Sleeping gas or any other invasive gas is bad for her health." Therius tried to reason with the Akkadian's monarchs.

Queen Ygrit squinted her eyes in disgust. "Did you really sleep with that wench under her control?"

Therius shrugged nonchalantly. "I don't know. I don't remember. However, I am not a saint. If she wanted to sleep with me, I probably did it."
