"Politics bore me." she said.

"Then I'm afraid your time as queen will be rather dull." He said, dismissing her in his head as he turned back to his work, this time on a policy that would better hold noblemen accountable for crimes by giving people who take and give bribes more weighty punishments along with giving inquisitions more power to look into cases of bribery. Most people would find it rather dull, but to him, it couldn't be more interesting.

"Oh, do stop it and pay me some bloody attention!" Aria said, slapping the pen, papers, and ink out of his hands.

Ru frowned, picking up the notebook and carefully straightening its crumpled pages. He then moved on to the pen and papers, carefully cleaning his materials. Once he had finished he straightened up, looking Ariana dead in the eyes. "Look, this is very important to me, so I apologize if I cannot pay you enough attention, but this has my priority right now."

"Honestly, you care more about paperwork than your continued survival. It's pathetic." she snapped.

He rolled his eyes. "This paperwork will be relevant far longer than me, so yes, I value it above myself. I apologize for placing the good of my country over your need for entertainment. If it would please you, though, I will close the book and talk to you." His voice dripped with sarcasm.

"Thank you, dearest." she said, moving over and sitting next to Ru, sliding into his lap.

Ru sighed, expelling the air from the deepest reaches of his lungs. This was going to be a long honeymoon. He set the notebook, ink, and pens down the way a new mother would set her baby in its crib, with the utmost care and gentleness. "Is there anything you'd like to talk about?"

"Well, nothing in particular. I'm more about doing." she said.

Ru pushed her off his lap, settling into a more comfortable position. "Then what do you want to do? I have work to do, you know." He reached over for his notebook. If Ariana wasn't going to do anything, then he was going to do his job.

"Yeah, I was intending to tear up your notes, but I see that isn't happening." Ariana said.

Ru squeezed the bridge of his nose, cutting off the pressure headache that was building behind his eyes. "Is there anything you'd like to do that won't cause me immense suffering?"

"Shag, but you seem opposed to that." Ariana said.

Oh god, this again. Pain pounded behind his eyes, scoffing at his best efforts to keep it contained. "Based on what you've told me, that falls under the category of 'causing me immense suffering'" He used air quotes to accentuate the point. Besides, even if he were going to have sex with Ariana, they certainly wouldn't be doing it on a carriage. He had standards after all.

"And your fear is delicious. Fear, but mixed with the tiniest hint of arousal, if I'm any judge." she said. This banter was more stimulating than anything she could do in bed, however. Ariana always liked a good argument.

Ru shrugged. He didn't really fear Ariana, at least, not in the way he feared other people. This was softer, tinged with something he couldn't quite name. "What can I say, I've loved more than my fair share of dangerous women. I suspect it's something to do with that." Nevermind the fact that he had always been more than a little infatuated with danger. Ariana didn't need to learn that. Ever.

"Well, I do plan to make this evening count." she said. Suddenly, Ariana pulled Ru forward into an almost violent kiss, devouring his mouth hungrily.

Ru gave a muffled gasp, pulling out of the kiss with an indignant noise. He scooted as far away from Ariana as he could manage, shutting down the part of him that was begging for more. "What are you doing!?" He croaked, placing a hand on his chest to soothe his rapid breathing.

"No idea. I'm rather impulsive, my apologies." Ariana said.

Ru's eyebrows knitted together with outrage. "You have no idea!?" He screamed, outrage heavy in his voice. He let his head thunk against the carriage wall, staring at the ceiling instead of his wife. What…How…Why was she like this? Why had she decided that making out with him was a good idea? What the fuck? He picked up his notebook and began writing his laws, intent on ignoring Ariana for the rest of the ride. Maybe even for the rest of his life.

"As I said, I'm a bit impulsive. Relax, I'm not into you whatsoever. I'm quite the opposite, in truth." she sighed, leaning against the wall.

"Yeah, that explains why you tried to make out with me," Ru muttered, flipping the page and scratching down some loose ideas for moral reforms. He was glad he'd brought a couple pots of ink because he wasn't going to be looking up for a while. The public wasn't going to pass laws on itself.

"Fine, you really want to know?" Ariana asked.

Ru lifted his head from the papers, a look that clearly said 'try me, bitch' on his face. "Go ahead. I'm all ears." He set the notebook by his side, giving her his total attention. This was going to be good.

"Okay, I normally don't tell anyone things like this, but here goes. I'm going crazy with lust for you, and it isn't my fault, it's yours." Ariana said snappishly, but entirely serious.

Ru laughed. She couldn't be serious. This girl had made it abundantly clear that she hated him. And now she was saying she was mad with lust? Sure. He rolled his eyes. "Don't lie to me, Ariana. What's the real reason? Do you want to humiliate me? Gain power over me?" He did his very best not to notice how attractive she was right now. It wasn't working super well so he amped up his anger and disbelief, trying to cover the part of him that was 3 seconds away from jumping back into making out.

"No, actually. I had just started my Mating Cycle-don't ask, seriously, just don't-and remember? You may now kiss the bride? That was you imprinting on me. So now I'm going crazy with lust for you, trying to hold every impulse back, and it's your fault." she said with contempt.

Ru scrunched up his nose in disgust. He couldn't believe she was forcibly in lust with him. Gods. This was a huge bump in his plans. He questioned the first thing he could wrap his mind around. "Imprinting on you? Like a baby duck?" It may have been a bit insensitive, especially when Ariana was far more dangerous than a baby duck. She was far more dangerous than anything.

"More like making yourself the only suitable partner this body can mate. It'll kick off in a month or two, if I don't die first. Anyways, it's your fault, you should have researched, or at least asked if there was anything important you would need to know about my biology before you marry me!" Ariana half shouted.

Ru flinched. He had intended to do some research on his wife's race, but had put it off in favor of working on what he was lovingly referring to as 'the ruling laws' which would allow him to occupy more policymaking positions as king. "So, do you need to… to have sex with me?" He hoped not, already half planning for the unpleasant eventuality.
