It happened a few days before the group's departure to Exodus. The princess invited Alex, and when he came, they talked for half an hour before silence permeated the room. Artemia refused that Alex leaves but didn't say anything; she only invited him to sit on the bed.
The two looked at each other before Alex chuckled; he would be a fool if he did not understand what was going on, what Artemia wanted. Usually, she might be good at expressing her stances, controlling most of the decisions, but they existed areas where she was not good at, like in the current situation. He should take the lead; she was his fiancee, after all.
Alex moved and embraced Artemia from behind, sudden embrace made the always confident princess tremble, but she accepted it.
Finally, Artemia opened her mouth and said.
''I can't believe I'm doing this again." Artemia sighed.
