RE: Me and Duke - A princess for a price
“It should take about three months. That’s how long we want to contract you for, and it should cover all the time from reconnaissance, planning, and even the capture and drop off.”
The dark figure in the room sat opposite of the assassin, face hidden underneath the shadow of her hooded cloak. At the back of the room were a pair of heavily armed men, no doubt this figure’s escorts. If this woman could afford and needed these escorts then he must have been important or at the very least a noblewoman who needed the protection of two men in full plate while in the room with an assassin. At least the assassin was kind enough to pull his black hood down and reveal himself to the one who was contracting him, red eyes stared forward while black hair was tied back in a ponytail. The youthful face stared at her with an inquisitive look. ”You ask for me to bring her in alive, wouldn’t killing her gain you the same thing if you want her out of the way?” The cloaked female shook her head and inched a little closer as she leaned into the table. “The princess is good to me out of the way, but not dead. It’ll help me influence her father more if he is distracted looking for his daughter.” Oh. So she was someone close to the king. Interesting.
Standing, the guards placed their hands on the blades before the assassin raised his right hand. Equipped onto the hand was a clawed gauntlet with terraced plates running up the forearm, and inset into the center of the palm was a jewel that seemed to send lines of power running throughout the arcane engravings in it. ”Tsk tsk. No need for that gentlemen. If I wanted to kill your mistress she’d already be dead and you along with her.” His attention then returned to the figure seated before him. ”As for you, my lady. I will get her and deliver her to the place you have requested. A royal however, is triple the fee since you want the princess and you want her alive.” She smiled under the hood and reached over and shook hands with the assassin all the while knowing exactly what she was going to embroil him in.

Two months of preparation had gone by and he had picked out a perfect winter night to move in on the palace. All the guards were more concerned with keeping themselves warm out on the walls than they were worried about an intruder. Snow was still falling and the assassin had easily infiltrated past the palace walls and was making his way towards the keep. He kept his magic powered down to avoid drawing any attention to the orb in his right hand. Hiding behind a stack of crates in the courtyard he quickly pulled a passing guard and silenced him with a blade to the throat bypassing most of the plate to dispatch him.
Twisting and turning through hidden passages within the castle, the assassin made his way into the royal baths. He knew that the princess usually took her bath around this time and it would be as good as any of a moment to collect her. The escorts would be few, and her guards would not be allowed anywhere near the baths. Silently he pulled himself into an alcove within the baths, his eyes trained on entrance waiting for the right moment to strike.

RE: Me and Duke - A princess for a price
Amelia smiled as she watched the children in the court yard play. How she missed playing like that as a young one. She was now 21 and unable to act like a child any longer, but it didn't remove the desire to. Her emerald green eyes watched over the young as they played, her hands folded neatly on her dress. She was sitting in a metal bench overseeing the garden.
"Miss, can we go out of the gates?" The children asked, begging to leave the protective layer of the castle.
"Goodness no children, it's dangerous out there, even I haven't been out of these walls. I was born here and here I shall remain."
"Aww you're no fun miss, but alright..." The children said.
She smiled at their naivety and continued to watch over them till the sun drew it's last breath and lay down to sleep. The darkness crept over the land as she retired back towards her room to sleep. First though, she wanted to take a bath. She had the maids ready the water for her as she went off to get undressed, pulling on her robe. She slowly made her way back down the hall to the baths, entering the room. The room had no door, the outside had a door but the inside was just a huge tub-like sauna with a wooden bench and towels hung on a wall. The floor was stone and marble and hte walls were also. She slowly climbed into the tub dropping the robe from her shoulders as she did, no doubt giving the assassin quite a nice view before she slipped into the water. The water was hot, with soap laying on a dish beside the tub. She exended her hand to get the soap and once it was firmly in her hands she started to lather up her body, first lathering her breasts, then the rest of her body, standing to get her entire body before going back into the water and completely washing herself. It didn't take long however, and soon she was finished with her bath and got out, wrapping the robe around herself and starting to make her way out of the room, back to her own. She had no idea what about about to happen.

RE: Me and Duke - A princess for a price
As soon as Princess Amelia stepped into the bath he watched her every step of the way. Each number of steps that she made was memorized and the way she moved categorized in his mind so that he would know what to look for if a certain part of her body was about to move. Shifting forward slightly, he felt his breath catch in his throat as she disrobed then began to wash herself. His metal claw clicked idly on the stone that he gripped on as he felt that hunger grow in him, that desire to take her flesh for his own, but he had to keep his professionalism and keep everything inside. She was to be delivered, unhurt and unspoiled. It was a bit of a shame. He had been hired many times to capture and deliver noblewomen, but never had he ever been allowed a chance to sample their youthful and untainted flesh. Perhaps he might get a taste once the princess was good and subdued.
Slowly he crept out of the alcove and silently stepped across the wet stone towards the princess. As he crept along he silently pulled a dagger into his left hand while keeping the clawed metal right hand up with the blue gem of his palm facing towards her. Using his magic on her would not be the most prudent thing, but at the very least it would immobilize her. Nearing her he held his breath as if she would hear him and turn around at the last second and completely spoil the surprise. This never came to fruition as he pounced on her like a wild cat. With his right hand clasping up around her mouth he pressed the tip of his dagger up against her back and pulled her away from the exit. "Well hello princess. I have someone who would like to speak with you, but first," his right hand glowed as the moisture in the air coalesced around Amelia's mouth and froze shut, "a little something to keep you from calling out your guards. Play nice and you won't even have a bruise. Act out," he pressed the blade against her back more for emphasis, "and I won't hesitate to beat you a little to encourage your cooperation. Now, what's say we get out of here?"

RE: Me and Duke - A princess for a price
The first thing she thought about was how cold it was instantly, and a voice that chilled her, the same as the ice that froze over her mouth. She touched it and her eyes went wide, she could feel something against her back and she shuddered to think what that might feel like if he decided to impale her on it. She shook with fear and went completely still, knowing it was going to be easier on her not to fight, and just to hope someone saw her. She couldn't talk, she could only stand there and wait for his instructions. Everyone had gone to bed, she had sent her guards away for her bath time, a foolish mistake she now saw. She quivered in the face of evil which really had no face at all, just a horrid background noise of evil words spoken under true duress.

RE: Me and Duke - A princess for a price
It seemed almost too easy for him. Part of him was expecting and even wanted a struggle, but it made things much easier that she decided to give in and not bother to rail against him, especially since it meant that no one would be able to hear her. Pulling the dagger from her back he kept his other arm around her neck as he smirked. ”Good. Looks like you’ll be a happy little puppet afterall, won’t you?” He guided her over to the alcove where he had been hiding and then dropped the sack he had been carrying over his shoulder. ”Inside is a modest dress, some boots and smallclothes. Put them on and we’ll be on our way. No need for you to freeze out there in the cold, especially with such a long journey ahead of us.”
His eyes were upon her the entire time and he brandished his dagger and claws threateningly at her to make sure she cooperated. Each time she moved he would lick his lips a bit, watching as she dropped the robe and undressed then redressed herself. Again he felt that hunger growing in him, but he kept it in check. Such a lovely piece of meat before him, so lovely and yet according to his contact, untouchable by any standards. Maybe he would have fun with her once they were on the road, but right here in the palace there were too many potential sets of eyes and ears for him to do such a thing discreetly.
Once she was dressed he led her out of the bath and quietly moved towards where the guards were. Despite having the princess bound in the mouth, he decided that her hands would be as a nuisance and so he froze a set of shackles around her wrists to keep her from doing anything else stupid. With the silence and efficiency only an assassin could wield he dispatched the two guards at the entrance of the bath then started guiding her down the halls. While he had chosen the night with the fewest patrols and the route that was rarely traveled he knew that anything could go wrong.

RE: Me and Duke - A princess for a price
The first thing she realized was that he was behind her, guiding her somewhere. It seemed to be an area where she could change while he watched her. She dropped the robe she was wearing and quickly changed, hiding as much of her perfect body from him as she could. Her mouth was starting to hurt from the ice that sealed her lips. She shivered from the cold. It was ironic he said there was no need for her to freeze. She shot him a glare when he froze her hands together, which just made her even colder. He dragged her along with him and she watched as her castle she called home started becoming but a faint memory. It wasn't long before she lost feeling in her arms as the ice started to stop bloodflow. He must not have thought about that, the ice was still ice, and it was still extremely cold. She started to shiver as her body temperature due to the outside air, and the shackles/gag, started to drop her body temperature quite fast. She didn't know where they were going, but she knew it couldn't be good no matter where they were headed.
