Neil was certainly happy for the privacy, and he thanked Rashim as the man departed. The scoundrel admittedly was very hungry, but he only wanted to eat a small portion at the moment. He could get his fill later, but his mind was certainly on other things at the moment. He and Calliope had run and run and finally they were at a place where they could relax, and he didn't really see much danger in these Seven Princes, even if they expected some sort of subservience. 

What was on Neil's mind was Calliope. He saw the cues, the look, the smile within the veil, the subtle movements on her body. He didn't have to be told twice, and he sat on a comfortable chair on the table, and he pulled her own up very close, extravagantly presenting to her with a wave of his hands. She took the seat with a smirk and plopped down on it, plucking a grape out of the mounds of fruit and chewing on it greedily. 

"One could get used to this," Neil remarked, eating some of the steaming chicken and fried vegetables. His stomach thanked him, and he washed it down an aged red vintage, letting him truly take the edge off. The bath, the comfortable clothes, and the food were just what he needed. As Calliope ate her fill, taking some honey fritters and a bit of the pork, Neil presented her with more grapes. He hung it before her eyes, and she snatched it out of his hands with her lips, which he noticed were delectably soft. 

"Does this count as my buying you dinner?" She asked him smugly, leaning closer and giving him a marvelous view of her plump bosom. He felt his mouth not heeding his call for a moment, but he tried to steady himself. 

"Honestly I...I was starting to think you weren't interested..." He admittedly, and then looked into her eyes somewhat suspiciously, though a smile played on his lips. He looked every bit the dashing bandit prince in his attire, and the smile accentuated it. "This isn't just a trick to kill me again, is it?" 

It was clearly halfway a joke, but he also was somewhat intimidated by her. It was strange, but it only turned him on more. He'd never been with a woman that scared him and he quite liked it.
