Alexa was inside the water tub, trying to think of what to do next, when the First Prince woke up growling and stretching. She watched him grope the mattress for the body that was supposed to be beside him, and then quickly grab the sword in reflex reaction.
"I'm here," she said. "I just thought you needed to get some more sleep."
Water properly covered her body to her shoulders, so she wasn't concerned about it.
She had never thought about how painful it was for Klaus to carry her body along until she saw him the previous morning. She had to tell him what had happened at Kielstadt, and with Alexander, and she was sure the Prince would be furious.
Maybe he wanted to return to Kielstadt, and Alexa even fought about this option.
Due to the Lotus potion, Alexander had severed his soul's ties to his body.
