Seeing Talon Aspen again and in my home would be an addition to my very much crappy day but unlike Roman, I tuck my dislike for the crown prince beneath the fake smile I very readily present. "It's a pleasure to see you again. Talon" I say.

If he can sense my dislike, he does not comment on it. "Won't you let me in?" He cocks his head, his lips lifting to an half smile, gesturing to the opened the door.

"Please come in." I answer with practiced politeness. He walks in smugly like he owns the place. I leave the door halfly open and silently pray that today...
