The palace was huge. There had to at least be one or two hundred rooms.

The gardens were my favorite. They were exotic. They had so many plants it was like a man made paradise.

"Can that be right now?" I asked.

"You don't fear me." He asked.

"Should I?" I asked.

"Well yes. I ca n end your life with the blink of an eye." He said.

I shrugged and looked at him.

"I'm not afraid to die. I welcome death with scons and tea." I said.

He looked at me. Then out of the blue he threw back his head and laughed.

"Yes. I think I will have much fun with you." He chuckled.

"You seem upset. Did you fall in love with a man of another race?" He asked intrigued.

Now it was my turn to laugh. And laugh I did.

"I could care less what that law v said. Love doesn't exist and if  it  does in not doing it. Plus marriage isn't in my plans. Sorry to burst your bubble." I said.

"Now that sounds like a challenge. Making you fail in love with me " he am smiled.

"You're Highness challenge excepted." I smiled.
