ that part was only a tease . leo would respect it if she could not join him right now , he simply hoped that he would not have to do more convincing . this was all for her , after all .
