Odette's hands were killing her, the cuffs against her wrists had started to tear through her skin. Her skin looked dirtier then it ever had and her hair felt tangled and gross. Joseph didn't bother to let Odette bathe or do much of anything for that matter. The only person who even talked to her these days was Michael, the man she was beginning to care for again. She was pretty sure someone would call her crazy for having feelings for a known killer. A man who had lied to her no less, she stood up and tried to find a position where it didn't hurt to stand or move. Had her parents given up hope on where she even was? Or were they still looking for her? She hoped that John was safe, although she hadn't heard anything about the Kingdom itself. She was pretty sure, she never would either.

Calm and heavy steps could the be heard getting closer to the princess room, shortly followed by the door opening and letting in light. Micheal, as emotionless as ever, casually then walked over to Odette, but this time he wasn't hear to giver her food, or even have one of their 'talks' they've grown accustumed to ahve since her capture. This time, he had a clean stock of clothes with him, which he put aside once he kentl down on the floor beside her, and wordlessly untied her. With not as much as a glance upat her face, Miceahlgently took hold of her wrist, eyeing the cuts and abused skin carefully before taking out a clean, damp cloth, as well as some sort of oniment, and then began to treat the wound.

Odette blinked at Michael in confusion as he stepped in, she watched as he untied her and then began to clean her wounds. She bit down on her lip to keep from making any noise as the cloth went over her sore wrists. "Thank you." She said quietly as she studied Michael out of the corner of her eye. He did things like this occasionally and every single time, it made her like him more. If he knew what kind of an effect he had on her, Odette wasn't yet aware of it but she was relieved that he helped her. Now if only she could go home, but if she went home she'd be expected to marry Phillip. She'd never be allowed outside the castle ever again, and that meant not seeing Michael. That thought bothered her a lot more then she knew how to deal with. "Have you heard any news about my family?" She asked after a moment, she hadn't heard anything about her family since she had been kidnapped. She was worried that her family had given up on her still being alive, but if she knew John she knew he wouldn't give up on her.

Micheal only responded with a small hum as she thanked him, which was more than to be expected of him, considering how he normaly always flat out ingored others excistence. And like usuall, he stayed silenet as he treated and cleaned her wound, not even halting for a second when she asked about her family. Of course, Micheal couldn't care less about the royal family whatsoever, but Odette... He knew he'd only be lying to himself if he said he didn't care about her. And telling her the news about her family, would surely jsut break the princess heart more. Well for now, that could wait... So, he stayed quiet at the question, and just stood back up once he finshed treating her wounds. Grabbing hold of her arm, he gently pulled her up on her feet before turning around, gesturing for her to follow him as he head towards the door.

Odette frowned as Michael didn't answer her question, which was at the forefront of her mind. It made her worry even more, what if something had happened to her family? An invasion? Or what if something closer to home had happened? Like her father becoming sick? He wasn't in the best of health and with the Claude constantly hovering, she worried. "Where are we going?" She asked as he pulled her up and led her towards the door. Normally he wasn't this cryptic, which made her curiosity grow even more. What was he planning anyway? He wouldn't hurt her....not after cleaning her wounds. That would defeat the entire purpose, and Michael well she liked him.

"To get you cleaned up," was Micheal's curt asnwear, keeping his gaze ahead of them. As they left the room, he then suddenly turned back around and faced her, but only for a moment as he then suddenly wrapped a blindfold around her head. "I know you're smart, so don't take it off," came his demand, his tone harsh enough for the princess to hear the warning should she dare remove it. Without waiting for her response, her took her by the arm again and lead her outside. After a couple minutes of wlaking, he removed the blindfold from her eyes. They ahd reached the lake. "Get yourself cleaned up, I'll leave the clean clothes here for you when you're done," he mutterd, putting the clothes down on a rock by the shore. With that said, he turned his back on her and sat down a further bit away, placing some weapons down by his side as he began to clean them.

Odette didn't protest as he blindfolded her, she knew it would be a better decision on her part to silently let him do what he wanted. "Ok." She said quietly as she allowed herself to be led outside, her steps were a little unsure as she wasn't entirely sure where they were headed until she heard the sound of water and he removed her blindfold. She blinked in surprise when she saw the lake in front of them, "I oh thank you so much!" She said with a wide smile, it would feel so much better to become clean once again. She was almost all too excited at the change, she smiled even more when she saw the clean clothes that he had gotten for her. He really was thoughtful and she felt even better then she had in weeks, her hands quickly divested herself of her clothes. He had turned his back to give her some privacy and she was thankful for his thoughtfulness, it wasn't often that most people would be that considerate. Once she was completely naked, she dove into the water and enjoyed the feeling of all the dirt washing away from her skin.

Hearing her hurridely getting in the water, Micheal cast a glance over his shoulder, as if to make sure she wouldn't drown herself or something, and then casually went back to cleaning up his own things as he saw her blodne head peak out from the water surface. Normally, neither he or Jospeh cared for their prisoners and hostages... But the princess would now be stuck there with them for a while, and as much as Michela ahd tried to denied it to himself, he had started to grow a certian foundness of her, even from whene he had possed as her 'bodyguard' before the kidnapping. Maybe that's why he suddenly felt a hint of sympathy for her... Afterall, he's been in a simialr sitatuion once, a long, long time ago...

Odette started scrubbing her hair, the dirt coming away as she did so. She was relieved to finally have the chance to bathe, something that she had missed the past few weeks. Her body was slowly feeling more clean as she finished scrubbing her hair and went to scrub her body. It was so refreshing to get all the dirt and grime off of herself. A few more minutes later and Odette decided that she was as clean as she'd ever be and left the lake. She hurried over and dried herself of with the towel that had been provided before changing into the gown that Michael had gotten her. It was a little loose but Odette didn't care, they were clean and she felt better now then she had in weeks. Her hands toweled her hair dry as she moved to sit next to Michael. "Thank you Michael." She said and on impulse kissed him on the cheek. "I really feel much better now." She said, a small smile on her face as she studied him.

Micheal still didnät turn around to look as he ehard ehr get out of the water, apparently not worried in the least that she might try and run away. No, both of them knew there was really no chance for her, should she try and do it anyway. He still didn't react or showed any hints of caring as he felt ehr walking over to him, and simply contuiend with his own task. And then, she actully did manage to surprsie him, as she placed a quick, sweet kiss on his cheek. He didn't really react much, aside from turning his head and looking at her in that expresionless way of his. "Thanking your kidnapper who decived you. You must be feeling really lonely," he smirked then, pushing himself up on his feet. There wa sno bite or venom in his tone, in fact there was a hint of friendly teasing in it, surprisngly enough. "That, or you're really 'easy'." Gesturing for her to get up as well, he put two fingers in his mouth and whistled, his hourse the next second comming out of the forest and running towards them,

Odette blushed and tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear. "Well I don't feel as icky before, so that's two points in your favor." She said with a small smile up at him. "And I am not easy! I mean, that's not what you think of me right?" She asked with sudden concern. Her thoughts went to that night with that unknown man who had taken her. She bit down on her bottom lip and looked up as Michael whistled for his horse. "Where are we going?" She asked curiously. While the two would talk, they never actually went anywhere much less on horseback. She had missed riding, her thoughts went to her own horse Dale. She wondered if he was being well taken care of in her absence.
