"So, tell me Mai, from what Varon told me it sounds like Mokuba's friends just showed up. How is it you have food and drinks all ready for them?" Joey asked.
"Well actually they came because I asked them too."
"Why would you go and do something like that?"
"Mokuba looked so sad and lonely. I knew he wanted to play with his friends but he was afraid the king would forbid him to go over there and his friends had told him they were afraid to come here."
"So how did you convince them?"
"Well it was only Muran I called and asked him to at least consider coming over. That Master Mokuba really needed his friends. He said he'd think about it. He called back an hour later and said he'd like to come over but his friends were coming over. I told him to bring them and I'd serve lunch."
"Weren't you worried that the king might get mad at you?"
"Not really. The king worries about Master Mokuba and I knew that if the kid was happy he would be happy as well."
"That was actually smart thinking."
Jen had been listening at the door and decided small talk was as far as they should get! So, she hid as she saw Mai pick up the tray of glasses and start to head out. After Mai walked out she slipped in and over to Joey.
"Hi, there." She said in a low voice. She learned it from watching her sister Zoë when she hit on guys.
Joey turned around and was surprised to see a girl about the same age as Mokuba standing there. He had thought all of Mokuba's friends would be boys. "Um hi, can I get you something?"
"Yeah you."
"Wha…What did you say?" Joey asked backing up.
Jen approached him. "I said, I want you; I may look like a sweet innocent little kid but I'm not. I've learned a lot watching my older sister. I know a lot more than you think I do." She walked over and ran a hand down his chest. "Perhaps I even know more than you do."
"I…I doubt that."
"Perhaps we should go somewhere more private and find out."
"Ah, aren't you a little young?"
"Not really. I told you I'm older than you think."
"Really and just how old are you?"
"I'm 11, what about you?"
"I'm 18, I'm way too old for you."
"What difference do ages make? My sister hits on guys twice as old as she is."
"Yeah, well despite that you're still just a little kid."
"I told you age doesn't matter."
"But it does I mean what would people think if I started dating an 11-year-old?"
"No one would think much of it. I've heard that in some kingdoms kids are killed if they aren't married by my age. I'm just getting a late start at it."
Joey tried to move away but she latched on to his waist and refused to let go.
'So playing hard to get are we. Well then we'll just try something else I've seen my sister do when she really wants to get a guys attention.' Jen thought.
Then slowly moved her hand up his thigh making Joey very nervous. Then she remembered a few things she'd seen her sister do when she thought no one was home. She started to unbutton his pants. This instantly snapped Joey back to reality. He violently pulled away from her.
"What the hell do you think you're doing?"
"Aw, come on don't be like that. I've watched my sister do this, lots of times. I myself have never done it but I'm willing to try. I don't know what you call it but I put my tongue on your…"
"Someone should wash your mouth out with soap!"
"Why I've watched what happens. I've seen the men enjoy it." Jen said.
As Joey tried to move away, he tripped on his own feet trying to get away from her. She instantly was on top of him. She leaned down and kissed him.
Joey tried to push her off but she wrapped her arms around his chest and her legs around his. Joey kept trying but was afraid to be anymore forceful for fear of hurting her. He broke the kiss and she started to kiss down his neck when Mai returned.
"Joey, what the hell are you doing?"
Joey was able to take the distraction, get Jen off of him and stand up much to her disappointment.
"It's not what you think Mai."
"I'm thinking how disgusted I am that you would take advantage of a little girl."
"What? No, you don't understand. It's not like that. See she came on to me and…"
"You expect me to believe this sweet little girl came on to you and a big, strong man like yourself was scared of a little girl and let her dominate you."
"Well I know it sounds far-fetched but…"
Mai just glared at him. "Let's go, of all the nerve taking advantage of a little girl." Mai said grabbing Jen's arm and started towards the door.
At the door, Jen stops and looks back at Joey. Then she blows him a kiss before Mai pulls her out the door.
Joey just shakes his head. He couldn't believe he let himself get manipulated by and 11-year-old. He grabbed the food and headed out.

Back with Seto, he wasn't having much better luck.
"Talana, what are you doing here?" Varon asked.
"Well I realized mother was right. There's no reason why you couldn't watch at least Sami and I could help the king's brother. He's already agreed to it. We were just working out the details."
"We need to talk now!" Varon said.
"Fine, if you'll excuse me I'll be right back."
"Sami, you wait here."
"Okay mommy."
Then Steffi walked up crying.
"What's wrong?" Natalia asked.
"I hurt my knee."
"Oh it'll be okay sweetie. Do you have a restroom we could freshen up in?" Natalia asked Seto.
"Of course. Aiki here will help you. She's one of the head maids around here and can help you with anything you need." Seto said.
"Thank you."
"No problem." Seto said.
