Reclining back in her seat again, her mind ran over the crazy plan. This many engagements and break-ups would certainly not make her...popular, and ruin her chances of a serious marriage, but honestly, she didn't care. She wasn't planning on getting married off, anyway; the idea of marrying someone she scarcely knew and praying they could learn to at least care about each other was...well, maybe she'd been ruined by too many epic stories. Still, if everything went well, she could become a knight, and then all this stuff wouldn't matter so much.
If she was going to ever have a relationship at all, she wanted one on her terms, not something that was dictated to her.
Which posed an interesting question. She would be getting an awful lot out of Ryk doing this for her. But Ryk...
Looking at him sidelong, she tilted her head. "Wait. What are you getting out of this?" she asked. "I mean, are you honestly just offering out of kindness and concern? That's kind of a big, crazy jump to make. Jarrett didn't even offer, it just accidentally happened."
