Alexandria waved her hand and gave a laugh, the sound like chiming bells as she continued to walk down the path, her bright blue dress fluttering about behind her with each step.
“I’m not upset with you, although, I could be if I wanted to.� She gave a sly smile back to him from beneath the lip of the hat, and continued walking. “I just think it’s foolish that he would hire a guard for me. He knows perfectly well that I can take car of myself. I can work a sword, you know?� She asked him, he mouth not stopping once it had started.
When she reached the door to the large manor, she pushed it open and pulled the hat from her head, her wavy blonde hair falling forward to brush her cheeks. The hair wasn’t long, chopped just to brush her shoulders, but somehow it fit her personality.
“If you’ll just follow me. No doubt he’s in some meeting room, arched over a book.� She gave a laugh as she moved towards a table, dropping the hat, book, and candy as her free hand brushed through her curls. She looked over her shoulders towards the man, gave a slightly encouraging smile, before leading him through the manor towards an oak door. After giving a gentle tap, she took a step in to see her father there.
“Hello father.� She gave a grin, before holding the door open for this guard.
“This is…actually, I don’t believe we’ve introduced ourselves. Well, he certainly knew my name, seeing as how you hired him for a pointless job.� Her words were almost begging for confrontation. Confrontation she would feel horrible about later.
