Arielle was nearly startled by Wolfida's entrance. She had had her full attention on the Bloodfiends, so she had no idea the man was even there.

The Bloodfiends sensed that the man was a stronger opponent than the girl, so two of them charged at him at the same time.

The 3rd came at Arielle. The princess side stepped and slashed at the beast just as before.

The 4th Bloodfiend got up, recovered from the girl's previous blow.

"King Roberto, what is this about? I'm confused." Jeanne told him when they were alone.

"I'm not going to marry Bellisa." He replied.

"Why wouldn't you.."

He cut her off. "I took your maidenhood and as a man I must take responsibility for that. I cannot ignore that and let your honor, my honor and those of our families stay tainted. As such I will be breaking my betrothal."

"Rob, you can't do that. I didn't spend the night with you to obligate you into anything." the soldier retorted. "That was not my intention."

"Jeanne that may not have been your intention but that is what I must do. Honor dictates..."

This time it was her that cut him off. "No. I don't accept it. I won't let you throw your betrothal for the sake of honor. Besides, breaking your oath of betrothal will also taint your honor." She looked mad at him, which surprised the young king. Before Rob could argue with her she began to walk away.

Rob grabbed her arm. "Jeanne...that isn't the real reason for my choice."
