Sebastian couldn't help but smirk a little at her reaction. He knew damn well what title it was she didn't like. He'd not meant to twist the knife too much, though, instead leaning on the princess comment. Which had a fantastic effect, better than he expected. But he didn't linger, retreating to a more respectable distance.
He chuckled.
Much to his surprise, she seemed keen on the bath idea after all. He couldn't help but give a laugh at her commentary.

Stay here long enough, and so will you.She'd pulled away, then, moving over toward the tub he'd pointed out. Sebastian watched as she filled it with ease, hesitating just a moment as she went about heating the water.
If she really was going to take a bath, he was hardly going to allow her to put dirty clothes back on. He pursed his lips a moment in thought, before turning toward the door.
I'll be back momentarily.It would also allow her the privacy to divest herself of her remaining clothes and get into the tub without an audience. Or, rather, a human audience.
