He smirked down at her. "If I told you what troubles I've gotten into already, you'd be standing there looking all pretty for hours."

"I don't look pretty right now." she told him, picking at the cuff of he chemise. "I look like I a ready for bed but point taken. Are you going to take me riding today? Or is it voice lessons?"
She stretched out, yawning. Her bones were so stiff even after a good soak that she felt as if she might fall apart from the tension in her body. No matter much she worked she never got used to long and hard days like that.

Rena knocked on Nathaniels door politely. When there was no response, she slowly opened the door and called out that she was coming in. She had once accidently walked in on the prince fully nude, and wanted to not repeat this mistake. Realising no one was there, Rena began cleaning, starting with stripping the bed. After the room was stripped of all potentially dirty laundry, including clothes, Rena started to dust. Only a few minutes in, she noticed an open drawer on his writing desk, with a few papers inside. "Hmmm..I wonder if...no I shouldnt.."

He smirked and said. "Well then, if you look so ready for bed why not crawl into mine?" He winked playfully at her and casually wrapped an arm around her waist. "You look great, don't worry. I just need to go pick up a jacket, we'll go horse-back riding." Nathaniel lead her with him down the hallway towards his room.

Her skin burned hotly at his choice of words. While they had grown rather amorous in their affections they hadn't shared each other's body with one another. Yet. Andromeda was going to get the courage, one day, to make a move on him in that way. For then she was happy to be in his company.
She followed him to his room, leaning against him.
"I am excited to go horseback riding again. Its been awhile since you've let me ride with you and I've missed it sorely." She said. She turned her gaze towards him and a smile crossed her lips. It was odd that someone like her was merely a servant and, perhaps, she wasn't meant to be one.

Rena shuffled through the papers in the prince's desk. She was so busy being nosy, in fact, that she failed to hear the two approaching the door. "I wonder if theres anything about Andromeda in here...."

He grinned at her. "You don't have to wait for me to take you. Just ask me anytime, I'm usually free." As he rounded the corner, he opened the door to his room. Immediately catching Rena in his drawers. Without saying a word, he silently let go of Andromeda and walked up behind her. He placed a hand on her shoulder and said softly into her ear, "Going through people's drawers isn't good Rena." His voice was icy cold.

Andromeda was first shocked and then angry to see Rena going through Nathaniel's drawers. Her cheeks flushed with the strong emotion and she placed her hands on her hips. Clearly the maid had an unhealthy obsession with the prince but this was downright creepy. Her stomach churned a little with the thoughts that swam through her mind.
"Disgusting," she muttered to herself, turning her nose up.

Rena jumped slightly when she felt a hand on her shoulder. Hearing the prince's cold tone made her skin break out in goosebumps. She shoved the papers back and slammed the drawer shut. "Y..your highness, I was j-just uh..straightening up." She chuckled nervously and stood there, perfectly still.

Nathaniel grit his teeth. Was she actually going through that drawer? It held .. that wasn't the point. She was actually going though his drawers! That was unacceptable. He tilted her chin up and asked softly, "What is it that you want from me? To like you? After doing this?" He rolled his eyes and walked over to grab his jacket.

There was a moment's pity that crossed Andromeda's face. It was a shame that someone as lovely as Rena had to stoop to something so lowly just to get the attention of the person she liked. Her hand pressed to her cheek and she reached out for Nathaniel, hoping her touch would soothe this anger some. Her own was calming in light of everything.
"Lets just leave her," she told him. "Clearly she has nothing else going for her."

Rena dropped her head, tears falling down her cheeks. She clenched her fists and turned to Andromeda, glaring through her tears. "I-I don't need y-your pitty! He'll throw you away too, you know! As soon as he gets what he wants!" with that she ran out of the room and down the hall.

Nathaniel sighed. He hated seeing women cry. With a deep breath, he grabbed his jacket and slung it over his shoulders. "Let's go." He said quite stiffly.

She wondered if Nathaniel were angry at her for making Rena cry. There was agitation in him. Perhaps he really did prefer her over Andromeda. Golden brown eyes widened in fear and she looked towards her feet.
"Okay," she said softly. "I should probably dress in something more than a chemise though."
It was a thin piece of fabric that protected against nothing and, in the right light, was practically see through. The piece had been worn to near rags.

He grabbed one of his other coats that were longer than her dress and handed it to her. "No time for that." He snapped at her. He grit his teeth, what the hell was he doing? Why was he being such a d**k to her? Massaging his temple with his fingers, he continued walking out of his room.
Was it that blood that he had drank a few weeks ago? No that couldn't be. Maybe he was just moody. That had to be it. The quicker he was outside, the better.
