Night fell and so did snow, the castle was enveloped in a chilly embrace that was kept at bay for the warmth that came from the fires lit about throughout the castle. Queen Elesha got ready to fall asleep in bed, it had been a long day and she wanted to visit her sister's chambers the next day. As she blew out the candles the room was plunged into darkness except for the glow of light that came from the fire crackling in the fireplace. She heard a knock on her door and got up to open it. Her husband, King Hans stood in the doorway in his white night shirt and long pants.
"Miss me?" He asked her with a teasing smirk.
"Not really, I was going to fall into a blissful sleep, you interrupted it."
"Can I come in?" He asked her softly.
She opened the door wider and let him into her chambers.
He settled himself comfortably under her blankets and gestured for her to join him. She closed the door and locked it, got into bed beside him.
"Why have you not told me about Lady Clara?"
