“The moment I crossed into your waters, I planned to stay a while. I have a lot of unused leave I think I have cause to cash in. I would like to visit each of the main Isles actually. It would give me a chance, also, to update our dismal nautical charting.”
Owen kept close to Julianna as she led him through the streets out of gentlemanly habit. If she wouldn’t take his arm, he would stay by her side as best as he could. Keeping her company was effortless likely due to her generous hospitality and his easy charm. Their arms brushed against one another as they walked as if they had known each other for years. Owen noted that Julianna wasn’t obviously bothered by the intermittent contact.
He perked up, eyebrows climbing when she revealed she was part Eskran. “Really? You should visit sometime! Let me pay you back for all this.” He suggested excitedly. “You can stay with my family. They will, no doubt, give you the full treatment. We’re a rather proud Eskran family. They would insist you get in touch with your roots.” He admitted the last part a bit sheepishly as if embarrassed by how tribal his family could be at times. For some it was delightful. For others it was overbearing.
His fingers fell away from her arm trailing slightly across her skin. A hint of a pout played out on his lips when she laughed at his expense. This was quickly corrected by the boost to his ego to learn the women found him attractive. Lips parted in a smirk and Owen folded his arms over his chest which only accentuated the shape of his biceps. “Well then. I’m glad I’m earning your hospitable treatment in some way or another.” He used ‘your’ pointedly playfully implying that she was only feeding him as an excuse to parade him around the marketplace like a prized dog.
No sooner had he made this suggestive remark and she was moving off to address the children who called for her attention. He approached to observe the exchange, staying back enough so as to avoid looming over them all. Owen found himself involuntarily beaming down at the display watching ‘Lady Julianna’ indulge the children with natural affection. He acted shocked himself, gasping and throwing his hand dramatically over his mouth, when Julianna revealed the fortune in candy she would pay for the homemade bracelets. After the kids retreated to enjoy their sweets, Owen thrust out his hand to her without hesitation to accept whatever prize she indicated that she planned to give him.
Owen stopped mid-step, planting his feet, and folding his arms once again over his chest when she inquired about his sleeping arrangements. A strongly defensive stance. “What am I, the Fleet Commander of the Covenant of Allied Forces Navy on official military business, not invited to stay at the palace?”
His voice climbed in pitch to mark his mock outrage. Owen didn’t think she would allow her disruptive foreign guest the honor, but that didn’t mean he wouldn’t ask in that cocky teasing way of his.
