I was interrupted by an approaching solider, he stopped and saluted Sertoff.
“What is it?” Sertoff glared at him.
The soldiers eyes never left Sertoff, “Sir, Emperor Kilji has invited the assassin to dinner.”
Sertoff narrowed his eyes, “Oh he did, did he.” He then turned his look to me.
I returned the glare, “Don’t look at me, you know I hate that guy. Tell him I’m not going.”
Daemon sat up straighter, “I don’t think you understand. When he invites you, you go.”
“And I don’t think the Emperor understands that I go where I want to go.” I tossed back.
“Hey it’z jest dinner, what harm kin come outta dinner?” Jamie tried to make peace.
“Shut up Jamie, you don’t know.” my best bickering voice.
“Well I do.” Sertoff stood and dusted himself, then he turned to the solider. “Tell the Emperor that Jasylin has graciously accepted his offer and will be escorted, by me.”
The solider bowed and returned to the castle.
“Great!” I nodded my head, this is all I need. Well at least now, I have my sword and with Sertoff there… Well it could go either of two ways, it can go well with him protecting me. Or it can end up like things normally do when I’m involved.
