After spending a good bit of time in the evening taking care of his young bride and empowering his amulet in order to properly suit her as a husband, Gregor woke up to an extremely pleasant experience. Eventually, he found himself holding his bride in his arms, feeling a great deal closer and more comfortable in her presence, admiring her beautiful form openly.
Listening to her words, he gave a slight sigh. "I suppose..." he remarked. "Tempting though it may be to spend all day in bed with you, we should also make an appearance for the sake of the wedding guests. Besides... I don't think you got a very good look at the palace yesterday." Dressing himself, he gazed at the princess, wondering what sort of attire she'd be wearing for the day. He allowed her to get dressed and wrapped an arm around her waist, squeezing her close to him. "The closer we appear, the more satisfying it will be to those who see us," he used as his excuse to let the girl cuddle against him as they walked.
