"He used to be, in a manner of speaking" She said, looking off to the side, and then standing, "A break sounds nice, for a little while," she more needed a moment to collect herself, thinking of maekar made her equal parts angry and sad.

He put the brush aside for a while. "Would you like some wine? Food? You could get dressed again for a moment if you like, princes/. Or..." He stepped closer to her, gazing openly at her body, before he stepped close and kissed her full on the lips, his hands reaching down to her bum to pull her close.

Rhaena let herself be kissed for a time, about as far away from in the mood as was possible to be at that, and as the kiss went on, she felt nothing.
With enough force to push him away without shoving him, so he was still fairly close to her, she moved him back to arms length, "Thank you," she said, and turned and walked over to the food, taking a nut and popping it into her mouth.

He shrugged and poured wine, then walked to the window so as to admire her full length. "Ah, if only you could stay forever."

"I doubt you would want me forever, time has a way of bringing out the worst in people," she asked, clearly implying his favour would go with her appearance.
"Let us just enjoy our time together, and let whatever happens happen," She was bored with beating about the bush.

"Of course. But you can't blame me for trying, can you? You're too beautiful to resist." He grinned and downed the wine in a few mouthfuls, before refilling it. "You must be used to men chasing after you."

"I cannot blame you." She replied, thinking his flattery was getting a little to thick to be genuine. "Would it surprise you if I told you no?" she smiled a bit more, "I have recently spent a long time away from court, and to be honest, I think most of the men at court are too intimidated to try."

"Are they? More fool them, then. I am not intimidated. But then, we have no princesses in Tyrosh. I cannot believe nobody wanted to chase you, they certainly must." He toyed with his wine glass, letting it gleam in the sunlight. "If you want me, you have only to ask."

"Perhaps I just have not noticed them, I am not really bothered in sheep following me, I'd rather have men standing before me." She commented, looking him up and down, like she was weighing him up. "Should we continue?"

"Certainly, if you are not cold. I can light a fire if you need me to. I'll be warm, but I want my model to be comfortable."

"You gaze is warm enough," she said with a raised eyebrow, commenting on the open appreciation he kept throwing her way, "Your lovely city is plenty warm compared to King's Landing."

"Is it? I'm glad."
He sat down again and began to continue filling in the basic colours.
"If you like, I could come paint you in Kings Landing one day."

"If you like, I am sure the king would be glad to receive a foreign noble," she said, smiling at the idea of her father speaking with Ennio. "We have a lot less lovely views in kings landing, but there are done beautiful parts of the country."

"Are there? Perhaps you would care to tell me where those are? I have only ever seen your home on a map and I really can't picture it at all. I know you have mountains. That's not something I have ever seen," he told her.

"I can show you, if you ever visit Westeros, " she said, and then looked directly at him with a smile, "We have many rooms with many doors also,"

"I look forward to it. You will make a wonderful queen, I know. Will you let your subjects see you naked?" He teased.

Rhaena couldn't help but think he missed her meaning, she had been talking about the previous night when a secret passage had been found in her brothers room, but she did not feel like expanding, "Sheep spook easily," she said, with a grin, "I do not think most of the realm could handle seeing their queen naked, not with their delicate Andal sensibilities."

"Oh ddear. That is quite horrible," he said. "I would hate to be so prudish, myself. Were I one of your subjects, I would cheer heartily if I saw my queen naked."
He considered a moment and grinned mischievously..
"I dare you to step outside this room like that."

"Finish in good time and I will take your dare," she said, winking at him, and stretching slightly, her body going long and lithe as she did, before returning to position.

"I will," he said. He watched her openly for a moment before continuing to paint. A couple of hours later, he had the basic image done and some of the detail but there was more to do. "Take a look," he offered.

Rhaena got up and stretched again, like a cat waking from a nap, and walked over, unabashed, to look at the painting. She hoped it was good.

It was good and while her features were a bit vague at this stage, she could certainly see herself in the portrait. Ennio seemed to have a natural talent for perspective and shape and the colours were well mixed as well.

"This is surprisingly good, " she said, shocked at the quality, and smiling,"you have quite the talent, shame your father will not let you nurture it."

"He thinks it a vanity," Ennio sighed. "`But it is what it is. I manage well enough, I believe. The portrait shall be quite splendid when it is done."

"He did not think so when you painted him though," she remembered, thinking it typical, "I almost regret telling you to keep it now."
