After they finished their lunch, Odette watched as Prince Alexander wiped his mouth with a piece of embroidered cloth, so she followed suit.
He chuckled seeing her trying to imitate him, and grew even fonder as she asked, "Y-Your Highness, I'm sorry if my etiquette isn't up to your standard. I… uh… I am not used to it…"
"I know that you must've been suffering after being a captive for so long that you've forgotten noble etiquette, so you wouldn't need to worry," Prince Alexander said. He got up and walked towards Odette. He stretched his hand and opened his palm, "Now if you don't mind, why don't we take a walk around the garden? I am sure you'd find my garden pleasant."
"S-sure…" Odette accepted his hand and they walked side by side through the long corridor towards the garden.
The maids had been watching from afar, and couldn't help but sigh as one of them muttered, "It seems that we will finally have a new queen."
