Drake looked at her, his eyes soft, slightly sad, "Before I do what I was sent here to do." he replied as he turned and left, vanishing out the door to the balcony. He had to do his job, or he would be killed, and he cared about Elizabeth, and he was not going to let the king he was sent to kill take her away from him. He saw the love she was starting to feel for him, and that caused him pain, and fury, but he knew, he knew that the fury would make him rash, and it could get him caught. He moved silently threw the garden, he looked around, the flowers were beautiful, but he did not notice. His training taught him to stay in the shadows, and he did, he was not going to get caught when he was so close to taking out this King that was just tearing apart his kingdom. He looked up at the sky and sighed softly, he knew the escape would be the hard part, this King, no matter how terrible had loyal knights, and those alwas caused him problems.
Erik ndded as he smiled at her gently, "Go rest." he told her softly, he needed to keep himself sharp, especialy with this new knight around, something about Drake bothered him and put him on edge, and he did not like it. He had vowed to protect the King with his life, even if Nathan was failing his kingdom, Erik would stand by his oath until the very end. But now, he loved Rose, it made his heart ache to think that he may die, and never have a family, to lose Rose would be worse then losing his king, and he knew that was a terrible thing for a knight sworn to protect the king to be thinking.
