"I am sorry Charlynn, but I have already accepted Prince Clarke as my Master here. We are a long way from Egypt and dispite what Oracle White might think, his reach is simply not that long anymore.

She opens her eyes and looks at the childe of a man she hates. "I will set up your meeting as you have requested and I will follow any orders you give that do not directly oppose any Prince Clarke may give me. But know that he is the one I have pledged my loyalty to."
