She watched him. Inner turmoil. Was indeed. A great thing. And it was while. He was doing. His thinking. She called. To Jeremiah. Thinking. Perhaps. This game of hers. Could possibly. Get out of control. There were certain things. That she refused. To do. Though she hoped. And doubted. The one across. From her could pinpoint. What they were. It was not. Something. That most. People thought of. And then. Some of them. Were easy things. That she would not. Do because. Almost anyone. Would refuse them. Still though. This game. Could go. Just about. Anywhere. And in anyway. It would all. Be interesting. To see what. He would do. With his own turn.
The king went down. A noble Sacrifice. He called it. And that was. Probably indeed. What it was. But still. It was interesting. To see him lose. Especially. When he had certainly. Just basked. In the glow. Of the victory. Earned moments ago. It was her turn. But as it was her turn. Jeremiah showed up. Answering her mental call. Taking a chair. He turned it around. And plopped down.

Not yet. ~If you wish it, soon it will be.~ she answered. Bix waited. For Gabriel's answer. Curious. What he would decide. If it was to call Jeremiah off. That would be easy. He could wait in the hall. But would he really. Waste a dare. On her bodyguard of sorts.
