The dark prince grinned with slick lips as his words materialized before them, filling goblets and plates of sparkling gold. “Stare as long as you like,” he added with a silent laugh. “I have all the time in the world.” He leaned back into his chair of plush velvet. “So tell me, what business would a thing like you possibly have with me?”
