The queen looks out of the window and lets out a frustrated sigh.
"Feeling tensed, Maru?" the famed knight looked at her with worry.
"I can massage your head," he volunteered. He smiled, he can finally act freely with her now that they were behind closed doors.
He hugged her from behind, in his embrace the queen felt like a child. His towering frame of 6'2 encapsulates the queen's body who barely stands at 5 feet.
"That sounds like heaven," the queen smiled softly in response to his offer.
"You look so cute when you smile", he slowly massaged her head and kissed her forehead adoringly.
"What will the royal knights say if they see their captain doing sweet things like this?" she teased him, enjoying the way his fingers knead her forehead gently.
She finds it an irony to find someone so brave and strong and so strict in the face of his duty, to be behaving this romantic when it was just them left behind.
