Cleopatra lounged on her couch, wiggling
her toes to the sound of the flute. Julius Caesar sat on a chair close by. He
sipped wine from a silver goblet before continuing the story of his latest
conquest. Cleopatra yawned. She was tired of him regaling
her with his tales. Blood and glory. It was all he talked about.
She clapped, and the musician stopped
playing. “Leave us,” she said.
Caesar leaned close. “Are you not well,
my queen?”
“I’m bored.”
He stroked her hand. “Shall we play a
game?”
“Do you know Hounds and Jackals?”
He smiled. “Teach me.”
