“Never heard of it before?” the prince guessed quite correctly.
“Never,” I replied in short.
“Good. You’ll at least learn something new tonight. I’ll teach you,” the prince offered excitedly.
I stared at the board before I directed my gaze and started staring at the prince’s handsome face. When he brought me to his living quarters and then to his bedroom, I honestly didn’t think that he was seriously going to be playing a game with me in the most literal sense of the word.
