It did not need to be said that she was here against her will.
"And even if i had some choice in the matter, do you think i would leave matters of state in someone else's hands simply to test the waters of someone like you?"

Inside she still raged. The sting of her brother's last kiss was lingering in her heart, and now... now she was here, with nothing but confusion and alienation to comfort her pains.
