Bealor laughed, "Never mind I think a drink shall be enough."

Alys nodded and topped up their cups. She handed Bealor his glass and was about to make the toast when an awful thought occured to her.
"Before we drink, there's something I need to tell you, because it might...change matters. I'm not a maiden. I had a lover once, more than two years ago. Does that trouble you?"

"It may not please my mother but it does not worry me."

Relieved, she smiled at him.
"That's good to know. We needn't tell your mother, after all, but you hd the right to know. Have you had a woman, Bealor?"
She hoped he had; it would be easier if both of them knew what they were doing.

At the question Bealor went red, "Well there was one girl who was very pretty. I meet her in Longbow Hall."

"Oh, that's alright then. I just wanted to be sure you knew what to do in the marriage bed. It would be...odd if I had to show you. When do you want to marry?"

"Would be you content to wait till after the Grand Council?"

"Oh, yes, that's fine with me. Until a few minutes ago I never thought to wed at all so I'm happy to wait," Alys said. "I don't want to make the decisions about those things anyway. It means nothing to me, so long as we're both happy with our choice."

Bealor raised a glass, "To Happiness."

"To happiness," Alys agreed.
She drank deep and smiled at her betrothed - how odd it sounded even in her own mind. Then she leaned forward and kissed Bealor on the mouth.

Bealor was slightly shocked but soon leaned into the kiss and brought his free hand up to hold the back of Alys hair.

Alys deepened the kiss as she started to enjoy it. She felt the beginnings of desire and drew back before matters got out of hand. She smiled at Bealor.
"Well, I think we will get along fine, don't you?"

Bealor not only enjoyed the kiss but was sad as it ended, "Umm yes I think that we will."

"I'm glad we're agreed. I would so hate to be married to a man I did not desire."

"Yes that would be a tragedy." Bealor seems somewhat distracted.
