A huge ballroom took up the entire fourth floor.
“Why not have this on the first floor?” Leona asked. “People are going to walk through your personal areas to get here.”
He shook his head and pointed at the other end of the room where another set of double doors stood. “That is an elevator from the rear of the house. People will come down a different road than you used, which will deposit them to that elevator.”
“You thought of everything,” I whispered and pulled him down with a hand on the back of his head to kiss him.
“You forgot the one thing I requested,” Nico objected.
Rhys pulled away from me and smiled at his friend. “That area is underground. I figured that it was safer to have it there.”
“What?” I asked.
“Nico’s lab,” Rhys replied.
Nico took off in search of his new playground.
“I’m going to check out my room,” Leona said. “Thor, can you come help me rearrange some of my furniture?”
“Sure,” he said.
I gave her a knowing smile and she winked at me before trotting off with Thor on her heels.
“Mira,” Rhys said loudly.
“Yes, Prince?” a disembodied voice replied.
“Ballroom music, please,” he requested.
“Acknowledged,” the voice said.
Music began playing, and Rhys swept me into a dance around the room.
“You made it a smart house?” I asked.
He nodded, continuing to lead me in a dance I remembered learning from my father as a young girl. Having my memories back was great, because I remembered all of my ballroom lessons.
“She’s programmed to do lots of things. Try it out,” he offered.
“Mira?” I called.
“Yes, Princess?” she replied.
“Play my favorite song,” I ordered, a smirk on my face, thinking I had thought of something he wouldn’t have programmed into her.
“Acknowledged,” she replied.
My favorite song began playing.
I halted our dance and blinked back tears.
Rhys caressed my cheek and whispered, “Welcome home, Sunshine.”
