A Guilded Cage
The first day had been spent wandering outside around the grounds of the palace. Helena had a hard time sitting still and being confined to a certain area had made it harder. Dinner had been tense, but Helena had been polite and on her best behavior. She had even put a filter between her brain and mouth to not offend her host.

The second day she spent wandering inside the palace. She had to admit that it was very beautiful. She could almost imagine herself as a princess and living in a place like this. Though as beautiful as it was, it was still a cage. A week could be a very long time.

Helena walked slowly down a long hallway and looked at the masterpieces that adorned the walls.

"I would like to go back and retire to my room if you don't mind," she said. "It's been a long day and night and I am feeling a little tired."

"Very well. Shall I have a bath prepared for you as well?" he asks.

Helena smiled. "A hot bath would be lovely," she said. Why did he have to be so nice to her? She wanted him to be mean or cruel so she didn't have to like him.

"Then a hot bath you shall have." Black Adam says, as the carriage pulls away.

"I will say again that you look beautiful tonight."

"Thank you and thank you," she said with the smile still on her face.

"Thank you for the wonderful evening. I thoroughly enjoyed myself."

"I did as well. I expected you to stay hidden in your room and not speak to me at all, but you have presently surprised me.

Tomorrow, I ask that you stand by my side at the discussion with my Education Minister and the Teachers' Coalition. Will you?" Adam asks.

"Of course," she said. "You did ask for my assistance with educational matters and I agreed to give it."

The carriage ferries them back to the palace, where Adam demands that a bath be drawn for Helena immediately.

His servants hasten to obey. By the time she retires upstairs, her bath is ready, along with a plate of fruits and cheeses, and a bottle of red wine with a note.

Thank you for a wonderful evening. -Adam

Helena read the note and sighed. She grabbed the bottle of wine and headed for the bath.
