Korra squirmed in her long blue dress. "Padre, must I wear this awful thing?"
Tonraq laughed. "Mi hija, it is tradition, you must. Now, please, come with me."
Korra followed, looking downcast. "Fine."
The two, joined by Senna, walked through the hallways. They paused in front of the doors and then exited. A loud roar echoed as they appeared in front of the crowd.
Korra waved slightly. She turned towards her father. "Now, may I be excused for a moment? I hate all the attention."
Her father nodded and Korra moved through the doorway and back to her room. She slumped onto a couch and sighed.
"Trouble in paradise?" A voice called out.
Korra jerked. "Who's there?! Come out. Now."
"Oh, It's just little me." A man with wavy hair wearing a long coat and black pants stepped out from the shadows.
"Tahno!" Korra shouted, as she hugged him. "You hijo de perra! You freaked me out!"
"Just thought it was time for me to gather up my valor and come and visit." Tahno captured her lips in sweet embrace.
Korra's eyes floated shut. A knock sounded at the door and they flew open.
"Princess Korra?" A servants voice called.
"Tahno, you have to go. Please." Korra broke the kiss.
"I think I'll wait here for you, okay, la belleza?" Tahno pressed one more kiss to her lips and melted back in the darkness.
Korra smiled and fixed her hair and went to the door. "I'm coming." She called.
"You will be." Tahno whispered.
