[b]Ella quietly stared back at Marken, unsure if he was being serious right now. It seemed like he was being serious, but she couldn't quite tell. He could just be making fun of her. Chewing her lip, Ella inched closer, finding herself unable to deny an offer from Marken, even if he might be using it as a chance to make fun of her.

Leaning up, Ella quickly gave the prince a peck on the cheek, goading him on a little. If he was serious, he would give her a more serious kiss. She wasn't going to just throw herself at him and let him assume she was some harlot. She wasn't that desperate to give him his way.

"H-happy now?" Ella mumbled, looking away in embarrassment.[/b]
