Isabella's eyes went wide as he came nearer to her. She would have kicked him if she had been able and made a mental note to do so as soon as he was stupid enough to untie her.
"Human, you say? I don't believe that for a second. You kill people for a living and you took me away from my home!"

"You know, not everyone is lucky enough to be a princess. If I live like this, it is because little alternative I have. This job will reward me decently. I might be able to leave this bussiness and start some small merchant company. Maybe, and only maybe, I'll live like a 'human' like you say. Or, maybe, I'll still be something below you, and kill people like an animal to survive".
She had sparked a fire of rage within his heart. All his life, reminded in a second. And he stormed out of the room. Leaving the room in silence.

Isabella was crushed, but she thought, Lucky, you say? If you think it's so easy, try it for a day or two.. She simply waited for him to return, she did not call out for him, but she would have liked to, even though he was not on her side, he was not really her enemy either..

A few minutes later, he returned with a small tray with bread and some soup. And he untied her hands so she could eat.
"There, even if you're made of silk and gold, you need to eat..."
And, taking his distance, he sat on a nearby box he had as a chair.

Isabella decided not to strike him, as she had thought she would.
"I am NOT made of silk or gold. I am human, just as you are...And I will only eat this if you try it first yourself."

"Make your mind, princess. Am I human? Or am I not? And, fear not about the food. I hadn't planned to have you here, so I'll have to sacrifice my food for you"
Then, he remaint sit in his place, watching the roof where they were staying. It was pretty much a shabby place, almost falling down. Indeed, a poor home. If it could be even called that.

"If you say you are human, then I suppose you are. I was wrong, and I'm sorry. You don't have to give up your food for me, here, have it. I'm not really hungry at the moment..." Isabella reaches out to hand the food to him.

"You don't sound too convinced. Eat, you'll need it... I bet you're used to eating something more. I guess... and I owe you an apology as well..."
And with the apology, he offered a small, sincere smile. That was all he had, after all.

She became a little angry once again. "Why would I need it? All I'm going to be doing is laying here anyway."

"I don't know what to tell you anymore".
And he remaint quiet then. Watching time pass by. With no clock to tell the time, he wouldn't mind about it. And spent his time lonely. With Isabella there, with him, he could imagine he wouldn't feel so lonely or solitary. But... he felt even more lonely than ever.

Isabella could almost feel the lonliness radiating from him. She wanted to comfort him but realized two things...One, she was tied up. And, two, he had kidnapped her, so she wasn't allowed to feel any sympathy.

"I'm really sorry. I guess... I've never felt this before. Repentment, it is called? Since, well... I've been alone since I can remember, except by the one that trained me for my job. But, I bet you don't mind about that. I... guess you are always worried about parades, and parties and that kind of royal stuff..."

Isabella sighed, trying not to get angry with him, how could he possibly understand? She didn't really understand him either, so it was fair to say that he couldn't understand about her. "That's not true. I think you know that, you just don't want to believe it..Just like I don't want to believe that you can be human and still kill people for a living."

"I don't know. I... just deal with life as it comes. People want someone dead, they call me. That's my life, ending others'... care to share your part of the life?"
It seemed that a rich life would make people really vain. Like this girl...

((I can go a few ways here, I can make this really dramatic, and say something that will shock your character, or I can just say that getting dressed for all those parties is harder than it sounds...))
