Kyera tilted her head looking at him a bit curiously . She couldn't help but smile softly at his chuckle, though she wasn't sure what emotions were behind it . Clovis leaned forward and claimed her lips his hand at the back of her head pulling her in as he devoured her . He sucked on her bottom lip, his tongue delved into her mouth tasting her thoroughly, giving a new meaning to tongue lashing before releasing her . Kyera was panting on his lap, shocked by the sudden passion that kiss had conveyed . Her body trembling inside, making her blush as she shifted a little . Clovis couldn't help but smirk in self satisfaction at his results .
"Well, Wifey it seems there is a simple choice . Teach me to see through the shadows . " Clovis suggested wrapping his arms around her, holding her close while they spoke .
"We have less than twenty four hours . I can't teach you to see through illusion that fast . " Kyera replied shaking her head slowly . "Most knights can't see through a shadow illusion on earth more or less in their realm . The few who do spend years training . Verone was around me when we were little so it was second nature… even he is easily tricked by my illusions . "

Clovis nodded realizing she had a point, this wasn't simple or everyone would know how . Then he got an idea . "Be my eyes . "
"What do you mean?" Kyera asked meeting his eyes a bit wary . She had a feeling she knew where this was going, but she couldn't have been more wrong .
"Go with me . Surely your Grandmother would support us going together so I can meet my Father in law . " Clovis pointed out as he let her go . The garden was getting a bit more crowded and he knew she wasn't the most comfortable person with public affection . However to his surprise, she only shifted so her head was on his shoulder .
"We can suggest it . Perhaps suggest a frost wedding at the festival, a tie in the world of my people . With your father in control of our first marriage document it might be best that isn't the only record of our union . " Kyera pointed out, slowly forming a plan .
"You mean a actual wedding, no political crap or wedding crashers?" he asked with a chuckle . "Is that possible?"
"Point . However it is much harder to crash our weddings . There isn't a guest list or a sit down ceremony . It would consist of signing a marriage document with royal witnesses then perform the ritual before my people . A dance, nothing more . " Kyera explained chuckling as she remembered all the words and bowing they had done during their actual wedding . Clovis looked curious .
"A dance ritual?" he asked honestly intrigued by this concept .
"Yes, one of the bride's family plays the tune, while the bride and groom dance together to symbolize their hearts dance to the beat of the same drum . " Kyera explained the custom without much trouble . In all honesty she had always loved the simple elegance of their ceremonies .
"Then let's do it . " Clovis agreed as Kyera finally slid off his lap .
"Well then, my mate, let us go speak with Grandest Mother . " Kyera replied smiling at him . There was true excitement in her eyes, so much prettier than when he first asked for her hand . There was pure joy and impatience in her as she took his hand .
"Well won't there need to be some private dance lessons?" he teased and Kyera chuckled at him . Merriment dancing in her bright eyes .
"You have a lot to learn about our culture . Our rituals are about what comes naturally, not planning and memorization . Come on . " she tugged impatiently at his hand . Clovis grinned ear to ear and followed his eager wife back into the main hall to seek the Matriarch .
