"Certainly Sir, I'll return shortly with your drinks as well as the itemised menu for tonight's meal." The waitress smiled politely before walking to the kitchen to fetch some Andurial red.
"So….the Captain can't come?" Frost asked, his brow arched in a knowing manner.
"I guess not." Khione smirked in reply, avoiding eye contact with her date.
It was obvious that this whole thing was planned but Frost chose not to burst the bubble, feigning a degree of innocence and belief in the unlikely circumstances that would see the Captain of the SS. Gwienfieldal or even his representative fail to attend a dinner with a member of the realm's royal family.
Honestly he was looking forward to picking at the Captain's wealth of knowledge but getting to enjoy a truly private dinner with the woman he was courting was more than enough to make up for such a minor disappointment.
The trade in wordy inquiries ended there, Frost then took the chance to observe their surroundings.
