"We need to talk," Alexa took the little nightingale with her under a tree, while Klaus prepared the horses for their departure.
A little earlier, as soon as day dawned, Klaus called for her to perform an appropriate farewell to Ulrich and Johannes. He had made mounds of earth and placed crosses on them. They said a respectful prayer, and Klaus promised to help their families throughout his life.
Coming from a person like him, Alexa knew he meant it.
Alexa discreetly buried a coin in each grave, just in case.
As they prepared to leave, Alexa took the time to continue her conversation with Alexander.
They had never been serious about their marriage, and the only time they did, Alexander said he wanted to annul the marriage.
"Why do you want to annul our wedding?"
~ Does it make any sense that we are husband and wife? ~ Alexander's response didn't take long, much to the Princess's surprise.
