Hidden breakfast

She didn’t like being called royal, or apparently any of his attempted compliments.  Oh bother, it was so much nicer when he found those that ate up flattery.  Some would believe his words, some were merely amused by his words but either way it seemed to get him far enough.

Bait offered her quite the dramatic hurt expression at her words.  “Miss, even if I did not find you beautiful I would not try such a thing.” Bait turned to head a bit farther into the forest, but having his head turned to her, “Foxes tend to avoid upsetting wolves, and I am not dim enough to be the one that doesn’t.” Bait hopped down from his perch, and then up again to perch on a higher rock.  “Also, I keep to myself for the most part and at times that gets rather boring.  So I would welcome a bit of company for a while.  All the better if the company is pretty.”

What would best to get her to relax? Bait would go with a few different variants to see if anything took her fancy more.  There was the reminder of beauty mentioned, logic over who was stronger and even a good amount of truth in his growing bored alone.  Any reaction she had would be fine, as long as she reacted the game was still in play. "The names Bait by the way, might I ask yours fair maiden?"
