As night fell upon the kingdom, the time for Zayne to return to the palace to hear the princess's answer had come.
Rose walked with him to the door. She thought of convincing Zayne to return once he was done but did not want to appear too needy. It wasn't a long ride away from the palace where they couldn't see each other tomorrow and they had already enjoyed many hours together.
What would Zayne think if she grabbed his hand and asked him to stay longer? A room could quickly be prepared for him and Rose was certain no one here would let it get out that he had spent the night.
The kingdom had other things to worry about instead of where Zayne slept at night.
Rose knew she just had to give it a try to get him to stay but she again thought it was too much.
"Rose," Zayne stopped her before she missed her step. "Are you daydreaming as you walk?"
