"What do you expect? For your handsome prince to swoop in and save you? That's not how it works." He takes her by the chin with a smile.
"Something occurs to me. You take someone away like you? Hide them? Spend enough time away they'll just assume the shadows got you, or that you were sent away. Sent home perhaps. You disappeared. Died. They'll stop looking for you." He smiles then, almost through a sneer.
"And then they'll move on. I offer you the easiest way to get through this. You refuse and you disappear. You refuse and I make your friends disappear."
